This peptide is histone H4 (1-25) with acetylation at Lys12. It is biotinylated through a C-terminal GSGSK linker. Lys12 acetylation is necessary for the methylation of Lys9 of histone H3 in the formation of heterochromatin. Provided at >95% peptide purity, this peptide was dissolved in distilled water at 1 mg/ml and re-lyophilized to powder form.
