AnaSpec, the world’s largest provider of on-demand GO®
peptides is pleased to offer a wide selection of Histone H1, H2A, H2B, H3 and
H4 peptides, especially the H3 peptides. The rapidly expanding Histone GO®
Peptides now include citrullinated sequences in addition to sequences that are
acetylated, mono-, di- or tri-methylated, phosphorylated and biotinylated.
Histone H1, H2A, H2B,
H3 & H4 Modifications (with or without biotin):
· Citrullinated
· Acetylated
· Methylated (mono, di, tri)
· Phosphorylated
Chromatin
exist either as the transcriptionally active euchromatin or as the transcriptionally
repressed heterchromatin state.1 Post-translational modifications
of histone “tails” (amino termini) have been implicated in the conversion between
the two states. 1-2 Covalent modifications, such as acetylation,
methylation, citrullination and phosphorylation, affect chromatin structure
and exquisitely regulate gene expression.3-6 In histones, citrullination
or deimination of arginine to citrulline (Cit), a non-conventional amino acid
in protein is mediated by peptidylarginine deiminase type 4 (PAD4 or PADI4)
in the presence of Ca2+; with PAD4 being the only PAD with
a nuclear localization.7-9 Cuthbert, et al. reported that PAD4 deiminates
unmodified arginine and monomethyl, but not dimethyl arginine.9 Wang,
et al. found that PAD4 demethyliminates
histones in vitro and in vivo, regulating both histone Arg methylation and gene
activity.10 Histone hypercitrullination catalyzed by PAD4 appears to play a critical
role in chromatin decondensation in granulocytes/neutrophils.11
