AltaBioscience stock a selection of individual histone peptides and 5 different histone peptide sets.
The peptide sequences are derived from human histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 and include a range of modified amino acids.
Our ready-to-use histone peptide arrays are effective, convenient and made to the same high standards as our individual peptides. Ideal for assay development, regulatory studies and assessing the quality of antibodies used in reporter systems, these peptides are also powerful tools for epigenetic studies including:
- protein-protein interactions
- enzyme affinity studies
- antibody screening assays
Each histone peptide set comprises of 94 different histone peptides and can include post-translational modifications including acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation and citrullination. There are five ready-made sets available, the sequences of which can be downloaded as pdf files:
Set 1 Histone H3
Set 2 Histone H2A, H2B + H4 library
Set 3 Histone H3 N-terminal library
Set 4 Histone Acetyl Lysine Library
Set 5 Histone phosphorylation and Arginine methylation
