Cat.No.:  EKIT-0357
Product Name:  Histone H3 (methyl K27) Assay Kit
Assay Type:  Quantitative
Description:  Histone H3 (methyl K27) Assay Kit allows the user to specifically measure global histone H3K27 methylation using a variety of mammalian cells including fresh and frozen tissues, cultured adherent and suspension cells.Methylation of histone H3 at lysine 27 (K27) is a mark of gene inactivation and it is thought to mediate heterochromatin formation by forming a binding site for Polycomb. H3 (methyl K27) is also thought to have an important role in the repression of HOX genes during development and in X chromosome inactivation and imprinting.
Background:  Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling.
Target Species:  Mouse, Human; Mammals
Warning:  For research use only, not for diagnostic use.
