Histone H3 (1-10) K4Me3

Product NameHistone H3 (1-10) K4Me3
Product Quantity1 mg
SequenceART-K(Me3)-QTARKS
Molecular Weight1189.5
Purity≥95%
Mechanism & Biological Significance

H3K4me3 is a promoter-associated trimethyl-lysine mark recognized by PHD fingers and other chromatin-reader modules. H3(1-10) K4Me3 is a minimal, sequence-defined ligand for studying this recognition chemistry.

Published Research Context

The exact H3(1-10)K4me3 peptide has been used directly in crystallographic and binding studies of ING4 and was also obtained from the commercial supplier for biochemical studies of BPTF PHD recognition. These publications establish direct experimental use of the same 10-residue trimethylated construct.

Research Applications
  • PHD-finger binding assays
  • H3K4me3 recognition studies
  • protein-peptide structural studies
  • chromatin-reader biophysics
Experimental Considerations

Binding can depend strongly on peptide length, terminal chemistry and methylation state. Keep H3(1-10) K4Me3 distinct from H3K4me2, H3K4me1 and longer H3K4me3 peptides.
