Histone H4 (1-21)-GGK(Biotin)

Product NameHistone H4 (1-21)-GGK(Biotin)
Product Quantity1 mg
SequenceAc-SGRGKGGKGLGKGGAKRHRKV-GGK(Biotin)
Molecular Weight2602.2
Purity≥95%
Mechanism & Biological Significance

This N-terminally acetylated H4(1-21) peptide carries a C-terminal GGK(Biotin) capture handle. The H4 tail contains Arg3 as well as major lysine acetylation sites and can serve as an immobilizable substrate for histone-modifying enzymes and interaction assays.

Published Research Context

The exact biotinylated H4 sequence ac-SGRGKGGKGLGKGGAKRHRKVGGK(Biotin) has been used as the substrate in radioactive PRMT1 methylation assays for small-molecule inhibitor profiling. This establishes direct assay use of the same H4 tail, N-terminal acetylation and C-terminal biotin capture chemistry.

Research Applications
  • PRMT1 methylation assays
  • histone methyltransferase inhibitor screening
  • streptavidin capture workflows
  • chromatin-enzyme assay development
Experimental Considerations

The N-terminal acetyl group and C-terminal biotinylated lysine are integral to this reagent. Results should not be assumed to match free H4(1-21) or differently linked biotin constructs.
