| Scientific Background | This histone H4(1-25) peptide carries acetylation at Lys12 and Lys16 and a C-terminal GSGSK(Biotin) affinity handle. H4K16 acetylation strongly influences chromatin interactions, while combined H4K12/K16 acetylation provides a defined diacetylated H4 state for studying bromodomain recognition, heterochromatin-associated interactions and histone acetylation crosstalk. |
| Research Applications |
- H4K12/K16 acetylation studies
- bromodomain and chromatin-reader binding
- heterochromatin protein interaction studies
- streptavidin pull-down assays
|
| Experimental Notes | The two acetyl-lysine sites and the GSGSK(Biotin) extension are part of the exact reagent identity. This diacetylated construct should be compared with matched unmodified and single-acetyl H4(1-25) controls. |
