General description

The histone H2A.X protein is a variant member of the H2A family of histones that is distinguished from other H2A histones by a unique carboxy-terminal sequence. This unique sequence is highly conserved throughout eukaryotic evolution and is rapidly phosphorylated by ATM or ATR at the fourth residue from the carboxy-terminus (Serine 139 in mammalian H2A.X) in response to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Phosphorylation of H2A.X is important in the formation of a stable repair complex at the site of DNA damage.
H2A.X phosphorylation is a very rapid response to DNA damage, occurring within as little as one minute after exposure to ionizing radiation. Phosphorylation of H2A.X occurs irrespective of the cause of the DNA DSBs and phospho-H2A.X has been observed in response to environmental stresses that result in DSBs as well as programmed cellular events, including DNA rearrangement and apoptosis.

Immunogen

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to human phospho-Histone H2A. X (Ser139).

Application

Anti-phospho-Histone H2A.X (Ser139) Antibody, clone JBW301 is a highly specific mouse monoclonal antibody, that targets Histone H2A.X & has been tested in western blotting, ICC, ChIP & Immunofluorescence.
Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A 1:50-250 dilution from a representative lot detected phospho-Histone H2A. X (Ser139) in HeLa and A431 cells.
Previous lot has been demonstrated to work in Immunofluorescence and Chromatin Immunoprecipitation: See reference (Meier, Andreas et al., 2007)
