Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.

| Purity | Anti-Histone H4 [Monomethyl Lys20] was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography. This antibody reacts with human Histone H4. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with Human, mouse, and C. elegans. Predicted to react with most mammal species. Cross-reactivity with Histone H4 from other sources has not been determined. |

| Name | H4C1 |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | H4/A, H4FA, HIST1H4A |
| Function | 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. |
| Cellular Location | Nucleus. Chromosome. |

Background
SET8 specifically catalyzes the mono-methylation of H4 at K20. Loss of this crucial methylation causes multiple DNA breaks, which instigates a p53-dependent DNA damage response to avoid mitosis and aberrant chromosomal activity. Therefore, this PTM is essential to genome replication and stability through S-phase. In mammalian stem cells, Xist expression blocks the formation of H4K20me1, which is one of the first examples of a direct connection between chromatin and stem cell differentiation. Anti-Histone H4 are ideal for researchers interested in Chromatin Modifiers, Chromatin Research, DNA Repair, DNA replication Transcription Translation and Splicing, Histones and Modified Histones, and Epigenetics research.
