Histone H3 (1-35) is a 35-residue peptide derived from histone H3, which is a key member of the five main histones participating in the formation of chromatin within eukaryotic cells.
Histone H3 (21-44), derived from a sequence of 21-44 amino acids of histone H3, is commonly employed as a substrate, particularly for protein arginine methyltransferase assays, where methylation activity is being examined.
Histone H3 (23-34) is a peptide consisting of amino acid residues 23 to 34 of the histone H3 protein. This peptide specifically includes lysine residues at positions 23 and 27, which can undergo methylation and acetylation modifications.
Histone H3 (1-21) is a truncated form of the Histone H3 protein consisting of amino acids 1 to 21. It serves as a common substrate for methyltransferase assays targeting Histone 3 at lysine 4 and lysine 9, as well as for acetyltransferase assays targeting Histone 3 at lysine 9 and lysine 14.
Histone H3 (21-44)-GK-biotin is a peptide fragment of histone H3 that corresponds to amino acid residues 22-45 of the human histone H3.1 and 3.2 sequences and is biotinylated via a C-terminal GK linker. Histone H3 (21-44) contains a lysine residue at position 23 that is subject to acetylation, an arginine at position 26 subject to methylation, and a serine at position 28 subject to phosphorylation, as well as lysine residues at positions 27 and 36 that are subject to methylation and acetylation. Histone H3 (21-44)-GK-biotin has been used as a substrate for the primate-specific histone methyltransferase PR domain-containing protein 7 (PRDM7) to determine substrate specificity.
Histone H3 (21-44)-GK-biotin is a peptide fragment of histone H3 that corresponds to amino acid residues 22-45 of the human histone H3.3 sequence and is biotinylated via a C-terminal GK linker. Unlike histone H3.1 and H3.2, the histone H3.3 variant contains a serine residue at position 31 that is phosphorylated during late prometaphase and metaphase of mitosis. Histone H3 (21-44) also contains lysine residues at positions 23, 27, and 36 that are subject to methylation and acetylation, all of which have a role in the regulation of gene expression, and a serine residue at position 28 that is subject to phosphorylation during mitosis.
Histone H3 (1-25), amide is a N-terminal peptide fragment of histone H3 that serves as a substrate for histone methyltransferases (HMTs). It can be utilized to identify the substrate for HMTs. Compared to histone H3 (15-39) and full-length histone H3, Histone H3 (1-25), amide proves to be more efficient as a substrate for HMT G9a.
Histone H3K27Me1 (23-34) is a peptide fragment of histone H3 that corresponds to amino acid residues 24-35 of the human histone H3.1 and H3.2 sequences. Monomethylation of histone H3 at lysine 27 is associated with actively transcribed genes and positively correlates with H3K36 trimethylation. Levels of H3K27Me1 are increased in tumor tissue isolated from patients with metastatic hormone-na ve and castration-resistant prostate cancer. Histone H3K27Me1 (23-34) has been used in epitope mapping of the lupus-derived monoclonal antibody BT164.
LSD1-IN-5 increases dimethylated Lys4 of histone H3, shows no effect on expression of LSD1. LSD1-IN-5 is a potent and reversible inhibitor of lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1), with an IC50 of 121 nM.
LSD1-IN-6 increases dimethylated Lys4 of histone H3, shows no effect on expression of LSD1. LSD1-IN-6 is a potent and reversible inhibitor of lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1), with an IC50 of 123 nM.
