Anti-HDAC2 (Histone Deacetylase 2, Tanscriptional Regulator Homolog RPD3, HD2)

HDAC2 (Histone deacetylase 2) belongs to the histone deacetylase family. Histone deacetylases are responsible for the deacetylation of lysine residues on the N-terminal region of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) via the formation of large multiprotein complexes. Histone deacetylation forms the tagging for epigenetic repression and plays an important role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression, and developmental events. HDAC2 also forms transcriptional repressor complexes by associating with many different proteins, such as YY1, a mammalian zinc-finger transcription factor. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: ELISA: 0.05-0.2ug/ml, Western Blot: 0.5-1ug/ml, Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C.
