Specificity
By Western blot, this antibody is blocked strongly by di and tri methyl K27 peptides and does not detect a band in Eed KO mouse ES cell lysates (which lack both di and tri methyl K27). All batches of ab6147 have >40% cross reactivity with both H3K27me2 and H3K27me3 as shown by ELISA. The sequence which it reacts with is found in all Mammals and a wide range of other species, including D. melanogaster, Arabidopsis, Chicken and Xenopus. The antibody will react with any of the above species where the modification is present. Reactivity is not certain in S. pombe and S. cerevisiae as the equivalent protein sequence differs slightly from species listed above. -

General notes
This antibody clone is manufactured by Abcam.
Hybridomas were prepared and the resulting clones were positively screened by ELISA against the immunising peptide. Clones were negatively screened against both the corresponding unmodified peptide and also against a peptide corresponding to tri methylated K9 of Histone H3.

Developed using the ECL technique.
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 15 kDa
Observed band size: 17 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?
Exposure time: 1 minuteThis blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MES buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 35 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 2% Bovine Serum Albumin before being incubated with ab6147 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was visualised using ECL development solution ab133406.

ICC/IF image of ab6147 stained human HeLa cells. The cells were PFA fixed (10 min), permabilised in TBS-T (20 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab6147, 1µg/ml) for 1h at room temperature. 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine was used to quench autofluorescence and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red). DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue).

All batches of ab6147 are tested in ELISA against peptides to different Histone H3 modifications. Results show strong binding to Histone H3 - tri methyl K27 immunising peptide (ab1782) and Histone H3 - di methyl K27, indicating that this antibody specifically recognises both the Histone H3 - tri methyl K27 and di methyl K27 modifications. Binding is detected against the Histone H3 - di methyl K27 modification (>40%) (ab1781).

The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab6147, 1µg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22ºC. The secondary antibody used was a goat anti-mouse DyLight® 488 (IgG; H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22ºC. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (ab91353, 2µg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in HeLa cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.
