Assay Conditions

ChIP results obtained with the antibody directed against H3K4me1
ChIP was performed with the antibody against H3K4me1 (Cat. No. 25253) on sheared chromatin from 1 million HeLaS3 cells. A titration of the antibody consisting of 1, 2, 5 and 10 μg per ChIP experiment was analysed. IgG (2 μg/IP) was used as negative IP control. Quantitative PCR was performed with primers for a region surrounding the ACTB and GAS2L1 genes, used as positive controls, and for the promoters of the GAPDH and EIF4A2 genes, used as negative controls. Figure 1 shows the recovery, expressed as a % of input (the relative amount of immunoprecipitated DNA compared to input DNA after qPCR analysis).

ChIP-seq results obtained with the antibody directed against H3K4me1
ChIP was performed as described above with 1 μg of the antibody against H3K4me1 (Cat. No. 25253). The immunoprecipitated DNA was subsequently analysed on an Illumina Genome Analyzer. Library preparation, cluster generation and sequencing were performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The 36 bp tags were aligned to the human genome using the ELAND algorithm. Figure 2A and B show the enrichment in chromosomal regions surrounding the ACTB and GAS2L1 positive control genes. The position of the amplicon used in the qPCR validation is indicated by an arrow. Figure 2C and D show the H3K4me1 signal in two 1 Mb regions of chromosome 5 and X, respectively.

Determination of the titer
To determine the titer, an ELISA was performed using a serial dilution of the antibody directed against H3K4me1 (Cat. No. 25253) in antigen coated wells. The antigen used was a peptide containing the histone modification of interest. By plotting the absorbance against the antibody dilution (Figure 3), the titer of the antibody was estimated to be 1:20,100.

Cross reactivity tests using the antibody directed against H3K4me1
A Dot Blot analysis was performed to test the cross reactivity of the antibody against H3K4me1 (Cat. No. 25253) with peptides containing other modifications or unmodified sequences of histone H3 and H4. One hundred to 0.2 pmol of the respective peptides were spotted on a membrane. The antibody was used at a dilution of 1:10,000. Figure 4 shows a high specificity of the antibody for the modification of interest.

Western blot analysis using the antibody directed against H3K4me1
Western blot was performed on whole cell (25 μg, lane 1) and histone extracts (15 μg, lane 2) from HeLa cells, and on 1 μg of recombinant histone H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 (lane 3, 4, 5 and 6, respectively) using the antibody against H3K4me1 (Cat. No. 25253). The antibody was diluted 1:500 in TBS-Tween containing 5% skimmed milk. The position of the protein of interest is shown on the right, the marker (in kDa) is shown on the left.
