Phospho-Histone H2A.X (Ser139) rabbit mAb Antibody
Histone H2AX is a variant of the nucleosome core histone H2A and is phosphorylated at Ser139 in response to DNA damage. Histone H2AX phosphorylation is considered a specific reporter of double-strand DNA breaks. The protein is also referred to as gH2AX when phosphorylated at Ser139. H2AX phosphorylation is especially strong in response to double-strand breaks formed during apoptosis. However, physiological phosphorylation of Histone H2AX occurs when double-strand DNA breaks are formed during meiosis and V (D) J recombination. A549 and DU145 cell lines have been found to have higher expression levels of phosphorylated Histone H2AX compared to Jurkat, MCF-7, or HL-60 cell lines.
