    Western Blotting 1:1000
    Immunoprecipitation 1:200
    Chromatin IP 1:50
    Chromatin IP-seq 1:50

    Storage

    Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA, 50% glycerol and less than 0.02% sodium azide. Store at –20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.

    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    PHF8 (E6K3Y) Rabbit mAb recognizes endogenous levels of total PHF8 protein.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with recombinant protein containing Phe579 of human PHF8 protein.

    Background

    PHD finger protein 8 (PHF8) is a histone lysine demethylase that functions as a transcriptional activator by specifically demethylating a number of repressive histone methylation marks: mono- and di-methyl-histone H3 Lys9 (H3K9me1 and H3K9me2), di-methyl-histone H3 Lys27 (H3K27me2) and mono-methyl-histone H4 Lys20 (H4K20me1). PHF8 contains an N-terminal zinc finger-like PHD domain that binds tri-methylated histone H3 Lys4 (H3K4Me3) and a C-terminal jumonji domain that is responsible for the demethylase activity (1). Deletion and point mutations (F279S) in the jumonji domain of PHF8 are associated with the onset of X-linked mental retardation (XLMR). In addition, PHF8 is highly expressed in prostate cancer, laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma, and human non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Its expression is predictive of poor survival (2-4). Overexpression of PHF8 increases cell proliferation and cell motility, while silencing of PHF8 reduces cell proliferation, migration, and invasion (4).
