Description

The Polycomb Group 2 (PRC2) Antibody Sampler Kit provides an economical means of evaluating total levels of Polycomb Group 2 Proteins. The kit contains enough primary and secondary antibodies to perform two western blot experiments.

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.

Background

The polycomb group (PcG) proteins are involved in maintaining the silenced state of multiple developmentally regulated genes and contribute to the maintenance of cell identity, cell cycle regulation, and oncogenesis (1-4). Enhancer of zest homolog 1 (Ezh1) and enhancer of zest homolog 2 (Ezh2) are members of this large protein family and are subunits of the polycomb repressor complex 2 (PRC2), also known to contain SUZ12, EED, JARID2, and AEBP2. Ezh1 and its paralog Ezh2 are mutually exclusive catalytic subunits of the PRC2 complex, which functions to mono-, di-, and tri-methylate Lys27 on histone H3, all marks that are associated with transcriptional repression. SUZ12 and EED proteins are also absolutely required for methyltransferase activity (5). JARID2 and AEBP2 are both accessory proteins that function to recruit the PRC2 complex to target genes and enhance methyltransferase activity by binding to DNA and histone proteins in nucleosomes (5-13).
