Figure 1. ChIP results obtained with the antibody directed against H3K9ac
ChIP assays were performed using human HeLa cells, the antibody against H3K9ac (cat. No. C15410004) and optimized PCR primer pairs for qPCR. ChIP was performed with the iDeal ChIP-seq kit (cat. No. C01010051), using sheared chromatin from 500,000 cells. A titration consisting of 1, 2.5 and 5 µg of antibody per ChIP experiment was analyzed. IgG (1 µg/IP) was used as a negative IP control. Quantitative PCR was performed with primers specific for the promoter of the active genes GAPDH and EIF4A2, used as positive controls, and for the inactive MYOD1 gene and the Sat2 satellite repeat, 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). These results are in accordance with the observation that acetylation of K9 at histone H3 is associated with the promoters of active genes

Figure 2. ChIP-seq results obtained with the antibody directed against H3K9ac
ChIP was performed with 1 µg of the antibody against H3K9ac (cat. No. C15410004) as described above and the IP’d 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 2 shows the peak distribution along the complete sequence and an 800 kb region of the X-chromosome (figure 2A and B) and in 100 kb regions surrounding the GAPDH and EIF4A2 positive control genes (figure 2C and D). These results clearly show an enrichment of H3K9ac at the promoters of active genes.

Figure 3. Cut&Tag results obtained with the antibody directed against H3K9ac
CUT&TAG was performed on 50,000 K562 cells using 0.2 µg of the Diagenode antibody against H3K9ac (cat. No. C15410004) and the Diagenode pA-Tn5 transposase (C01070001). The libraries were subsequently analysed on an Illumina NovaSeq sequencer (2x50 paired-end reads) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The tags were aligned to the human genome (hg38) using the BWA algorithm. Figure 3 shows the peak distribution along the complete sequence and a 600 kb region of human chromosome 1 (figure 3A and B) and in 2 genomic regions surrounding the EIF2S3 gene on the X-chromosome and the ACTB gene on chromosome 7 (figure 3C and D, respectively).
Figure 4. Determination of the antibody titer
To determine the titer of the antibody, an ELISA was performed using a serial dilution of the antibody directed against H3K9ac (cat. No. C15410004) 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 4), the titer of the antibody was estimated to be 1:13,500.

Figure 5. Cross reactivity test using the antibody directed against H3K9ac
A Dot Blot analysis was performed to test the cross reactivity of the antibody against H3K9ac (cat. No. C15410004) with peptides containing other histone modifications and the unmodified H3K9 sequence. One hundred to 0.2 pmol of the respective peptides were spotted on a membrane. The antibody was used at a dilution of 1:2,000. Figure 5 shows a high specificity of the antibody for the modification of interest.

Figure 6. Western blot analysis using the antibody directed against H3K9ac
Histone extracts of HeLa cells (15 µg) were analysed by Western blot using the antibody against H3K9ac (cat. No. C15410004) diluted 1:1,000 in TBS-Tween containing 5% skimmed milk. The position of the protein of interest is indicated on the right; the marker (in kDa) is shown on the left.

Figure 7. Immunofluorescence using the antibody directed against H3K9ac
HeLa cells were stained with the antibody against H3K9ac (cat. No. C15410004) and with DAPI. Cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde for 10’ and blocked with PBS/TX-100 containing 5% normal goat serum and 1% BSA. The cells were immunofluorescently labelled with the H3K9ac antibody (left) diluted 1:500 in blocking solution followed by an anti-rabbit antibody conjugated to Alexa488. The middle panel shows staining of the nuclei with DAPI. A merge of the two stainings is shown on the right.
Histones are the main constituents of the protein part of chromosomes of eukaryotic cells. They are rich in the amino acids arginine and lysine and have been greatly conserved during evolution. Histones pack the DNA into tight masses of chromatin. Two core histones of each class H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 assemble and are wrapped by 146 base pairs of DNA to form one octameric nucleosome. Histone tails undergo numerous post-translational modifications, which either directly or indirectly alter chromatin structure to facilitate transcriptional activation or repression or other nuclear processes. In addition to the genetic code, combinations of the different histone modifications reveal the so-called “histone code”. Histone methylation and demethylation is dynamically regulated by respectively histone methyl transferases and histone demethylases.
I have extensively used the antibodies against the histone modifications H3K4me3, H3k27me3, H3K9ac, H4k8ac and H3K18ac provided by Diagenode. The high level of specificity and selectivity of these antibodies in mouse brain samples, confirmed by using several negative and positive controls run in parallel with mouse brain tissue samples, ensured successful and reproducible results. I have been a Diagenode costumer for over one year now and I am extremely satisfied with the efficiency of the Bioruptor Pico for chromatin shearing as well as all of the ChIP materials (i.e., antibodies, blocking peptides, primer pairs for qPCR) provided by this company. Many thanks.
