AccuChIP Trimethyl-Histone H3 Internal Control(Lys27) Chromatin Immunoprecipitation

AccuChIP Chromatin Immunoprecipitation Internal Controls are designed to improve the accuracy of ChIP experiments. This simple to spike-in reagent is composed of a target-specific peptide sequence covalently bound to a uniquely designed double stranded nucleic acid sequence. Because AccuChIP controls mimic the behavior of cross-linked chromatin, by simply adding a known amount of the AccuChIP reagent to your chromatin and performing a standard ChIP reaction followed qPCR detection you can improve the accuracy and reproducibility of your ChIP experiments.

Features and Advantages

• Simple to use - just add to chromatin either before or after sonication
• Mimics the behavior of cross-linked chromatin to allow normalization of ChIP signals
• Target specific control - uses the same antibody used for your ChIP experiment
• Reduces ChIP variation due to variables such as chromatin preparation, antibody affinity, inconsistent background signals from carry over, and loss of material during handling
• Easily incorporated into virtually any ChIP protocol
• Readily detected by qPCR
• Easily incorporated into ChIP-seq libraries
• Variety of uniquely designed controls available -add multiple controls to be added to the same chromatin as an process antibody specificity

AccuChIP H3K27me3 Spike-In Reagent (50 pg/uL )

AccuChIP H3K27me3 Detection Primer Mix (5 μM)

AccuChIP Dilution Buffer

One box containing three vials (one vial each of target specific AccuChIP Spike-In Reagent, target specific AccuChIP Detection Primer Mix, and AccuChIP Dilution Buffer)

AccuChIP Chromatin Immunoprecipitation Internal Controls are stable for 6 months at -20 ºC from date of receipt.
AccuChIP Spike In Reagent is provided as a 20X stock and should be diluted with the provided AccuChIP Dilution Buffer to create a working stock. Diluted AccuChIP Spike In Reagent can be stored in aliquots at -20 ºC for up to 3 months. AccuChIP Spike In reagent is composed of a peptide-double stranded DNA conjugate in a buffer containing BSA and glycerol to reduce adherence to the tube. The use of siliconized microfuge tubes for storage of diluted material is recommended.
