HDAC8 Antibody (E-5) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2b kappa light chain antibody that detects HDAC8 of human origin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry (IHC), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). HDAC8 (E-5) antibody is available in both non-conjugated and various conjugated forms, including agarose, horseradish peroxidase, phycoerythrin, fluorescein isothiocyanate, and multiple Alexa Fluor® conjugates. HDAC8, a member of the histone deacetylase family, is primarily located in the nucleus and plays a crucial role in the regulation of gene expression through the modification of chromatin structure. By removing acetyl groups from lysine residues on histones, HDAC8 contributes to the condensation of chromatin, leading to transcriptional repression. This process is vital for maintaining cellular homeostasis and regulating developmental processes, as aberrant HDAC activity has been implicated in various cancers and other diseases. HDAC8 interacts with several other proteins, including transcription factors and co-repressors, which further modulates gene regulation. Understanding HDAC8 function and interactions is essential for elucidating contributions to cellular processes and potential as a therapeutic target in cancer treatment.

Hi, I am not sure how I can fix this, but above my review said: "Also detects a smaller band < 25kDa", this is incorrect. This is a copy paste error from my another review for another antibody. Could you please delete that sentence?
