SPT16 Antibody (H-4) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2b antibody that detects SPT16 in mouse, rat, and human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). SPT16 is a crucial component of the FACT complex, which plays a significant role in the transcription of chromatin templates by facilitating nucleosome disassembly during transcription elongation. This process is vital for gene expression regulation, as RNA polymerase can access the DNA wrapped around nucleosomes. The FACT complex, consisting of SPT16 and the structure-specific recognition protein-1 (SSRP-1), interacts specifically with histone H2A/H2B dimers, ensuring that transcription can proceed efficiently. SPT16′s ability to modulate chromatin structure is essential for proper gene expression, as SPT16 helps maintain the balance between transcriptional activation and repression. Anti-SPT16 antibody (H-4) enables researchers to gain insights into the dynamics of transcription regulation and the intricate mechanisms that govern gene expression in various biological contexts.
