The HAT Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a convenient, lysate-free, high throughput and sensitive assay kit that can detect HAT protein expression profile in cells. The kit can be used for measuring the relative amounts of HAT in cultured cells as well as screening for the effects that various treatments, inhibitors (ie siRNA or chemicals), or activators have on HAT.
Qualitative determination of HAT concentration is achieved by an indirect ELISA format. In essence, HAT is captured by HAT-specific primary antibodies while the HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies bind the Fc region of the primary antibody. Through this binding, the HRP enzyme conjugated to the secondary antibody can catalyze a colorimetric reaction upon substrate addition. Due to the qualitative nature of the Cell-Based ELISA, multiple normalization methods are needed:
1. | A monoclonal antibody specific for human GAPDH is included to serve as an internal positive control in normalizing the target absorbance values. |
2. | Following the colorimetric measurement of HRP activity via substrate addition, the Crystal Violet whole-cell staining method may be used to determine cell density. After staining, the results can be analysed by normalizing the absorbance values to cell amounts, by which the plating difference can be adjusted. |
Database Information: | Gene ID: 8520, UniProt ID: O14929, OMIM: 603053, Unigene: Hs.632532 |
Gene Symbol: | HAT1 |
Sub Type: | None |
UniProt Protein Function: | HAT1: Acetylates soluble but not nucleosomal histone H4 at 'Lys-5' (H4K5ac) and 'Lys-12' (H4K12ac) and, to a lesser extent, acetylates histone H2A at 'Lys-5' (H2AK5ac). Has intrinsic substrate specificity that modifies lysine in recognition sequence GXGKXG. May be involved in nucleosome assembly during DNA replication and repair as part of the histone H3.1 and H3.3 complexes. May play a role in DNA repair in response to free radical damage. Belongs to the HAT1 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |
UniProt Protein Details: | Protein type:Acetyltransferase; EC 2.3.1.48 Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 2q31.2-q33.1 Cellular Component: intracellular membrane-bound organelle; nuclear chromatin; nuclear chromosome, telomeric region; nucleoplasm; nucleus; protein complex Molecular Function:H4 histone acetyltransferase activity; histone acetyltransferase activity; histone binding; protein binding Biological Process: DNA packaging; DNA replication-dependent nucleosome assembly; DNA replication-independent nucleosome assembly; internal protein amino acid acetylation |
NCBI Summary: | The protein encoded by this gene is a type B histone acetyltransferase (HAT) that is involved in the rapid acetylation of newly synthesized cytoplasmic histones, which are in turn imported into the nucleus for de novo deposition onto nascent DNA chains. Histone acetylation, particularly of histone H4, plays an important role in replication-dependent chromatin assembly. Specifically, this HAT can acetylate soluble but not nucleosomal histone H4 at lysines 5 and 12, and to a lesser degree, histone H2A at lysine 5. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2009] |

Step | Procedure |
1. | Seed 200 µL of 20,000 adherent cells in culture medium in each well of a 96-well plate. The plates included in the kit are sterile and treated for cell culture. For suspension cells and loosely attached cells, coat the plates with 100 µL of 10 µg/ml Poly-L-Lysine (not included) to each well of a 96-well plate for 30 minutes at 37°C prior to adding cells. |
2. | Incubate the cells for overnight at 37°C, 5% CO2. |

4. | Remove the cell culture medium and rinse with 200 µL of 1x TBS, twice. |
5. | Fix the cells by incubating with 100 µL of Fixing Solution for 20 minutes at room temperature. The 4% formaldehyde is used for adherent cells and 8% formaldehyde is used for suspension cells and loosely attached cells. |
6. | Remove the Fixing Solution and wash the plate 3 times with 200 µL 1x Wash Buffer for five minutes each time with gentle shaking on the orbital shaker. The plate can be stored at 4°C for a week. |
