TECHNICAL REPORTS
EpiCypher – Oh, the Places SNAP-ChIP® Will Go: Acylation and Combinatorial PTMs
As the quality and specificity of antibodies is an ongoing issue in biomedical research, there has been a
growing demand for reliable controls. EpiCypher’s SNAP-ChIP® approach is rapidly becoming the new
standard for controlling chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments to histone post-translational
modifications (PTMs).
Last month, EpiCypher launched an exciting new line of products in the SNAP-ChIP family: K-AcylStat™ SNAP-ChIP spike-in panel
and K-AcylStat™ SNAP-ChIP certified antibodies. This advancement expands the application of SNAP-ChIP technology to diverse
lysine acylation PTMs and extended acylation states with emerging importance in epigenetic biology.

MJSBioLynx WELL BEING
The Lost Wisdom of Well-Being: Health and well-being depend on how we regard others.
“Human beings are social animals, hard-wired to react emotionally to one another. In fact, our emotions are far more contagious than any known virus. This means that every one of our interactions with other people changes us and them a tiny bit, for better or worse.”
