Histone H3 (1-22) K4Me3 is derived from Histone 3 (H3) which is one of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4) fundamental in compacting eukaryotic DNA into the nucleosome. The nucleosome arises when 147 base pairs of DNA wrap around a H3-H4 tetramer and two H2A-H2B dimers, forming the histone octamer core. Both H4 and H3 are highly conserved and perform roles in binding to segments of DNA which enter and leave the nucleosome and in chromatin formation. Similar to the other core histone, H3 has a globular domain and a flexible N-terminal domain, 'histone tail' which can undergo modifications such as acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation and ubiquitination. Due to histones containing a large number of lysine and arginine residues they have a positive net charge which interacts in an electrostatic manner with the negatively charged phosphate groups in DNA. The transcriptional activation or silencing of the chromatin is controlled by ATP-dependent chromatin remodelling factors and histone modifying enzymes which target histone proteins. Both processes function to alter the positioning of the nucleosome, allowing the DNA it to be either available or inaccessible to the transcription machinery.Another modification process histones can undergo is biotinylation where the covalent attachment of a biotin molecule is catalysed by the enzyme biotinidase. This cleaves biocytin to generate a biotinyl-thiester intermediate. The biotinyl can then be transferred onto the histone lysine ɛ-amino group which in this case it is covalently attached to Histone 3. Overall the biotinylation sites identified in histone 3 are: K4, K9 and K18. The presence of biotinylated histones have been detected in human cells such as lymphocytes and lymphomas.Lysine 4 of H3 (1-22) has been tri-methylated.

Amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) has been identified as the key subunit of the extracellular plaques found in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Down's syndrome (DS). Aβ has therefore been extensively studied as a potential target for treatment of AD. Aβ is formed from the cleavage of the large, transmembrane protein APP (amyloid precursor protein). Cleavage of APP by β- and then γ-secretases results in the formation of Aβ. Aβ can aggregate to produce amyloid-β oligomers, which are thought to be highly neurotoxic. Over time Aβ can further aggregate to produce the characteristic senile plaques present in AD and DS. Aβ can be degraded by enzymes such as neprilysin, insulin degrading enzyme or endothelin converting enzyme. At physiological levels Aβ may be involved in controlling synaptic activity and neuronal survival.

Calcitonin is a peptide hormone excreted by the thyroid parafollicular cells to regulate calcium and phosphorus levels. Calcitonin acts in opposition to parathyroid hormone (PTH) and vitamin D. Calcitonin functions by inhibiting osteoclast activity in the bones preventing calcium release- there is also inhibition of renal tubular cell reabsorption of calcium and phosphate, so they are excreted preventing a rise in levels.Calcitonin is used for as marker for detection and prognosis of nodular thyroid diseases. Medullary thyroid cancer is one example of the malignant parafollicular cells detectable with the assay, as they present with an increased calcitonin level even at an early stage.Since the discovery of calcitonin over 50 years ago the salmon sourced peptide has been used in numerous treatments including bone metastases, Paget disease, hypercalcaemia, and postmenopausal osteoporosis. The salmon calcitonin has been shown to be equivalent to human form but more active and can be synthetically generated.
