Description: Mononucleosomes assembled from recombinant human histones expressed in E. coli (two each of histones H2A, H2B, H3.1ΔN2, and H4 Accession numbers: H2A-P04908; H2B-O60814; H3.1-P68431; H4-P62805) with the amino acid sequence of H3 beginning with threonine 3, wrapped by 147 base pairs of 601 positioning sequence DNA. The nucleosome is the basic subunit of chromatin. The 147 bp 601 sequence, identified by Lowary and Widom [1], has high affinity for histone octamers and is useful for nucleosome assembly. The DNA contains a 5' biotin-TEG group.
Mononucleosomes (H3.1ΔN2), Human Recombinant Biotinylated are highly purified and suitable for use as substrates in enzyme screening assays, structural studies, or effector protein binding experiments. The N-terminal deletion allows for the study of the role of the N-terminus in many aspects of chromatin biology.
Stable for six (6) months at -80°C from date of receipt. For best results, aliquot and avoid multiple freeze/thaws.
