Description

Description: H3.3 is a histone variant found in regions of high chromatin turnover outside of S-phase (e.g. at actively transcribed genes). The substitution of R for G at position 34 of H3.3 interferes with SETD2-mediated H3K36 methylation. This mutation has been associated with bone cancers and astrocytomas[1]. H3.3G34R Mononucleosomes consist of 147 base pairs of DNA wrapped around an octamer of core histone proteins (two each of H2A, H2B, H3.3G34R and H4) to form a nucleosome, the basic repeating unit of chromatin. The 147 bp 601 sequence, identified by Lowary and Widom [2], has high affinity for histone octamers and is useful for nucleosome assembly. The DNA in this nucleosome contains a 5' biotin-TEG group.

Application Notes

H3.3G34R mononucleosome is highly purified and suitable for a variety of applications, including use as a substrate in enzyme assays, high-throughput screening and inhibitor testing, chromatin binding studies, protein-protein interaction assays, structural studies, and in effector protein binding experiments.

Storage Note

Stable for six months at -80°C from date of receipt. For best results, aliquot and avoid freeze/thaws.
