Description: Mononucleosomes assembled from recombinant human histones expressed in E. coli (two each of histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4; accession numbers: H2A-P04908; H2B-O60814; H3.1-P68431; H4-P62805) wrapped by 147 base pairs of 601 positioning sequence DNA. Histone H4 (created by a proprietary synthetic method) contains asymmetric dimethyl-arginine at position 3. 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.
Dimethylated, Asymmetric, Arg3
Nucleosome, Recombinant Human, H4R3me2a dNucs are highly purified and are suitable for use as substrates in enzyme screening assays or for effector protein binding experiments. Nucleosome, Recombinant Human, H4R3me2a dNucs from EpiCypher does not contain free DNA which could alter assayed activities.
Stable for six months at -80°C from date of receipt. For best results, aliquot and avoid multiple freeze/thaws.
