16-1031 PAGE image
Coomassie stained PAGE gel of proteins in H2BE105A,E113A mononucleosomes (1 µg) demonstrates the purity of the histones in the preparation. Sizes of molecular weight markers and positions of the core histones (H2A, H2BE105A,E113A, H3.1 and H4) are indicated.
16-1031 Native PAGE
H2BE105A,E113A mononucleosomes resolved by native PAGE and stained with ethidium bromide to visualize DNA. Lane 1: Free DNA (100 ng). Lane 2: Intact nucleosomes (400 ng).
16-1031 Finctional Binding Assay
The presence of acidic patch mutations disrupts LANA peptide binding to recombinant nucleosomes (WT rNuc control, EpiCypher 16-0009; H2AE92K, EpiCypher 16-1030; H2BE105A,E113A, EpiCypher 16-1031). The binding of biotinylated LANA peptide to recombinant nucleosomes was assessed by AlphaLISA assay (Perkin Elmer) using Streptavidin Donor Beads, anti-Histone H3.1/3.2 antibody, and Protein A Acceptor Beads.

Description
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 [1]. *Histone H2B contains a glutamate-to-alanine (E-to-A) substitution at positions 105 and 113 (H2BE105A,E113A). H2BE105 and H2BE113 are among key residues forming a negatively charged region on the nucleosome surface named the "acidic patch". The acidic patch is a conserved interaction hub for neighboring nucleosomes and nucleosome binding proteins, often via salt bridges with arginine anchors, and is functionally critical in chromatin condensation and chromatin remodeling [2-4]. H2B E105 and E113 both reside in the H2B alphaC extension and are associated with nucleosome binding factors such as histone H4 N-terminal tail, LANA, RCC1, HMGN2 and SMARCB1 [2,5].
