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 semi-synthetic method) contains N-term. α-acetylation and acetyl-lysine at positions 5, 8, 12 and 16. The nucleosome is the basic subunit of chromatin. The 601 sequence, identified by Lowary and Widom [1], is a 147-base pair sequence that is useful for nucleosome assembly.
Acetylated, Lys5
H4 Tetraacetyl dNuc is highly purified and suitable for a variety of applications, including use as a substrate in enzymatic assays or for effector protein binding experiments.
Stable for six months at -80°C from date of receipt. For best results, aliquot and avoid multiple freeze/thaws.
