Description
Description: Recombinant mononucleosomes consist of 147 base pairs of DNA wrapped around an octamer core of histone proteins (two each of H2A, H2B, H3.1, and H4) to form a nucleosome, the basic repeating unit of chromatin. The 147 bp 601 sequence containing a 5' biotin-TEG group has high affinity for histone octamers and is useful for nucleosome assembly [1]. Histone H2A contains a glutamate-to-lysine (E-to-K) substitution at position 92 (H2AE92K). H2AE92 is 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]. H2AE92 resides in the H2A C-terminal extension and is associated with nucleosome binding factors such as histone H4 N-terminal tail, LANA, RCC1, IL-33, SIR3, HMGN2, and remodeling ATPases [2-4]. H2AE92K disrupts binding with SMARCB1 [5].

Application Notes
H2AE92K mononucleosome is highly purified and suitable for a variety of applications to test the effect of acidic patch mutation on enzymatic activity or chromatin binding. The biotinylated DNA enables affinity binding applications.
