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; H3.2-Q71DI3*; H4-P62805) wrapped by 147 base pairs of 601 positioning sequence DNA. Histone H3 (created by a proprietary semi-synthetic method) contains trimethyl-lysine at position 9. The nucleosome is the basic subunit of chromatin. The 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. *H3.2K9me3 has a Cys to Ala substitution at position 110.
Trimethylated, Lys9
Stable for six months at -80°C from date of receipt. For best results, aliquot and avoid freeze/thaws.
H3K9me3 nucleosome 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. For a corresponding unmodified control, we recommend EpiCypher 16-0006.
