Description

Designer mononucleosomes (dNucs) 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. Histone H3 (created by a proprietary synthetic method) contains trimethyl-lysine at position 36. 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 in this nucleosome contains a 5’ biotin-TEG group.

Validation Data

Figure 1: Western blot data
Western Analysis of H3K36me3 dNuc. Top Panel: Unmodified (EpiCypher 16-0006; Lane 1) and H3K36me3 nucleosomes (Lane 2) were probed with an anti-H3K36me3 antibody and analyzed via ECL readout. Only the H3K36me3 sample produced a detectable signal. Bottom Panel: Detail from Coomassie stained gel showing unmodified H3 (Lane 1) and H3K36me3 nucleosome (Lane 2).

Figure 2: Mass spec data
Synthetic H3K36me3 histone analyzed by high resolution mass spectrometry. Expected mass = 15,314.97 Da. Determined mass = 15,314.95 Da.

Figure 3: Protein gel data
Coomassie stained PAGE gel of proteins in H3K36me3 dNuc (1 µg) demonstrates the purity of histones in the preparation. Sizes of molecular weight markers and positions of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3K36me3 and H4) are indicated.

Figure 4: DNA gel data
H3K36me3 dNuc resolved via native PAGE and stained with ethidium bromide to visualize DNA. Lane 1: Free DNA (EpiCypher 18-0005; 100 ng). Lane 2: Intact H3K36me3 nucleosomes (400 ng).
