Description

Recombinant mononucleosomes (H3K9me1) consist of 147 base pairs of DNA wrapped around an octamer core of histone proteins (two each of H2A, H2B, H3.2, and H4) to form a nucleosome, the basic repeating unit of chromatin. The 147 bp 601 sequence, identified by Lowary and Widom [1], has high affinity for histone octamers and is useful for nucleosome assembly. H3K9me1 dNuc contains monomethyl-lysine at position 9 on histone H3.2. H3K9me1 has a Cys to Ala substitution at position 110. The DNA in this nucleosome contains a 5’ biotin-TEG group.

Validation Data

Figure 1: Western blot data
Western Analysis of H3K9me1 dNuc. Top Panel: Unmodified (EpiCypher 16-0006; Lane 1) and H3K9me1 (Lane 2) nucleosomes were probed with an anti-H3K9me1 antibody and analyzed via ECL readout. Only the H3K9me1 sample produced a detectable signal. Bottom Panel: Detail from Coomassie stained gel showing unmodified (Lane 1) and H3K9me1 (Lane 2) nucleosomes.

Figure 2: Mass spec data
Synthetic H3K9me1 histone analyzed by high resolution mass spectrometry. Expected mass = 15,238.8 Da. Determined mass = 15,237.80 Da.

Figure 3: Protein gel data
Coomassie stained SDS-PAGE gel of proteins in H3K9me1 dNuc (1 µg) demonstrates the purity of histones in the preparation. Sizes of molecular weight markers and positions of the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3K9me1 and H4) are indicated.

Figure 4: DNA gel data
H3K9me1 dNuc resolved via native PAGE gel and stained with ethidium bromide to visualize DNA. Lane 1: Free DNA (EpiCypher 18-0005; 100 ng). Lane 2: Intact H3K9me1 nucleosomes (400 ng).
