Testing Data
(Recombinant Mononucleosomes H3.1 (K18I) - biotin DNA gel Recombinant Mononucleosomes H3.1 (K18I) - biotin were run on a 2% agarose gel and stained with ethidium bromide. Lane 1: DNA marker. Lane 2: 601 DNA which was used for assembly of nucleosomes. Lane 3: Intact mononucleosomes H3.1 (K18I) - biotin. Intact mononucleosomes H3.1 (K18I) - biotin migrated much higher than free 601 DNA. The agarose gel shows that almost all of 601 DNA wrapped histone octamers to form nucleosomes.)

(Recombinant Mononucleosomes H3.1 (K18I) - biotin 12.5% SDS-PAGE gel stained with Coomassie Blue. MW: 108 kDa Purity: >95%)
SDS-Page
(Streptavidin pull down assay for Recombinant Mononucleosomes H3.1 (K18I) - biotin 24 ug biotinylated mononucleosomes were incubated with 10 ul streptavidin beads in 400 ul binding buffer containing 25 mM Tris pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 5% glycerol, 0.1% Triton X-100 for 1hours at 4?. Streptavidin beads were washed 3 times with 1 ml binding buffer. Then the beads were added 60 ul 2×SDS loading buffer and boiled for 10 min. at 9 degree C. 2.4 ul samples were loaded and run on a 12.5% SDSPAGE gel and stained by Coommassie Blue. The SDS-PAGE gel result showed that 80% of biotinylated mononucleosomes were pulled down by streptavidin beads. * indicates streptavidin.)
Background: In vivo, histones are wrapped around by DNA in chromatin. Therefore, nucleosomes are more physiologically relevant substrates than histones and histone-derived peptides for in vitro studies. More importantly, some histone methyltransferases are signifcantly more active, as well as specifc, when using nucleosomal substrates in HMT assays, such as DOT1L and NSD family enzymes. Nucleosomes are also widely used in histone methyltransferase screening assays to identify small molecular inhibitors for drug discovery. Histones are linked to tumorigenesis primarily through alterations in their PTMs and the enzymes regulating these modifications, suggesting that they might disrupt the reading, writing, and/or erasing of these marks. Mutations in histone H3 occur with high genetic penetrance within rare pediatric gliomas and sarcomas. In H3 variants, the mutation is most often a lysine-to-methionine (K-M) mutation, occasionally glycine mutations (G34R/V/W/L) occur too. More K-to-M/I mutations were observed, raising the possibility that the functional effects associated with known K-to-M/I changes (that is, function in a dominant fashion to block the methylation of corresponding lysines on wild type histones) may extend to additional contexts. Researchers found that mutations in the subset with a TMB <= 2 mutations per Mb included H3 (K27M) and H3 (G34W), and other mutations like H3 (E105K/Q), mutations at H3 N-terminal residues at or near PTM sites including R2, R8, K18 and R26, as well as residues in the acidic patch such as H2A residues E56, E64, E9, and E92 and H2B residues E105 and E133, which might act as oncohistones. According to the structural analysis, specifically for the KDM6 family, the hydrophobic mutation-histone H3 K18I- showed a significantly higher affinity towards the KDM6 enzymes.

Product Notes
The H3.1 (Catalog #AAA389317) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Mononucleosomes H3.1, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
