SDS-Page
(Streptavidin pull--down for Recombinant Mononucleosomes (H3.1) - biotinylated Recombinant Mononucleosomes (H3.1) - biotinylated were pulled down by streptavidin beads. Input nucleosomes (Lane 2) and the nucleosomes (Lane 3) pulled down by streptavidin were run on a 13% SDS-PAGE gel and stained with Commassie blue. The SDS-PAGE gel result shows that almost all of biotinylated mononucleosomes (H3.1) are pulled down by streptavidin beads. *indicates streptavidin.)
Testing Data
(Recombinant Mononucleosomes (H3.1) - biotinylated DNA gel Mononucleosomes were run on an agarose gel and stained with ethidium bromide. Lane 1: DNA marker. Lane 2: 601 DNA. Lane 3: Intact monnucleosomes (H3.1). Intact mononucleosomes (H3.1) migrated much higher than free 601 DNA. The agarose gel result shows almost all of 601 DNA wrap histone octamers to form nucleosomes.)
Western Blot (WB)
(Histone methyltransferase activity assay comparing recombinant nucleosomes and histone octamers as substrates. 2 ug Recombinant mononucleosomes (H3.1) were incubated with 0 ug (-), 0.05 ug (+), 0.1 ug (++), 0.2 ug (+++) NSD2-SET protein, respectively, in 30 ul reaction system containing 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.6, 0.02% Triton X-100, 2 mM MgCl2, 1 mM TCEP, 50 uM SAM for 3 h at room temperature. 6 ul reaction products were loaded and run on a 12.5% SDS-PAGE gel. Western Blot was used to detect the generation of reaction products (H3K36me2). The Western blot result shows that recombinant mononucleosomes (H3.1) are better substrate than histone octamer for NSD2-SET assay.)
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 significantly more active, as well as specific, 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.

Product Notes
The Mononucleosomes (Catalog #AAA388178) 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, 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
