Recombinant Histone H2A-H2B dimers

Catalog # : EPX-01-RH

Source : Human

Expressed in : E. Coli

Quantity : 50ug of recombinant H2A-H2B dimers at 1ug /ul

Background:

Histone H2A-H2B dimers are core components of the nucleosome (1). The nucleosome is basic unit of chromatin and consists of 147 base pairs of DNA wrapped around an octamer of core histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 (2).

Protein details:

Recombinant human histone H2A-H2B dimers were produced in E. Coli as fusion proteins with an N-terminal FLAG or 6xHis epitopes, purified using FPLC and formulated in a storage buffer containing 20mM Tris-Cl pH 7.9, 1mM EDTA, 1M NaCl, 0.5mM PMSF and 1mM DTT. Protein concentration was determined by spectrometry.

Quality control:

Each lot has been evaluated by ESI-TOF analysis and 17% SDS-PAGE mini-gel (Tris-Glycine SDS, Acrylamide-bis (29:1)).
