Cat.No.:  PE-3601
Product Name:  Recombinant Histone H3 (C110A)
Product Overview:  Recombinant Xenopus laevis Histone H3 (C110A) is produced in E. coli and purified using FPLC. Protein concentration was determined using the molar extinction coefficient for Histone H3 and absorbance at 280nm. The recombinant histone is >98% pure by SDS-PAGE. Recombinant Histone H3 C110A contains a substitution of cysteine to alanine at amino acid 110. The molecular weight of the protein is 15,239 Daltons.
Background:  Histone H3 is one of the core components of the nucleosome. The nucleosome is the smallest subunit of chromatin and consists of 146 base pairs of DNA wrapped around an octamer of core histone proteins (two each of H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). Histone H1 is a linker protein, present at the interface between the nucleosome core and DNA entry/exit points. Histone H3 (C110A) is a mutant H3 protein that has the single cysteine residue at 110 in the protein mutated to alanine. This mutant is useful for biophysical studies with assembled nucleosomes, and is useful for certain protein ligation and engineering chemistries used to install site specific modifications into the H3 protein.
Applications:  Suitable for use as positive controls in the analysis of histone post-translational modifications, as substrates for histone modification enzymes, or to generate chromatin in vitro.
Storage:  Store at 4℃ if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store at -20℃ or -80℃ for longer periods of time. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
