Description
Histone H2B 1.1 protein is a key nucleosome component that compacts DNA into chromatin, thereby restricting access to cellular processes. Histone H2B 1.1 Protein, Xenopus laevis is the recombinant Xenopus laevis-derived Histone H2B 1.1 protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free.
Background
Histone H2B 1.1 is an essential core component of the nucleosome, a fundamental structure that orchestrates the wrapping and compaction of DNA into chromatin, restricting DNA accessibility to cellular machineries reliant on DNA as a template. Histones, including H2B 1.1, assume a central role in pivotal cellular processes such as transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication, and the maintenance of chromosomal stability. The intricate regulation of DNA accessibility involves a sophisticated network of post-translational modifications collectively known as the histone code, as well as dynamic nucleosome remodeling. The nucleosome, a histone octamer, consists of two molecules each of H2A, H2B, H3, and H4, assembled in one H3-H4 heterotetramer and two H2A-H2B heterodimers. This octamer efficiently wraps approximately 147 base pairs of DNA, highlighting its crucial role in organizing chromatin structure and facilitating key genomic functions.

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of ddH2O, pH 7.0, 5mM BME, 0.1mM PMSF.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
