Application

Application Comment Organism
analysis combined MNase/exoIII digestion can be applied to in situ chromatin for unbiased genome-wide mapping of nucleosome positions that is not influenced by DNA sequences at the core/linker junctions. The same approach can be also used for the precise mapping of the extent of linker DNA protection by H1 and other protein factors associated with nucleosome linkers Staphylococcus aureus

additional information nucleosomal DNA sizes varying between 147 and 155 bp, the positions of the MNase cuts reflect positions of the A-T pairs rather than the nucleosome core/linker junctions. But a combined treatment with the enzyme and exonuclease III overcomes the enzyme's sequence preference producing nucleosomal DNA trimmed symmetrically and precisely at the core/linker junctions regardless of the underlying DNA sequence, overview.

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function the MNase digestion of nucleosomes assembled on a strong nucleosome positioning sequence, Widom's clone 601, releases nucleosome cores whose sizes are strongly affected by the linker DNA sequence Staphylococcus aureus
