مستخلص: Histones are an essential part of nucleosomes that regulate chromatin structure and function. Histone exchanges and modifications represent a scaffold for DNA transcription, repair, and replication. Studying histones and histone code is an important and fast-developing branch of epigenetic science. Here we propose a fast, efficient, and versatile assay for nucleosomal histone isolation from mammalian cells, without the use of acids or high salt solutions which are common for other histone isolation techniques. All components used in the protocol are common and inexpensive laboratory chemicals. The protocol has been evaluated on six commonly used cell lines and two animal tissue samples. The mild extraction conditions preserve delicate histone epigenetic changes, allowing its downstream analyses. We have demonstrated the assays' successful application during changes in the transcriptional activity of histone genes, cell cycle transitions, and DNA-damaging conditions. Histone fractions, obtained by the protocol, can be used for further applications, such as electrophoresis, immunoblot, and mass spectrometry. Therefore, the new proposed nucleosomal histone isolation method is sensitive, specific, and suitable for downstream applications of various kinds. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
