This second edition provides new and updated chapters on histones for molecular biologists, biochemists and geneticists. Chapters cover protein complexes that modify chromatin either by adding or removing post-translational modifications, or by exchanging histone variants within the nucleosome. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, the chapters include brief introductions to the material, lists of necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and a Notes section which highlights tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Authoritative and cutting-edge, Histones: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition aims to be comprehensive guide for researchers in the field.
