Figure 2. Histone extraction.

Figure 2

Whole cell extracts were prepared under denaturing conditions from bacteria expressing Drosophila H2B by French Press and sonication. Cell debris and residual insoluble material were pelleted by centrifugation. Efficiency of the histone extraction was analyzed on Coomassie-stained SDS gels by loading equivalent amounts of the supernatant containing the solubilized histones (SN) and the corresponding pellet fraction (P). Most H2B was present in the supernatant.
