Popis: We describe a new method to produce histone H2B by semisynthesis with an engineered sortase transpeptidase. N-Terminal tail site-specifically modified acetylated, lactylated, and β-hydroxybutyrylated histone H2Bs were incorporated into nucleosomes and investigated as substrates of histone deacetylase (HDAC) complexes and sirtuins. A wide range of rates and site-specificities were observed by these enzyme forms suggesting distinct biological roles in regulating chromatin structure and epigenetics.
