This is histone H3 (1-21) symmetrically dimethylated at Arg8 with a methyl group added to each nitrogen of the guanidinium group. This peptide is biotinylated at the epsilon side chain of an additional C-terminal Lys. Methylation at Arg8 blocks G9a methylation of Lys9. Provided at >95% peptide purity, this peptide was dissolved in distilled water at 1 mg/ml and re-lyophilized to powder form.
