Abstract excerpt
Phosphorylation of histone H3 is a hallmark event in mitosis and is associated with chromosome condensation. Here, we use a combination of immobilized metal affinity chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry to characterize post-translational modifications associated with phosphorylation on the N-terminal tails of histone H3 variants purified from mitotically arrested HeLa cells. Modifications observed in vivo...
