Trout-liver histones.
نویسندگان
چکیده
1. The histones of trout liver were examined and four main fractions (f1, f2b, f2a and f3) were isolated and characterized. 2. The amino acid analyses, N-terminal group analyses and starch-gel electrophoresis patterns are remarkably similar to the corresponding fractions of calf thymus. 3. The group f2a was also separated into two subfractions, f2al and f2a2, which are similar to those of calf thymus.

Reduced levels of histones H1o and H1b, and unaltered content of methylated DNA in rainbow trout hepatocellular carcinoma chromatin.
The levels of histone subtypes and DNA methylation of aflatoxin-induced rainbow trout hepatocellular carcinoma and adult liver nuclei were compared. The hepatocellular carcinoma nuclei were enriched in the ubiquitinated species of histone H2A and depleted in histones H1o and H1b. The 5-methylcytosine content and methylation patterns of the vitellogenin genes and the transcriptionally inactive T...
متن کاملThe subunit structure of chromatin: characteristics of nucleohistone and nucleoprotamine from developing trout testis.
Recent work has demonstrated the existence of a subunit structure in chromatin. Hewish and Burgoyne have reported [I] that a large proportion of DNA in isolated rat liver nuclei is digested by an endogenous Ca++ and Mg+’ dependent endonuclease into fragments which are integral multiples of a unit length. Louie has found [2] that DNA from mouse liver nuclei or from the nucleoprotein complex of p...
متن کاملDNA repeat lengths of erythrocyte chromatins differing in content of histones H1 and H5.
Among the erythrocytes of chicken, trout, carp, and sucker, the relative proportion of the lysine-rich histone H5 varied from 20 to 0% of the total histones. Following digestion of nuclear chromatin with micrococcal nuclease, each of them displayed a longer DNA repeat length and greater repeat length heterogeneity than found in liver chromatin. Fish erythrocytes possessed similar repeat lengths...
متن کاملMultiacetylated forms of H4 are found in a putative transcriptionally competent chromatin fraction from trout testis
We have examined the distribution of acetylated histones derived from various trout testis chromatin fractions of different composition. Our results indicate that a chromatin fraction, preferentially solubilized by micrococcal nuclease, containing the bulk of the HMG proteins and similar to a fraction released from intact trout nuclei and previously shown to be enriched in transcribed DNA seque...
متن کاملTrout testis cells. 3. Acetylation of histones in different cell types from developing trout testis.
Acetylation of histones has been observed in both the spermatocytes and spermatids from developing trout testis. In the former cell type, both histone synthesis and extensive acetylation occur, whereas in the spermatids there is histone acetylation, but very little synthesis. The half-life of the histone acetyl groups is approximately 23 hours in the prespermatid cells. It is suggested that the...
