چکیده
There are numerous glycoproteins recognized by Concanavalin A (ConA) and Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA) in 0.35 mol/l NaCl soluble fraction of chromatin proteins loosely bound to DNA from hamster, chicken and frog liver cells. Results of our detailed comparative analysis show a marked similarity between liver chromatin glycoproteins from the examined animals. The presence of similar chromatin glycoproteins in different animal species may indicate that they play an important universal role in the liver cells.

Study of the loosely bound non-histone chromatin proteins. Stimulation of deoxyribonucleic acid-templated ribonucleic acid synthesis by a specific deoxyribonucleic acid-binding phosphoprotein fraction.
The loosely bound chromatin proteins of Ehrlich ascites hyperdiploid cells have been prepared by extraction of chromatin with 0.35 M NaCl. Sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis of the 0.35 M NaCl-soluble chromatin proteins reveals high heterogeneity with a molecular weight range of 10,000 to 170,000. The 0.35 M NaCl-soluble chromatin proteins contain many components similar to the more tig...
متن کاملجداسازی پروتئین LMG از بافت کبد موش و میانکنش آن با
ABSTRACT In eukaryote cells, DNA is complexed with a series of basic proteins making units of chromatin structure named nucleosomes. In addition, nonhistone proteins with different function are the components of chromatin. Among these proteins, a group with a low mobility on gel electrophoresis have been identified and named LMG. In this study a LMG protein with a molecular weigh of 160 ...
متن کاملDNA-binding activity of tightly-bound nonhistone chromosomal proteins in chicken liver chromatin.
We have isolated a nonhistone chromosomal protein fraction from chicken liver chromatin which possesses high affinity and preferential sequence DNA binding. Residually DNA-bound nonhistone chromosomal proteins after 2.0 M NaCl extraction of bulk chromatin are isolated. Bound proteins are released by dissociation of the complexes in 5.0 M urea/3.0 M NaCl. We have investigated the in vitro DNA-bi...
متن کاملThe effect of aspirin on the interaction of histone 05 and 05-DNA
The linker histones (H1 or H5) which play a key role in the folding of chromatin, are general repressors of gene expression. Nuclei of the mature chicken erythrocytes (and in some mammalian cells) contain both of them. Although the interaction of H5 with DNA is stronger than that of H1, it does not prevent the transcription of some erythroid-specific genes. It has been shown that some modificat...
متن کامل[Letter to the Editor] DNA Fragmentation Is Not Associated with Apoptosis in Zerumbone-induced HepG2 Cells
Zerumbone is a cytotoxic compound isolated from the herbal plant, Zingiber zerumbet Smith, which exhibits antitumor activity [1-2], anti-inflammatory effects and possesses anti-proliferative potentials in a variety of cell lines [3-4]. DNA fragmentation indicates an early event of apoptosis leading to cell death due to the absence of new cellular proteins synthesizing for cell survival. Previou...
