title: Partial purification of transcriptionally active nucleosomes from trout testis cells.
abstract: Mononucleosomes (MN1) enriched in structural non-histone proteins and transcribed DNA sequences were obtained by limited digestion of trout testis nuclei with micrococcal nuclease followed by selective solubilization in 0.1 M NaCl. These monosomes consist of the four inner histones plus stoichiometric amounts of the non-histone protein H6, of the HMG group, complexed with 140 base pairs of DNA. Hybridization experiments indicate that MN1 DNA is enriched in sequences complementary to cytoplasmic polyadenylated RNA.
