Activation of histone gene transcription by nonhistone chromosomal phosphoproteins.
Hybridization analysis of RNA transcripts from HeLa S3 cell chromatin to histone complementary DNA indicates that a chromosomal phosphoprotein fraction activates transcription of histone messenger RNA sequences in vitro with chromatin from a phase in the cell cycle when histone genes are normally silent.
