title: A comparison of the histone H1 complements of avian erythrocytes.
abstract: 1. Histone H1 from chicken, turkey, duck and goose erythrocytes was resolved into six bands and that from quail into seven bands in an acetic acid-urea polyacrylamide gel. 2. A fast migrating minor subtype H1.e was detected in avian erythrocytes using two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. 3. Although histone subtype H1.z from quail, turkey and duck was well separated in acid-urea gel, a similar protein in goose was found only in two-dimensional gel. This spot was absent in chicken. 4. Histone H1 spots .c, .c' and .d migrate in two-dimensional gel in a relatively constant manner forming a triangle-shaped pattern that facilitates comparison of H1 subtypes among various avian species.
