title: [Characteristics of limited trypsinolysis of histone H5 in a solution and as a component of chromatin with different degrees of compactness].
abstract: Trypsinolysis of histone H5 in solution and as a component of chromatin with different level of compactization was studied. It was demonstrated that the existence of supernucleosomal organization leads to a significant decrease of the degradation rate of histones H1 and H5 in comparison with histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4. Analysis of trypsinolysis electrophoretic spectra of histone H5 revealed the existence of protease-resistant fragments in chromatin, but not in solution. These fragments contain not only the globular domain of histone H5 but also small-sized unstructured N- and/or C-terminal regions. The peptides were identified with the help of an immune serum specific for the globular region of histone H5. The possible role of resistant fragments in the nucleosomal organization of chromatin is discussed.
