A genetic aspect of chromatin proteins of human brain tumors.
Electrophoretic analysis of chromatin proteins was performed on rat and human tissues. Species and organ specific patterns were demonstrated in them. Twenty cases of human brain tumours were also analyzed and each tumor had typical phoretic patterns of chromatin. Proteins obtained from histologically similar tumors display similar electrophoretic patterns. As to the ratio of chromatin protein to DNA, no apparent differences between benign and malignant human brain tumors were observed.
