title: Effects of polyamine hydrochlorides on dephosphorylation of phosphorylated H2B histone integrated into nucleosome core particles.
abstract: The rate of dephosphorylation of isolated P-H2B histone by pig heart phosphoprotein phosphatase (Mr = 224,000) and its catalytic subunit (Mr = 31,000) was suppressed more than 95% at low ionic strength when the substrate was integrated into nucleosome core particles. The suppressed rate was increased 13-43-fold by polyamine hydrochlorides and Mg(CH3COO)2 at the optimal ionic strength of 0.2-0.38 M. Phosphatase activity toward integrated P-H2B histone was distributed in both rat liver cytosol and nuclear extracts. The phosphatase activities in these fractions showed similar specific activities and were also increased 10-32-fold by 10 mM spermine.4HCl.
