title: Spermidine inhibits degradation of yeast chromatin.
abstract: A procedure has been developed for the isolation of intact yeast chromatin from yeast nuclei. Autodigestion of chromatin observed during nuclear preparation was inhibited by the addition of 5 mM spermidine. The procedure is useful for the analysis of proteins associated with yeast chromatin.
