Ionic and nonionic interactions in adenoviral nucleoprotein complexes.
Ionic and nonionic interactions between the adenoviral histone-like proteins and DNA were examined by determining effects of ionic strength and urea concentration on disruption of viral nucleoprotein. The viral proteins were as susceptible to dissociation by salt in the presence of urea as histones. Nonionic interactions between viral proteins appeared more extensive than those between histones.
