Exogenous histones and chloroplastic DNA function in Chlamydomonas reinhardii.
The effect of exogenous added histones on chloroplastic DNA and RNA synthesis has been studied in whole Chlamydomonas reinhardii cells and in isolated chloroplasts. The observed inhibition is shown to be mainly due to the H1 histone and to result in drastic modifications of the cell cycle.
