title: Human nuclear matrix contains a protein complex which can specifically recognize alpha-satellite DNA in vitro.
abstract: A nuclear matrix protein complex has been found which specifically binds to alpha-satellite DNA as revealed by gel shift assay. The complex contains three proteins--two DNA-binding proteins with molecular masses of 70 and 80 kD and a 58-kD protein which does not bind DNA but enhances the specificity of binding of the others to alpha-satellite DNA. The complex does not contain CENP-A, CENP-B, CENP-C, CENP-G, or lamins A/C and B.
