title: Arrangement of histones along DNA in chromosomal deoxyribonucleoprotein lacking histone F1.
abstract: In deoxyribonucleoprotein from which histone F1 and most nonhistone proteins were removed by treatment with tRNA in the presence of Mg(2+), one can find very long stretches of completely free DNA (average length of about 4×10(3) base pairs). They alternate with stretches of DNA (∼16×10(3) base pairs) which are nearly uniformly covered with the other four histones.
