Non-histone chromatin proteins synthesized during chicken embryonic liver development were labeled with [3H]tryptophan and [3H]methionine and characterized by electrophoresis. During embryonic development protein/DNA ratio in chromatin was low (1.30-1.62) but synthesis of non-histone protein was high. Especially one characteristic fraction K (MW 18 000), tightly bound with DNA was preferentially associated with DNAase II sensitive, active transcribed sequences. In 7-day old and adult chicken synthesis of all non-histone proteins was low, fraction K was absent or synthesized only in small amounts in association with non-active sequences, however protein/DNA ratio in chromatin was high (2.30-2.33).  相似文献

Summary Incorporation of three various amino acids ([3H]-tryptophan, [3H]-methionine or [3H]-leucine) into the non-histone chromatin proteins, synthesized in spleen cells of mice after immunization with IgG, is described. Two new fractions of non-histone chromatin proteins (I-mol. wt. below 3 000 and B1-mol. wt. about 120 000), appearing during the immune reaction were labelled with [3H]-tryptophan and [3H]-methionine but not with [3H]-leucine. Synthesis of these fractions was observed only at the time of maximal RNA synthesis. A suggestion about the role of tryptophan and methionine in non-histone chromatin proteins in the regulatory processes of gene activation is discussed on the basis of their selective binding to DNA.  相似文献

Water-soluble chromatin from rat submandibular gland nuclei was isolated, and had a DNA: RNA:protein ratio of 8:1:20. The spectral properties of this preparation were similar to those described for chromatins from other tissues. The rat submandibular gland chromatin possessed protein phosphokinase activity. It was able to incorporate 32P from [γ-32P]-ATP into chromatin proteins, and into dephospho-phosvitin. The chromatin-associated protein phosphokinase activity (measured with dephospho-phosvitin as substrate) required Mg2+, Na+ or K+ and dithiothreitol for optimal activity. A single injection of isoproterenol influenced the activity of this enzyme system, so that it was decreased at 2 h, showed a transient increase at 4 h, and a large increase at 10–16 h after the injection. This event appears to precede the increase in ribosomal RNA induced by Ipr [13]. By 48 h the chromatin-associated protein kinase returned to the normal control levels. These changes appeared to be commensurate with the corresponding alterations in the non-histone acidic protein complement of these chromatins. Actinomycin D or cycloheximide, when administered 30 min prior to isoproterenol, blocked the increase in chromatin-associated protein kinase at 4 as well as 10 h after the injection of isoproterenol. Injection of pilocarpine did not influence the chromatin-associated protein phosphokinase activity. Dichloroisoproterenol appeared to be antagonistic to the influence of isoproterenol in mediating changes in chromatin-associated protein kinase. The results suggest that the isoproterenol-induced increase in chromatin-bound protein phosphokinase which precedes the increase in RNA synthesis is related to the eventual onset of DNA synthesis in rat submandibular gland stimulated by isoproterenol. The chromatin-bound protein phosphokinase activity (or activities) may have a regulatory role on gene action, mediated through the control of phosphorylation of nuclear non-histone acidic proteins [26].  相似文献

Non-histone protein-DNA complexes with acceptor activity for estradiol-receptor complexes were reconstituted from fractionated calf uterine chromatin. Acceptor activity had tissue specificity with target tissue binding exceeding non-target tissue binding. The binding of estradiol-receptor complexes to acceptor sites was dependent on intact non-histone protein-DNA complexes, reconstituted select non-histone proteins, and protein equivalent: DNA reconstitution ratios. [3H]Estradiol-receptor complexes were bound to reconstituted non-histone protein-DNA complexes (i.e., nucleoacidic protein) with a high affinity and with a limited number of binding sites. Fractionation of uterine chromatin non-histone proteins identified two major sets of non-histone proteins which had acceptor activity when reconstituted with DNA. Thus, it seems possible to reconstitute nucleoacidic protein fractions with specific acceptor activity for the calf uterine estrogen receptor.  相似文献

Summary Non-histone proteins of normal, non-immunized rats and rats immunized with mouse spleen cells were labelled with three different amino acids: [3H]tryptophan, [3H]methionine and [3H]leucine. Chromatin was fractionated at increasing salt concentrations into three fractions: 0.35 M NaCl-soluble, 2 M NaCl-soluble and residual. Non-histone protein fractions F (Mr 12 000) and H (Mr 3 000) highly labelled with [3H]tryptophan, lower with [3H]methionine but not with [3H]leucine, were present mainly in the residual fraction. After DNAse II treatment non-histone protein fractions F and H disappeared in chromatin fractions and were present in Mg2– soluble fractions which suggests that, similar to the fractions I (Mr below 3 000) and B (Mr 120 000) described previously (5), these fractions may be associated with active transcribed genes.  相似文献

Protein synthesis and transport in the regenerating goldfish visual system   总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13  
The nature of the proteins synthesized in the goldfish retina and axonally transported to the tectum during optic nerve regeneration has been examined. Electrophoretic analysis of labeled soluble retinal proteins by fluorography verified our previous observation of a greatly enhanced synthesis of the microtubule subunits. In addition, labeling of a tubulin-like protein in the retinal particulate fraction was also increased during regeneration. Like soluble tubulin, the particulate material had an apparent MW of 53–55K and could be tyrosylated in the presence of cycloheximide and [3H]tyrosine. Comparison of post-crush and normal retinal proteins by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis also revealed a marked enhancement in the labeling of two acidic 68–70K proteins. Analysis of proteins slowly transported to the optic tectum revealed changes following nerve crush similar to those observed in the retina, with enhanced labeling of both soluble and particulate tubulin and of 68–70K polypeptides. The most striking change in the profile of rapidly transported protein was the appearance of a labeled 45K protein which was barely detectable in control fish.  相似文献

1. The protein/DNA ratio in chromatin of spleen cells increased during immunization; the ratio was the highest at the time of the maximum antibody synthesis, then decreased to the control values. 2. In the spleen cells of mice immunized with sheep red blood cells or aggregated human gamma-globulin, several characteristic fractions of non-histone chromatin proteins were preferentially synthesized: two antigen-specific fractions were observed in the phase of IgM and IgG synthesis, respectively, and the third, unspecific fraction was detected when the antibody synthesis ceased.  相似文献

Chromatin fractions from rat liver nuclei digested by nucleases were separated by differential solubility into several fractions. Material solubilized during digestion (predominantly monomer nucleosomes and polynucleosomes) had the highest HMG14 + 17/DNA ratios but were not enriched in active gene sequences (albumin and c-Ha-ras1 genes). Material soluble in a low ionic strength buffer containing 0.2 mM MgCl2 (monomer nucleosomes and polynucleosomes) contained in addition to the histones, HMG14 and 17 plus a 41K non-histone protein. This fraction was depleted in active gene sequences and enriched in inactive sequences. The insoluble material was highly enriched in active sequences and had the lowest HMG14 + 17/DNA ratio. This fraction could be further fractionated into a histone-containing 2 M NaCl-soluble fraction and a 2 M NaCl-insoluble matrix-bound fraction, both of which were enriched in active sequences. The results show that the HMG proteins do not partition with active sequences during fractionation of chromatin. The 41K protein may be associated with inactive chromatin fraction.  相似文献

The chemical composition of chromatin from the livers of 12-, 15- and 19-day-old embryos, of 1-day-old chicks and of adult chickens was analysed. The process of embryonic development is accompanied by an increase in non-histone chromatin proteins and chromatin RNA, as well as in the phosphorus content of chromatin phosphoproteins. The amount of these components decreases in the livers of 1-day-old chicks and adults. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of acid-soluble chromatin proteins showed an increase in the amount of the H1 histone in 19-day-old embryos and adult chickens. Non-histone proteins of embryo liver chromatin showed a high content of the fraction of Mr of about 40 000; this was not the case for adult chickens. The non-histone protein fraction of Mr of about 120 000, characteristic of adult chicken liver proteins, was not found in the livers of 12- and 15-day-old embryos. Non-histone chromatin proteins isolated from the livers of animals of different age exhibited also quantitative differences.  相似文献
