Abstract: | In nuclear extract of HeLa cells two proteins were identified having the specific binding activity to cloned 1.8kb fragment of human satellite DNA III (HS3). One of the satellite binding proteins (SBP1) purified by column chromatography using DEAE-, phospho- and DNA-cellulose steps interacted also with adenovirus 5 replication enhancer (ARE), another protein (SBP2) was separated during phosphocellulose chromatography from ARE-binding protein. It is suggested that SBP1 is possibly identical to the nuclear factor I purified earlier from the nuclear extract of HeLa cells by other authors. |
