Abstract

Mouse-human hybrid cells preferentially segregating mouse chromosomes contain predominantly human histone mRNAs and synthesize human histone proteins. In contrast, hybrids segregating human chromosomes contain both human and murine histone mRNAs, yet synthesize only mouse histone proteins. These results suggest transcriptional control of histone gene expression in hybrids segregating mouse chromosomes and post-transcriptional regulation in hybrids segregating human chromosomes.
