Abstract

Limited digestion of trout testis nuclei with DNase I selectively degrades the protamine genes. Concomitant with the degradation of transcribed DNA sequences a series of chromosomal proteins are released; among these, the major species corresponds to the high mobility group protein H6. The amounts of H6 released from chromatin by limited DNase I action and that in the residual nuclear pellet have been determined. A very high proportion of H6 is associated with DNase I sensitive chromatin regions.
