Distribution of histone variants in the sea urchin chromatin fractions obtained by selective micrococcal nuclease digestion.

???displayArticle.abstract???
Chromatin fractions differing in their transcriptional activity were isolated by selective micrococcal nuclease digestion of nuclei from sea urchin embryos (Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis) at the gastrula and pluteus stage. The electrophoretic analysis of the chromatin proteins at the gastrula stage showed that a soluble, transcriptionally active fraction of chromatin was enriched with early variants of histones H1 and H2A. The early and late variants of histone H2A at the pluteus stage were distributed randomly between chromatin fractions. However, the content of both variants of histone H1 was essentially decreased in the soluble transcriptionally active fraction of chromatin.
