I examined, in three separate studies, the active chromatin
structure of the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Yeast contains four proteins having amino acid compositions
typical of the high mobility group (HMG) proteins. Three of these
are eluted from chromatin by 0.35 M NaCl; one is not, but is eluted
by 0.25...
The aim of this study was to gain more information about the
interactions between DNA and the histone octamer during the
process of transcription. This work used a pUC8 plasmid derivative
that contained the core promoter region of the RNA polymerase I of
Acanthamoeba castellanii, placed upstream of four repeats...
