Evidence for the location of high mobility group protein T in the internucleosomal linker regions of trout testis chromatin. 1979

E H Peters, and B Levy-Wilson, and G H Dixon

Antibodies against the trout testis non"histone chromosomal protein, high mobility group protein T (HMG-T), have been elicited in goats. The antiserum was shown to be specific for HMG-T and did not cross-react with histone 1 or with the other two trout testis HMG proteins, H6 and ubiquitin. Purified anti-HMG-T IgG was used to determine the location of HMG-T within chromatin subunits separated on sucrose gradients. Binding of fluorescent labeled anti-HMG-T to these subunits clearly supports the notion that this protein is associated not with the nucleosome core but rather with the internucleosomal linker regions, and previously suggested (Levy W., B., Wong, N.C.W., and Dixon, G. H. (1977) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 74, 2810-2814).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D002843 Chromatin The material of CHROMOSOMES. It is a complex of DNA; HISTONES; and nonhistone proteins (CHROMOSOMAL PROTEINS, NON-HISTONE) found within the nucleus of a cell. Chromatins
D002868 Chromosomal Proteins, Non-Histone Nucleoproteins, which in contrast to HISTONES, are acid insoluble. They are involved in chromosomal functions; e.g. they bind selectively to DNA, stimulate transcription resulting in tissue-specific RNA synthesis and undergo specific changes in response to various hormones or phytomitogens.

D003429 Cross Reactions Serological reactions in which an antiserum against one antigen reacts with a non-identical but closely related antigen. Cross Reaction,Reaction, Cross,Reactions, Cross
D005455 Fluorescent Antibody Technique Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D013737 Testis The male gonad containing two functional parts: the SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES for the production and transport of male germ cells (SPERMATOGENESIS) and the interstitial compartment containing LEYDIG CELLS that produce ANDROGENS. Testicles,Testes,Testicle
D014337 Trout Various fish of the family SALMONIDAE, usually smaller than salmon. They are mostly restricted to cool clear freshwater. Some are anadromous. They are highly regarded for their handsome colors, rich well-flavored flesh, and gameness as an angling fish. The genera Salvelinus, Salmo, and ONCORHYNCHUS have been introduced virtually throughout the world. Chars,Salvelinus,Char
