1. Phosphorylation of acid-soluble chromatin proteins from thymus or liver of calf, rabbit, pig, rat, rooster and trout by purified cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase was studied in vitro using acetic acid-urea slab gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. 2. HMG 14, histone H1 and an unknown band representing probably a proteolytic fragment of histone H1 were phosphorylated in all mammals studied. 3. In avian liver, HMG 14 showed no phosphorylation and histone H1 was replaced by a H1(0)/H5-like heavily phosphorylated protein. 4. The only 32P-acceptor in trout liver apparently belongs to the C/D-family of acid-soluble chromatin proteins. H6-protein was not phosphorylated.

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.

D013045 Species Specificity The restriction of a characteristic behavior, anatomical structure or physical system, such as immune response; metabolic response, or gene or gene variant to the members of one species. It refers to that property which differentiates one species from another but it is also used for phylogenetic levels higher or lower than the species.

D013950 Thymus Gland A single, unpaired primary lymphoid organ situated in the MEDIASTINUM, extending superiorly into the neck to the lower edge of the THYROID GLAND and inferiorly to the fourth costal cartilage. It is necessary for normal development of immunologic function early in life. By puberty, it begins to involute and much of the tissue is replaced by fat.
