The outer surface of isolated metaphase chromosomes has been investigated by a method of thermally activated tritium labelling. We show that both chromosomal proteins and DNA are tritium-labelled. Fractionation of the chromosomal proteins reveals that scaffold proteins are the most labelled in condensed and EDTA-decondensed chromosomes. Exposition of some scaffold proteins on the outer surface of metaphase chromosomes is suggested.
采用热激活氚标记法对分离出的中期染色体的外表面进行了研究。我们发现染色体蛋白质和DNA都被氚标记了。对染色体蛋白质进行分级分离后发现,在浓缩和经乙二胺四乙酸(EDTA)解聚的染色体中,支架蛋白的标记程度最高。这表明中期染色体外表面存在一些支架蛋白。
