A number of criteria were used--chromatography on columns with single-stranded and double-stranded DNA, electrophoresis, peptide analysis, immunological tests and thermal denaturation of DNA--to show that protein (high mobility group) HMG1 and an unwinding protein from calf thymus are two distinct, unrelated proteins. While both proteins are thought to be related to DNA replication this might involve different mechanisms of action.
