Fixation with picric acid or formaldehyde retains incorporated [(3)H]acetate which is lost after fixation with ethanol and acetic acid. Unlike [(3)H]uridine, [(3)H]acetate is diffusely incorporated into polytene chromosomes, and not preferentially into existing or newly induced puffs. It is suggested that puff formation does not include an acetylation of histones.
用苦味酸或甲醛固定可保留掺入的[³H]乙酸盐,而用乙醇和乙酸固定后该物质会丢失。与[³H]尿苷不同,[³H]乙酸盐会分散地掺入多线染色体中,而不是优先掺入现有的或新诱导的胀泡中。这表明胀泡形成不包括组蛋白的乙酰化。
