Genetic polymorphism of erythrocyte histone H1 in Japanese quail.

Abstract:

:Histone H1 from erythrocytes of Japanese quail was resolved in a sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel into five fractions differing in apparent molecular weights. A polymorphism of histone H1.1, H1.2, and H1.3 bands was detected among quail individuals. While some birds possessed either a high (phenotype .3+) or a low (phenotype .3+/.3-) level of H1.3, at least half of the quail population lacked this H1 band (phenotype .3-). Appropriate genetic crosses demonstrated that H1.3 behaved as though it was coded by a gene with two codominant alleles at an autosomal locus. Using two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (acid-urea followed by SDS gels), it was found that birds .3+ contained polypeptides H1.b1 and H1.b'1; birds .3-, polypeptides H1.b2 and H1.b'2 with lower apparent molecular weights; and birds .3+/.3-, both types of polypeptides in equal proportions. The H1.b2 + H1.b'2 complement was not discernible in SDS gels, for it migrated together with H1.c' within band H1.4. It was found that a small number of birds lacking the H1.2 band in SDS gels failed to express histone H1.a. Since birds with phenotype .2- with a defective allele of the gene H1.a were simultaneously lacking the H1.3 band, it seems that the imperfect allele of the H1.a gene might be closely linked to the alleles producing H1.b2 + H1.b'2.
