Isolation and susceptibility to nucleases of transcriptionally active and inactive chromatin fractions from Physarum polycephalum.

Abstract:

:Transcriptionally active and inactive chromatin fractions were isolated from Physarum polycephalum after depolymerization of chromatin with DNAase II or micrococcal nuclease, followed by fractionation in 5 mM-MgCl2. The active fraction of chromatin comprised up to 21% of nuclear DNA and was enriched 22-fold in the labelled nascent RNA. Both chromatin fractions were shown to have the nucleosomal structure. DNA of the active fraction of chromatin was degraded much faster with DNAase I and micrococcal nuclease than the DNA of the inactive fraction.
