abstract：:Using in vitro replication assays, we compared native with salt-treated simian virus 40 minichromosomes isolated from infected cell nuclei. Minichromosomes from both preparations contain the full complement of nucleosomes, but salt treatment removes histone H1 and a fraction of nonhistone chromatin proteins. Both type...
