Abstract

The arrangement of histones along the DNA in chromosomes has been studied using digestion of the chromatin with DNase and titration of the chromatin with polylysine or certain dyes as probes. The precision of these probes is limited by the extent to which DNA partially covered with histones will react with the enzymes or titration agents used. Furthermore, it has been noted that histones are redistributed along or between DNA fibres under conditions arising during the normal course of isolation and handling of the chromatin. This phenomenon may have strongly influenced the results obtained previously.
