Isolation and partial characterization of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii chromatin
Biochimie
|January 1, 1975
Abstract:
The use of a cell wall less mutant of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii allowed the isolation of the nuclei of this organism. The study of the extracted desoxyribonucleoprotein shows that a set of established properties of the chromatin of higher eucaryotes do not apply to this material. This is particularly the case for the failure to sediment in a good yield. This could be due to a low content in basic proteins of the chromatin of Chlamydomonas.
