[The nucleoprotein fraction of mouse serum in normal and pathological processes]

Analysis of the blood serum of healthy and infected with malaria plasmodium mice showed a steep rise in content of linear double-stranded DNA (0.2-0.5 and 2-15 gamma/ml, respectively). Some physico-chemical properties of serum DNA and a DNA-associated glycoprotein (M approximately 40 kDa) are determined.
