Mechanism of DNA-histone crosslinks in UV-irradiated nuclei
Nucleic Acids Symposium Series
|January 1, 1982
Abstract:
Mechanism of the DNA-histone crosslinks in UV-irradiated chicken erythrocyte nuclei has been investigated. It has been demonstrated that the major chemical reaction induced by irradiation of DNA-histone complexes is the crosslinking between lysine and thymine residues and subsequent transfer of thyminyl group from DNA to lysine residues of histones.
