Abstract

We have shown that quiescent cells as well as those in the G1 phase of the cell cycle synthesize histones at a reduced but significant rate. Now, we show that the histones synthesized during G0 and G1 are stably incorporated into nuclei soon after synthesis. Micrococcal nuclease digestion of nuclei isolated from cells in G0 and G1 revealed that the specific histone variants synthesized in these different physiological states are found associated with DNA as nucleosomes. Nucleosomes were separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in a reducing buffer so that histone spot morphology, particularly that of the H3s was improved.
