Proteins from the sperm of the bivalve mollusc Ensis minor. Co-existence of histones and a protamine-like protein

Analysis of the total protein of the mature sperm of the bivalve mollusc Ensis minor (razor shell) using gel electrophoresis, amino acid analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance, circular dichroism and trypsin digestion, show it to contain all five histones plus a protamine-like protein. The histones H3...

description Analysis of the total protein of the mature sperm of the bivalve mollusc Ensis minor (razor shell) using gel electrophoresis, amino acid analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance, circular dichroism and trypsin digestion, show it to contain all five histones plus a protamine-like protein. The histones H3, H4 and probably H2A are similar to those from calf thymus or sea urchin sperm, but the putative H2B appears to have a very high molecular mass (about 20 kDa). The histone H1 molecule is unusual, having little or no proline and 8-10 residues of histidine. The protamine-like species is rich in both lysine as well as arginine and is of much higher molecular mass than fish sperm protamines. Nucleosomes containing the four core histones have been prepared and the nucleosomal repeat shown to be 200 +/- 5 base pairs. Checks for the absence of contaminating cells reinforce the conclusion that a histone-containing nucleosomal structure co-exists with a protamine-like protein in this sperm chromatin.
