Abstract
Crude chromatin preparations from pea seedlings contain calcium-dependent deoxyribonuclease activity, at least part of which is endonucleolytic. During germination, there is a dramatic increase in chromatin-bound deoxyribonuclease activity in the embryonic axis immediately prior to the onset of DNA replication. Evidence has been obtained for the presence of an inhibitor of deoxyribonuclease activity in chromatin preparations from embryonic axes not undergoing DNA replication.Entities:
