Conserved epitopes on plant H1 histones recognized by monoclonal antibodies.

L Mazzolini1, M Vaeck, M van Montagu.   

Abstract

A series of monoclonal antibodies specific for distinct regions of H1 histone from the plant Nicotiana tabacum were obtained from fusion experiments with spleen cells of mice immunized with tobacco nuclear extracts. These monoclonal antibodies were characterized and the evolutionary conservation of the epitopes in higher plants and animals studied by immunoblotting and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Whereas some epitopes appear restricted to the Solanaceae plant family, others are common to all higher eukaryotes tested and even detectable on nuclear proteins of yeast. ELISA experiments performed with isolated tobacco chromatin give some indications of the differential accessibility of the epitopes after interaction of H1 histone with the nucleosome.
