[Interaction of the non-histone protein PS1 with some chromatin components].

The binding of non-histone protein from mouse spleen chromatin located in the sites highly sensitive to micrococcal nuclease and DNA-ase I, to DNA and histones was studied. The binding of the DNA-protein complexes to nitrocellulose filters demonstrated the absence of protein binding to DNA. A highly selective binding of protein PS1 to histones H1 and H2A and to one of the non-histone proteins (presumably HMG 14) was revealed. It is concluded that protein PS1 is incorporated into chromatin by the protein-protein interactions.
