[Study of the template properties and protein composition of the products of postradiation degradation of chromatin in the rat thymus]. / Issledovanie matrichnykh svoistv i belkovogo sostava produktov postradiatsionnoi degradatsii khromatina timusa krys.

In order to verify the assumption that the products of postirradiation degradation of the chromatin originate mainly at the genome sites active in transcription a study was made of the template activity of PDN, its sensitivity to DNAase I, and the protein composition of individual PDN fractions: The radiation-induced chromatin degradation in lymphoid cells was shown to occur in both the active and the repressed genome sites.
