Immunological relationships among vertebrate lysine-rich histones.

Shay CE , Foster PG , Neelin JM .

1. The relationship between sequence homology and immunological cross-reaction was investigated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunoblotting using polyclonal antisera against lysine-rich histones (LRH) of known sequence, chicken H1 and H5, trout Hl and Xenopus H1s. 2. The order of immunological relatedness was consistent with known homologies among these LRH and goose H5, but quantitative correlations reflected varied locations of antigenic determinants. 3. When immunoblotting was extended to LRH from eight more vertebrates, it was evident that avian H5, mammalian H1o and anuran H1s form a sub-class, to which turtle H1s may belong, that urodele erythrocytes contain no H5-like histone and that fish "H5" is more like H1 than the H5/H1s/H1o subclass.
