Characterization of DNA-protein complexes from the mitochondria of Xenopus laevis oocytes.

???displayArticle.abstract???
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)-protein complexes (nucleoids) from Xenopus laevis oocytes were purified either on rate-zonal sucrose or isopyknic metrizamide gradients. From electron microscopic studies and staphylococcal nuclease digestion experiments mtDNA appears to be packaged into regular beaded structures. Protein electrophoretic analysis and M banding results show that mtDNA is associated with the membrane structures and also with few specific proteins including one acid-soluble polypeptide of 28 kD.
