Preferred term

Chromosomal Proteins, Non-Histone  

Type

  • mesh:Descriptor

Definition

  • Nucleoproteins, which in contrast to HISTONES, are acid insoluble. They are involved in chromosomal functions; e.g. they bind selectively to DNA, stimulate transcription resulting in tissue-specific RNA synthesis and undergo specific changes in response to various hormones or phytomitogens.

Entry terms

  • Chromosomal Proteins, Non Histone
  • Chromosomal Proteins, Nonhistone
