Nuclear glycoproteins in higher vertebrates

Biochem Int. 1991 Jan;23(1):35-42.

Abstract

Nuclear glycoproteins recognized by Concanavalin A have been isolated from pig, rabbit and chicken tissues. Mono and bidimensional electrophoresis patterns of proteins loosely and tightly bound to DNA have been examined. The tissue specificity rather than species-specificity appears to be a quite general property of these proteins, suggesting for them a role in the mechanism of regulation of chromatin functions.
