Abstract excerpt
To determine the changes in chromatin organization during male pronucleus remodeling, we have compared the composition of nucleoprotein particles (NP-ps) resulting from digestion with endogenous nuclease (ENase) and with micrococcal nuclease (MNase). Whole nuclei were isolated from sea urchin gametes and zygotes containing partially decondensed (15 min postinsemination, p.i.) or a fully decondensed (40 min p.i.)...
