Abstract
The DNase I(EC 3.1.21.1) sensitivity of transcribed yeast chromatin has been examined. In contrast to chromatin from higher eukaryotes, transcribed yeast chromatin and total yeast chromatin are equally sensitive to DNase I digestion. The entire yeast genome apparently exists in a state that represents a restricted proportion of total chromatin in higher eukaryotes.Keywords
