Popis: In this report, we tested two commercial preparations of DNase I for their effect on histone H1 and its recognition by a monoclonal anti-H1 antibody. Our results indicate that digestion with the DNase I preparation of a lesser grade results in the complete proteolysis and loss of antigenicity of histone H1 even though this preparation is adversited as containing less than 0.01% chymotrypsin and less than 0.005% protease
