Popis: The influence of chromatin structure on the accessibility of DNA to the model ultimate carcinogen N-acetoxy-N-2-acetylaminofluorene (N-Aco-AAF) was investigated by means of an immunoelectron microscopic technique developed recently. An homogeneous population of core particles or trinucleosomes from chicken erythrocytes, was submitted to electrophilic attack by N-Aco-AAF. After DNA isolation, N-2-acetylaminofluorene (AAF) binding sites were mapped upon the DNA fragments using specific antibodies as a probe. Our results indicate a non-random binding of AAF along the DNA. Our data support the results of previous studies showing a preferential binding on the linker region.
