Abstract
In this chapter no attempt has been made to cover the literature of histone fractionation and characterization comprehensively, since this has been dealt with adequately in a number of recent reviews [1, 2, 3, 4]. Indeed, the many methods and minor variations thereof for preparing and fractionating histones, together with the different techniques for characterizing the products and the different nomenclatures used, have resulted in an extremely confused and often contradictory comprehensive bibliography.
