    Abstract:
    The histones from slime mold Physarum polycephalum and calf thymus were characterized in terms of some physico-chemical properties. The molecular weights of six principal histone fractions of Ph. polycephalum were found to be the following: P1--22 700, P3--15 700, P4a--15 000, P4b--14 300, P5--12 800 and P6--10 500. Electrophoretically homogenous histone fractions H1, H2b and H4 of calf thymus and histones P1, P3, P4b and P6 of slime mold were obtained by gel-filtration on Acrylex P-60. These findings suggest that fractions P1, P4a, P4b, P5 and P6 of slime mold Ph. polycephalum are homologus with respect to the histone fractions H1, H3, H2b, H2a and H4 of calf thymus. Only fraction P3 has no corresponding fraction in the calf thymus histones; a fraction corresponding to histone P3 of slime mold was absent.
