From rat liver nuclei depending on the extraction time, 10 to 20% of total chromatin has been extracted with a solution containing 0.1 M ammonium sulfate, 2 mM MnCl2, 0.1 M Tris-HCl, pH 7.9. We term this chromatin chromatin S. It has a protein: DNA ratio of 1.3, the full amount of the 5 histones in an undegraded state, and a RNA: DNA ratio of approximately 0.2. Its nonhistone protein pattern, obtained by gel electrophoresis exhibits a rich spectrum of proteins in a broad range of molecular weights. Electrophoretic analysis of the DNA fragments obtained by micrococcus nuclease digestion of chromatin S yields the same digestion pattern as that of nuclei. Thus, chromatin S fulfils an essential criterion of unsheared chromatin. In contrast to other chromatin preparations described so far, this chromatin is soluble at a salt concentration of 0.1 M ammonium sulfate. We have shown previously that it exhibits a compact conformation, low intrinsic viscosity and low radius of gyration obtained by light scattering measurements. Its mean molecular weight was determined to be nearly 10(8).
