## Abstract A fraction containing liver‐ and hepatoma‐specific nonhistone proteins has been isolated from the chromatin of mice. Amino acid analysis of this fraction shows that it contains 16 mol of glutamic acid, 10 mol aspartic acid, 7 mol of both arginine and lysine per 100 mol and contains no c

✦ Synopsis
A pool of nuclear proteins from adult worms of Schistosorna rnansoni was analyzed for amino acid cornposition and found to be compatible with high mobility group (HMG) proteins. One of the schistosome HMG proteins was identified as HMG 2 by one-dimensional and two-dimensional PAGE. Stage-specific differences in the HMG-like protein composition were encountered when adult worms were compared to schistosomula, the larval form. Immobilization of the adult male and female nuclear proteins onto nitrocellulose, followed by hybridization against 3zP-F-10, a schistosome sex specific gene encoding a major egg shell protein, revealed distinct banding patterns. On the other hand, a synthetic oligonucleotide, derived from the 3'untranslated end of the F-I 0 gene and possibly containing one regulatory element of the gene, bound mainly to male low MW proteins.
