Abstract

Starting from restriction enzyme cleavage sites of known topologies the DNA sequences coding for two thirds of the H2B histone protein, together with some 3 inch extracistronic sequences, have been determined for the sea urchin Psammechinus miliaris. This unambiguously identifies this gene and further reveals its 5 inch-3inch polarity and accurate map position in a cloned histone DNA repeat unit.
