protamines

Work on these most simple protein bodies, i.e. the protamines, is however not only of great importance because it has explained the structure of such protein bodies.

For certain protamines Kossel, thanks to his methods of determination, has in fact been able to establish the quantitative relationships of the building blocks making up these protamines, a goal which we seem to be far from attaining where the other proteins are concerned.

Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 1910 - Presentation Speech 1967

University of the Saarland in Germany, and colleagues, examined the concentrations of two proteins called protamines P1 and P2, which are crucial to the formation of chromosomes during cell division.

One group which is included here are the so-called protamines obtained from the milt of fish.

It leads from the ordinary proteins, first to the histones, and if the elimination process is carried on still further we arrive at the protamines.

Albrecht Kossel - Nobel Lecture 1967

Working on fish-roe he studied the protamines and hexone bases.

Albrecht Kossel - Biography 1967

But the protamines also differ from one another and are obviously linked by intermediate steps with the histones.

Albrecht Kossel - Nobel Lecture 1967

They stand between the protamines and what is termed ordinary protein.

If the testicles of other fish are submitted to the same investigation, bodies of a much simpler composition are obtained which take the place of the histone in the heads of the sperms; these are protamines.

Albrecht Kossel - Nobel Lecture 1967

Other protamines contain only two or three of the known basic groups.
