Abstract

Nuclei from Bactrocera oleaeand Ceratitis capitatalarvae contain a major protein that shares most of the characteristics of vertebrate high mobility group (HMG) proteins. Proteins are extracted from nuclei with 0.35 M NaCl, are soluble in 5% perchloric acid, are relatively small (molecular weight in the range of 10–16 kDa), and have both a high basic and a high acidic amino acid content. The amino acid constitution of these proteins is similar to that of the HMGB protein family of vertebrates. The proteins cross-react with antibodies raised against the HMGD chromosomal protein of Drosophila melanogaster.The possible relatedness of these proteins to high mobility group proteins is discussed.
