Nucleolar phosphoprotein phosphatase from Novikoff hepatoma and rat liver: characterization and partial purification.

Phosphoprotein phosphatase which dephosphorylates 32P-labeled nucleolar protein substrates was found in nucleoli of Novikoff hepatoma ascites cells and normal rat liver. The activity was extracted in high yield from nucleoli with 0.01 M Bis/Tris (pH 7.

The NH2- and COOH-terminal amino acid sequence of nuclear protein A24.

The NH2- and COOH-terminal sequence of nuclear portein A24 has been determined by automatic Edman degradation and carboxypeptidase A and B digestion. Protein A24 is of interest because it is composed in part of histone 2A (Goldknofp, I.L.
