Paul J. Isackson, Dennis L. Bidney, Gerald R. Reeck,** Natasha K. Neihart, and Michael Bustin abstract: Using sequential chromatography on columns containing immobilized double-stranded DNA and single-stranded DNA, we have purified a protein from the cytosol of an establisheo line of cultured rat hepatomacells that, by several criteria, is a high mobility group (HMG) protein. Analyses of DNA binding properties, electrophoretic mobilities, amino acid compositions, and immunochemical re-activities reveal that the cytosolic protein is the same protein as HMG-1 isolated from the purified chromatin of the same cell line. Thus, authentic HMG-1 appears to be at least partially responsible for the cytoplasmic fluorescence observed when mammalian cells are stained with fluorescent-labeled, affinity-purified antibodies against HMG-1 [Bustin, M., & Neihart, N. K.(1979) Cell 16, 181-189], We suggest that HMG-1 can shuttle between nucleusand cytoplasm, perhaps in response to the nucleus’ need for helix destabilizingproteins. e high mobility group (HMG) 1 proteins are a class of nonhistone chromatin proteins that can be released from chromatin with 0.35 M NaCl and that are soluble in 2% trichloroacetic acid (Goodwin et al., 1973). The term HMG, which was first applied to proteins from calf thymus, refers to the high mobility that the proteins exhibit in an acid-urea gel electrophoresis system (Goodwin et al., 1973).

Proteinsthat are similar in physical, chemical, or immunochemical properties to the calf thymus HMG proteins have been found in phylogenetically diverse organisms (Watson et al., 1977; Sterner et al., 1978; Spiker et al., 1978; Romani et al., 1979). The HMG proteins were first isolated from chromatin, and they have therefore been thought of as nuclear components. Recently, however, Bustin &Neihart (1979) presented evi-dence that HMG-1 or proteins immunologically cross-reactive with HMG-1 occur in the cytoplasm of several types of cul-tured mammalian cells as well as in the nuclei of the same cells. That evidence was obtained by microscopic observations of
