To determine the effect of cell cycle position on protein synthesis, synchronized cell populations were metabolically labeled and the synthesis of the basic proteins, including histones, was examined by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Exponentially growing S49 mouse lymphoma or Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells were separated into G1 and S phase populations by centrifugal elutriation, selective mitotic detachment, fluorescence-activated cell sorting, or a combination of these, and pulse-labeled with radiolabeled amino acids. The histone proteins, both free and chromatin-bound, were completely resolved from some 300 other basic polypeptides in whole-cell lysates by a modification of the NEPHGE [nonequilibrium 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis] technique of O''Farrell, Goodman and O''Farrell (1977). Comparisons of matched autoradiograms from samples of G1 and S phase labeled cells revealed an equivalent rate of histone synthesis through the cell cycle of both S49 and CHO cells. Nuclei isolated from G1 phase S49 cells that were pulse-labeled contained 13-15% of the newly synthesized nucleosomal histones present in S phase nuclei. Nuclei prepared from G1 phase cells that were pulse-labeled and then chased for 5 h contained > 90% of the labeled nucleosomal histones present in whole-cell lysates. Differential alterations in the rate of histone synthesis apparently do not occur to a significant degree as cells proceed through the cycle, but the association of newly synthesized histones with DNA takes place after the onset of DNA replication.
