Abstract
Three different phenotypes of erythrocyte histone H1.z were detected in several lines of duck by using two-dimensional PAGE. Electrophoresis and inheritance data have shown that two co-dominant alleles, z1 and z2, encode two proteins which differ slightly in their apparent molecular masses. Allele z1 was very abundant and was found at a frequency at least 0.94, while allele z2 was very rare and was present at a frequency of less than 0.06. Limited chemical and enzymic cleavages appeared to indicate that the allelic forms of histone H1.z differed in the C-terminal regions of their molecules.
