Descriptor nucleoplasminas
Scope note: Familia de chaperonas moleculares de histonas que desempeñan papeles en la descondensación de la CROMATINA del esperma y en el ENSAMBLAJE DE LA CROMATINA en los huevos fertilizados. Fueron descubiertas originalmente en extractos de huevos de XENOPUS como factores de unión a histonas que mediaban en la formación de nucleosomas in vitro.
