In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Formation of Nucleoproteins 2. Types of Nucleoprotein 3. Synthesis. Formation of Nucleoproteins: Nucleoproteins contain phosphoric acid and also other prosthetic group. Hence, they should be placed in a special class. Nucleoproteins are formed by the union of nucleic acid with basic protein. The nucleic acids, viz., deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid [...]

Nucleoproteins are conjugated proteins containing nucleic acids and basic protein-like protamine's or histones. In nucleoproteins there are salt-like combination between positively charged basic proteins and negatively charged nucleic acids. Cytoplasm also contains ribonucleoprotein which is found particularly in ribosomes. All living cells contain nucleoproteins and some of the simplest systems, such as viruses, consist entirely of nucleoproteins. Protamine's: 1. These [...]
