ResumoWe have compared the inhibitory strengths of eight peptides from chicken histone H5 to that of the parent protein (189 residues) in complement fixation by guinea pig anti-H5 serum complexed with the homologous histone. Two precisely delineated regions (residues 59 to 65 and 94 to 99) and two less-defined regions (between 66 and 93; 100 and 189) are depicted. The sequences of particular consequences are quite conserved in avian histone H5 while the most variable N-terminal portion of 31 residues has no inhibitory effect.
