—Disc electrophoretic patterns of soluble, acidic proteins in brain and liver nuclei and in the respective tissue homogenates were studied. In brain nuclei, a fast component moving with the electrophoretic front constitutes a relatively large amount of the acidic proteins which migrate toward the anode. Electrophoretic patterns obtained with fractionated brain nuclei (neuronal, astrocytic and glial) were similar to those obtained with total brain nuclei. The S‐100 protein could not be detected in any of the nuclei examined. Protein patterns in brain and liver nuclei markedly differed both quantitatively and qualitatively.
