Extensive acetylation of four of the five major histones occurs during spermatogenesis in rainbow trout testis. At least one site of acetylation can be detected in histone IIb1, two sites in IIb2, two sites in histone III, and four sites in histone IV. No acetylation of histone I has been observed. The major site of acetylation in IIb1 is at lysyl residue 5. This region of the IIb1 molecule is homologous to the corresponding region in histone IV.
