In tsBN2 cells, a temperature-sensitive (ts) mutant of the BHK21 cell line, with a ts-defect in its regulatory system for chromosome condensation, antigens that react with mitotic specific mouse monoclonal antibody MPM-2 were produced when premature chromosome condensation (PCC) was induced by a temperature shift. The polypeptides of antigens recognized by MPM-2 in tsBN2 cells with PCC were identical to those of antigens in mitotic cells. These antigens appeared concomitantly with chro-mosome condensation, which suggests that these mitotic-specific antigens may be related to chromosome condensation. As the production of mitotic-specific antigens was inhibited by W-7, a specific and potent antagonist of calmodulin, calmodulin may function in the mitotic phosphorylation of nonhistone protein.
