AbstractVarious lysosomotropic amines have two parallel effects in human lymphocytes: they inhibit the degradation of cellular proteins and increase the migration of nonhistone proteins (NHP) from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. The increased nuclear level of NHP is associated with increased cellular binding of [3H] actinomycin D, indicating an altered structure of chromatin. The agents inhibit the degradation of short‐and long‐lived proteins equally. Fractionation of the [3H] NHP of the nucleus according to pH 2.5‐6.5 shows that [3H] NHP with a high rate of degradation in untreated cells correspond to [3H] NHP with a high rate of migration in cells treated with the agents. Eserine, amantadine, nicotine, atropine, benzylamine, and propranolol inhibit cathepsin D in concentrations causing proteolytic inhibition in cell cultures or in concentrations believed to be attained in lysosomes. The agents strongly inhibit the cellular accumulation of [3H] chloroquine. The data support the proposal that the migration of NHP from the cytoplasm to the nucleus is the direct consequence of inhibited degradation of these proteins in lysosomes by the a
