Higher-order structure of human mitotic chromosomes.
From observations on the partial disintegration of isolated human metaphase chromosomes we propose that human metaphase chromatids have a rather simple organization based on the folding and coiling of a long, regular, hollow cylindrical structure with a diameter of about 4000 A. This cylindrical structure, the unit fiber, is postulated to be a super-solenoid formed by the coiling of a 300 A sol...
متن کاملEffects of Mitomycin C on Human Chromosomes
Mitomycin C (MC) is a chemically reactive antibiotic derived from Streptomyces caespitosus. The drug selectively inhibits DNA synthesis (2, 15, 29, 34, 39, 40, 43, 44, 49) and degrades cellular DNA but does not affect the synthesis of R N A or protein (31, 33, 40). MC induces bacteriophage production in lysogenic bacteria (23, 29), increases the rate of genetic recombination among mutant forms ...
متن کاملEffects of Flow Hydraulics, Pipe Structure and Submerged Jet on Leak Behaviour
The aim of this paper is numerical and experimental study of the effects of flow hydraulics, pipe structure (particularly elastic behaviour) and submerged jet on leak behaviour. In this regard, experimental tests were performed on a high-pressure circulation set up. Experiments were performed on an old steel pipe and a High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipe discharged to the atmosphere in a wide...
متن کاملChromatin structure of active and inactive human X chromosomes.
Nuclei from a variety of human cell lines and tissues were digested with gradually increasing levels of DNase I. The DNA was then purified, treated with restriction enzymes and subjected to Southern blot hybridization using a cloned cDNA probe to 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) a housekeeping enzyme. At relatively high levels of DNase I, a specific, slightly sensitive site in chromatin sequence...
متن کاملDNA catenation maintains structure of human metaphase chromosomes
Mitotic chromosome structure is pivotal to cell division but difficult to observe in fine detail using conventional methods. DNA catenation has been implicated in both sister chromatid cohesion and chromosome condensation, but has never been observed directly. We have used a lab-on-a-chip microfluidic device and fluorescence microscopy, coupled with a simple image analysis pipeline, to digest c...
