Standard cytogenetic techniques enable all human chromosomes to be stained and identified individually by their unique banding patterns. Routine cytogenetic analysis has a 400–500 band resolution and ...

THE structure of DNA is now known and the external form of mitotic chromosomes of higher organisms is fairly well characterized in the light microscope. However, the way in which chromosomes are ...

A team of scientists studying cell division developed a special light microscopy system and used it to analyze the molecular density of cellular environments. Their results provide a novel insight ...

Jenny Graves receives funding from the Australian Research Council. If you look at cells from a human or other mammal under a microscope, you’ll see big fat molecular complexes called chromosomes that ...

Agrobacterium tumefaciens magnified 15,000 times in an image captured earlier this year with a scanning electron microscope at Iowa State University's Roy J. Carver High Resolution Microscopy Facility ...

Errors in mitosis that cause chromosomes to lag behind during cell division cause the formation of micronuclei. These extra-nuclear bodies containing damaged chromosomes, or chromosome fragments, are ...

There’s a new argument against “junk DNA.” In this microscope image, the ends of chromosomes are protected by specific DNA sequences called telomeres, visualized here in red. Credit: National ...
