X-ray scattering shows that the nucleated erythrocytes of the amphibian Necturus maculosus (Mud Puppy) contain more ordered chromatin than most nuclei. Here, fibers isolated from these nuclei have bee...

At cyst formation in the 'giant' unicellular green alga Acetabularia, each cyst contains a single nucleus which subsequently undergoes several rounds of mitosis prior to gamete formation. Initially t...

Echinoderm sperm nuclei are unusual in that chromatin fibers are clearly seen, allowing their diameter to be accurately determined. Here, sperm from the starfish P. miniata were treated to remove the ...

Phosphorus has a characteristic electron energy loss with an edge at 160 eV. The Zeiss 902 electron microscope permits images to be recorded at different energy losses which can be digitized and proce...

Upon electron bombardment, some elements, such as P, show an electron energy loss profile with a peak at a specific energy loss value. By collecting a series of images of a field at different energy l...

chicken erythrocyte nuclei were allowed to decondense in a low salt high pH buffer, fixed with HCOH, centrifuged onto a carbon coated EM grid, and stained with uranyl acetate. (Spreading technique of ...

The protein MeCP2 binds to symmetrically methylated CpG dinucleotides and is thought to transmit the (generally) repressive signals encoded in DNA methylation patterns. Mutations in MeCP2 lead to Rett...
