Title: Triradial configurations indicate that expression of the fragile site at Xq27 is non-lethal. Author: Tommerup N. Journal: Ann Genet; 1987; 30(4):231-2. PubMed ID: 3501266. Abstract: The staining pattern of BUdR-substituted sister chromatids in triradial configurations associated with the fragile site at Xq27 is reported. The pattern observed in 2nd- and 3rd-generation cells is compatible with the hypothesis that the triradial configurations are caused by mitotic non-disjunction of the distal fragment in the previous mitotic division. This in turn indicates that cells can survive expression of the fragile site in a previous cell cycle.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
