Title: Human somatic chromosome chains and rings. A preliminary note on end-to-end fusion. Author: Dutrillaux B, Croquette MF, Viegas-Pequignot E, Aurias A, Coget J, Couturier J, Lejeune J. Journal: Cytogenet Cell Genet; 1978; 20(1-6):70-7. PubMed ID: 648191. Abstract: Chain and ring chromosome configurations were detected in a small percentage of the lymphocytes of a patient suffering from Thiberge-Weissenbach syndrome. Precise recognition of the chromosomes involved in the rearrangements did not indicate a systematic order of end-to-end fusions. A relationship between these configurations and the chromosome arrangement in the interphase nucleus is possible.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
