  • Title: [An analysis of the chromosomal combinations in dicentrics with induced telomeric fusion].
    Author: Stobetskiĭ VI, Chebotarev AN, Mironova LL.
    Journal: Tsitologiia; 1994; 36(1):60-3. PubMed ID: 7809959.
    Abstract:
    Chinese hamster heteroploid cell culture was treated by colcemide for 42 h, of which within the first 17 h by 5-bromedeoxyuridine. Dicentric chromosomes, that were formed at the 2nd mitosis after colcemide administration, were analysed using G-banding. Of 211, only 40 were made of heterological dicentrics. Other 171 dicentrics were formed by telomeric fusion of autological chromosomes. No correlation was found between the length, centromeric index and frequency of dicentric formation. A probability of telomeric fusion of chromosomes determined by nucleotide sequences specific for each chromosome is proposed.
