  • Title: Characterization of the heterochromatic chromosome regions in sheep.
    Author: Fernández-García JL, Martínez-Trancón M, Rabasco A, Padilla JA.
    Journal: Genes Genet Syst; 1998 Feb; 73(1):45-50. PubMed ID: 9546206.
    Abstract:
    In order to elucidate the structural chromosome organization of the heterochromatic regions in sheep, we have used C-banding, silver-staining, sequential CDD technique and restriction endonuclease banding. By these banding techniques we obtained four fractions of repetitive DNA, the autosomal fractions A and B, the C fraction in the X chromosome, and the D fraction in the Y chromosome. Silver staining revealed active nucleolus organizer regions (NOR's) on the telomeric GC-rich areas of chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 4, and 25 which were digested with HaeIII restriction endonuclease.
