Natural selection reduced diversity on human y chromosomes. [PDF]
The human Y chromosome exhibits surprisingly low levels of genetic diversity. This could result from neutral processes if the effective population size of males is reduced relative to females due to a higher variance in the number of offspring from males

Chromosomes distribute randomly to, but not within, human neutrophil nuclear lobes
Summary: The proximity pattern and radial distribution of chromosome territories within spherical nuclei are random and non-random, respectively. Whether this distribution pattern is conserved in the partitioned or lobed nuclei of polymorphonuclear cells

Scanning conductance microscopy investigations on fixed human chromosomes
Scanning conductance microscopy investigations were carried out in air on human chromosomes fixed on pre-fabricated SiO2 surfaces with a backgate. The point of the investigation was to estimate the dielectric constant of fixed human chromosomes in order ...

Small supernumerary marker chromosomes derived from human chromosome 11
Introduction: With only 39 reported cases in the literature, carriers of a small supernumerary marker chromosome (sSMC) derived from chromosome 11 represent an extremely rare cytogenomic condition.Methods: Herein, we present a review of reported sSMC(11),

Staining and Embedding of Human Chromosomes for 3-D Serial Block-Face Scanning Electron Microscopy
The high-order structure of human chromosomes is an important biological question that is still under investigation. Studies have been done on imaging human mitotic chromosomes using mostly 2-D microscopy methods.

Viruses and their effect on human chromosomes
This investigation was performed in order to study the effect of nononcogenic viruses on human chromosomes. Measles, chickenpox and mumps cases were selected and peripheral leukocyte cultures were obtained for chromosomal analyses.

Karyotyping human chromosomes by optical and X-ray ptychography methods [PDF]
Sorting and identifying chromosomes, a process known as karyotyping, is widely used to detect changes in chromosome shapes and gene positions. In a karyotype the chromosomes are identified by their size and therefore this process can be performed by ...

Three-dimensional maps of all chromosomes in human male fibroblast nuclei and prometaphase rosettes [PDF]
Studies of higher-order chromatin arrangements are an essential part of ongoing attempts to explore changes in epigenome structure and their functional implications during development and cell differentiation.

Sorting of chromosomes by magnetic separation [PDF]
Chromosomes were isolated from Chinese hamster x human hybrid cell lines containing four and nine human chromosomes. Human genomic DNA was biotinylated by nick translation and used to label the human chromosomes by in situ hybridization in suspension ...

Painting of human chromosomes with probes generated from hybrid cell lines by PCR with Alu and L1 primers [PDF]
Specific amplification of human sequences of up to several kb length has recently been accomplished in man-hamster and man-mouse somatic hybrid cell DNA by IRS-PCR (interspersed repetitive sequence — polymerase chain reaction).
