Relationship between chromatin bridges in anaphase and chromosomal aberrations induced by TMP+UVA (365 nm) in CHO cells [PDF]
In a recent paper, the hypothesis of 'conservative pairing' between complementary DNA strands belonging to both sister chromatids has been proposed as a phenomenon that could account for, at least in part, sister chromatid pairing in late G(2)/mitosis ...
