Intranuclear arrangement of human chromosome 12 is reflected in metaphase chromosomes as non-random bending

Ann Genet. 2004 Oct-Dec;47(4):429-32. doi: 10.1016/j.anngen.2004.07.002.

Abstract

We have found a high correlation of non-random bending of human metaphase chromosome 12 with the intranuclear arrangement deduced by Nogami et al. (Chromosoma 108 (2000) 514), providing further evidence of the relation of non-random bending and the interphase organization of the nucleus.
