Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical differentiation with fluorescent alkylating agents in Vicia faba metaphase chromosomes.

TL;DR: A bifunctional highly fluorescent quinacrine mustard was shown to give chromosome breaks preferentially localized to heterochromatic chromosome regions (identifiable by cold treatment) in the M-chromosome.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA-binding fluorochromes for the study of the organization of the metaphase nucleus

TL;DR: Great and reproducible differences in the uptake of the fluorescent reagents by different chromosome regions were observed and a good correlation was found between regions reacting with several different fluorescent compounds and heterochromatin as defined by cold treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytochemical observations on the nucleolus-ribosome system: Effects of actinomycin D and nitrogen mustard☆

TL;DR: Cytochemical analyses of cell populations exposed to actinomycin D and nitrogen mustard support the concept that the nucleolus-associated chromatin is concerned primarily with the synthesis of ribosomal RNA—either directly, or by the mediation of a “messenger” fraction of RNA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytochemical evaluation of metabolic inhibitors in cell culture.

TL;DR: This method permits the in situ determination of the amount of DNA, RNA, and protein in individual cells in populations of heterogeneous cells, and the effects of inhibitory agents on these biosynthetic processes.
