A new intranuclear structure has been demonstrated in neurons of rat and mouse brain, and studied using conventional electron microscopy and electron stereoscopy techniques. The structure has a crystalline appearance and a variety of profiles was seen in the sections, some showing curvature and one showing ellipticity. The basic component consisted of planes of parallel fibrils; layers of these arrays, usually two in number, crossed each other at an angle, resulting in the appearance of a lattice.
