Figure 5


Fig. 5. Ultrastructure of Chro71/Chro612 mutant polytene chromosomes. (A) TEM micrograph of a wild-type polytene chromosome. Note the clear segregation into bands and interbands and the orderly alignment of euchromatic chromatid fibrils. (B,C) Chromosomes from Chro71/Chro612 polytene salivary gland nuclei. The micrograph in B shows the disorganization and misalignment of band/interband polytene chromosome regions (arrows). The micrograph in C shows the folding and coiling of the chromosomes with numerous ectopic contacts connecting non-homologous regions (arrows).
