Elasticity and Structure of Eukaryote Chromosomes Studied by Micromanipulation and Micropipette Aspiration

The structure of mitotic chromosomes in cultured newt lung cells was investigated by a quantitative study of their deformability, using micropipettes. Metaphase chromosomes are highly extensible objects that return to their native shape after being stretched up to 10 times their normal length. Large...
