Evolution of pericentromeric heterochromatin of human X chromosome.

S Luke1, T Mathews, R S Verma.   

Abstract

An unusual large heterochromatic segment around the pericentromeric region of the X-chromosome is reported. In normal circumstances, the pericentromeric region of the X-chromosome is negative by the restriction endonuclease AluI/Giemsa technique. However, this unusual X-chromosome was found to have AluI resistant (positive) chromatin. The evolution of extra heterochromatin is a postzygotic event as substantiated by the presence of a normal cell line.
