Abstract
Nick translation assays of fixed interphase female fibroblasts with tritiated nucleotides demonstrated a characteristic absence of label over sex chromatin. The chromatin bodies were nearly always peripheral in location and a ribbon of nick translatable DNA was detected between the sex chromatin and the nuclear envelope. High voltage electron microscopy indicated the possibility of a special nuclear envelope attachment region. The apparent resistance of sex chromatin to nick translation did not appear to be due to resistance to DNase I attack.Entities:
