Transmission electron micrograph of a section of Chinchilla epididimus showing the highly lobed nucleus seen in Principal sells of the epididymal epithelium characteristic of many mammals. Figure 111...

Transmission electron micrograph showing the extensive accumulation of darkly stained heterochromatin at the nuclear periphery typical of many differentiated cells. Heterochromatin is excluded from re...

The intracellular mobility of MeCP2 (a methylated DNA-binding protein) followed in a mouse fibroblast stably expressing GFP-MeCP2 through a time series of images captured by confocal microscopy after ...

Transmission electron micrograph of cell division in an insect spermatocyte captured in late anaphase - telophase with cytokinesis in progress. The homologous chromosomes appear as darkly stained disc...

Image shows a z-series of a mouse ES cell carrying an alpha-globin BAC transgene array (clone 1c) hybridized with probes against the lac operator repeat (green) and the entire alpha-globin BAC sequenc...

Transmission electron micrograph of unstained cryo-section of a sperm cell of the starfish Patiria miniata. Echinoderm sperm nuclei are unusual in that chromatin fibers are clearly seen, allowing the...

Transmission electron micrograph of glutaraldehyde fixed pancreatic acinar cell showing the characteristic features of nuclear chromatin with this preparative method. Darkly staining heterochromatin (...

Transmission electron micrographs showing chromosomes in dividing spermatogonia during metaphase in tissue from ram testis (upper panel) and as they begin to separate during early anaphase in tissue f...

Transmission electron micrograph showing part of a decondensed mitotic chromosome. The residual protein 'scaffold' (at bottom) is surrounded by a 'halo' of DNA loops 20 to 24 micrometers long. The en...

Avian erythrocytes differ from most vertebrates in retaining the nucleus at maturity. During erythrocyte development, transcription is progressively shut down and nuclei become compact and heterochrom...
