TEM images of reconstituted chromatin prepared from 12-mer tandem repeats of a strong nuclear positioning sequence and purified histones. Samples were fixed with glutaraldehyde, applied to carbon film...

Images of negatively stained chromatin fibers prepared from tandem arrays of a nucleosome positioning sequence reconstituted with purified histones together with the results of Monte Carlo simulations...

TEM image of epon section of a freeze-substituted mouse retina illustrating the unusual distribution of heterochromatin in rod receptor nuclei where the compact heterochromatin is centrally located. C...

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 the salivary gland of the tick Rhipicelphals appendiculatus illustrating the dramatic difference in nuclear size seen in different cell types. Here, the large (prob...

Transmission electron micrograph of nucleus showing the characteristic features of glutaraldehyde fixation introduced as a primary fixative in 1962 and since used routinely. Chromatin appears differen...

Transmission electron micrograph illustrating the accumulation of dense heterochromation that accompanies terminal differentiation in may cells. Shown here is a section through a polychromatophilic er...

Upper panel shows a transmission electron micrograph featuring the nuclear envelope with the nuclear lamina seen here as a uniform layer between the inner nuclear membrane and more darkly staining blo...

Thin section showing nucleolus of a Human neuroblastoma SK-N-SH cell imaged with a FEI Tecnai 20 energy filtered electron microscope at 200 KV and a 20 eV enegy window. Left panel shows 'phosphorus' i...

Thin section showing nucleolus of a Human neuroblastoma SK-N-SH cell imaged with a FEI Tecnai 20 energy filtered electron microscope at 200 KV and a 20 eV energy window. Overlay of net phosphorus dist...
