Interchromosomal DNA-containing fibres in human cells.
Interchromosomal fibres were observed by light microscopy in metaphases of HeLa cells and human lymphocytes prepared by spreading on a water surface. Autoradiography after labelling with tritiated thymidine showed that the fibres contained DNA. They were resistant to pronase treatment.
