Cytochemical analysis on a case of familial 17ps.
Chromosome 17ps was identified in the mother and daughter but not the father of a normal family with no history of congenital abnormality. In addition to G-band and Ag-NOR staining, previously used to study this abnormality, we applied N-band and C-band techniques. Our results showed that 17ps has no demonstrable ribosomal cistron or constitutive heterochromatin.
