title: A new banding pattern of human chromosomes by in situ nick translation using ECO RI and biotin-dUTP.
abstract: Here we present first results of an attempt to replace the nicking activity of DNAase I by ECO RI for in situ nick translation of human chromosomes. For the detection of nick translated sites we used biotinylated dUTP. The procedure resulted in a distinct banding pattern of the chromosomes which does not seem to correspond to that reached by any known banding technique.
