Characterization of normal and rearranged human chromosomes by simultaneous Q- and R-banding with chromomycin A3.
Simultaneous Q- and R-type banding patterns in human chromosomes have been achieved by staining with chromomycin A3. Some peculiarities of these patterns as compared to the patterns induced by other fluorochromes are described. The resolution power of this technique in analyzing structural rearrangements of human chromosomes is discussed.
