Data are presented on the distribution of centromeric heterochromatin of the human X-chromosome in the interphase nucleus of a moving cell. The in situ hybridization made it possible to obtain some results leading to the following conclusions: in moving fibroblasts centromeric heterochromatin of the X-chromosome is located in end regions of the interphase nucleus; there was no preferential localization noted of the centromeric region of the X-chromosome in the front or back areas of the nucleus as to the direction of the movement.
