The first description of intrachromosomal fibers was made by Baranetzky in 1880. Since that time, a plethora of fibrillar substructures have been described inside the mitotic chromosomes, and published data indicate that chromosomes may be formed as a result of the hierarchical folding of chromatin fibers. In this review, we examine the evolution and the current state of research on the morphological organization of mitotic chromosomes.
1880年,巴拉内茨基首次描述了染色体内纤维。从那时起,人们在有丝分裂染色体内部描述了大量的纤维状亚结构,已发表的数据表明,染色体可能是染色质纤维分层折叠的结果。在这篇综述中,我们考察了有丝分裂染色体形态组织研究的发展历程和现状。
