Their chromosome structure is fascinating, but I'll need several months before I can tell you much more than that about it.

It is optimised for physical strength and manageability, forming the classic chromosome structure seen in karyotypes.

In organisms with small genomes and simple chromosome structure, such as bacteria, there may be only a few origins of replication on each chromosome.

Conventional karyotypes can assess the entire genome for changes in chromosome structure and number, but the resolution is relatively coarse, with a detection limit of 5-10Mb.

We can recognize odd bits-odd bits of chromosome structure and so on-but it would take years to analyze it all.

"Professor Dawnay's come up with what appears to be the detailed chromosome structure of a cell."

Modifications of chromosome structure also occur at much larger scales.

His early investigations centered on the unusual chromosome structure of dinoflagellates.

When gene clusters are imprinted, their expression is altered through chemical modification of DNA or changes in chromosome structure.

Common fragile sites are considered part of normal chromosome structure and are present in all (or nearly all) individuals in a population.
