Popis: | The relative distribution of NOR proteins and chromatin fibers in the nucleoli was visualized in human cell line. The chromatin was revealed by a Feulgen-like procedure using osmium-ammine as DNA tracer. This selective staining was combined with NOR-silver staining. We provide morphological evidence for constant overlapping of the silver deposit sites with dispersed intranucleolar chromatin fibers. Silver stained proteins were sometimes observed in contact with the chromatin fibers, suggesting that at least some of the Ag-NOR proteins might be closely connected with the dispersed nucleolar DNA. |
