Linkage of prostate cancer susceptibility loci to chromosome 1.

abstract：:The inactivated X chromosome has a site of unusually frequent folding in region Xq1, whereas a fold in Xq1 is uncommon on the active X. We investigated the pattern of X chromosome folding in high-resolution GTG- and RBG-stained preparations from four women. In early metaphase cells, slightly more than 50% of late-repl...
