Transport of phosphocholine in higher plant cells: 31P nuclear magnetic resonance studies.

abstract：:Chromosomes condense during mitotic entry to facilitate their segregation. Condensation is typically assayed in fixed preparations, limiting analysis of contributing factors. Here, we describe a quantitative method to monitor condensation kinetics in living cells expressing GFP fused to a core histone. We demonstrate ...
