Chromatin and chromosomal fine structure in spermatogenesis of some species of amphibians
1 Aug 2001
Abstract excerpt
Spermatogenesis is a complex differentiation process which is characterised, among other features, by conspicuous stage-specific nuclear events such as the pairing of homologous chromosomes coupled with the formation of synaptonemal complexes, the replacement of histones with sperm-specific proteins during spermiogenesis and, as a result, chromatin condensation and its inactivation in sperm cells. The chromatin...
