    Notes: Abstract The chromosomes of Chinese hamster cells were examined with the electron microscope and the following observations were made concerning the structure and organization of the kinetochore. — The kinetochore consists of a dense core 200–300 Å in diameter surrounded hy a less dense zone 200–600 Å wide. The dense core consists of a pair of axial fibrils 50–80 Å in diameter which may be coiled together in a cohelical manner. The less dense zone about the axial elements is composed of numerous microfibrils which loop out at right angles to the axial fibrils. Together the structures comprise a lampbrush-like filament which extends along the surface of each chromatid. Some sections suggested that two such filaments may be present on each chromatid. The fine structure of kinetochores associated with spindle filaments was essentially the same as those free of filaments. The structure and organization of the kinetochore of these mammalian cells was compared to that of lampbrush chromosomes of certain amphibian oöcytes, dipteran polytene chromosome puffs, and the synaptinemal complex seen during meiotic prophase.

    Notes: Abstract The regularly occurring secondary constrictions on metaphase chromosomes of mammalian cells prove to be nucleolus organizers as expected. The expression of nucleolus organizers as secondary constrictions, however, varies from cell to cell and from tissue to tissue, including cultivation in vitro. Electron micrographs of the organizer region show that the nucleolus organizer at metaphase is not a constriction. The width of the organizer area is the same as the condensed chromosomal arms; but the filaments, which are the major components of this region, show a diameter of 50–70 Å. The condensed chromosome arms consist of filaments 150–200 Å in diameter. In some mammalian species, structures similar to the nucleolus organizer are located at the end of chromosomes. These may be terminal nucleolus organizers.
