Outline of Final Research Achievements

Chromosome structure has been an enigma through these three centuries. We tried to elucidate the inner structure of the chromosome by visualization of nucleosome positions by slice and view method using focused ion beam/scanning electron microscopy. As a result, random distribution of nucleosomes were revealed through the chromosome and no regular structure was not detected. On the other hand, we analyzed the chromosome scaffold and revealed that the scaffold consisted with helical double stranded structure. This structure accounts the rigid and flexible nature of the chromosome.
