| Research Abstract |
I developed a method for live observation using super-resolution microscopy, 3DSIM, and applied on live fission yeast. The interphase chromatin in live fission yeast formed fibrous structures with a diameter of 100-150 nm. Chromatin in fixed fission yeast nuclei was stained with antibodies against modified histones and observed with 3DSIM, then the level of overlap with the DNA mass was quantitatively analyzed. The results showed that regions associated with ongoing transcription were de-condensed and extended from fibrous structures.
