High resolution R-bands produced in equine chromosomes after incorporation of bromodeoxyuridine
Cell synchronization was used to obtain an adequate percentage of very long chromosomes in equine mitotic spreads. Reported here is our variation, adapted to horse chromosomes, of a method using excess thymidine followed by bromodeoxyuridine incorporation. This technique routinely yields excellent quality cells, predominantly in prometaphase and prophase. Among other differences with the standard technique, this addltion does not use Colcemid, which, in addltion to Inhibiting spindle fiber formation, also increases chromosome contraction resulting in thicker and thus fewer bands. Consequently, horse prometaphase chromosomes, which have incorporated BrdU in the late-S-phase, are very long and display a large number of R-bands after the fluorescence-photolysis Glemsa method. This technique should definitely be useful for the analysis of structural anomalies and the standardization of equine R-band
