ABSTRACT:
Agents and a method for generating chromosomes by premature chromosome condensation (PCC) technique utilizes inhibitors of serine/threonine protein phosphatases. When the cells were treated with these agents, they underwent PCC at any phase of cell cycle within 2 hours. This method enables to obtain not only chromosome of mitotic cells but also those from interphase nuclei much easily, quickly and effectively.
