About this work
Description
Human chromosomes highlighted by fluorescent
probes which bind to specific sequenes of DNA.
This FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridisation)
study shows a female not deleted for a cosmid
(red) from within the Duchenne muscular dystrophy
(DMD) gene. See B0000324C for FISH study of female
with deletion. In a carrier female, this signal
would be missing from one of the X chromosomes.
