The frequencies of sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) were studied in primary kidney cell culture, diploid cell line 5018, pseudodiploid spontaneously transformed cell line 4647 and hypotetraploid cell line 455 of the African green monkey. Bromodeoxyuridine was used at a concentration of 10 micrograms/ml. The slides were stained with acridine orange and Giemsa for sister chromatid differentiation. In the first three cases, SCE were scored in 100 metaphases of each culture. The distribution of cells from the number of SCE differs from the normal law and was approximated fairly well by the lognormal distribution pattern. The geometrical means of SCE per cell were 6.90 for cells in primary culture, 9.26 for cells of diploid line 5018; 4.50 for cells of pseudodiploid transformed line 4647 and 9.76 for cells of hypotetraploid transformed line 455.

D003434 Crossing Over, Genetic The reciprocal exchange of segments at corresponding positions along pairs of homologous CHROMOSOMES by symmetrical breakage and crosswise rejoining forming cross-over sites (HOLLIDAY JUNCTIONS) that are resolved during CHROMOSOME SEGREGATION. Crossing-over typically occurs during MEIOSIS but it may also occur in the absence of meiosis, for example, with bacterial chromosomes, organelle chromosomes, or somatic cell nuclear chromosomes.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D012854 Sister Chromatid Exchange An exchange of segments between the sister chromatids of a chromosome, either between the sister chromatids of a meiotic tetrad or between the sister chromatids of a duplicated somatic chromosome. Its frequency is increased by ultraviolet and ionizing radiation and other mutagenic agents and is particularly high in BLOOM SYNDROME.
