Changes in the organization of chromosomes during the cell cycle: response to ultraviolet light.

Fusion between mitotic and interphase cells results in the premature condensation of the interphase chromosomes into a morphology related to the position in the cell cycle at the time of fusion. These prematurely condensed chromosomes (PCC) have been used in conjunction with u.v. irradiation to examine the interphase chromosome condensation cycle of HeLa cells. The following observations have been made: (I) There is a progressive decondensation of the chromosomes during G1 which is accentuated by u.v. irradiation: (2) The chromosomes become more resistant to u.v.-induced decondensation during G2 and mitosis. (3) There is a close correlation between the degree of chromosome decondensation and the amount of unscheduled DNA synthesis induced by u.v. irradiation during G1 and mitosis: (4) Hydroxyurea enhances the ability of u.v. irradiation to promote the decondensation of chromosomes during G1, G2 and mitosis. Hydroxyurea also potentiates the lethal action of u.v. irradiation during mitosis and G1. These data are discussed in relation to the suggestion that chromosomes undergo a progressive decondensation during G1 and condensation during G2.
