Reversible and Irreversible Unfolding of Mitotic Newt Chromosomes by Applied Force

The force–extension behavior of individual mitotic newt chromosomes was studied, using micropipette surgery and manipulation, for elongations up to 80 times native length. After elongations up to five times, chromosomes return to their native length. In this regime chromosomes have linear elasticity...
