The distribution of chromosome breaks induced by the antitumor drug cis-diamine-dichloroplatinum (II) in lymphocyte cultures from Fanconi anemia patients was analyzed. Breakpoints occurred nonrandomly over an arbitrarily defined human karyotype of 319 bands. These bands were classified according to

Common fragile sites were induced by excess thymidine in phytohemagglutinin-stimulated T lymphocytes from 4 normal individuals, and skin fibroblasts from 4 normal and 5 fra(X) positive individuals. The results indicate that the frequency and distribution of excess thymidine-induced fragile sites are
At least four folic acid sensitive fragile sites have been detected in the karyotype of the Persian vole Ellobius lutescens Th. (Rodentia, Microtinae). Two such "hot spots" are located on chromosome 1 flanking the pericentric segment which is inverted in many individuals. The fragile site on 1p was
