Fig. 2: Spatial distribution of chromosomes in mouse and human sperm nucleus.
From: Three-dimensional genome structures of single mammalian sperm
a, b 3D genome structures of mouse (a) and human (b) sperm with expanded views of separate chromosomes. c, d Cross sections showing the average spatial distribution of chromosomes in mouse (c) and human (d) nuclei. Pixels containing particles from less than 500 (mouse) or 700 (human) cells are discarded for visualization. Color intensity is adjusted for each panel to account for the content of different chromosomes. e, f Average spatial distribution of centromere and telomere for mouse (e) and human (f) sperm similar to (c, d). Panels on the right show the differences between the distribution of telomere and centromere.
