By fusing interphase cells to cells undergoing mitosis, the interphase chromosomes can be visualized. When analyzed in this way, chromosomes of normal mouse cells show characteristic undercondensed centromeric regions. We have found that the centromeric regions of chromosomes from Abelson virus-transformed cells are fully condensed. Abelson virus transforms mouse cells by introducing into them a virally encoded phosphokinase that is expressed constitutively. Thus, we propose that the condensation of centromeric chromatin is a result of overphosphorylation by the Abelson virus phosphokinase, and that the centromeric region is the relevant target of overphosphorylation in transformed cell growth.
