The paper studies mammalian chromatids conformed as donut-like rings. Albei
t enacting many topologic and dynamic aspects of straight chromatids (e.g.
replication, eversion, antipodal segregation at anaphase, etc.), rings diff
er in certain properties regarding in particular disposal of soliton-like,
kinked frustrations of their chirality during recurrent sister chromatid ex
changes (SCEs).
