The SWXJ recombinant inbred (RI) set was developed for genetic analysis of heritable ovarian tumors. In this report we present
data for 223 simple sequence length polymorphisms spanning Chromosomes (Chrs) 7–X to complete the genetic marking of this
RI set. The strain distribution patterns (SDP) for these loci were combined with data from 19 other polymorphic genes, resulting
in densely marked maps for Chrs 7–X. Combined with the 165 loci for Chr 1–6 reported previously (Svenson et al., Mamm. Genome
6, 867, 1995), the SWXJ RI set represents a powerful tool for mapping genes in neoplastic as well as other heritable disorders.

The dominant hemimelia(Dh) mutation causes various developmental abnormalities in mice. Most -Dh/+ males, crosses between DDD females and DH-Dh/+ males, have lethal abnormalities during the neonatal period. This is a consequence of synergism among three independent
gene loci; that is, theDh allele on chromosome (Chr) 1, the DDD allele on an X Chr-linked locus, and a Y Chr-linked locus in some strains. With regard
to the Y Chr derived fromMus musculus musculus (M. m. musculus), the Y Chrs of C57BL/6J and BALB/cA caused lethality, but the Y Chr of C3H/HeJ did not, suggesting that not allM. m. musculus Y Chrs are the same. In the present study, whether Y Chrs derived fromM. m. domesticus andM. m. castaneus could cause lethality was investigated. Among seven inbred strains, including AKR/J, DDD, RF/J, SJL/J, SWR/J, TIRANO/Ei,
and CAST/Ei, Y Chrs of AKR/ J, DDD, SJL/J, SWR/J, and TIRANO/Ei caused lethality, but Y Chrs of RF/J and CAST/Ei did not.
It was unlikely that the mitochondrial genome of the DDD strain contributed to the lethality. The X Chr-linked locus could
not compensate for the role of the Y Chr-linked locus. These results suggest that not allM. m. domesticus Y Chrs are the same. 相似文献

We present a comprehensive radiation hybrid map of the bovine X chromosome (Chr) containing 20 new markers, including both
microsatellites and expressed genes. This study was conducted with a 5000-rad whole genome RH cell panel consisting of 90
hybrid cell lines. Retention frequencies of individual markers range from 7.8% for XIST to 31.1% for TGLA325. Statistical
analysis with RHMAPPER placed all the loci into five linkage groups under a LOD score criterion of 6.0. These groups could
be oriented relative to each other because they included multiple microsatellite loci from the consensus linkage map of the
X Chr. Markers included in both this RH map and the bovine cytogenetic map were in a consistent order. The comparative bovine–human
map thus generated consists of five blocks of genes, the order of which is conserved, although in the opposite direction when
presented as ideograms with p and q arms. Inversions of three blocks account for the difference in gene order across the entirety
of the two X Chrs. 相似文献

Four homeobox genes that belong to the four homeobox gene clusters known in mammals have been regionally assigned to four
distinct porcine chromosomes in conserved regions between human and pig. HOXA11, HOXB6, HOXC8, and HOXD4 genes were mapped by radioactive in situ hybridization to porcine Chromosomes (Chrs) 18q21-24 (with a secondary signal in
16q14-21), 12p11-12, 5p11-12, and 15q22-23 respectively. Besides, we have also revealed the presence of a porcine homeobox
(pig Hbx24) which, although showing DNA sequence homology with a mouse gene of HOXB cluster, was located on porcine Chr 3 (3p14-13) outside the Hox clusters. To support the identity of the homeobox gene clusters
analyzed and in the light of the high sequence similarity among homeobox genes, we also localized markers known to be mapped
near each Hox cluster in human. In this way, four genes were also mapped in pig: GAPD (5q12-21), GAD1 (15q21-22), INHBA (18q24), and IGFBP3 (18q24). Mapping of HOXA11, INHBA, and IGFBP3 on pig Chr 18 constitutes the first assignments of genes on this small chromosome. These new localizations extend the information
on the conservation of four human chromosomal regions in the pig genome.

The linkage map of sheep Chromosome 6 compared with orthologous regions in other species 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
E. A. Lord J. M. Lumsden K. G. Dodds H. M. Henry A. M. Crawford H. A. Ansari P. D. Pearce D. W. Maher R. T. Stone S. M. Kappes C. W. Beattie G. W. Montgomery 《Mammalian genome》1996,7(5):373-376
The genetic linkage map of sheep Chromosome (Chr) 6 has been extended to include 35 loci with the addition of 11 RFLP and
12 microsatellite loci. The sex-averaged linkage map now spans 154 cM from phosphodiesterase cyclic GMP beta polypeptide (PDE6B) to OarCP125, an anonymous sheep microsatellite. The male and female map lengths, at 180 cM and 132 cM respectively, did not differ significantly.
The physical assignment of PDE6B to Chr 6q33-qter orientates the linkage map on sheep Chr 6 with PDE6B near the telomere and OarCP125 towards the centromere. The order and genetic distances between loci are similar for the sheep Chr 6 and cattle Chr 6 maps,
except for the position of the casein genes. The sheep Chr 6 linkage map is also comparable to portions of human Chr 4, mouse
Chrs 5 and 3, and pig Chr 8. The synteny between sheep Chr 6 and human Chr 4 has been extended from PDE6B (4p16.3) to epidermal growth factor (EGF, 4q25-q27). However, a region from platelet-derived growth factor receptor α polypeptide (PDGFRA) to bone morphogenetic protein 3 (BMP3), which spans 19 cM on sheep Chr 6, appears to be inverted with respect to the human and mouse loci. Other differences in
the gene order between sheep, pig, and mouse suggest more complex rearrangements.

A genome-wide scan for quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling body weight at 10 weeks after birth was carried out in
a population of 387 intersubspecific backcross mice derived from a cross between C57BL/6J inbred mice (Mus musculus domesticus) and wild mice (M. m. castaneus) captured in the Philippines, in order to discover novel QTLs from the wild mice that have about 60% lower body weight than
C57BL/6J. By interval mapping, we detected four QTLs: a highly significant QTL on Chromosome (Chr) 2, which was common in
both sexes; two significant QTLs on Chr 13, one male-specific and the other female-specific; and a suggestive male-specific
QTL on X Chr. By composite interval mapping, we confirmed the presence of the three QTLs on Chrs 2 and 13, but not of the
male-specific X-linked QTL. The composite interval mapping analysis newly identified three QTLs: a significant male-specific
QTL on Chr 11 and two highly significant female-specific QTLs on Chrs 9 and X. Individual QTLs explained 3.8–11.6% of the
phenotypic variance, and all the QTL alleles derived from the wild mice decreased body weight. A two-way analysis of variance
revealed a significant epistatic interaction between the Chr 2 QTL and the background marker locus D12Mit4 on Chr 12 only in males. The interaction effect unexpectedly increased body weight. The chromosomal region containing the
Chr 2 QTL did not coincide with those of growth or fatness QTLs mapped in previous studies. These results suggest that a population
of wild mice may play an important role as new sources of valuable QTLs.

A full-length cDNA clone encoding the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4A, isoform 2 (EIF4A2), was cloned from the
fetal skeletal cDNA library from the pig (Sus scrofa). EIF4A2 is a highly conserved gene for one of the protein-synthesis
initiation factors involved in the binding of mRNA to the ribosome. Based on this cDNA sequence, the deduced protein of 407
amino acids contains the characteristic motifs shared by the DEAD-box supergene family. The genomic nucleotide sequence of
this gene was determined and a single nucleotide polymorphism located in the 5′ untranslated region was genotyped. The porcine
EIF4A2 was expressed in all tissues examined but in variable amounts. The EIF4A2 expression level in muscle was upregulated
through embryonic and neonatal development until adult, suggesting that porcine EIF4A2 was possibly involved in translation
regulation of other muscle-related genes in muscle formation and development. In addition, we mapped porcine EIF4A2 to q4.1
of SSC13, in agreement with comparative mapping data. 相似文献

A genetic linkage map of bovine Chromosome (Chr) 7 was generated with a Bos taurus×Bos gaurus interspecific hybrid backcross panel. This study included six previously mapped microsatellites and five unmapped expressed
genes that were identified by PCR-based restriction fragment length variants (RFLVs). The gene order (from centromere to telomere)
and the map distances (in centimorgans) are as follows: cen–BM2607–11.2–LDLR–3.6–AMH,CSF2–11.2–BP41–19–BM6117–19–SPARC–14.4–FGFA–15.5–BM1853–11.2–RASA–18.8–ILSTS006. Previous comparative synteny mapping demonstrated that bovine Chr 7 shares homologous regions with both HSA5q and HSA19p.
A break or fusion between AMH and CSF2 in an ancestral chromosome is suggested to account for the current arrangement of these homologous segments in the human
and bovine genomes. In this study, we demonstrate that a short proximal portion of BTA7 is homologous with HSA19p, while a
larger distal portion of BTA7 is homologous with human Chr 5q. The orientation of these conserved human segments on BTA7 is
also demonstrated. Our data show that the linear order of genes has not been conserved within the homologous region of HSA5
and BTA7, and one chromosomal translocation or inversion is proposed to account for this difference.

CpG islands are found at the 5′ end of approximately 60% of human genes and so are important genomic landmarks. They are
concentrated in early-replicating, highly acetylated gene-rich regions. With respect to CpG island content, human Chrs 18
and 22 are very different from each other: Chr 18 appears to be CpG island poor, whereas Chr 22 appears to be CpG island rich.
We have constructed and validated CpG island libraries from flow-sorted Chrs 18 and 22 and used these to estimate the difference
in number of CpG islands found on these two chromosomes. These libraries contain normalized collections of sequences from
the 5′ end of genes. Clones from the libraries were sequenced and compared with the sequence databases; one third matched
ESTs, thus anchoring these ESTs at the 5′ end of their gene. However, it was striking that many clones either had no match
or matched only existing CpG island clones. This suggests that a significant proportion of 5′ gene sequences are absent from
databases, presumably either because they are difficult to clone or the gene is poorly expressed and/or has a restricted expression
pattern. This point should be taken into consideration if the currently available libraries are those used for the elucidation
of complete, as opposed to partial, gene sequences. The Chr 18 and 22 CpG island libraries are a sequence resource for the
isolation of such 5′ gene sequences from specific human chromosomes.

The spinal muscular atrophy gene region at 5q13.1 has a paralogous chromosomal region at 6p21.3 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Paralogous regions are duplicated segments of chromosomal DNA that have been acquired during the evolution of the genome.
Subsequent divergent evolution of the genes within paralogous regions can lead to the formation of gene families. Here, we
report the identification of a region on Chromosome (Chr) 6 at 6p21.3 that is paralogous with the Spinal Muscular Atrophy
(SMA) gene region on Chr 5 at 5q13.1. Partial characterization of this region identified nine sequences all of which are highly
homologous to DNA sequences of the SMA gene region at 5q13.1. These sequences include four β-glucuronidase sequences, two
retrotransposon sequences, a novel cDNA, a Sequence Tagged Site (STS), and one that is homologous to exon 9 of the Neuronal
Apoptosis Inhibitor Protein (NAIP) gene. The 6p21.3 paralogous SMA region may contain genes that are related to those in the
SMA region at 5q13.1; however, a direct association of this region with SMA is unlikely given that no linkage of SMA with
Chr 6 has been reported.

The porcine genes encoding the immunoglobulin gamma heavy chain (IGHG), cAMP-dependent protein kinase catalytic beta subunit (PRKACB), and transition protein 2 (TNP2) were mapped to Chromosomes (Chrs) 7 q25–q26, 6q31–q33, and 3p13-cent, respectively, by in situ hybridization. Localization of the IGHG gene confirms the assignment of linkage group III to Chr 7. Our results show that the IGHG locus in pigs, similar to the situation in other mammalian species, viz. humans, mouse, cattle, and river buffaloes, is located on the terminal region of the chromosome. The assignment of the PRKACB gene extends the homology observed between porcine Chr 6q and human Chr 1p. Mapping of the TNP2 gene provides the first marker assigned to the p arm of Chr 3 in pigs. The present study contributes to the development of the physical gene map in pigs and also bears significance in terms of comparative gene mapping. 相似文献

The development of radiation hybrid (RH) panels has elevated comparative gene mapping to a new level of resolution. In this
study, we have constructed parallel RH maps defining rearrangements of gene order within conserved segments of bovine Chromosome
(Chr) 1 (BTA1) and human Chrs 3 and 21 (HSA3, HSA21). Six new markers, including one gene, have been added to the bovine map,
and 11 human genes were ordered with the human G3 panel. BTA1 is clearly a composite of genetic material conserved on these
two human chromosomes with HSA21 homologs at each end of BTA1 flanking a large segment homologous to HSA3. Each of the three
conserved segments of BTA1 contains rearrangements of gene order relative to their human counterparts.

We recently constructed a 7000-rad porcine whole-genome radiation hybrid (RH) panel with the primary objective of integrating
linkage maps of microsatellites with evolutionary conserved genes into one ordered map. In order to evaluate the resolution
of this RH panel, we have now constructed a radiation hybrid map of the Chromosome (Chr) 15q2.3-q2.6 region containing the
RN gene. This gene has large effects on glycogen content in muscle and meat quality. Ten microsatellites covering a region of
55 centiMorgans and eight genes (AE3, FN1, IGFBP5, INHA, IRS1, PAX3, TNP1, and VIL1) were placed on the Sscr15 RH map. All the genes, except IRS1, were mapped on the RH map between microsatellites located in 15q2.5. The relative order of AE3 and INHA was inverted on the porcine physical map in comparison with the mouse linkage map. The order of other genes already mapped
in the mouse (FN1, IGFBP5, TNP1, VIL1, INHA/AE3, and PAX3) was identical in pigs. We found no clear difference between the gene order on pig Chr 15 and human Chr 2q.

Mammalian evolution is believed to be male driven because the greater number of germ cell divisions per generation in males
increases the opportunity for errors in DNA replication. Since the Y Chromosome (Chr) replicates exclusively in males, its
genes should also evolve faster than X or autosomal genes. In addition, estimating the overall male-to-female mutation ratio
(αm) is of great importance as a large αm implies that replication-independent mutagenic events play a relatively small role in evolution. A small αm suggests that the impact of these factors may, in fact, be significant. In order to address this problem, we have analyzed
the rates of evolution in the homologous X-Y common SMCX/SMCY genes from three different species—mouse, human, and horse. The SMC genes were chosen because the X and Y copies are highly homologous, well conserved in evolution, and in all probability functionally
interchangeable. Sequence comparisons and analysis of synonymous substitutions in approximately 1kb of the 5′ coding region
of the SMC genes reveal that the Y-linked copies are evolving approximately 1.8 times faster than their X homologs. The male-to-female
mutation ratio αm was estimated to be 3. These data support the hypothesis that mammalian evolution is male driven. However, the ratio value
is far smaller than suggested in earlier works, implying significance of replication-independent mutagenic events in evolution.
