比较染色体涂色显示小熊猫(Ailurus fulgens)具有高度保守的核型

以狗的整条染色体特异探针,通过比较染色体涂色（Comparative Chromosome Painting）,建立了小熊猫和狗的比较染色体图谱。狗的38条常染色体探针在小熊猫染色体上共检出71个同源片段。其中狗的18条常染色体每一条在小熊猫染色全上各有1个同源片段,其余的20条常染色体每一条在小熊猫染色体上各有2至5个同源片段。广泛的染色体结构重排造成了小熊猫与狗的核型差异：至少需要经过28次断裂,49次融合,4次倒位才能将狗的核型（2n=78）“转变”为小熊猫的核型（2n=36）。结合已发表的狗与家猫的比较染色体图谱,我们推测：小熊猫与家猫之间共存在26个同源片段,二者的核型之间显示了较高的同源性。通过比较分析狗的染色体同源片段在小熊猫与家猫染色体上的分布和排列,可以看出：4次染色体易拉,2次倒位造成了小熊猫与家猫的核型差异。我们的工作进一步证实了利用基因组高度重排的物种（如：狗）的染色体特异探针与核型保守的物种（如：家猫、水貂、小熊猫）进行比较染色体涂色研究,不但可以准确快速地鉴别物种进化过程中所发生的染色体间的结构重排,而且还可揭示染色体内的结构重组。

大豆单染色体的显微分离及体外扩增

采用玻璃针分离法,通过显微操作器成功地分离到大豆（ＧｌｙｃｉｎｅｍａｘＬ．）单染色体。将分离到的两条大豆染色体分别放入两个０．５ｍＬＥｐｐｅｎｄｏｒｆ管中,经Ｓａｕ３Ａ酶切,并在染色体ＤＮＡ片段两端加上Ｓａｕ３Ａ人工接头后,进行两轮ＰＣＲ扩增,得到０．３～３ｋｂ之间的ＤＮＡ片段。Ｓｏｕｔｈｅｒｎ杂交表明,这些大豆单染色体扩增片段与大豆基因组ＤＮＡ之间有同源性,从而证明两条单染色体ＤＮＡ确实已被成功地扩增了,同时表明两条不同的大豆单染色体扩增产物存在一定的差异。在常规的倒置显微镜下对小型染色体进行了显微分离,为小型单染色体ＤＮＡ的体外扩增及微克隆奠定了基础。     

Identification of some chromosomes of the brewing yeast Saccharomyces uvarum

Abstract Chromosomal DNA molecules of Saccharomyces uvarum and Saccharomyces cerevisiae were separated using Orthogonal Field Alteration Gel Electrophoresis (OFAGE). Hybridization with specific probes of S. cerevisiae chromosomes allowed the identification of seven chromosomes of S. uvarum . The majority of the studied chromosomal DNA molecules show the same OFAGE mobility as the corresponding molecules of S. cerevisiae , with some minor differences.
Hybridizations with two distinct bands of S. uvarum were observed with each URA1 (marker of chromosome XI) and ARG80 (marker of chromosome XIII) probes, demonstrating the presence of at least two copies of these genes in the brewing yeast.     

Chromosome Painting Shows That Pygathrix nemaeus Has the Most Basal Karyotype Among Asian Colobinae

We mapped the chromosomal homology of Pygathrix namaeus (douc) with human and other primates by in situ hybridization of human chromosome paints. The synteny of 3 human chromosomes (1, 2, 19) is fragmented in the douc karyotype and the 23 human probes (autosomes plus X) provided 26 signals. There are associations between human chromosomes 14/15, 21/22, and 1/19. Human chromosomes 1 and 19 are divided in two segments and associated on douc chromosomes 8 and 10. The fragmentation and association of human chromosomes 1 and 19 is best explained as the result of a reciprocal translocation, which occurs in all documented Asian colobines studied, but not in the African species Colobus guereza. However, the homologs to douc chromosome 10 in all other Asian documented colobines show an additional pericentric inversion. Our results indicate that Pygathrix nemeus is karyologically the most conservative colobine species yet studied and that this species probably diverged early after the separation of Asian and African Colobinae. The data reinforce the monophyly of the Colobinae and their division into an African and an Asian clade.     

利用微分离黑麦1R染色体的体外扩增产物进行染色体着染研究

首先对显微分离出的黑麦（ＳｅｃａｌｅｃｅｒｅａｌｅＬ．）１Ｒ染色体进行了两轮Ｓａｕ３Ａ连接接头介导的ＰＣＲ扩增（ＬＡ＿ＰＣＲ）。经Ｓｏｕｔｈｅｒｎ杂交证实这些染色体扩增片段来源于基因组ＤＮＡ之后,再利用１Ｒ染色体的第二轮扩增产物、黑麦基因组ＤＮＡ、ｒＤＮＡ基因为探针,与其根尖细胞中期分裂相进行染色体原位杂交,发现微分离的１Ｒ染色体体外扩增产物中包含大量的非该染色体特异性重复序列,而其信息量却较黑麦总基因组少;当以适量的黑麦基因组ＤＮＡ进行封阻时,微分离染色体的体外扩增产物成功地被重新定位在中期分裂相的一对１Ｒ染色体上,说明微分离１Ｒ染色体的ＰＣＲ扩增产物中的确包含了该染色体特异性的片段。此外,以从１Ｒ染色体微克隆文库中筛选出的一单、低拷贝序列和一高度重复序列分别为探针,染色体原位杂交检测发现,这一高度重复序列可能为端粒相关序列;而单、低拷贝序列却未检测到杂交信号。这些结果从不同侧面反映出染色体着染技术是证实微分离、微切割染色体的真实来源及筛选染色体特异性探针的有利工具。建立了可供参考的植物染色体着染实验体系,为染色体微克隆技术在植物中的进一步应用提供了便利。     

Preliminary Studies of Chromosome Morphology of Several Wild and Cultivated Eggplants

This paper deals with the chromosome morphology of three wild eggplants (Solanum indicum L., S. indicum L. var. recurvatum C. Y. Wu et S. C. Huang,S. coagulans Forsk.) grown in Shi-shuang-banna and two cultivars (S. melongena L.var. serpentinum Bailey, S. melogena L. var. esculantum Nees). All their chromosomenumbers are 2n=24. The chromosome idiograms of wild eggplants axe as follows: Solanum indicum,2G+12J+2I+8M; S. indicum var. recurvatum, 8G+12J+2I+2M; S. coagulans ( No. 20),10J+2I+12M; S. coagulans(No. 21), 8J+14M+2L; and those of cultivars are: S. melongena var. serpentinum, 6G+12J+2I+4M; S. melongena var. esculantum, 12J+2I+10M. The chromosome idiograms among three wild eggplants are quite different. However, they are rather closely related in each other between the two cultivars. Butthe relative length and the relative position of the sat-chromosomes in each chromo)meidiogram are conspicuously variable.     

Chromosome localization and orientation of the simple sequence repeat of human satellite I DNA

The predominant chromosomal locations of human satellite I DNA were detected using fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). Synthetic deoxyoligonucleotides designed from consensus sequences of the simple sequence repeats of satellite 1 were used as probes. The most abundant satellite I repeat, the-A-B-A-B-A-form, is located at the pericentromeric regions of chromosomes 3, 4, 13, 14, 15, 21, and 22. The less abundant-B-B-B-form was not detected on chromosome 4, but was present at all the other locations. A variation of FISH that allows strand-specific hybridization of single-stranded probes (CO-FISH) determined that the human satellite I sequences are predominantly arranged in head-to-tail fashtion along the DNA strand.     

Chromosome painting between human and lorisiform prosimians: evidence for the HSA 7/16 synteny in the primate ancestral karyotype

Multidirectional chromosome painting with probes derived from flow-sorted chromosomes of humans (Homo sapiens, HSA, 2n = 46) and galagos (Galago moholi, GMO, 2n = 38) allowed us to map evolutionarily conserved chromosomal segments among humans, galagos, and slow lorises (Nycticebus coucang, NCO, 2n = 50). In total, the 22 human autosomal painting probes detected 40 homologous chromosomal segments in the slow loris genome. The genome of the slow loris contains 16 sytenic associations of human homologues. The ancient syntenic associations of human chromosomes such as HSA 3/21, 7/16, 12/22 (twice), and 14/15, reported in most mammalian species, were also present in the slow loris genome. Six associations (HSA 1a/19a, 2a/12a, 6a/14b, 7a/12c, 9/15b, and 10a/19b) were shared by the slow loris and galago. Five associations (HSA 1b/6b, 4a/5a, 11b/15a, 12b/19b, and 15b/16b) were unique to the slow loris. In contrast, 30 homologous chromosome segments were identified in the slow loris genome when using galago chromosome painting probes. The data showed that the karyotypic differences between these two species were mainly due to Robertsonian translocations. Reverse painting, using galago painting probes onto human chromosomes, confirmed most of the chromosome homologies between humans and galagos established previously, and documented the HSA 7/16 association in galagos, which was not reported previously. The presence of the HSA 7/16 association in the slow loris and galago suggests that the 7/16 association is an ancestral synteny for primates. Based on our results and the published homology maps between humans and other primate species, we propose an ancestral karyotype (2n = 60) for lorisiform primates.     

Spectral Karyotyping to Study Chromosome Abnormalities in Humans and Mice with Polycystic Kidney Disease

Conventional method to identify and classify individual chromosomes depends on the unique banding pattern of each chromosome in a specific species being analyzed ^{1, 2}. This classical banding technique, however, is not reliable in identifying complex chromosomal aberrations such as those associated with cancer. To overcome the limitations of the banding technique, Spectral Karyotyping (SKY) is introduced to provide much reliable information on chromosome abnormalities.SKY is a multicolor fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) technique to detect metaphase chromosomes with spectral microscope ^{3, 4}. SKY has been proven to be a valuable tool for the cytogenetic analysis of a broad range of chromosome abnormalities associated with a large number of genetic diseases and malignancies ^{5, 6}. SKY involves the use of multicolor fluorescently-labelled DNA probes prepared from the degenerate oligonucleotide primers by PCR. Thus, every chromosome has a unique spectral color after in-situ hybridization with probes, which are differentially labelled with a mixture of fluorescent dyes (Rhodamine, Texas Red, Cy5, FITC and Cy5.5). The probes used for SKY consist of up to 55 chromosome specific probes ^7-10.The procedure for SKY involves several steps (Figure 1). SKY requires the availability of cells with high mitotic index from normal or diseased tissue or blood. The chromosomes of a single cell from either a freshly isolated primary cell or a cell line are spread on a glass slide. This chromosome spread is labeled with a different combination of fluorescent dyes specific for each chromosome. For probe detection and image acquisition,the spectral imaging system consists of sagnac interferometer and a CCD camera. This allows measurement of the visible light spectrum emitted from the sample and to acquire a spectral image from individual chromosomes. HiSKY, the software used to analyze the results of the captured images, provides an easy identification of chromosome anomalies. The end result is a metaphase and a karyotype classification image, in which each pair of chromosomes has a distinct color (Figure 2). This allows easy identification of chromosome identities and translocations. For more details, please visit Applied Spectral Imaging website (http://www.spectral-imaging.com/).SKY was recently used for an identification of chromosome segregation defects and chromosome abnormalities in humans and mice with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD), a genetic disease characterized by dysfunction in primary cilia ^11-13. Using this technique, we demonstrated the presence of abnormal chromosome segregation and chromosomal defects in ADPKD patients and mouse models ¹⁴. Further analyses using SKY not only allowed us to identify chromosomal number and identity, but also to accurately detect very complex chromosomal aberrations such as chromosome deletions and translocations (Figure 2).     

Chromosome spatial order in human cells: evidence for early origin and faithful propagation

We have investigated the origin and nature of chromosome spatial order in human cells by analyzing and comparing chromosome distribution patterns of normal cells with cells showing specific chromosome numerical anomalies known to arise early in development. Results show that all chromosomes in normal diploid cells, triploid cells and in cells exhibiting nondisjunction trisomy 21 are incorporated into a single, radial array (rosette) throughout mitosis. Analysis of cells using fluorescence in situ hybridization, digital imaging and computer-assisted image analysis suggests that chromosomes within rosettes are segregated into tandemly linked “haploid sets” containing 23 chromosomes each. In cells exhibiting nondisjunction trisomy 21, the distribution of chromosome 21 homologs in rosettes was such that two of the three homologs were closely juxtaposed, a pattern consistent with our current understanding of the mechanism of chromosomal nondisjunction. Rosettes of cells derived from triploid individuals contained chromosomes segregated into three, tandemly linked haploid sets in which chromosome spatial order was preserved, but with chromosome positional order in one haploid set inverted with respect to the other two sets. The spatial separation of homologs in triploid cells was chromosome specific, providing evidence that chromosomes occupy preferred positions within the haploid sets. Since both triploidy and nondisjunction trisomy 21 are chromosome numerical anomalies that arise extremely early in development (e.g., during meiosis or during the first few mitoses), our results support the idea that normal and abnormal chromosome distribution patterns in mitotic human cells are established early in development, and are propagated faithfully by mitosis throughout development and into adult life. Furthermore, our observations suggest that segregation of chromosome homologs into two haploid sets in normal diploid cells is a remnant of fertilization and, in normal diploid cells, reflects segregation of maternal and paternal chromosomes.

普通小麦栽培品种丰抗13的4B—1D染色体易位的鉴定

通过细胞学观察,在普通小麦栽培品种“丰抗13”和“京红1号”的杂交后代中,发现有多价体出现,这就表明有染色体易位发生。为进一步弄清究竟是哪条染色体发生了易位,我们采用单体测交方法,观察鉴定所有各单体系F_1的花粉母细胞第一次减数分裂中期Ⅰ(以下简称PMCs中Ⅰ)染色体构型。从鉴定结果发现,凡2n=42的F_1 PMCs中Ⅰ出现19~Ⅱ 1~Ⅳ,而2n=41的F_1PMCs中Ⅰ的染色体构型不同,单体与易位有关的两个单体系4B和1D F_1 PMCs中的Ⅰ构型中有部分呈现为19个二价体加1个三价体,即19~Ⅱ 1~Ⅲ,没有单价体,而其余各单体系F_1 PMCs中Ⅰ构型则表现为18个二价体,1个四价体和1个单价体,即18~Ⅱ 1~Ⅰ 1~Ⅳ。因此,可以肯定“丰抗13”存在1个染色体易位,其有关染色体就是4B和1D。
