Nuclease sensitivity of the mouse HPRT gene promoter region: differential sensitivity on the active and inactive X chromosomes. 总被引:6,自引:4,他引:2 下载免费PDF全文
We investigated the conformation of the X-linked mouse hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase gene (HPRT) promoter region both in chromatin from the active and inactive X chromosomes with DNase I and in naked supercoiled DNA with S1 nuclease. A direct comparison of the chromatin structures of the active and inactive mouse HPRT promoter regions was performed by simultaneous DNase I treatment of the active and inactive X chromosomes in the nucleus of interspecies hybrid cells from Mus musculus and Mus caroli. Using a restriction fragment length polymorphism to distinguish between the active and inactive HPRT promoters, we found a small but very distinct difference in the DNase I sensitivity of active versus inactive chromatin. We also observed a single DNase I-hypersensitive site in the immediate area of the promoter which was present only on the active X chromosome. Analysis of the promoter region by S1 nuclease digestion of supercoiled plasmid DNA showed an S1-sensitive site which maps adjacent to or within the DNase I-hypersensitive site found in chromatin but upstream of the region minimally required for normal HPRT gene expression. 相似文献
