一种筛选微卫星位点的改进方法及其在小熊猫微卫星基因文库构建上的应用

微卫星（Simple Sequence Repeat,SSR）基因位点是在各个遗传学领域被广泛使用的分子标记。而对于首次研究的物种,必须筛选出可以应用的微卫星位点。对于分离微卫星位点来说由于只有大约0.5％-2%的重组体含有微卫星位点,所以标准的基因组文库需要至少产生5 000个重组体。传统的筛选方法就是通过检测大量重组体来定位这些少量的位点。近几年来出现了一些新的筛选方法,采用“富集”微卫星序列的技术将包含微卫星位点的重组体比例提高了10-100倍。这样就降低了筛选工作的时间和劳动强度,大大提高了筛选微卫星位点的效率。本文在结合了几种筛选微卫星位点技术路线的基础上,采用生物素标记探针杂交、富集和PCR筛选技术,对原有技术路线进行了改进。主要试验步骤为：1）基因组DNA的提取和消化;2）生物素标记探针富集;3）克隆建库;4）“PCR”筛选;5）引物设计和多态性检测。新的方法在小熊猫微卫星基因文库的构建中取得成功,获得了10个具有多态性的(CA)n重复序列微卫星位点。

Development of highly conserved primers for 12 new polymorphic microsatellite loci for the genus Rorippa Scop. (Brassicaceae), yellow‐cress

We isolated 12 highly conserved polymorphic microsatellite loci for the yellow‐cress species Rorippa amphibia and Rorippa sylvestris. We used a partial genomic library enriched for several repeat motifs. Obtained sequences containing repetitive elements were blasted and aligned with the Arabidopsis thaliana sequence. We evaluated the cross‐species compatibility of primers designed from sequences either aligning strongly or weakly with A. thaliana. The former proved much more efficient in obtaining primers that worked in both species. The developed conserved primers for microsatellite loci provide excellent markers for studying segregation, gene flow and hybridization in the genus Rorippa.     

Microsatellite polymorphisms in Bolivian squirrel monkeys (Saimiri boliviensis)

Two different approaches were used to identify new microsatellite polymorphisms among captive Bolivian squirrel monkeys (Saimiri boliviensis). In the first case, PCR primers for published human microsatellite loci were screened using genomic DNA from squirrel monkeys. Six polymorphic loci were identified using DNA samples from 19 unrelated individuals. The average heterozygosity among these six loci is 0.73. In the second set of experiments, a DNA library was created from Saimiri genomic DNA, and clones were selected from that library by screening with probes containing di-, tri-, and tetranucleotide repeats. Six novel microsatellites were identified this way, with an average heterozygosity of 0.59. Primer pairs for these six cloned microsatellites were also screened using a series of DNA samples from ten other platyrrhine species to assess the potential utility of these loci in other taxa. This study provides 12 new DNA polymorphisms that will be useful for various studies of this genus and demonstrates that both approaches can be used to develop new DNA polymorphisms in platyrrhine species.     

Microsatellite loci in the phytoparasitic nematode Globodera.

A Globodera pallida genomic library, population Guiclan (Pa2/3), was screened for TG and TC microsatellite motifs. Screening of 50,000 clones revealed 48 positive matches. After sequencing, primers were designed to amplify 14 microsatellite loci. The specificity of the loci was tested with DNA templates of other populations of G. pallida, and also on other species of Globodera. Appearance of amplification products on several of these DNA templates showed that the microsatellite flanking regions are relatively conserved between G. pallida populations as well as between Globodera species. Evidence for allele polymorphism between individuals was demonstrated by using nine loci primers, in G. pallida population Guiclan and from a population of a closely related species G. "mexicana". Some alleles appeared to be species specific.

Sequence-tagged microsatellite profiling (STMP): a rapid technique for developing SSR markers

We describe a technique, sequence-tagged microsatellite profiling (STMP), to rapidly generate large numbers of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers from genomic or cDNA. This technique eliminates the need for library screening to identify SSR-containing clones and provides an ~25-fold increase in sequencing throughput compared to traditional methods. STMP generates short but characteristic nucleotide sequence tags for fragments that are present within a pool of SSR amplicons. These tags are then ligated together to form concatemers for cloning and sequencing. The analysis of thousands of tags gives rise to a representational profile of the abundance and frequency of SSRs within the DNA pool, from which low copy sequences can be identified. As each tag contains sufficient nucleotide sequence for primer design, their conversion into PCR primers allows the amplification of corresponding full-length fragments from the pool of SSR amplicons. These fragments permit the full characterisation of a SSR locus and provide flanking sequence for the development of a microsatellite marker. Alternatively, sequence tag primers can be used to directly amplify corresponding SSR loci from genomic DNA, thereby reducing the cost of developing a microsatellite marker to the synthesis of just one sequence-specific primer. We demonstrate the utility of STMP by the development of SSR markers in bread wheat.
