应用荧光原位杂交(FISH)技术研究 黑叶猴染色体易位

本文应用染色体荧光原位杂交(FISH)技术,利用人9号和14号染色体特异探针,对深低温冻存和长期传代的黑叶猴细胞株染色体畸变进行了分析。确定在长期冻存和传代过程中,一些黑叶猴细胞在No.12和No.17染色体之间发生了易位,一条 No.17染色体发生断裂,断裂点在17q13,断裂片段17q13-17qter易位到一条 No.12染色体长臂末端,形成一条小的中着丝粒的和一条具较长长臂的衍生染色体即 der(17) 和 der(12)。结果表明,荧光原位杂交技术用人染色体特异探针不仅能检测出人类染色体畸变,也能有效地检测灵长类动物染色体畸变。 Abstract　In this paper,the chromosome aberration of long-term cryopreserved and subcultured Francois' monkey (Semnopithecus francoisi) cell line(KCB 92008) was analyzed by fluoresence in situ hybridizaton (FISH) using human 9 and 14 chromosome DNA probes. After compared the hybridization pattern with the G-banding pattern on the same metaphase,a translocation between Nos.12 and 17 chromosomes was identified. In some Francois'monkey cells,one of chromosome No.17 was broken into two at the breakpoint 17q13,the segment(17q13-17qter) without centromere transfered to the long arm terminal of one chromosome No.12. Thus,two derivant chromosomes der(12) and der(17) were formed,the long arm of der(12) was longer than the normal partner,while the long arm of der(17) was shorter than the normal one. The result indicated that the technique of FISH using human whole chromosome probes was not only a powerful tool to detect human chromosome rearrangements,but also a usefulmethod to study the primate chromosome aberration.     

Karyotyping of Brassica napus L. Based on C0t-1 DNA Banding by Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization

In order to precisely recognize and karyotype Brassica napus L. chromosomes, C0t-1 DNA was extracted from its genomic DNA, labeled with biotin-1 1-dUTP and in situ hybridized. The hybridized locations were detected by Cy3-conjugated streptavidin. Specific fluorescence in situ hybridization （FISH） signal bands were detected on all individual chromosome pairs. Each chromosome pair showed specific banding patterns. The B. napus karyotype has been constructed, for the first time, on the basis of both Cot-1 DNA FISH banding patterns and chromosome morphology.

Equivalence of the total constitutive heterochromatin content by an interchromosomal compensation in the C band sizes of chromosomes 1, 9, 16, and Y in Caucasian and Japanese individuals

A quantitative analysis of C bands by densitometric measurements in chromosomes 1, 9, 16, and Y was conducted in Caucasians and Japanese living in Brazil. Sixty normal unrelated subjects (30 males and 30 females) were studied in each racial group. Caucasians presented C bands of chromosomes 1, 9, and 16 larger than Japanese, but, on average, only the difference for C bands of chromosome 9 was statistically significant. In the Japanese, the C band sizes of chromosomes Y were, on average, significantly larger than in the Caucasians. The mean C band size of chromosome 9 and the sum of the three pairs were significantly larger in Caucasian than in Japanese males. The total values of constitutive heterochromatin, sigma (1qh,9qh,16qh,Yq12), did not show significant difference between Caucasian and Japanese males. The relative C band sizes of chromosomes 1, 9, and 16 were, on average, similar in Caucasians and Japanese. No sex difference was found in both racial groups. As regards the heteromorphism, only the values of C bands of chromosome 9 were, on average, significantly larger in Caucasians than in Japanese. Partial inversions were detected only among the Caucasians.     

A karyological study of the spirurid nematode Mastophorus muris (Nematoda: Spirocercidae)

The karyotype of Mastophorus muris (Gmelin, 1790) comprises four pairs of small autosomal chromosomes and two larger sex X chromosomes in females or one X chromosome in males (2n = 8 + XX/XO). All pairs of chromosomes possess rather uniform morphology without distinct primary or secondary constrictions. No heterochromatin bands were found by C-banding analysis. The absolute chromosome length ranges from 4.02 to 2.24 microns. The mean total length of the haploid complement is 14.34 microns. The course of gametogenesis represents a typical pattern common in the order Spirurida. The recently available karyotypes of spirurid nematodes have been reviewed.     

Cytogenetics of the South American Akodont rodents (Cricetidae) X. Akodon mollis: a species with XY females and B chromosomes

The morphology, G- and C-banding pattern of the Akodon mollis chromosome complement is analysed. Over a total of 14 males and 10 females studied, 8 males and 7 females had a modal chromosome number of 22, while 6 males and 3 females showed a modal number of 23 chromosomes. In the animals with 23 chromosomes the odd element was considered a B chromosome on the basis of: (a) its small size, (b) the lack of an homologous chromosome and the subsequent formation of univalents at diakinesis and metaphase I from testes, (c) the weak or null genetic action as evidenced by the lack of any obvious variation in the phenotype of carriers.Four females exhibited a sex-pair dimorphism indistinguishable from that observed in males. The G-banding analysis showed homology between the pattern found in the Y chromosome and that detected in the short arm of the X. The study of C-band distribution showed that several autosome pairs and the X chromosomes had small masses of centromeric heterochromatin. On the other hand, the Y and B chromosomes were C-band negative. The Y-like chromosome in females with dimorphism of the sex pair was also C-band negative. Accordingly these females were considered to be XY and not Xx (the x being an extensively deleted X chromosome).This work was supported by grants from UNESCO, OEA, CONICET and CIC.

Cytogenetic characterization of the Zebra Mussel Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas) from Miedwie Lake, Poland

Cytogenetic characterization of D. polymorpha was carried out using banding techniques such as C-banding, fluorochrome CMA3 and silver nitrate treatment. The diploid chromosome number of both investigated D. polymorpha forms (typical and albinotic) was the same 2n = 32 (NF = 56). The karyotype consisted of 5 pairs of metacentric, 7 pairs of submetacentric and four pairs of subtelo-acrocentric chromosomes. Ag-NORs were located in the telomeric position on the largest subtelo-acrocentric chromosome pair. C banding patterns indicate many sites of constitutive heterochromatin mainly located in the telomeric regions and interstitially in some chromosomes. CMA3-sites were observed in almost all chromosomes; apart from the Ag-NORs sites, they were located terminally on the chromosome arms and interstitially on three chromosome pairs. Sixteen chromosomes could be counted at the diakinesis stage of meiosis. No differences in banding chromosome patterns were found neither between both analyzed forms of D. polymorpha nor between males and females.

Chromosomal heteromorphisms in Delhi infants. III. Qualitative analysis of C-band inversion heteromorphisms of chromosomes 1, 9, and 16

Qualitative analysis of C-band heteromorphisms was carried out in 200 infants (100 males and 100 females) in Delhi, India. Partial inversions minor and half inversions were observed as modal levels for chromosomes 1 and 9 in both sexes. No chromosome 16 with a C-band inversion was observed in the present investigation. A significantly higher incidence of percent inversions for chromosomes 1 and 9 was observed in males than in females. The frequency of heterozygous inversion level combinations for chromosome pairs 1 and 9 were remarkably higher than homozygous combinations both in males and females. Our results are compared with the other reported studies, and the possible role of these heteromorphisms in ethnic/racial variation and in developmental disturbances are discussed.     

Cytogenetic characterization and description of an XX/XY1Y2 sex chromosome system in catfish Harttia carvalhoi (Siluriformes, Loricariidae)

Karyotypic and cytogenetic characteristics of catfish Harttia carvalhoi (Paraíba do Sul River basin, S?o Paulo State, Brazil) were investigated using differential staining techniques (C-banding, Ag-staining) and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) with 18S and 5S rDNA probes. The diploid chromosome number of females was 2n = 52 and their karyotype was composed of nine pairs of metacentric, nine pairs of submetacentric, four pairs of subtelocentric and four pairs of acrocentric chromosomes. The diploid chromosome number of males was invariably 2n = 53 and their karyotype consisted of one large unpaired metacentric, eight pairs of metacentric, nine pairs of submetacentric, four pairs of subtelocentric, four pairs of acrocentric plus two middle-sized acrocentric chromosomes. The differences between female and male karyotypes indicated the presence of a sex chromosome system of XX/XY1Y2 type, where the X is the largest metacentric and Y1 and Y2 are the two additional middle-sized acrocentric chromosomes of the male karyotype. The major rDNA sites as revealed by FISH with an 18S rDNA probe were located in the pericentromeric region of the largest pair of acrocentric chromosomes. FISH with a 5S rDNA probe revealed two sites: an interstitial site located in the largest pair of acrocentric chromosomes, and a pericentromeric site in a smaller metacentric pair of chromosomes. Translocations or centric fusions in the ancestral 2n = 54 karyotype is hypothesized for the origin of such multiple sex chromosome systems where females are fixed translocation homozygotes whereas males are fixed translocation heterozygotes. The available cytogenetic data for representatives of the genus Harttia examined so far indicate large kayotype diversity.     

Chromosome banding homologies in three species of Aedes (Stegomyia)

The chromosome complements of the mosquitoes Aedes aegypti, Aedes mascarensis, and Aedes albopictus, belonging to the subgenus Stegomyia, gave a uniform response to the Q-, H-, and R-banding techniques. Of the three homomorphic chromosome pairs, only the shortest or sex pair (I) showed a consistent banding pattern. In the three species, a bright yellow intercalary band was present on one arm of both chromosomes of the sex pair after heat treatment and staining with acridine orange. The rest of the chromosome and the other two pairs fluoresced orange-red. The same intercalary region appeared completely dark with the fluorochromes quinacrine and Hoechst 33258, while the rest of the chromosomes fluoresced dull. The same banding pattern was present in males and females. Size variations of the Q- and H-negative and R-positive intercalary bands were observed within each species. The results are interpreted in terms of structural homology of the sex-determining chromosomes, which is retained within the subgenus.

Supernumerary chromosome system,C-banding pattern characterization and multiple nucleolus organizer regions in Moenkhausia sanctaefilomenae (Pisces,Characidae)

Chromosomes of Moenkhausia sanctaefilomenae (10 males and 20 females) collected from a tributary of the Tietê River (Botucatu, S.P. Brazil) were examined using kidney and testicular cells. Both males and females presented 2n=50 chromosomes and 1 to 8 small supernumerary microchromosomes. C-banding demonstrated positively stained heterochromatic blocks in almost every chromosome and a pattern of interstitial bands located in the same position in relation to the centromere on the long arm of a large number of chromosomes. Two large NORs were detected in pair 19 of all the silver-stained metaphases; zero to 6 additional small NORs were detected in other chromosomes. A general survey of the occurrence of supernumerary chromosomes in fishes is presented.
