A novel type of infantile nephronophthisis was identified in an extended Bedouin family from Israel. This disease has an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance, with the phenotypic presentation ranging from a Potter-like syndrome to hyperechogenic kidneys, renal insufficiency, hypertension, and hyperkalemia. Affected individuals show rapid deterioration of kidney function, leading to end-stage renal failure within 3 years. Histopathologic examination of renal tissue revealed variable findings, ranging from infantile polycystic kidneys to chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis, fibrosis, and cortical microcysts. A known familial juvenile nephronophthisis locus on chromosome 2q13 and autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease on chromosome 6p21.1-p12 were excluded by genetic linkage analysis. A genomewide screen for linkage was conducted by searching for a locus inherited by descent in all affected individuals. Pooled DNA samples from parents and unaffected siblings and individual DNA samples from four affected individuals were used as PCR templates with trinucleotide- and tetranucleotide-repeat polymorphic markers. Using this approach, we identified linkage to infantile nephronophthisis for markers on chromosome 9q22-31. The disorder maps to a 12.9-cM region flanked by markers D9S280 and GGAT3G09. 相似文献

Cystinuria is a genetic disease manifested by the development of kidney stones. In some patients, the disease is caused by mutations in the SLC3A1 gene located on chromosome 2p. In others, the disease is caused by a gene that maps to chromosome 19q, but has not yet been cloned. Cystinuria is very common among Jews of Libyan ancestry living in Israel. Previously we have shown that the disease-causing gene in Libyan Jews maps to an 8-cM interval on chromosome 19q between the markers D19S409 and D19S208. Several markers from chromosome 19q showed strong linkage disequilibrium, and a specific haplotype was found in more than half of the carrier chromosomes. In this study we have analyzed Libyan Jewish cystinuria families with eight markers from within the interval containing the gene. Seven of these markers showed significant linkage disequilibrium. A common haplotype was found in 16 of the 17 carrier chromosomes. Analysis of historical recombinants placed the gene in a 1.8-Mb interval between the markers D19S430 and D19S874. Two segments of the historical carrier chromosome used to calculate the mutation's age revealed that the disease-causing mutation was introduced into this population 7-16 generations ago. 相似文献

Summary Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a common autosomal dominant genetic disorder caused by mutation in at least two different gene loci. The PKD1 gene has been localized on the short arm of chromosome 16. The location of a second genetic locus in the human genome is not yet known. A large PKD kindred, unlinked to chromosome 16, with over 250 members was studied using both DNA and classical markers. In total, 29 informative marker loci on 11 autosomes have been analyzed for linkage with PKD. The data significantly exclude the linkage with disease locus from 17 marker loci and show no evidence of close linkage with the other loci. 相似文献

Summary We describe a large three generation family with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (PKD). Ultrasonographic screening of 60 family members revealed 20 individuals, whose age ranged from ten to eighty years, with one or several cysts in only one kidney and 7 individuals with cysts in both kidneys. Transmission of unilateral cysts seems to be autosomal dominant, although there are some generation gaps. Linkage studies with several markers of the PKD1 locus on the short arm of chromosome 16 showed no linkage with the disease. Lod scores for linkage between the disease and the most informative marker 3HVR were computed using different penetrance models and several hypotheses concerning the clinical status of individuals with unilateral renal cysts. Results varied from Z = 1.31 to Z =-21.47 ( = 0). Smith's test of heterogeneity gave a conditional probability of non-linkage between 0.9 and 1.0. We conclude that this family presents a form of autosomal dominant PKD with reduced penetrance and no linkage to the PKD1 locus on the short arm of chromosome 16. Other hypotheses, such as the existence of two distinct hereditary diseases in this large family, or neomutation in one branch of the family associated with a high frequency of isolated renal cysts, are also considered. 相似文献

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: evidence for the existence of a third locus in a Portuguese family 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is characterized by clinical and genetic heterogeneity. Two loci implicated in the disease have previously been mapped (PKD1 on chromosome 16 and PKD2 on chromosome 4). By two point and multipoint linkage analysis, negative lod scores have been found for both chromosome 16 and chromosome 4 markers in a large Portuguese family, indicating that a third PKD locus is involved in the development of the disease. 相似文献

Summary Linkage analysis has been carried out in nine unrelated families segregating for X-linked ichthyosis (steroid sulfatase deficiency) using seven polymorphic DNA markers from the distal Xp. Close linkage was found between the disease locus and the loci DXS16, DXS89, and DXS143. In all families except one, Southern hybridization with the human steroid sulfatase cDNA and GMGX9 probes showed a deletion of corresponding loci in affected males. Three patients belonging to the same family had no evident deletion with either of the two above-mentioned probes. None of the other six DNA loci included in the linkage analysis were found to be deleted. 相似文献

109 malignant lymphomas were surveyed by Southern blot analysis and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA and compared with 16 examples of non-neoplastic lymphadenopathy and 4 normal thymuses. In specimens positive by the method of Southern and PCR, in situ hybridization studies were performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections. By Southern blot analysis, two of seven Hodgkin's disease samples (29%) (one of mixed cellularity and the other of lymphocyte predominance type), three of 56 B-cell lymphomas (5.6%) and five of 46 T-cell lymphomas (11%) demonstrated EBV DNA. However, the 16 examples of lymphadenitis and the 4 normal thymuses showed no EBV DNA. With PCR, EBV DNA was identified in one B-cell lymphoma, nine T-cell lymphomas, ten lymphadenitis specimens and two of the normal thymus, in addition to the positive specimens determined by the Southern blotting method. These results indicate that the presence of EBV DNA is not related to lymphoid malignancy, but enhancement of the DNA is demonstrated in some neoplastic conditions. By in situ hybridization, EBV genomes were not detected in all PCR-positive cases, but only in those positive by Southern blot analysis. 相似文献

The gene for Batten disease (CLN3) has been mapped to human chromosome 16 by demonstration of linkage to the haptoglobin locus, and its localization has been further refined using a panel of DNA markers. The aim of this work was to refine the genetic and physical mapping of this disease locus. Genetic linkage analysis was carried out in a larger group of families by using markers for five linked loci. Multipoint analysis indicated a most likely location for CLN3 in the interval between D16S67 and D16S148 (Z = 12.5). Physical mapping of linked markers was carried out using somatic cell hybrid analysis and in situ hybridization. A mouse/human hybrid cell panel containing various segments of chromosome 16 has been constructed. The relative order and physical location of breakpoints in the proximal portion of 16p were determined. Physical mapping in this panel of the markers for the loci flanking CLN3 positioned them to the bands 16p12.1----16p12.3. Fluorescent in situ hybridization of metaphase chromosomes by using these markers positioned them to the region 16p11.2-16p12.1. These results localize CLN3 to an interval of about 2 cM in the region 16p12. 相似文献

Dinucleotide Repeat Loci Contribute Highly Informative Genetic Markers to the Human Chromosome 2 Linkage Map 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Microsatellite repeat loci can provide informative markers for genetic linkage. Currently, the human chromosome 2 genetic linkage map has very few highly polymorphic markers. Being such a large chromosome, it will require a large number of informative markers for the dense coverage desired to allow disease genes to be mapped quickly and accurately. Dinucleotide repeat loci from two anonymous chromosome 2 genomic DNA clones were sequenced so that oligonucleotide primers could be designed for amplifying each locus using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Five sets of PCR primers were also generated from nucleotide sequences in the GenBank Database of chromosome 2 genes containing dinucleotide repeats. In addition, one PCR primer pair was made that amplifies a restriction fragment length polymorphism on the TNP1 gene (Hoth and Engel, 1991). These markers were placed on the CEPH genetic linkage map by screening the CEPH reference DNA panel with each primer set, combining these data with those of other markers previously placed on the map, and analyzing the combined data set using CRI-MAP and LINKAGE. The microsatellite loci are highly informative markers and the TNP1 locus, as expected, is only moderately informative. A map was constructed with 38 ordered loci (odds 1000:1) spanning 296 cM (male) and 476 cM (female) of chromosome 2 compared with 306 cM (male) and 529 cM (female) for a previous map of 20 markers. 相似文献

Direct and indirect mutation analyses in patients with ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) is one of 5 enzymes in the detoxification of ammonia to urea, and its deficiency, an X-linked disease, is the most common inborn error of urea genesis in humans. Because of the devastating nature of the disease there is a strong demand for reliable and rapid molecular analyses in OTC families in order to offer carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis. This paper presents the efficiency of direct and indirect mutation analyses in 22 OTC families using Southern blotting and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. For 89% of the mothers with an affected child, at least 1 RFLP of the OTC locus was informative concerning prenatal diagnosis. 100% informativity was reached by using the additional flanking markers 754 and LI.28. In total, 3 deletions (14%) and 1 TaqI site mutation (4.5%) in exon 3 were detected. 13 (60%) of our 22 mothers were found to be carriers, 9 of them being obligate carriers and 4 detected by biochemical testing. 4 mothers were excluded as carriers by DNA analyses, and in 5 mothers the carrier status could not be assessed positively. DNA analyses permitted carrier detection in 32% and carrier exclusion in 55% of 22 female relatives. Prenatal diagnosis was performed in 4 families: in 1 family by direct mutation detection and in 3 families by linkage analyses. It was possible to determine the mutation origin in 6 families, all of them with male probands. In 4 families the mutation had occurred during grandpaternal spermiogenesis, suggesting higher mutation rates in males, but in 2 cases it was the result of an event during maternal oogenesis, proving that new mutations in the OTC gene do also occur in eggs. Our recommended strategy for carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis in OTC deficiency is to examine routinely Southern blots of BamHI, EcoRI, HindIII, MspI, PstI and TaqI digestions using the OTCcDNA probe pH0731 and the flanking markers 754 and LI.28, as well as the TaqI-digested PCR products of exons 3, 5 and 9. 相似文献

Polycystic kidney disease is an inherited heterogeneous disorder that affects approximately 11000 Europeans. It is characterized mainly by the formation of cysts in the kidney that lead to end-stage renal failure with late age of onset. Three loci have been identified, PKD1 on the short arm of chromosome 16, which has recently been isolated and characterized, PKD2 on the long arm of chromosome 4, and a third locus of unknown location, that is apparently much rarer. In families that transmit the PKD2 gene there is a significantly later age of onset of symptoms, compared with families that transmit the PKD1 gene, and in general they present with milder progression of symptomatology. For the first time we attempted molecular genetic analysis in seven Cypriot families using highly polymorphic markers around the PKD1 and PKD2 genes. Our data showed that there is genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity among these families. For four of the families we obtained strong evidence for linkage to the PKD1 locus. In two of these families linkage to PKD1 was strengthened by excluding linkage to PKD2 with the use of marker D4S423. In three other families we showed linkage to the PKD2 locus. In the largest of these families one recombinant placed marker D4S1534 distal to D4S231, thereby rendering it the closest proximal marker known to us to date. The application of molecular methods allowed us to make presymptomatic diagnosis for a number of at-risk individuals. 相似文献

A simple method to create a chromosome-specific DNA librqary of rice,including microdissection,amplification,charterization and cloning,is described.Rice chromosome 4 from a metaphase cell has been isolated and amplified by the Linker Adapter PCR (LA-PCR).The PCR products were labeled as probes with DIG-11-dUTP using the random priming method.Southern blot analysis with rice genomic DNA and specific RFLP markers demonstrated that the PCR products were derived from rice chromosome 4.A large library comprising over 100,000 recombinant plasmid microclones from rice chromosome 4 was constructed.Colony hybridization showed that 58% of the clones contained single or low-copy sequences and 42% contained repetitive sequences.The size of inserts generated by PCR ranged from 140bp to 500bp.This method will facilitate cloning of the specific chromosome DNA markers and important genes of rice. 相似文献

Microdissection of metaphase chromosome preparations of diploid oat Avena strigosa (2n = 14) allowed isolation of the three individual chromosomes with distinct morphologies, numbers 2, 3 and 7. Using a PCR approach based on the DNA of microdissected chromosomes, STS derivatives of RFLP markers, genetically mapped in Avena spp. linkage maps, have been physically assigned to these three chromosomes. Based on either two or four RFLP-derived STS markers, the A. strigosa chromosomes 2 and 3 were found to be homoeologous to the oat linkage groups C and E, respectively. With the DNA of chromosome 7, four RFLP-derived STS markers located within the central part of linkage group F and two distal ends of linkage group G were amplified. Accordingly, chromosome 7 corresponds to linkage group F and, most probably, is involved in an A. strigosa-specific chromosomal translocation relative to the diploid species Avena atlantica and Avena hirtula, of which the cross progeny was used for linkage mapping of the tested RFLP clones. 相似文献

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a genetically heterogeneous disorder. At least two distinct forms of ADPKD are now well defined. In approximately 86% of affected European families, a gene defect localized to 16p13.3 was responsible for ADPKD, while a second locus has been recently localized to 4q13-q23 as candidate for the disease in the remaining families. We present confirmation of linkage to microsatellite markers on chromosome 4q in eight Spanish families with ADPKD, in which the disease was not linked to 16p13.3. By linkage analysis with marker D4S423, a maximum lod score of 9.03 at a recombination fraction of .00 was obtained. Multipoint linkage analysis, as well as a study of recombinant haplotypes, placed the PKD2 locus between D4S1542 and D4S1563, thereby defining a genetic interval of approximately 1 cM. The refined map will serve as a genetic framework for additional genetic and physical mapping of the region and will improve the accuracy of presymptomatic diagnosis of PKD2. 相似文献

Polycystic liver disease (PCLD) is characterized by the growth of fluid-filled cysts of biliary epithelial origin in the liver. Although the disease is often asymptomatic, it can, when severe, lead to complications requiring surgical therapy. PCLD is most often associated with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD); however, families with an isolated polycystic liver phenotype without kidney involvement have been described. The clinical presentation and histological features of polycystic liver disease in the presence or absence of ADPKD are indistinguishable, raising the possibility that the pathogenetic mechanisms in the diseases are interrelated. We ascertained two large families with polycystic liver disease without kidney cysts and performed a genomewide scan for genetic linkage. A causative gene, PCLD, was mapped to chromosome 19p13.2-13.1, with a maximum LOD score of 10.3. Haplotype analysis refined the PCLD interval to 12.5 cM flanked by D19S586/D19S583 and D19S593/D19S579. The discovery of genetic linkage will facilitate diagnosis and study of this underdiagnosed disease entity. Identification of PCLD will be instrumental to an understanding of the pathogenesis of cyst formation in the liver in isolated PCLD and in ADPKD. 相似文献

Mapping of the von Hippel-Lindau disease locus to a small region of chromosome 3p by genetic linkage analysis. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Genetic linkage studies were performed in 22 families with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease by using polymorphic DNA markers from distal chromosome 3p. Linkage was detected between VHL disease and the markers D3S18 (Zmax = 6.6 at theta = 0.0, confidence interval (CI) 0.00-0.06), RAF1 (Zmax = 5.9 at theta = 0.06, CI 0.01-0.16), and THRB (Zmax 3.4 at theta = 0.11). Multipoint linkage analysis localized the VHL disease gene within a small region (approximately 8 cM) of 3p25-p26 between RAF1 and (D3S191, D3S225) and close to the D3S18 locus. There was no evidence of locus heterogeneity, and families with and without pheochromocytoma showed linkage to D3S18. The identification of DNA markers flanking the VHL disease gene allows reliable presymptomatic and prenatal diagnosis to be offered to informative families. 相似文献

The localization of the autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease locus (PKD1) within an array of anonymous polymorphic DNA sequences on chromosome 16 band p13 was determined by multipoint mapping. Nine polymorphic DNA markers, including two hypervariable sequences, were used to study 19 PKD1 and 21 reference families. PKD1 was found to lie proximal to the 3' and 5' hypervariable regions of alpha-globin and distal to the anonymous sequence CRI-0327. Somatic cell hybrid mapping places PKD1 within the region 16p13.11-16pter. The availability of an array of linked markers which bracket the PKD1 locus provides a framework for further attempts to identify the PKD1 gene and offers an improved method of presymptomatic diagnosis of the disease. 相似文献

A mouse linkage testing stock possessing multiple copies of the endogenous ecotropic murine leukemia virus genome 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
A new linkage testing stock of the laboratory mouse has been constructed. The stock, designated MEV (multiple ecotropic provirus), was developed by inbreeding and selection beginning with the cross of strains C58/J and AKXD-14. Eleven different murine leukemia virus (MuLV) proviruses have been fixed in the MEV/1Ty strain. Nine of these can be uniquely identified by Southern blotting of PvuII-digested DNA and probing with a cloned fragment of the ecotropic viral genome. Two proviruses had been mapped previously to chromosome 7, while single proviruses had been mapped to chromosomes 2, 9, and 11. The mapping of six additional proviruses, derived from C58/J, to chromosomes 1, 3, 5, 10, 18, and 19 is described. Another C58/J provirus was mapped to chromosome 8 and proved to be identical to the previously mapped C58v-1 virus inducibility gene of strain C58/Lw. Three dominant visible markers, hammer-toe (Hm), steel (Sl), and caracul-J (CaJ), located on chromosomes 5, 10, and 15, respectively, have been introduced onto the MEV genetic background by repeated backcrosses to provide additional linkage markers. It is estimated that approximately 50% of the genome can be screened by scoring 50 fully informative gametes from a linkage cross of the MEV-Hm, -Sl, -CaJ stock for the combination of viral and visible markers. A strategy for efficiently mapping new recessive visible mutations by pooling tissues for DNA extraction from mutant homozygotes among F2 progeny is described. Ways of further improving the MEV stock are discussed. The location of the Myb proto-oncogene is defined relative to Sl and one of the C58/J proviruses on chromosome 10. 相似文献

Summary We have used genetic linkage analysis in an effort to identify a gene responsible for bipolar affective disorder (BAD) in an Old Order Amish pedigree. The initial study of this pedigree showed strong evidence for linkage of the chromosome 11p15 markers HRAS1 and the insulin gene (INS) to BAD, whereas a second report found no evidence for linkage. We have independently determined the INS and HRAS1 genotypes from 81 individuals in this pedigree. A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was used to score INS alleles that are difficult to distinguish from one another by conventional agarose gel electrophoresis. In addition, we used four separate diagnostic models to score individuals with psychiatric illness as either affected or unaffected. No evidence of significant linkage between BAD and the markers was found with either two-point or multipoint analysis regardless of which diagnostic model was used. However, exclusion of the region of chromosome 11 between INS and RAS1 as a possible location for the BAD gene in this family depended on the diagnostic model. Further genetic linkage studies with additional DNA markers that span the genome are necessary to determine the chromosomal location of the BAD gene in this family. 相似文献
