Plant pararetroviruses integrate serendipitously into their host genomes. The banana genome harbors integrated copies of banana streak virus (BSV) named endogenous BSV (eBSV) that are able to release infectious pararetrovirus. In this investigation, we characterized integrants of three BSV species—Goldfinger (eBSGFV), Imove (eBSImV), and Obino l''Ewai (eBSOLV)—in the seedy Musa balbisiana Pisang klutuk wulung (PKW) by studying their molecular structure, genomic organization, genomic landscape, and infectious capacity. All eBSVs exhibit extensive viral genome duplications and rearrangements. eBSV segregation analysis on an F1 population of PKW combined with fluorescent in situ hybridization analysis showed that eBSImV, eBSOLV, and eBSGFV are each present at a single locus. eBSOLV and eBSGFV contain two distinct alleles, whereas eBSImV has two structurally identical alleles. Genotyping of both eBSV and viral particles expressed in the progeny demonstrated that only one allele for each species is infectious. The infectious allele of eBSImV could not be identified since the two alleles are identical. Finally, we demonstrate that eBSGFV and eBSOLV are located on chromosome 1 and eBSImV is located on chromosome 2 of the reference Musa genome published recently. The structure and evolution of eBSVs suggest sequential integration into the plant genome, and haplotype divergence analysis confirms that the three loci display differential evolution. Based on our data, we propose a model for BSV integration and eBSV evolution in the Musa balbisiana genome. The mutual benefits of this unique host-pathogen association are also discussed. 相似文献

The complete nucleotide sequences of two Chinese isolates of Beet soil-borne virus (BSBV) from the Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang provinces (designated BSBV-IM and BSBV-XJ, respectively) were found to share around 99% sequence identity with that of a previously reported German isolate (BSBV-G). The genome organization of the three isolates was identical. A diversity index (Pi) analysis indicated that the overall nucleotide variability of all RNAs among the three isolates was <7%, only for the 5' part of the first triple gene block gene on RNA3 was it >6%. Although the 3' end of BSBV RNA 3 was previously reported to be highly variable, the results of this study show that the total BSBV genomes are considerably conserved, especially RNAs 1 and 2. 相似文献

Summary It has been previously shown that in the genome of maize the multiple copies of the histone H3 and H4 multigenic families are organized into eight to ten subfamilies each containing a variable number of copies. Each subfamily is characterized by a specific proximal environment and thus can be revealed by blot-hybridization with its specific 5 probe. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) combined with monosomic analysis was used to localize several H3 and H4 subfamilies on maize chromosomes. H3 and H4 genes were found to be located on most, possibly all of the chromosomes, revealing a remarkably dispersed organization of these multigenic families. 相似文献

Genetic variability of the AIDS virus: nucleotide sequence analysis of two isolates from African patients 总被引:110,自引:0,他引:110
To define further the genetic variability of the human AIDS retrovirus, we have cloned and sequenced the complete genomes of two isolates obtained from Zairian patients. Their genetic organization is identical with that of isolates from Europe and North America, confirming a common evolutionary origin. However, the comparison of homologous proteins from these different isolates reveals a much greater extent of genetic polymorphism than previously observed. It is nevertheless possible to define conserved domains in the viral proteins, especially in the envelope, that could be of interest for the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of viral pathogenicity and for the development of diagnostic and therapeutic reagents. 相似文献

The Kresse strain of porcine parvovirus (PPV) was cloned into pUC19, and independent infectious clones were sequenced. The PPV Kresse and NADL-2 strains, which have different pathogenicities, shared an identical genomic organization and a high degree of sequence identity. Partial genomes (1.5 or 1.6 kb) of 15 field isolates were also amplified by PCR in regions with significant sequence differences between the laboratory strains. Five amino acid differences were consistently present within the VP1/VP2 coding region of the Kresse strain and virulent field isolates. A number of inconsistent point mutations were also found throughout the genomes of field isolates. In addition, among those with the vaccine amino acid profile, all but one isolate (IAF-3) contained a 127-bp noncoding direct repeat downstream of the capsid protein gene. The one exception was also the only vaccine-type PPV obtained from a mummified fetus. In order to identify genetic elements responsible for the distinct tropism (and possibly the pathology) of the Kresse strain, in vitro cell systems which differentiated the virulent from the vaccinal strains were established. Subsequently, chimeric infectious clones of the Kresse and NADL-2 strains were used to identify the allotropic determinant located in the VP1/VP2 region. The transfer of the BglII fragment of the Kresse genome, containing three amino acid differences, into the NADL-2 background, or the opposite construct, caused the phenotype of the target genome to revert to that of the parent strain of the BglII fragment. Prediction of the localization of amino acid differences on the basis of canine parvovirus capsid structure indicates that each is located on or near the outer surface of the virion. In particular, the position of one mutation (S-436-->P) maps by analogy to the threefold spike, the most accessible region of the capsid. 相似文献

A 5S rRNA gene (5S DNA) from the coniferPinus radiata
D. Don has been cloned and characterized at the nucleotide, genomic and chromosomal levels. Sequencing revealed a repeat unit of 524 base pairs which is present in approximately 3000 copies per diploid genome. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis indicated that these copies are organized in tandem arrays of various length. Using in situ hybridization techniques, the tandem arrays appear to be present on all of the chromosomes. This complexity of chromosomal organization contrasts markedly with the few sites of uniform length found in angiosperm plants such as wheat, pea, and maize. 相似文献

Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT) is the key enzyme that converts adenine to adenosine monophosphate (AMP) in the purine salvage pathway. It was found that several different forms of APRT gene exist in plants, but no APRT gene in maize has been reported up to now. In this study, a novel maize APRT gene was cloned and characterized through a combination of bioinformatic, RT-PCR and RACE strategies. The full length of APRT cDNA sequence is 1202 nucleotides, with an ORF encoding 214 amino acid residues. Alignment of the deduced protein with that of other plant APRT genes indicates that the new gene is the form 2 of maize APRT, thus it was named ZmAPT2. Through basic local alignment search tool, search in the genomic survey sequence database of MaizeGDB, the putative genomic sequence of ZmAPT2 was obtained. Comparison of the cDNA and genomic sequence of the ZmAPT2 gene revealed that it contained seven exons and six introns. The locations of the introns within the maize ZmAPT2 coding region were consistent with those in the previously isolated APRTs of arabidopsis and rice. RT-PCR analysis showed that ZmAPRT was constitutively expressing in different organs under high temperature and salt stresses. Southern blot analysis indicated that at least three APRT genes existed in maize genome. These results confirmed that the novel maize ZmAPT2 gene was truly identified, and its potential role in maize growth and development was discussed. 相似文献

Summary Cytoplasmic reversion to fertility in cms-S maize has been previously correlated with changes in mitochondrial genome organization, specifically with loss of the autonomously replicating linear plasmid-like DNAs, S1 and S2, and with accompanying alterations in the high molecular weight mtDNA (main genome) that specifically involved S1 and S2 sequences. These studies, however, dealt with cytoplasmic revertants occurring in the cms-VG M825 inbred line and in the cms-VG M825/Oh07 F1 hybrid. This paper deals principally with patterns of mitochondrial DNA reorganization accompanying cytoplasmic reversion to fertility in the WF9 inbred line nuclear background. Here the free S1 and S2 plasmid-like DNAs are retained in the revertants. Mitochondrial DNA analysis by Southern hybridization using cloned fragments of S1 and S2 shows altered organization around S-homologous regions in the main mitochondrial genome of revertants as compared with that of the male-sterile parental controls, but the pattern of main genome changes involving these regions differs from that of the cytoplasmic revertants that occurred in M825 and M825/Oh07 backgrounds. Similar experiments using a clone of the cytochrome oxidase I (COX I) gene of maize as a probe indicate that reorganization in this region is also involved in the changes in mtDNA that accompany cytoplasmic reversion to male fertility in cms-S WF9. The heterogeneity in patterns of reorganization of the main mtDNA genome that accompany cytoplasmic reversion in the same and different nuclear backgrounds are discussed in relation to cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS). 相似文献

We have isolated five clones containing human histone genes from a human genomic DNA library, using a cloned X. laevis histone H4 cDNA probe (pX1ch4). Each genomic clone has been mapped and the locations of the histone genes have been determined by blot hybridization and hybridization-selection of human histone mRNA. In contrast to the organization of previously characterized histone genes, the human histone genes are clustered in the genome but are not arranged into recognizable repeating units. The extreme lack of organization of the human histone genes may reflect the diminished requirement for rapid synthesis of large quantities of histone proteins during mammalian early development. 相似文献

The fungus Peronosclerospora sorghi [Weston and Uppal (Shaw)] infects both sorghum and maize and incites downy mildew disease. Pathogenic and molecular variability
among isolates of P. sorghi from sorghum and maize has been reported. In the present study we developed a DNA sequence characterized amplified region
(SCAR) marker for identification of isolates of P. sorghi from maize by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) primer OPB15 consistently
amplified a 1,000 base pairs (bp) product in PCR only from DNA of P. sorghi isolates from maize and not from isolates of sorghum. The PCR-amplified 1,000-bp product was cloned and sequenced. The sequence
of the SCAR marker was used for designing specific primers for identification of maize isolates of P. sorghi. The SCAR primers amplified a 800 bp fragment only from genomic DNA of maize isolates of P. sorghi. The SCAR primers developed in this study are highly specific and reproducible, and proved to be powerful tool for identification
of P. sorghi isolates from maize. 相似文献

Genome of a mononucleosis Epstein-Barr virus contains DNA fragments previously regarded to be unique to Burkitt's lymphoma isolates 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22

We wished to learn whether the genomes of strains of EMB isolated from patients with infectious mononucleosis are consistently distinguishable from those of strains from Burkitt's lymphoma. The genome of a new transforming strains (FF41) of EBV isolated from saliva of a patient with uncomplicated infectious mononucleosis was compared with the DNA of B95-8, the only other available virus from mononucleosis. It had been found previously that B95-8 has a deletion of about 8 Md in the region of the physical map represented by the Eco RI C, Hind III D, and Bam HI I fragments. The W91 and HR-1 isolates for Burkitt's lymphoma are not deleted in this region and it had been proposed that additional information was characteristic of EBV isolates from Burkitt's lymphoma. By means of restriction enzyme analysis, blot hybridization experiments and molecular cloning of FF41 DNA we demonstrate that the deletion found in B95-8 is not present in the new mononucleosis isolate. The FF41 genome contains an extra 8 Md of DNA, represented by Bam HI fragments B', W' and I', which are located in a larger Eco RI C fragment. Thus the genome of this salivary isolate contains DNA that had previously been regarded to be unique to strains from Burkitt's lymphoma. It is therefore unlikely that major insertions or deletions in the EBV genome account for differences in disease manifestation following EBV infection. 相似文献

Analysis of distal flanking regions of maize 19-kDa zein genes 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Two genomic fragments from maize, each containing a 19-kDa zein gene with extensive flanking regions, have been sequenced and examined by computer-aided analysis and Southern blotting techniques. Sequence analysis of the distal flanking sequences has revealed interesting sequence motifs, some not seen before. In particular, four nearly identical, G + C-rich, 17 to 21-bp perfect palindromes were found clustered in a 133-bp stretch lying 2 kb upstream from the zein-coding region in the genomic clone pMS2. These palindromic sequences exhibit other interesting features, including a precise spatial organization with respect to each other, and their proximity to several other repeated motifs in the same region. Southern blot analysis indicates that these palindromes, or closely related sequences, are found frequently in the maize genome. Possible secondary structures for the palindrome units are presented, which resemble functionally important sequences found upstream from other eukaryotic genes. 相似文献

An outbreak associated with Streptococcus suis infection in humans emerged in Sichuan province, China in 2005. The outbreak is atypical for the apparent large number of human cases, high fatality rate and geographical spread. To determine whether the bacterium has changed, we compared both human and animal isolates from the Sichuan outbreak with those collected previously within China and in other countries using whole genome PCR scanning (WGPScaning) comparative sequencing of several known virulence factor genes and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) analysis. WGPScanning analysis showed that all primer pairs yielded PCR products of the expected sizes in all four strains tested. The nucleotide sequences of all the detected virulence factor genes are identical in the four strains and MLST results showed that the four isolates studied and reference strain all belonged to the ST1 complex. No new genetic changes were found in the genome structure of the isolates from this Sichuan outbreak. 相似文献

The ability to obtain infectious papillomavirus virions from molecularly cloned DNA has not been previously reported. We demonstrate here that viral genomes isolated from a recombinant++ DNA clone of cottontail rabbit papillomavirus (CRPV) gave rise to infectious virus when inoculated into cottontail rabbit skin. Replication occurred in papillomas that formed at inoculation sites. Extract of a DNA-induced papilloma was serially passaged to naive rabbits with high efficiency. Complete virus was fractionated on cesium chloride density gradients, and papillomavirus particles were visualized by electron microscopy. CRPV DNA isolated from virions contained DNA sequence polymorphisms that are characteristic of the input CRPV-WA strain of virus, thereby proving that the newly generated virus originated from the molecularly cloned viral genome. These findings indicate that this will be a useful system in which to perform genetic analysis of viral gene functions involved in replication. 相似文献

Summary The maize controlling element activator, Ac, is capable of self-transposition. We isolated a spontaneously arisen derivative, (wx-m9Ds-cy) of the Ac element present in the wx-m9Ac mutant which does not itself transpose but can be induced to transpose by the presence of an Ac element elsewhere in the genome. The wx-m9Ds-cy derivative reverts to an active Ac form. A comparison of cloned isolates of the three forms of the element shows no differences in restriction enzyme pattern. Southern analysis of the genome organization of the elements shows marked differences in the methylation pattern. The active Ac element is methylated at one end of the element while the inactive derivative wx-m9Ds-cy is completely methylated at all HpaII sites in the element. The revertant Ac is partially demethylated. Reversion of the mutants to the active form appears to be at least a two-step process. 相似文献

Isolation and characterization of faithful and altered clones of the genomes of cauliflower mosaic virus isolates Cabb B-JI, CM4-184, and Bari I 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Full-length genomes of cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) isolates Cabb B-JI, CM4-184, and Bari I have been cloned in the SalGI site of plasmid pAT 153. The cloned DNAs were characterized by restriction mapping and infectivity assays. All the sites present in the virion DNAs were found in the cloned DNAs. Comparison of restriction maps with those of DNA from two other isolates which have been recently completely sequenced revealed a close relationship among the different isolates. Some of the clones appear to be faithful copies of the viral genomes and these viral inserts are infectious when inoculated into turnip plants. Various clones with deletions in the CaMV DNA have been isolated and characterized. Some of them may correspond to deletions naturally occurring in a subpopulation of the virus whereas others occurred during cloning. None of the deleted fragments are infectious when inoculated into plants. Strikingly, all the deletions overlap one or two of the specific single-stranded breaks characteristic of caulimoviruses, suggesting that sequences surrounding the breaks are not dispensable. 相似文献
