The human connexin gene family of gap junction proteins: distinct chromosomal locations but similar structures. 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Connexins are protein subunits that constitute gap junction channels. Two members of this gene family, connexin43 (Cx43) and connexin32 (Cx32), are abundantly expressed in the heart and liver, respectively. Human genomic DNA analysis revealed the presence of two loci for Cx43: an expressed gene and a processed pseudogene. The expressed gene (GJA1) was mapped to human chromosome 6 and the pseudogene (GJA1P) to chromosome 5. To determine whether Cx32 was linked to Cx43, somatic cell hybrids were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction and hybridization, resulting in the assignment of the gene for Cx32 (GJB1) to the X chromosome at Xp11----q22. Comparison of the structures of connexin genes suggests that members of this multigene family arose from a single precursor, but evolved to distinct chromosomal locations. 相似文献

DNAs of all inbred mouse strains contain multiple copies (18 to 28 copies per haploid mouse genome) of endogenous xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related sequences detectable by Southern analysis with a xenotropic murine leukemia virus env gene-specific probe. After PvuII digestion, we identified a subset of xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related sequences that are well resolved by agarose gel electrophoresis and can be mapped to specific chromosomes by using recombinant inbred mouse strains. Interestingly, three of six xenotropic proviral loci that we mapped were integrated near genes encoding mouse lymphocyte antigens (Ly-m22, chromosome 1; Ly-m6, chromosome 2; and Ly-m10, chromosome 19) and a fourth xenotropic proviral locus mapped near a gene on chromosome 4 that has a major influence on xenotropic virus cell surface antigen levels. These studies indicate that xenotropic proviral loci are located on many different mouse chromosomes and may be useful markers for molecularly cloning and characterizing regions of the mouse genome important in lymphocyte development. 相似文献

We have analyzed the genomic structure of ribonuclease H1 (RNase H1) loci in the human genome. Human PAC library screening combined with database searches indicated that several loci are present. The transcribed gene is localized on chromosome 2p25. This was confirmed by RNA analysis of a monochromosomal hybrid cell line that expressed human chromosome 2. These data contradict a previous report, as well as the current Human Genome Project (HGP) annotation, which had placed the gene on chromosome 17p11.2. This location represents a pseudogene. Another highly similar pseudogene is present at a separate locus located more distal on chromosome 17p, while a third pseudogene is localized on chromosome 1q. 相似文献

Summary New linkage data are presented for the situation of five previously unlocated isozymic loci of the tomato and closely related species with homosequential chromosomes.Prx-1 lies on chromosome 1, where it is also linked withSkdh-1; Aps-2 is linked withGot-4 on chromosome 8;Tpi-2 has been allocated to chromosome 4; and a linkage has been detected betweenPgi-1 andEst-4, whose respective chromosome has not yet been determined. These and previously published data have been summarized in the form of an isozyme linkage map. Twenty-two loci have thus been mapped on nine of the twelve tomato chromosomes. We discuss some new applications of mapped isozymic genes. In certain types of segregations, isozymic genes are far more efficient than morphological markers in providing linkage information. They greatly expedite the cytogenetic investigation of species hybrids and can be utilized to facilitate backcross transfers of genes from wild to cultivated taxa. 相似文献

Opal suppressor phosphoserine tRNA gene and pseudogene are located on human chromosomes 19 and 22, respectively 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
An opal suppressor phosphoserine tRNA gene and pseudogene have been isolated from a human DNA library and sequenced (O'Neill, V., Eden, F., Pratt, K., and Hatfield, D. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 2501-2508). Southern hybridization of human genomic DNA with an opal suppressor tRNA probe suggested that the gene and pseudogene are present in single copy. In this study, we have determined the chromosome location of the human gene and pseudogene by utilizing a 193-base pair fragment encoding the opal suppressor phosphoserine tRNA gene as probe to examine DNAs isolated from human-rodent somatic cell hybrids that have segregated human chromosomes. These studies show that the probe hybridized with two regions in the human genome; one is located on chromosome 19 and the second on chromosome 22. By comparing the restriction sites within these two regions to those previously determined for the human opal suppressor phosphoserine tRNA gene and pseudogene, we tentatively assigned the gene to chromosome 19 and the pseudogene to chromosome 22. These assignments were confirmed by utilizing a 350-base pair fragment which was isolated from the 5'-flanking region of the human gene as probe. This fragment hybridized only to chromosome 19, demonstrating unequivocally that the opal suppressor phosphoserine tRNA gene is located on chromosome 19. The flanking probe hybridized to a single homologous band in hamster and in mouse DNA to which the gene probe also hybridized, demonstrating that the 5'-flanking region of the opal suppressor tRNA gene is conserved in mammals. Restriction analysis of DNAs obtained from the white blood cells of 10 separate individuals demonstrates that the gene is polymorphic. This study provides two additional markers for the human genome and constitutes only the second set of two tRNA genes assigned to human chromosomes. 相似文献

Thinopyrum elongatum serves as an excellent gene pool for wheat improvement. Genes for resistance to many biotic and abiotic stresses have been transferred from Th. elongatum to wheat through chromosome manipulation. For breeding programs, molecular markers enable screening of a large number of genotypes for alien chromosome introgressions. The main objective of the present study was to develop and characterize EST (expressed sequence tags) and PLUG (PCR-based Landmark Unique Gene) markers that can distinguish Th. elongatum chromatin from the wheat genomes. A total of 258 mapped EST primer pairs and 46 PLUG primer pairs were tested on DNA from wheat Chinese Spring (CS) and CS-Th. elongatum addition lines. The results showed that 43 primer pairs could be effectively mapped to specific Th. elongatum chromosomes. Twenty-two of the 43 markers displayed similar homoeologous chromosome locations to hexaploid wheat. Nine markers mapped to different linkage groups between wheat and Th. elongatum, while 12 makers mapped on two or three different Th. elongatum chromosomes. A comparison of molecular marker locations indicated that Th. elongatum genome was closely related to the D genome of wheat, and chromosome rearrangements and duplication had occurred in Th. elongatum and the wheat genomes. The markers will be useful in comparative gene mapping, chromosome evolutionary analysis, and gene introgression for wheat improvement using Th. elongatum accessions as gene donors. 相似文献

A maximum likelihood method for analyzing pseudogene evolution: implications for silent site evolution in humans and rodents. 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Carlos D Bustamante Rasmus Nielsen Daniel L Hartl 《Molecular biology and evolution》2002,19(1):110-117
We present a new likelihood method for detecting constrained evolution at synonymous sites and other forms of nonneutral evolution in putative pseudogenes. The model is applicable whenever the DNA sequence is available from a protein-coding functional gene, a pseudogene derived from the protein-coding gene, and an orthologous functional copy of the gene. Two nested likelihood ratio tests are developed to test the hypotheses that (1) the putative pseudogene has equal rates of silent and replacement substitutions; and (2) the rate of synonymous substitution in the functional gene equals the rate of substitution in the pseudogene. The method is applied to a data set containing 74 human processed-pseudogene loci, 25 mouse processed-pseudogene loci, and 22 rat processed-pseudogene loci. Using the informatics resources of the Human Genome Project, we localized 67 of the human-pseudogene pairs in the genome and estimated the GC content of a large surrounding genomic region for each. We find that, for pseudogenes deposited in GC regions similar to those of their paralogs, the assumption of equal rates of silent and replacement site evolution in the pseudogene is upheld; in these cases, the rate of silent site evolution in the functional genes is approximately 70% the rate of evolution in the pseudogene. On the other hand, for pseudogenes located in genomic regions of much lower GC than their functional gene, we see a sharp increase in the rate of silent site substitutions, leading to a large rate of rejection for the pseudogene equality likelihood ratio test. 相似文献

Aldose reductase (alditol:NAD(P)+ 1-oxidoreductase; EC 1.1.1.21) (AR) catalyzes the reduction of several aldehydes, including that of glucose, to the corresponding sugar alcohol. Using a complementary DNA clone encoding human AR, we mapped the gene sequences to human chromosomes 1, 3, 7, 9, 11, 13, 14, and 18 by somatic cell hybridization. By in situ hybridization analysis, sequences were localized to human chromosomes 1q32-q42, 3p12, 7q31-q35, 9q22, 11p14-p15, and 13q14-q21. As a putative functional AR gene has been mapped to chromosome 7 and a putative pseudogene to chromosome 3, the sequences on the other seven chromosomes may represent other active genes, non-aldose reductase homologous sequences, or pseudogenes. 相似文献

Two genes conferring resistance to the barley stripe rust found in Mexico and South America, previously identified as race 24, were mapped to the M arms of barley chromosomes 7 and 4 in a doubled haploid population using molecular markers and the quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping approach. The resistance gene on chromosome 7 had a major effect, accounting for 57% of the variation in disease severity. The resistance gene on chromosome 4 had a minor effect, accounting for 10% of the variation in trait expression. Two pairs of restriction fragment length polymorphism markers are being used to introgress the resistance genes to North American spring barley using molecular marker-assisted backcrossing.Ore.

A physical map of the locations of the 5S rDNA genes and their relative positions with respect to 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA genes and a C genome specific repetitive DNA sequence was produced for the chromosomes of diploid, tetraploid, and hexaploid oat species using in situ hybridization. The A genome diploid species showed two pairs of rDNA loci and two pairs of 5S loci located on both arms of one pair of satellited chromosomes. The C genome diploid species showed two major pairs and one minor pair of rDNA loci. One pair of subtelocentric chromosomes carried rDNA and 5S loci physically separated on the long arm. The tetraploid species (AACC genomes) arising from these diploid ancestors showed two pairs of rDNA loci and three pairs of 5S loci. Two pairs of rDNA loci and 2 pairs of 5S loci were arranged as in the A genome diploid species. The third pair of 5S loci was located on one pair of A-C translocated chromosomes using simultaneous in situ hybridization with 5S rDNA genes and a C genome specific repetitive DNA sequence. The hexaploid species (AACCDD genomes) showed three pairs of rDNA loci and six pairs of 5S loci. One pair of 5S loci was located on each of two pairs of C-A/D translocated chromosomes. Comparative studies of the physical arrangement of rDNA and 5S loci in polyploid oats and the putative A and C genome progenitor species suggests that A genome diploid species could be the donor of both A and D genomes of polyploid oats. Key words : oats, 5S rDNA genes, 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA genes, C genome specific repetitive DNA sequence, in situ hybridization, genome evolution. 相似文献

Mouse genomic DNA harboring the full coding sequence of cyclin G1 was cloned and analyzed. The locations of five coding exons and the intron–exon boundary sequences were found to be conserved between the mouse and the human genes. Two putative binding sites for thep53tumor suppressor gene product were found around the first exon: one was located in the 5′ regulatory region, and the other was in the first intron. The mouse cyclin G1 gene was mapped to bands A5 to B1 of chromosomes 11 (11A5–B1) by FISH using genomic DNA clone as a biotinylated probe. The location of mouse cyclin G1 is syntenic to that of its human homologue, which we previously mapped to 5q32–q34 of chromosome 5. An additional faint signal was detected on chromosome 4 (4B1–C2), probably indicating the presence of a cyclin G1-related gene or pseudogene in the mouse genome. 相似文献

The availability of genetic maps and phenotypic data of segregating populations allows to localize and map agronomically important
genes, and to identify closely associated molecular markers to be used in marker-assisted selection and positional cloning.
The objective of the present work was to develop a durum wheat intervarietal genetic and physical map based on genomic microsatellite
or genomic simple sequence repeats (gSSR) markers and expressed sequence tag (EST)-derived microsatellite (EST-SSR) markers.
A set of 122 new EST-SSR loci amplified by 100 primer pairs was genetically mapped on the wheat A and B genome chromosomes.
The whole map also comprises 149 gSSR markers amplified by 120 primer pairs used as anchor chromosome loci, two morphological
markers (Black colour, Bla1, and spike glaucousness, Ws) and two seed storage protein loci (Gli-A2 and Gli-B2). The majority of SSR markers tested (182) was chromosome-specific. Out of 275 loci 241 loci assembled in 25 linkage groups
assigned to the chromosomes of the A and B genome and 34 remained unlinked. A higher percentage of markers (54.4%), localized
on the B genome chromosomes, in comparison to 45.6% distributed on the A genome. The whole map covered 1,605 cM. The B genome
accounted for 852.2 cM of genetic distance; the A genome basic map spanned 753.1 cM with a minimum length of 46.6 cM for chromosome
5A and a maximum of 156.2 cM for chromosome 3A and an average value of 114.5 cM. The primer sets that amplified two or more
loci mapped to homoeologous as well as to non-homoeologous sites. Out of 241 genetically mapped loci 213 (88.4%) were physically
mapped by using the nulli-tetrasomic, ditelosomic and a stock of 58 deletion lines dividing the A and B genome chromosomes
in 94 bins. No discrepancies concerning marker order were observed but the cytogenetic maps revealed in some cases small genetic
distance covered large physical regions. Putative function for mapped SSRs were assigned by searching against GenBank nonredundant
database using TBLASTX algorithms. 相似文献

A human genomic DNA sequence derived from glutamate dehydrogenase pseudogene 1 was used as a probe for in situ hybridization to the chromosomes of three lemur species, Eulemur fulvus mayottensis (EFU), E. macaco macaco (EMA), and E. coronatus (ECO). This sequence, which is 98% homologous to the nucleotide sequence of the gene for human glutamate dehydrogenase (GLUD), was found on homologous bands of three morphologically similar chromosome segments, EFU14, EMA5p, and ECO8q, confirming that different Robertsonian translocations occurred during the evolution of these three species. These loci on the lemur chromosomes probably correspond to the human GLUD locus. 相似文献

The human serine/threonine protein casein kinase II (CK II) contains two distinct catalytic subunits, alpha and alpha 1, which are encoded by different genes. A combination of segregation analysis of rodent-human hybrid cells and chromosomal in situ hybridization have localized the human CK II-alpha DNA sequence to two loci: 11p15.5-p15.4 and 20p13. In contrast, the CK II-alpha' gene has been mapped to chromosome 16 by somatic cell hybrid analysis. Taken together with our previous assignment of the CK II regulatory beta-subunit gene to 6p12-p21, these results indicate that although the products of these genes form a single biological complex, they are encoded on different human chromosomes. Further analysis should determine whether both loci of CK II-alpha are functional, or perhaps one of the two constitutes a pseudogene. 相似文献

RFLP mapping of isozymes,RAPD and QTLs for grain shape,brown planthopper resistance in a doubled haploid rice population 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17

We have developed an RFLP framework map with 146 RFLP markers based on a doubled haploid population derived from a cross between an indica variety IR64 and a japonica variety Azucena. The population carries 50.2% of IR64 loci and 49.8% of Azucena loci, indicating an equal amount of genetic materials from each parent has been transmitted to the progenies through anther culture. However, some markers show segregation distortion. These distorted marker loci are located on 10 chromosomal segments. Using this map we were able to place 8 isozymes, 14 RAPDs, 12 cloned genes, 1 gene for brown planthopper (BPH) resistance, and 12 QTLs for grain length, grain width and length/width ratio onto rice chromosomes. The major gene for BPH resistance was mapped on chromosome 12 near RG463 and isozyme Sdh-1. Most of the QTLs identified for the three grain characters were closely linked on chromosomes 1, 2, 3 and 10. We concluded that the RFLP framework map presented here will be useful for mapping other genes segregating in this doubled haploid population. Thus rapid generation of doubled haploid lines and their unbiased segregation make it very attractive for gene mapping. 相似文献

We recently cloned three membrane guanylyl cyclases, designated GC-D, GC-E, and GC-F, from rat olfactory tissue and eye. Amino acid sequence homology suggests that they may compose a new gene subfamily of guanylyl cyclase receptors specifically expressed in sensory tissues. Their chromosomal localization was determined by mouse interspecific backcross analysis. The GC-D, GC-E, and GC-F genes (Gucy2d, Gucy2e,andGucy2f) are dispersed through the mouse genome in that they map to chromosomes 7, 11, and X, respectively. Close proximity of the mouse GC-D gene toOmp(olfactory marker protein) andHbb(hemoglobin β-chain complex) suggests that the human homolog gene maps to 11p15.4 or 11q13.4–q14.1. The human GC-F gene was localized to the long arm of chromosome Xq22 by fluorescencein situhybridization. The genomic organization of the mouse GC-E gene was determined and compared to other guanylyl cyclase genes. The mouse GC-D, GC-E, and GC-F genomic clones contain identical exon–intron boundaries within their extracellular and cytoplasmic domains, demonstrating the conservation of the gene structures. With respect to human genetic diseases, GC-E mapped to mouse chromosome 11 within a syntenic region on human chromosome 17p13 that has been linked with loci for autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa and Leber congenital amaurosis. No apparent disease loci have been yet linked to the locations of the GC-D or GC-F genes. 相似文献
