Genetic linkage, molecular analysis, and in situ hybridization have identified TYR and D11S388 as markers flanking the chromosome 11 breakpoint in a large pedigree where a balanced translocation, t(1;11)(q43;q21), segregates with schizophrenia and related affective disorders. Somatic cell hybrids, separating the two translocation chromosomes from each other and from the normal homologues, have been produced with the aid of immunomagnetic sorting for chromosome 1– and chromosome 11–encoded cell-surface antigens. The genes for two of these antigens map on either side of the 11q breakpoint. Immunomagnetic bead sorting was also used to isolate two stable X-irradiation hybrids for each cell-surface antigen. Each hybrid carries only chromosome 11 fragments. Translocation and X-irradiation hybrids were analyzed, mainly by PCR, for the presence of 19 chromosome 11 and 4 chromosome 1 markers. Ten newly designed primers are reported. The X-irradiation hybrids were also studied cytogenetically, for human DNA content, by in situ Cot1 DNA hybridization and by painting the Alu-PCR products from these four lines back onto normal human metaphases. The generation of the translocation hybrids and of the chromosome 11q fragment hybrids is a necessary preliminary to determining whether a schizophrenia-predisposition gene SCZD2 is encoded at this site. 相似文献

Localization of the intronless gene coding for calmodulin-like protein CLP to human chromosome 10p13-ter 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The functional intronless gene coding for a calmodulin-like protein (CLP) has been localized to human chromosome 10p13-ter. Chromosomal assignment was performed by Southern blot analysis of DNA from human-rodent somatic cell hybrids and amplification of a CLP gene-specific 1090-bp DNA fragment by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on DNA from human-hamster cell hybrids. Chromosomal sublocalization was carried out by in situ hybridization of human chromosome metaphase spreads. The CLP gene is the first member of the human calmodulin/calmodulin-like gene family to be chromosomally sublocalized. Its presence near the telomeric end of the short arm of chromosome 10 may be of significance with respect to its highly (epithelial) cell-type restricted expression in vivo and strong downregulation upon malignant transformation. The generation of a human CLP gene-specific sequence tag site specified by the two primers used for PCR should prove useful for future linkage studies. 相似文献

Summary Kinins, peptide products of kininogens, may be involved in hypertensive and diabetic diseases, and inflammatory disorders. The human kininogen gene (KNG) has been mapped to chromosome 3, using a panel of human-hamster somatic cell hybrids by polymerase chain reaction of hybrid DNA with gene-specific primers. KNG was further assigned to 3q26-3qter, using DNA from a second panel of chromosome 3 deletion mapping cell hybrids. 相似文献

A strategy for the rapid isolation of DNA probes from radiation-fusion Chinese hamster cell hybrids containing overlapping portions of the murine X chromosome based on the interspersed repetitive sequence polymerase chain reaction (IRS-PCR) previously used with human somatic cell hybrids has been developed. This specific amplification of mouse DNA on a hamster background depends on the use of primers directed to the B2 short interspersed repeat element family and the R repeat, from the long interspersed repeat element family, L1. Two sets of amplification conditions, which gave specific amplification of mouse DNA from either a mouse X-monochromosomal hybrid or irradiation-fusion hybrids having reduced X content, were defined. The mouse X-only chromosome hybrid yielded approximately 20 discrete reproducible bands, while the irradiation-fusion hybrids yielded between 1 and 10 discrete products. Comparison of different irradiation-fusion hybrids has allowed the definition of both specific and shared products corresponding to different regions within the overlapping X-chromosome fragments present within these hybrids. Use of such hybrids and the IRS-PCR technique has allowed the isolation of probes corresponding to the central region of the mouse X chromosome that contains the X-inactivation center. The method should be widely applicable to the isolation of mouse DNA sequences from mouse hybrid cell lines on either human or Chinese hamster backgrounds. 相似文献

Pancreatic colipase is a 12-kDa polypeptide cofactor for pancreatic lipase (EC 3.1.1.3), an enzyme essential for the absorption of dietary long-chain triglyceride fatty acids. Colipase is thought to anchor lipase noncovalently to the surface of lipid micelles, counteracting the destabilizing influence of intestinal bile salts. Using primers derived from the known amino acid sequence, we have used the polymerase chain reaction to produce a cDNA clone corresponding to the complete coding region of the human procolipase mRNA. Southern blot analysis of genomic DNA from a panel of mouse-human somatic cell hybrids indicated that the colipase gene (CLPS) resides on human chromosome 6. Further analysis of somatic cell hybrids carrying chromosome 6 translocations permitted regional localization of CLPS to the 6p21.1-pter region. 相似文献

We have generated chromosome 3-specific recombinant libraries in both lambda and cosmid cloning vectors starting with somatic cell hybrids (hamster/human) containing either an intact chromosome 3 or a chromosome 3 with an interstitial deletion removing 75% of long-arm sequences. The libraries contained between 2 X 10(5) and 5 X 10(6) independent recombinants. Approximately 2% of the recombinants in these libraries contain inserts of human DNA. These were identified by hybridizing the recombinants to radioactively labeled total human DNA. Over 2500 recombinants containing human DNA were isolated from these various libraries and DNA was prepared from each of them. This represents 80,000 kb of cloned chromosome 3 sequences. One-third of the DNAs were digested with EcoRI or HindIII, and fragments free of repetitive sequences were radioactively labeled using random hexanucleotide primers and tested as unique sequence hybridization probes. Over 6500 of the fragments were tested and of these 758 were unique sequence probes with minimal or no background hybridization. Their hybridization only to chromosome 3 was verified. These probes, which were derived from 452 independent recombinants, should provide an effective saturation of human chromosome 3. 相似文献

The mouse brown locus encodes a tyrosinase-related protein, TRP-1. The human homolog of TRP-1 was recently cloned from a melanoma cDNA library and sequenced. We have made oligonucleotide primers corresponding to the human TRP1 3' untranslated region and used them to map the human TRP1 gene by species-specific PCR in human/rodent somatic cell hybrids. By this means, the human TRP1 gene has been mapped to the short arm of chromosome 9. 相似文献

Direct nonradioactive in situ hybridization of somatic cell hybrid DNA to human lymphocyte chromosomes 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Biotinylated DNA from various human-rodent hybrids was hybridized to human lymphocyte spreads after preannealing of the repeated sequences with sonicated total human DNA. Fluorescent labeling was achieved by successive treatments with fluorescein-labeled avidin and biotinylated antiavidin antibody. The use of labeled total DNA from hybrids with known chromosome composition permits the fluorescent staining-("painting") of specific chromosomes, or parts thereof, in human lymphocyte metaphases. Alternatively, the human chromosome content of cell hybrids with unknown chromosome composition is directly assessed from the labeling pattern of human lymphocyte spreads using the total hybrid DNA as probe. 相似文献

Using the human/hamster cell line UCTP2A-3, we have generated and isolated three hybrids, each containing a novel human chromosome 3p break. All chromosome 3 materials distal to the breaks were lost. Two of the breakpoints were produced using aphidicolin induction; the third breakpoint occurred spontaneously. The aphidicolin-induced breaks were localized to 3p21.1 in hybrid AR1 and to p14.1 in hybrid AR2. The spontaneous break was localized to 3p11 in hybrid 2A-3-1. These hybrids were used to sublocalize 18 chromosome 3 probes further to five regions within 3cen-p21.1. The new hybrids and sublocalized markers will be useful in the study and characterization of the 3p11, 3p14.1, and 3p21.1 segments of chromosome 3. 相似文献

Assignment of two of the translation initiation factor-4E (EIF4EL1 and EIF4EL2) genes to human chromosomes 4 and 20 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The eukaryotic translation initiation factor (eIF-4E) has recently been cloned from human, mouse, and yeast. This polypeptide is the rate-limiting component of the eukaryotic translation apparatus and is involved in the mRNA-ribosome binding step of eukaryotic protein synthesis. We have designed oligonucleotide primers to the 3' untranslated region of the gene encoding eIF-4E and specifically amplified the human gene in human/rodent somatic cell hybrids using the polymerase chain reaction. By this method, one of the human eIF-4E genes (EIF4EL1, eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E-like 1) has been mapped to human chromosome 4qter-4p15. In addition, we have localized a second eIF-4E gene (EIF4EL2, eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E-like 2) to human chromosome 20 by Southern blot analysis of mapping panels established from human/rodent somatic cell hybrids. 相似文献

Chromosomal localization of human glutathione transferase genes of classes alpha,mu and pi 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

Summary The numerous human glutathione transferases may be divided into three classes, mu, alpha and pi. Using a panel of human-rodent somatic cell hybrids and DNA probes specific for each of the three classes, we have mapped a class mu gene to chromosome 3, a class alpha gene to chromosome 6 and a class pi gene to chromosome 11. The two latter assignments confirm earlier reports, whereas the assignment of the class mu gene represents a new addition to the human gene map. 相似文献

In this study we have utilized human elastin cDNAs in molecular hybridizations to establish the chromosomal location of the human elastin gene. First, in situ hybridizations were performed with metaphase chromosomes from phytohemagglutinin-stimulated human peripheral blood lymphocytes. In three separate experiments using two different regions of human elastin cDNAs, the distribution of grains was found to be concentrated on the long arm of chromosome 7 within the [q11.1-21.1] region, and the peak number of grains coincided with the locus 7q11.2. Second, hybridizations with a panel of human-rodent cell hybrids showed concordance with human chromosome 7. Third, PCR analyses with elastin-specific primers of DNA from a hybrid cell line containing chromosome 7 as the only human chromosome yielded a product of the expected size, while DNA containing human chromosome 2, but not chromosome 7, did not result in a product. The results indicate that the human elastin gene is located in the proximal region of the long arm of chromosome 7. The precise localization of the elastin gene in the human genome is useful in establishing genetic linkage between inheritance of an allele with a mutated elastin gene and a heritable disorder. 相似文献

Neoplastic cells, transformed cells and some normal mammalian cells secrete large amounts of plasminogen activator (PA), an arginine-specific protease which converts plasminogen to plasmin. To study the regulation of PA, we have obtained two classes of mouse-human somatic cell hybrids. PG19, a mouse PA+ cell line, was fused with C32 (human PA+) or human diploid fibroblasts (PA?). All hybrids secreted PA. Human- and mouse-specific forms of PA were distinguished in these hybrids by electrophoretic methods. While all hybrids produced the murine PA, many produced the human PA and some did not. All hybrids which produced human PA had chromosome 6 in common. The absence of each of the other human chromosomes did not affect PA expression, while the absence of chromosome 6 correlated with the lack of human PA. We conclude that chromosome 6 carries the structural gene for human PA. These experiments also show that the fusion of mouse PA+ cells with human PA-cells results in the activation of the human PA gene. 相似文献

We describe here a method for DNA fingerprinting of human chromosomes by Alu-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of DNA from monochromosomal hybrids, following digestion with restriction endonucleases. DNA digestion with restriction enzymes prior to PCR amplification reduces the total number of amplified fragments. The number and pattern of bands of PCR products observed in an electrophoretic medium are chromosome specific and provide a "fingerprint signature" for individual human chromosomes. Using this approach, we have produced fingerprints for human chromosomes 2, 5, 7, 9, and 12. The applicability of this approach to chromosome identification was assessed by comparing the fingerprints obtained for two different hybrids containing chromosome 7. DNA fragments specific for the long and the short arms of human chromosome 12 have also been identified. In addition, Alu-PCR-generated DNA fragments, specific for different chromosomes, were used to probe Southern blots of a hybrid cell panel to identify human chromosomes present in hybrid cell lines. The chromosomal specificity of these probes permits the identification of intact as well as rearranged chromosomes composed of segments arising from more than one chromosome. 相似文献

"PCR-karyotype" of human chromosomes in somatic cell hybrids 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Amplification of human DNA sequences in 16 monochromosomal somatic cell hybrids containing different human chromosomes were performed by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using primer directed at human-specific regions of Alu or L1, the two major classes of interspersed repetitive sequences (IRS-PCR). A chromosome-specific pattern of amplification products was observed on agarose gels run with ethidium bromide, producing a "PCR-karyotype." This simple gel analysis provides a rapid method for identifying and monitoring the human chromosomal content of monochromosomal somatic cell hybrids without conventional cytogenetic analysis. Hybrids containing multiple human chromosome produce complex gel patterns, but identification of chromosome content can be achieved by hybridization of PCR products against a reference panel of monochromosomal or highly reduced hybrids representing each human chromosome. This dot-blot method also enables identification of human marker chromosomes or translocated pieces in hybrids that are not identifiable by cytogenetic methods. These IRS-PCR methods should greatly reduce the need for more laborious cytogenetic, isozyme, and Southern blot characterizations of human-rodent cell hybrids. 相似文献

Electrofusion of mesophyll protoplasts from two male sterile dihaploid Solanum tuberosum genotypes. DHAK-11 and DHAK-33, was performed. Selection of putative fusion products was based on vigorous callus growth. Regeneration of rooted putative hybrid plants was scored 14 weeks after fusion. Characterization of hybrids was performed by use of morphological assessment, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), and cytological and isozyme analysis. The rate of regenerated hybrids from callus was ca 6%. Of the putative hybrids, 45% were confirmed as true hybrids. Morphological assessment of the putative hybrids revealed that tetraploid and neartetraploid hybrids were vigorous plants with intermediate characteristics between the two parental phenotypes in respect to internode length, leaf size and shape, and purple pigmentation on the abaxial side of the leaves. Near-hexaploid hybrids were slender plants with small leaves and short petioles. Selected RAPD primers showed unique marker bands for the two parental genotypes. Hybrid plants revealed the unique marker bands from both parents. A total of 53 randomly chosen decamer primers were tested and 26 primers (49%) detected polymorphism between the two dihaploid parentals. Two primers revealed that one parental marker band was missing in two aneuploid hybrids. However, of 51 putative hybrids, a double test with two independently chosen primers showed unequivocally the hybrid character of 23 plants. The ploidy level of the hybrids was analysed by chromosome numbers in root tip cells and by number of guard cell chloroplasts. A strong correlation between the chromosome number and the number of chloroplasts was obtained. The hybrid nature of all RAPD-verified hybrids was confirmed by isozyme analysis with malate dehydrogenase. 相似文献

Sublocalization of an invasion-inducing locus and other genes on human chromosome 7. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

By somatic cell fusion studies between noninvasive mouse T-lymphoma cells and invasive human activated normal T-cells we have previously shown that the genetic information responsible for the induction of invasive and metastatic potential in interspecies T-cell hybrids is located on human chromosome 7. Apparently, genes derived from normal activated T-cells are dominantly expressed in the hybrids and control the invasive and, as a consequence, metastatic potential of these T-lymphoma cells. To sublocalize the invasion-inducing locus on chromosome 7 we have generated hybrids that harbor only specific regions of human chromosome 7 with or without a small fragment of human chromosome 21. Analysis of these hybrids revealed that the invasion-inducing locus maps to 7p12----cen. The human DNA complement of the hybrids was confirmed by Southern blot analysis using a large panel of chromosome 7-specific DNA probes. Several of these genes could be further sublocalized. These included: ARAF2 to 7p12----cen, D7S21 to 7pter----p12, ACTB to 7p15----p12, EGFR to 7p12, MDH2 to 7cen----q22, and PDGFA to 7pter----p15. 相似文献
