We have mapped the genes for the human and mouse L-isoaspartyl/D-aspartyl protein carboxyl methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.77) using cDNA probes. We determined that the human gene is present in chromosome 6 by Southern blot analysis of DNA from a panel of mouse-human somatic cell hybrids. In situ hybridization studies allowed us to confirm this identification and further localize the human gene (PCMT1) to the 6q22.3-6q24 region. By analyzing the presence of an EcoRI polymorphism in DNA from backcrosses of C57BL/6J and Mus spretus strains of mice, we localized the mouse gene (Pcmt-1) to chromosome 10, at a position 8.2 +/- 3.5 cM proximal to the Myb locus. This region of the mouse chromosome is homologous to the human 6q24 region.  相似文献

Comparative mapping of human and mouse DNA for regions of genetic homology between human Chromosome 21 and the mouse genome is of interest because of the possibility of developing mouse models of human trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), understanding chromosome evolution, and isolating novel sequences conserved between the two species. At least two mouse chromosomes are known to carry sequences homologous to those on human Chromosome 21: mouse Chromosome 16 (D21S16h, D21S13h, D21S52h, App, Sod-1, Mx-1, Ets-2, Prgs,Ifnar) and mouse Chromosome 17 (D21S56h, Crya-1, and Cbs). Recently, five additional genes have been mapped within region 21q22 of human Chromosome 21:PFKL, CD18, COL6A1, COL6A2, and S100B. To assign these sequences to specific mouse chromosomes, we used human cDNA probes for COL6A1, COL6A2, CD18, and PFKL and a rat brain cDNA probe for S100B in conjunction with a panel of seven Chinese hamster-mouse somatic cell hybrids segregating mouse chromosomes. The specific chromosome complements of the hybrid cell lines and the presence or absence of hybridizing mouse sequences in their DNAs allow us to assign all five sequences to mouse Chromosome 10, with the assignment of Pfkl reported here for the first time. Analysis of genomic mouse DNA fragments produced by digestion with rare-cutting restriction enzymes and separated using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis allows us to construct a fine-structure physical map of two segments of the region of Chromosome 10 containing these five markers. The five loci span at least 1900 kb of mouse DNA and are consistent with the human order: Pfkl-Cd-18-Col6a-1-Col6a-2-S100b.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The CEBPA gene encoding CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP alpha) has been mapped to human chromosome 19 and the CEBPB (formerly TCF5) gene encoding NF-IL6 (C/EBP beta) to human chromosome 20 by Southern blot analysis of Chinese hamster x human and mouse x human somatic cell hybrids. CEBPA has been further mapped to 19q13.1 between the loci GPI and TGFB using human x hamster somatic cell hybrids containing restricted fragments of human chromosome 19. This position was confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization. Furthermore, CEBPB has been mapped to 20q13.1 by fluorescence in situ hybridization.  相似文献

LEF-1 is a 54-kDa nuclear protein that is expressed specifically in pre-B and T-cells. It binds to a functionally important site in the T-cell receptor alpha enhancer and contributes to maximal enhancer activity. LEF-1 is a member of a family of regulatory proteins that share homology with the high mobility group protein 1 (HMG1). The location of the LEF1 gene on human and mouse chromosomes was determined by Southern blot analysis of DNA from panels of interspecies somatic cell hybrids using a murine cDNA probe. Human-specific DNA fragments were detected in all somatic cell hybrids that retained the human chromosomal region 4cen-q31.2. Fluorescent in situ hybridization with two biotin-labeled overlapping human genomic cosmids revealed a specific hybridization signal at 4q23-q25. The homologous locus in the mouse was mapped to chromosome 3 by Southern analysis of rodent x mouse hybrid cell DNA. This chromosomal location was confirmed by the use of a restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) in recombinant inbred mouse strains. The results of this RFLP analysis indicated that the mouse Lef-1 gene was closely linked to Pmv-39 and Egf and was likely placed between these loci, both of which were previously mapped to distal mouse chromosome 3. Our mapping results did not suggest involvement of this gene in previously mapped genetic disorders or in known neoplasia-associated translocation breakpoints.  相似文献

A cDNA encoding the human GABAA receptor beta 3 subunit has been isolated from a brain cDNA library and its nucleotide sequence has been determined. This gene, GABRB3, has recently been mapped to human chromosome 15q11q13, the region deleted in Angelman and Prader-Willi syndromes. The association of distinct phenotypes with maternal versus paternal deletions of this region suggests that one or more genes in this region show parental-origin-dependent expression (genetic imprinting). Comparison of the inferred human beta 3 subunit amino acid sequence with beta 3 subunit sequences from rat, cow, and chicken shows a very high degree of evolutionary conservation. We have used this cDNA to map the mouse beta 3 subunit gene, Gabrb-3, in recombinant inbred strains. The gene is located on mouse chromosome 7, very closely linked to Xmv-33 between Tam-1 and Mtv-1, where two other genes from human 15q11q13 have also been mapped. This provides further evidence for a region of conserved synteny between human chromosome 15q11q13 and mouse chromosome 7. Proximal and distal regions of mouse chromosome 7 show genetic imprinting effects; however, the region of homology with human chromosome 15q11q13 has not yet been associated with these effects.  相似文献

The serum protein cystic fibrosis-associated antigen (CFAG), present at elevated levels in CF homozygotes and heterozygotes, is now known to consist of two distinct but related subunits (calgranulins A (CAGA) and B (CAGB)). Both show similarity to the S100-related calcium-binding proteins. We have previously assigned CAGA to human chromosome 1q12-q21 and demonstrate here that the cDNA probe for CAGB cosegregates with it in our somatic cell hybrid panel. cDNA probes for the related genes calcyclin (CACY) and a mouse placental protein (18A2, suggested name Capl) enabled us to confirm and refine the in situ hybridization result assigning CACY to chromosome 1q21-25 and to demonstrate that both genes cosegregate with CAGA and CAGB. Capl was mapped to a region of chromosome 3 in the mouse using the BXD recombinant inbred strain mice where the p11 protein (calpactin light chain Cal1l), another S100 family member, has been localized. Cacy is shown to be within 8 kb of Capl in the mouse genome.  相似文献

S100 proteins are low-molecular-weight calcium-binding proteins of the EF-hand superfamily and appear to be involved in the regulation of a number of cellular processes such as cell cycle progression and differentiation. More than 10 members of the S100 protein family have been described from human sources so far. We have now isolated a YAC clone from human chromosome 1q21, on which 9 different genes coding for S100 calcium-binding proteins could be localized. Moreover, we have mapped the gene coding for S100P to human chromosome 4p16 and thereby completed the chromosomal assignments of all known human S100 genes. The clustered organization of S100 genes in the 1q21 region allows us to introduce a new logical nomenclature for these genes, which is based on the physical arrangement on the chromosome. The new nomenclature should facilitate and further the understanding of this protein family and be easily expandable to other species.  相似文献

We have mapped the gene encoding the murine RYK growth factor receptor protein tyrosine kinase by genetic linkage analysis with recombinant inbred strains of mouse. Two distinct Ryk loci (Ryk-1 and Ryk-2) were identified. Ryk-1 mapped to Chromosome (Chr) 9, whereas Ryk-2 mapped to Chr 12. A similar arrangement of RYK-related loci was previously determined in the human. Synteny has already been established between murine Chr 9 in the region of Ryk-1, and human chromosome 3q11–12, the location of the human RYK-1 gene. However, the Ryk-2/RYK-2 loci on murine Chr 12 and human chr 17p13.3 define a new region of synteny.  相似文献

Eight new loci have been assigned to sheep Chromosome (Chr) 1q by use of a chromosomally characterized minipanel of sheep x hamster cell hybrids. Four loci, which have been mapped to the distal region of human Chr 3q, are ceruloplasmin (CP), sucrase isomaltase (SI), glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2), and ectopic viral integration site 1 (EVI1). The other four loci, on human Chr 21, include interferon alpha receptor (IFNAR); interferon inducible protein p78, murine (MX1); collagen type VI, alpha 1 (COL6A1); and S100 protein, beta polypeptide (S100B). All of these loci, except GLUT2 and MX1, have been mapped onto bovine Chr 1 or are syntenic with loci on this chromosome. The in situ localization of transferrin (TF) to sheep Chr 1q42-q45 confirms our previous assignment of this locus and independently anchors the eight new syntenic loci to sheep Chr 1q.  相似文献

The large family of signal transducing proteins known as G proteins are heterotrimers that dissociate into an independent alpha-subunit and beta gamma-subunit complex after ligand binding or other stimulation. For G alpha, at least 30 distinct sequences representing 10 different classes have been identified. On the other hand, cDNAs for only three G beta-subunit genes have been isolated so far. All three of the G beta genes have been chromosomally mapped in the human, but only two in the mouse. Using a human retinal cDNA for the third G protein beta-subunit, we have mapped the corresponding gene, termed Gnb-3, to mouse Chromosome 6 with somatic cell hybrids and have positioned it distal to but near the marker Raf-1 by analysis of the progeny of three genetic crosses.  相似文献

The human homologs of the mouse homeo box-containing genes, En-1 and En-2, which show homology to the Drosophila engrailed gene, have been isolated. The human EN1 gene was mapped to chromosome 2 by analysis of mouse-human somatic cell hybrids. The human EN2 gene was localized to chromosome 7, 7q32-7qter, by analysis of rodent-human somatic cell hybrids and cell lines carrying portions of chromosome 7.  相似文献

Conserved linkage groups have been found on the X and autosomal chromosomes in several mammalian species. The identification of conserved chromosomal regions has potential for predicting gene location in mammals, particularly in humans. The genes for human aminoacylase-1 (ACY1, N-acylamino acid aminohydrolase, E.C.3.5.1.14), an enzyme in amino acid metabolism, and beta-galactosidase-A (GLB1, E.C.3.2.1.23), deficient in GM1-gangliosidosis, have been assigned to human chromosome 3. Using human-mouse somatic cell hybrids segregating translocations of human chromosome 3, expression of both ACY1 and GLB1 correlated with the presence of the p21 leads to q21 region of chromosome 3. In a previous study, assignment of these genes to mouse chromosome 9 used mouse-Chinese hamster somatic cell hybrids, eliminating mouse chromosomes. To approximate the size of the conserved region in the mouse, experiments were performed with recombinant inbred mouse strains. An electrophoretic variant of ACY-1 in mouse strains was used to map the Acy-1 gene 10.7 map U from the beta-galactosidase locus. These data suggest that there is a region of homology within the p21 leads to q21 region of human chromosome 3 and a segment of mouse chromosome 9. Since the mouse transferrin gene (Trf) is closely linked to the aminoacylase and beta-galactosidase loci, we predict that the human transferrin (TF) gene is on chromosome 3.  相似文献

The serine- and arginine-rich (SR) splicing factors play an important role in both constitutive and alternative pre-mRNA splicing, and the functions of these splicing factors are regulated by phosphorylation. We have previously characterized SRPK1 (SFRSK1) and SRPK2 (SFRSK2), which are highly specific protein kinases for the SR family of splicing factors. Here we report the chromosomal localization of the mouse and human genes for both kinases. SRPK1 probes detected two loci that were mapped to mouse Chromosomes 17 and X using The Jackson Laboratory interspecific backcross DNA panel, and SRPK2 probes identified a single locus on mouse Chromosome 5. Using a somatic cell hybrid mapping panel and by fluorescence in situ hybridization, SRPK1 and SRPK2 were respectively mapped to human chromosomes 6p21.2-p21.3 (a region of conserved synteny to mouse Chromosome 17) and 7q22-q31.1 (a region of conserved synteny to mouse Chromosome 5). In addition, we also found multiple SRPK-related sequences on other human chromosomes, one of which appears to correspond to a SRPK2 pseudogene on human chromosome 8.  相似文献

Characterization and mapping of the human SOX4 gene   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
The SOX genes comprise a large family related by homology to the HMG-box region of the testis-determining gene SRY. We have cloned and sequenced the human SOX4 gene. The open reading frame encodes a 474 amino acid protein, which includes an HMG-box. The non-box sequence is particularly rich in serine residues and has several polyglycine and polyalanine stretches. With somatic cell hybrids, human SOX4 has been mapped to Chromosome (Chr) 6p distal to the MHC region. There is no evidence for clustering of other members of the SOX1,-2, and-3 or SOX4 gene families around the SOX4 locus.  相似文献

Retrovirus receptors remain a largely unexplored group of proteins. Of the receptors which allow infection of human and murine cells by various retroviruses, only three have been identified at the molecular level. These receptors include CD4 for human immunodeficiency virus, Rec-1 for murine ecotropic virus, and GLVR1 for gibbon ape leukemia virus. These three proteins show no homology to one another at the DNA or protein level. Therefore, work to date has not shown any general relationship or structural theme shared by retroviral receptors. Genes for two of these receptors (CD4 and Rec-1) and several others which have not yet been cloned have been localized to specific chromosomes. In order to assess the relationship between GLVR1 and other retroviral receptors, we mapped the chromosome location of GLVR1 in human and mouse. GLVR1 was found to map to human chromosome 2q11-q14 by in situ hybridization and somatic-cell hybrid analysis. This location is distinct from those known for receptors for retroviruses infecting human cells. Glvr-1 was then mapped in the mouse by interspecies backcrosses and found to map to chromosome 2 in a region of linkage conservation with human chromosome 2. This mouse chromosome carries Rec-2, the likely receptor for M813, a retrovirus derived from a feral Asian mouse. These data raise the interesting possibility that Rec-2 and Glvr-1 are structurally related.  相似文献

The large family of signal transducing proteins known as G proteins are heterotrimers that dissociate into an independent α-subunit and βγ-subunit complex after ligand binding or other stimulation. For Gα, at least 30 distinct sequences representing 10 different classes have been identified. On the other hand, cDNAs for only three Gβ-subunit genes have been isolated so far. All three of the Gβ genes have been chromosomally mapped in the human, but only two in the mouse. Using a human retinal cDNA for the third G protein β-subunit, we have mapped the corresponding gene, termed Gnb-3, to mouse Chromosome 6 with somatic cell hybrids and have positioned it distal to but near the marker Raf-1 by analysis of the progeny of three genetic crosses.  相似文献

We have mapped the thrombospondin gene (THBS1) to a single locus on human chromosome 15 (band q15) and on mouse chromosome 2 (region F). Thrombospondin has been implicated in a variety of cell-matrix and cell-cell interactions. The finding of a single locus suggests that the different functions of thrombospondin are not due to a closely related family of genes. These results also confirm a region of homology between the proximal part of human chromosome 15 and region F of mouse chromosome 2.  相似文献

The chicken natural resistance-associated macrophage protein 1 (NRAMP1) gene has been mapped by linkage analysis by use of a reference panel to develop the chicken molecular genetic linkage map and by fluorescence in situ hybridization. The chicken homolog of the murine Nramp1 gene was mapped to a linkage group located on Chromosome (Chr) 7q13, which includes three genes (CD28, NDUSF1, and EF1B) that have previously been mapped either to mouse Chr 1 or to human Chr 2q. Physical mapping by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis revealed that NRAMP1 is tightly linked to the villin gene and that the genomic organization (gene order and presence of CpG islands) of the chromosomal region carrying NRAMP1 is well conserved between the chicken and mammalian genomes. The regions on mouse Chr 1, human Chr 2q, and chicken Chr 7q that encompass NRAMP1 represent large conserved chromosomal segments between the mammalian and avian genomes. The chromosome mapping of the chicken NRAMP1 gene is a first step in determining its possible role in differential susceptibility to salmonellosis in this species.  相似文献
