Associations of the three n degrees 18 chromosomes were studied in a trisomy 18 fetus (the chromosomal constitution of which had been identified by amniocentesis). The three classes of associations observed were those observed in other trisomic organisms:trivalent, trivalent presenting an important asynaptic region, and bivalent accompanied by a univalent. In addition, the sequence was established of chromomeres, the number of which varied from 18 to 23 depending on the degree of chromosome contraction. In elongated pachytene oocyte bivalents each G-band of mitotic metaphase chromosomes could be subdivided into several sub-bands. 相似文献

The whole-mount SC preparations from males of three species of the genus Ellobius (Ellobius fuscocapillus, Ellobius lutescens), and Ellobius tancrei
were studied by electron microscopy. In the males of Ellobius fuscocapillus, behavioral peculiarities of the sex bivalent (viz. the normal male heterozygosity) are characterized by early complete desynapsis of sex chromosomes (X, Y), occurring at late pachytene-early diplotene. The karyotype of species Ellobius lutescens is unique for mammals. In both sexes it is characterized by an odd number of chromosomes (2n=17). At prophase I the unpaired chromosome 9 is not involved in synapsis with other chromosomes and forms a sex body at the end of pachytene.The complete Robertsonian fan has been described for superspecies Ellobius tancrei. As shown on the basis of G-band patterns the male and female sex chromosomes are cytologically indistinguishable.Analysis of whole-mount SC preparations revealed the formation of a closed sex SC bivalent and showed some morphological differences in the axes of sex chromosomes at meiotic prophase I. A number of assumptions are made about the relationship between the behavior of sex chromosomes, their evolution and the sex determination system in the studied species of genus Ellobius.

Giemsa-11, G-banding and Lateral Asymmetry staining techniques were used to define the substructure of the C-band heterochromatin of human chromosome 9, in a sample of 108 different chromosomes 9, from 54 individuals. In this sample, the juxtacentromeric portion of the C-band region stained positive by the G-banding technique while Giemsa-11 delineated a more distally located block. Examination of the pericentric inversions generally revealed that the entire C-band region is changed with the substructural organization left intact; i.e. the G-band is proximal, the G-11 distal to the centromere. The partial pericentric inversions were found to have larger than average amounts of G-band heterochromatin on the short arm. The G-11 staining was in its usual position on the long arm with none on the short arm. Such apparent inversions therefore may not represent true inversions. — Long heterochromatic regions frequently had a segmented appearance when stained with G-11; there was a dark G-band within the pale heterochromatic region when stained with the G-banding technique which corresponded in location to the achromatic gap produced by G-11. This extra G-band may have been derived from the juxtacentromeric G-band by processes analogous to unequal crossing over. — Simple lateral asymmetry was consistently present only in the G-band heterochromatin of those chromosomes 9 containing large blocks of G-band positive material. Examination of the portion of the C-band which would correspond to the G-11 positive material revealed no consistent patterns of asymmetry. Usually both strands were heavily stained and symmetrical but occasionally there were light areas present on one strand suggestive of compound lateral asymmetry. 相似文献

Synaptonemal complex analysis by electron microscopy of a trisomy 28 in a male horse demonstrated a trivalent or a bivalent plus a univalent in primary spermatocytes. Two of the chromosomes making up the trivalent were, most often, completely paired with each other and only partially paired or associated with the third one. Half of the spermatocytes analysed demonstrated heterologous pairing or association between the free axis of the trivalent and the sex bivalent. The pairings remained, to a large extent, into diakinesis-metaphase I. In most pachytene cells one autosomal bivalent showed proximal asynapsis and paired often, heterologously, with the trivalent or the sex bivalent. The horse demonstrated azoospermy, which was due, at least in part, to degeneration at both the spermatocyte and spermatid levels. 相似文献

The ultrastructure of human mitotic chromosomes and interphase nuclei treated by Giemsa banding techniques 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Total preparations of mitotic chromosomes and interphase nuclei prepared as for Giemsa banding techniques were investigated by standard transmission electron microscopy and by a method of a three dimensional representation. Chromosomes as well as interphase nuclei appear to be composed of irregularely folded fibrils of at least 300 Å thickness. In the G-band regions the chromosomes are thicker containing more foldings of fibrils. Also the fibrils are darker stained in the G-band regions. Loops of fibrils stick out from chromosomes as well as from interphase nuclei. When chromosomes or interphase nuclei come to lie close enough, such loops may stick together and form fibrillar bridges between them. These as well as interchromatid bridges are considered to be artefacts. The fibrils seem to be built up either of one or of several finer fibrils. No further conclusions regarding the fine structure of the fibrils can be drawn. 相似文献

Summary Metaphase chromosomes of mouse strain L cells show strikingly uncondensed pericentric heterochromatic regions after treatment of living cells with the benzimidazol-derivate 33258 Hoechst. In electron micrographs of total preparations after G-band staining the chromosomes are seen to be made up of irregularly folded fibrils of 200–400 Å in diameter. In the uncondensed regions only very few fibrils laid in loose loops are present, making it probable that only one fibril forms one chromatid. 相似文献

Pretargeting with bivalent effectors capable of bridging antitumor antibodies has been reported to provide superior results by affinity enhancement. Morpholinos (MORFs) and other DNA analogues used for pretargeting are ideally suited as bivalent effectors since they are easily synthesized and the distance between binding regions, likely to be a determinant of binding, may be adjusted simply by lengthening the chain. The goal of this investigation was to synthesize a bivalent MORF and to determine by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) whether the bivalent MORF exhibited bimolecular binding and whether the MORFs showed improved in vitro hybridization affinity in its bivalent form compared to its monovalent form. An 18 mer amino-derivitized MORF was made bivalent by dimerizing with disuccinimidyl suberate (DSS) in 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP) with N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIEA) followed by purification by ion exchange chromatography. The in vitro hybridization affinity of bivalent compared to monovalent MORF was then measured by SPR. For these measurements, the complementary biotinylated cDNA was immobilized at coating densities that provided an average spacing of 20-100 angstroms and used to investigate the influence of this spacing on binding of the bivalent MORF with its binding regions separated by 25 A. The yield of bivalent MORF was as high as 45%, and the structure was confirmed by MALDI-TOF mass spectroscopy. When the sensograms obtained by SPR were analyzed using different binding models, the evidence was consistent with bimolecular binding of the bivalent MORF. The dissociation rate constant of the bivalent compared to monovalent MORF was more than 10-fold lower at 2.14 compared to 0.27 x 10(-5) (1/s) (p < 0.05), and since the association rate constants were similar at 8.53 and 5.64 x 10(5) (1/M.s) (p = 0.08), the equilibrium constant for hybridization to the immobilized cDNA of the bivalent compared to the monovalent MORF was almost 20-fold higher at 3.99 compared to 0.21 x 10(10) (1/M) (p < 0.05). In addition, qualitative evidence for bivalent binding of the bivalent MORF was apparent in the lower concentrations necessary to saturate the cDNA. Finally, the stoichiometry interpretation of the binding data provided estimates of the fraction of bivalent MORF binding bimolecularly. Under one set of conditions, this value was 20%. In conclusion, a bivalent MORF was easily synthesized by dimerization of a monovalent MORF. A lower dissociation rate constant and higher equilibrium constant was measured by SPR for the bivalent compared to monovalent MORF in their binding to an immobilized cDNA. These results show that bimolecular binding was occurring in the case of the bivalent MORF and suggest that bivalency may be superior to monovalency in MORF pretargeting applications. 相似文献

High resolution studies of structural rearrangements were carried out using the G-band technique. A total of 220 breakage points were identified within individual bands from 117 unrelated cases born with a structural rearrangement. Breakage points were not evenly distributed along chromosomes in terms of G-band patterns. There was an excess involvement of light bands and a striking lack of dark bands in both reciprocal translocations and inversions. In reciprocal translocations, the middle part of a chromosome arm has less chance of being the site of an exchange than the terminal and centromeric parts. The implications of these results are briefly discussed. 相似文献

OHNUKI's method for demonstrating coils in human metaphase chromosomes also reveals a fine G-band pattern on prophase chromosomes of sufficient clarity to justify an attempt at mapping. Maps are provided for each chromosome to show the maximum number of prophase bands observed, and an intermediate stage in chromosome contraction, tracing the pathways of apparent band fusion as the cell progresses to metaphase, is presented. The prophase bands on many chromosomes tend to occur in distinct groups, the members of which ultimately merge to give the dark G-bands of metaphase chromosomes. Every G-band of the standard metaphase chromosomes. Every G-band of the standard metaphase pattern is compounded from two or more prophase bands. In at least contracted prophase chromosomes examined, some bands are seen which have no obvious metaphase counterpart. There are marked similarities between banded prophases and the chromoomere pattern seen at meiotic prophase. However, since chromosome contraction is a dynamic process, agreement between maps will be expected only for corresponding degrees of chromosome contraction. 相似文献

Abstract.The rate of bivalent formation during meiosis was correlated with the presence and amount of spermatozoa in the testes of azoospermic men. Four pairs of chromosomes, X-Y, 9, 15, and 18, were evaluated. In addition, left and right testes were compared. Three biopsies from each testis were undertaken to extract spermatozoa for intracytoplasmic sperm injection. In addition, one sample from each testis was used for histological definition, spermatozoa count and detection of chromosome bivalents in spermatocytes. A significantly higher rate of bivalents of all homologous chromosomes was found whenever spermatozoa were detected. The rate of bivalent X-Y was found to be the most sensitive predictor for detection of spermatozoa, with a cut-off value of 47%. The R(2) was 27% ( P=0.003) for the percent of spermatozoa in the minced sample as well as the number of mature spermatids per tubule in the histological section. All pairs of testes were in concord in regard to the likelihood of finding spermatozoa. In the testes where no spermatozoa were found on biopsy, the rate of X-Y bivalent indicated the presence of spermatozoa in the opposite side. Thus, it may be concluded that the rate of X-Y bivalent formation in spermatocytes may predict the presence and amount of spermatozoa in the testicular tissue of azoospermic men. It is suggested that when no spermatozoa are located by testicular fine-needle aspiration, X-Y bivalent evaluation may be conducted if spermatocytes are evinced. A high rate of X-Y bivalents may impel one to continue with testicular open biopsies. 相似文献

The concept of genetic inactivity of G-band DNA had been reinvestigated using the modified approach of Korenberg et al (1978). Coefficients of correlation and partial correlation between the relative gene density (g'), the relative G-band material richness (kH/C) and the relative chromosome size (s') were calculated. The kH/C was calculated as the ratio of brightness of fluorescence of chromosomes stained by Hoechst 33258 (Hi) and by chromomycin A3(Ci). The kH/C is the characteristics of G-band chromosome richness, because G-bands become bright after Hoechst 33258 staining and R-bands are bright after chromomycin A3 staining, while no significant C-bands in chromosomes which may be stained by these fluorochromes are discovered. For the kH/C determination the flow cytometry data of Langlois et al (1982) were used. The relative size of chromosomes was determined, based on the flow cytometry data of Young et al (1979). According to Korenberg, the "gene density" (g') in a chromosome was calculated as a ratio of the number of genes located in the chromosome before 1984 (Human Gene Mapping 7) to the relative size of this chromosome. Correlation between the "gene density" and the G-band richness was rs = -0.65. Out of 107 genes located in either G- or R-bands (Human Gene Mapping 7), 90 were mapped in the R-band and only 17 were ascribed to the G-band in metaphase chromosomes. The data on gene replication time show that all genes of the general cell activity and a portion of tissue-specific genes replicate during the early S-phase, together with R-band materials. These three independent lines of evidence are consistent with the notion that the R-band DNA is more genetically active than G-band DNA. The nature of "junk" DNA of G-bands is discussed. 相似文献

In our efforts to further investigate the impact of the spacer and membrane anchor to the neuroprotective activities, a series of bivalent compounds that contain cholesterol and extended spacers were designed, synthesized and biologically characterized. Our results support previous studies that incorporation of a piperazine ring into the spacer significantly improved the protective potency of bivalent compounds in MC65 cell model. Spacer length beyond 21 atoms does not add further benefits with 21MO being the most potent one with an EC50 of 81.86 ± 11.91 nM. Our results also demonstrated that bivalent compound 21MO suppressed the production of mitochondria reactive oxygen species. Furthermore, our results confirmed that both of the spacer and membrane anchor moiety are essential to metal binding. Collectively, the results provide further evidence and information to guide optimization of such bivalent compounds as potential neuroprotectants for Alzheimer’s disease. 相似文献

The climbing rats (Tylomys spp.) have diploid numbers of 52 (T. panamensis), 42 (T. nudicaudus), 40 (T. n. gymnurus) and 36 (T. n. villai). Using G-band analysis we found that the variations are mainly of the Bobertsonian type, and practically all changes can be traced. G-banding also revealed that biarmed chromosomes with similar morphology may be composed of different components. Such conclusions were verified also by analysis of the chromosomes of interspecific hybrids. C-band staining showed that the constitutive heterochromatin of Tylomys is mainly located in the centromeric regions and the sex chromosomes, a situation similar to that of Microtus agrestis. In one specimen of T. panamensis, however, an additional terminal heterochromatic segment was found in one member of the large metacentric pair. Our data underline that in mammalian cytotaxonomy studies both C- and G-band (or C- and Q-band) techniques must be applied to gain maximal information. 相似文献

The bivalent ligand N,N'-bis[[epsilon-[(2,4- dinitrophenyl)amino]caproyl]-L-tyrosyl]cystine [(DCT)2-Cys] binds and cross-links anti-dinitrophenyl (DNP) immunoglobulin E (IgE)-receptor complexes on the cell surface of rat basophilic leukemia cells. The rate of dissociation of this bound ligand was monitored by using a fluorescence method under two different conditions. In one case the monovalent ligand DCT was added in large excess to prevent the dissociating ligand from rebinding to unoccupied antibody combining sites. Under these conditions, dissociation of the bivalent ligand from IgE-sensitized cells proceeds to completion with kinetics that are well described by two rate constants that are independent of the time of preincubation of the bivalent ligand with the cells. In the second case, dissociation of (DCT)2-Cys from cell-bound anti-DNP IgE was monitored in the presence of a large excess of anti-DNP IgE in solution that acts as a sink to absorb the dissociated ligand. Under these conditions, the bivalent ligand becomes more resistant to dissociation as the preincubation time of the bivalent ligand with the cells is increased. An increasing fraction of the bound ligand does not dissociate on a measurable time scale in the presence of this sink. The results indicate that cell-associated IgE-receptor complexes undergo a time-dependent change that facilitates the reformation of the cross-linked state when one end of the ligand dissociates to break up the existing cross-link. The possible physical basis and functional implications of these results are discussed. 相似文献

Modern antiretroviral therapies have provided HIV-1 infected patients longer lifespans and better quality of life. However, several neurological complications are now being seen in these patients due to HIV-1 associated injury of neurons by infected microglia and astrocytes. In addition, these effects can be further exacerbated with opiate use and abuse. One possible mechanism for such potentiation effects of opiates is the interaction of the mu opioid receptor (MOR) with the chemokine receptor CCR5 (CCR5), a known HIV-1 co-receptor, to form MOR–CCR5 heterodimer. In an attempt to understand this putative interaction and its relevance to neuroAIDS, we designed and synthesized a series of bivalent ligands targeting the putative CCR5–MOR heterodimer. To understand how these bivalent ligands may interact with the heterodimer, biological studies including calcium mobilization inhibition, binding affinity, HIV-1 invasion, and cell fusion assays were applied. In particular, HIV-1 infection assays using human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, macrophages, and astrocytes revealed a notable synergy in activity for one particular bivalent ligand. Further, a molecular model of the putative CCR5–MOR heterodimer was constructed, docked with the bivalent ligand, and molecular dynamics simulations of the complex was performed in a membrane-water system to help understand the biological observation. 相似文献

Careful analysis of G-band patterns in various rodent families allows identification of homology and thus accurate prediction of gene map positions. However, conclusions based on the synteny of genes without a careful study of chromosome evolution and G-band homology can be misleading. We tested these generalizations by means of G-band analysis and in situ hybridization with three genes in Chinese hamster (Cricetulus griseus, CGR) chromosomes. The location of the adenosine deaminase gene, previously mapped by somatic cell hybrid panels, was confirmed and further sublocalized on CGR 6q1. Although transferrin and uridine monophosphate synthetase are localized to adjacent bands on human chromosome 3 (3q21 and 3q13, respectively), we report that these genes are widely separated on CGR 4q2 and 4p2, respectively. 相似文献
