Tandem repeats within the inverted terminal repetition of vaccinia virus DNA   总被引:23,自引:0,他引:23  
R Wittek  B Moss 《Cell》1980,21(1):277-284
A tandemly repeated sequence within the genome of vaccinia virus is cut to fragments of approximately 70 bp by Hinf I, Taq I or Mbo II. The 70 bp repetition was localized within the much larger (10,300 bp) inverted terminal repetition by restriction analysis of cloned DNA fragments and by hybridization of the purified 70 bp repeat to vaccinia virus DNA restriction fragments. The molar abundance of the 70 bp fragment corresponds to a 30 fold repetition at each end of the genome. The repeating restriction endonuclease sites were mapped by agarose gel electrophoresis of partial Hinf I digests of the terminally labeled cloned DNA fragment. The first of 13 repetitive Hinf I sites occurred approximately 150 bp from the end of the cloned DNA. After an intervening sequence of approximately 435 bp, a second series of 17 repetitive Hinf I sites occurred. The DNA between the two blocks of repetitions has a unique sequence containing single Dde I, Alu I and Sau 3A sites. Tandem repeats within the inverted terminal repetition could serve to accelerate self-annealing of single strands of DNA to form circular structures during replication.  相似文献

The polymorphic exon 2-exon 3 region of bovine major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I genes was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from genomic DNA samples with characterized class I polymorphism. The primers for amplification were designed in conserved regions at the borders of exons 2 and 3, based on all available cDNA sequences. The primers should, therefore, amplify most expressed class I genes, but may also amplify non-expressed class I genes. The PCR amplified class I gene fragments of 700 bp were characterized on the basis of restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). The PCR-RFLP analysis of class I genes showed that the bands in each digestion could be classified as non-polymorphic, as shared between several bovine lymphocyte antigen (BoLA)-A types, or as specific to a single BoLA-A type. The same primers were then used for amplification of class I gene fragments from eight Sahiwal animals, a breed which originated in the Indian subcontinent. These studies showed that BoLA class I PCR-RFLP could be used to study class I polymorphism in family groups.  相似文献

Fine melting profiles of calf satellite I DNA and its fragments obtained after digestion with endoR.EcoRI and endoR.AluI nucleases were investigated. It is shown that the 1360 bp basic repeat unit of calf satellite I DNA contains an about 140 bp long GC rich nucleus. It is localized on the 600 bp restriction fragment obtained after digestion of 1360 bp fragment with endoR.AluI nuclease. The main part of satellite I DNA melts as loops between such GC rich nuclei which strongly influence the melting properties of this satellite. There exist significant differences between the thermal stabilities of fragments containing many nuclei, one nucleus and those in which such nucleus is absent.  相似文献

Nucleotide sequence of a highly repetitive component of rat DNA.   总被引:20,自引:13,他引:7       下载免费PDF全文
A highly repetitive component of rat DNA which could not yet be enriched by density gradient centrifugation was isolated with the help of the restriction nuclease Sau3AI. This nuclease converted the bulk of the DNA to small fragments and left a repetitive DNA component as large fragments which were subsequently purified by gel filtration and electrophoresis. This DNA component which was termed rat satellite DNA I is composed of tandemly repeated 370 bp blocks. According to sequence analysis the 370 bp repeats consist of alternating 92 and 93 bp units with homologous but not identical sequences. Methylation of CpG residues was correlated to the rate of cleavage by restriction nucleases. Significant homologies exist between the sequences of rat satellite DNA I and satellite DNAs of several other organisms. The divergence of the sequence of rat satellite DNA I was discussed with respect to evolutionary considerations.  相似文献

We developed a rapid mutagenesis method based on a modification of the QuikChange® system (Stratagene) to systemically replace endogenous gene sequences with a unique similar size sequence tag. The modifications are as follows: 1: the length of the anchoring homologous sequences of both mutagenesis primers were increased to 16 – 22 bp to achieve melting temperatures greater than 80°C. 2: the final concentrations of both primers were increased to 5–10 ng/µl and the final concentration of template to 1–2 ng/µl. 3: the annealing temperature was adjusted when necessary from 52°C to 58°C. We generated 25 sequential mutants in the cloned espD gene (1.2 kb), which encodes an essential component of the type III secretion translocon required for the pathogenesis of enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infection. Each mutation consisted of the replacement of 15 codons (45 bp) with 8 codons representing a 24 bp sequence containing three unique restriction endonuclease sites (KpnI/MfeI/SpeI) starting from the second codon. The insertion of the restriction endonuclease sites provides a convenient method for further insertions of purification and/or epitope tags into permissive domains. This method is rapid, site-directed and allows for the systematic creation of mutants evenly distributed throughout the entire gene of interest.  相似文献

The non-transcribed spacer regions in the ribosomal DNA cistrons of Calliphora erythrocephala vary in length. This length variation is shown to be due to variable numbers of small repeated units found in certain areas of the NTS2 regions, as has been found in several other systems. In contrast to the other organisms, however, the length variation in C. erythrocephala leads to the formation of only two major size classes with a length difference of about 1 kb. We have investigated the nature of this length difference by means of electron microscope heteroduplex and restriction enzyme digestion analyses. We demonstrate that the length variation in C. erythrocephala is due to a variation in the number of 350 bp repeating units defined by the presence of sites for three restriction enzymes, HhaI, Sau3A and AluI. Furthermore, the existence of an XbaI site within one 350 bp unit and the lack of a HhaI restriction site within another 350 bp unit reveals that at least some sequence differences exist among the repeating units. These restriction site differences can be viewed as genetic markers and lead to the hypothesis that the longer NTS class originated from the shorter NTS class by an unequal crossover event that served to duplicate the region containing repetitive units. An interesting feature of our observation is that not all NTS length classes are equally represented, suggesting special rules for the unequal recombination events often hypothesized as the basis for such variation.  相似文献

Altogether, 100 strains of Listeria monocytogenes serovar 1/2a isolated from humans, animals, food, and the environment were typed by a combination of PCR and restriction enzyme analysis (REA). A PCR product of 2,916 bp, containing the downstream end of the gene inlA (955 bp), the space between inlA and inlB (85 bp), and 1,876 bp of the gene inlB, was cleaved with the enzyme AluI, and the fragments generated were separated by gel electrophoresis. By this method two different cleavage patterns were obtained. Seventy of the 100 strains shared one restriction profile, and the remaining 30 strains shared the second one. No relation was found between the types differentiated by PCR-REA and the origins of the strains.  相似文献

Acephala applanata gen. et sp. nov. is described. A. applanata is a dark-septate endophyte (DSE) of conifer roots and belongs to the Phialocephala fortinii species complex. Several genetic markers, including isozymes, inter-simple-sequence-repeat (ISSR) fingerprints, single-copy restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) and sequences of the internal transcribed spacers (ITS), let us unambiguously separate isolates of A. applanata from isolates of P. fortinii s.l. and other dark-septate endophytes. Alleles at four RFLP loci and two fixed nucleotides in the ITS region were diagnostic for A. applanata. One of the fixed nucleotides resulted in the addition of an Afa I restriction site. PCR amplification with primers prITS4 and the newly developed primer PF-ITS_F (ACT CTG AAT GTT AGT GAT GTC TGA GT) and restriction digestion with Afa I yielded three fragments (203 bp, 117 bp, 56 bp) in A. applanata but only two (260 bp and 117 bp) in P. fortinii s.l. Population differentiation (GST) between A. applanata and other cryptic species of P fortinii was pronounced, and the index of association (IA) did not deviate significantly from zero, showing that recombination occurs or had occurred in A. applanata. Although isolates of A. applanata never were observed to sporulate, it can be distinguished morphologically from P fortinii s.l. by the scarcity of aerial mycelium, significantly slower growth and denser mycelium on cellophane overlaid on water agar. These phenotypic characteristics, combined with diagnostic RFLP alleles and/or PCR-RFLP of the ITS fragment with the fixed Afa I restriction site, unequivocally allow identification of A. applanata.  相似文献

Application of AFLP markers to genome mapping in poultry   总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20  
The amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique has been used to enhance marker density in the East Lansing reference chicken genome map, using a backcross family derived from a Red Jungle Fowl by White Leghorn mating with White Leghorn as the recurrent parent. To date, 204 AFLP markers have been added, expanding overall map coverage by about 25%. To the limits of our resolution, AFLP markers are distributed relatively evenly across the EL reference map. AFLP are about 60% as frequent in a cross within White Leghorns (line 7(2) x 6(3)) in comparison to the more divergent reference map population. Based on apparent identity of size, about 40% of the 7(2) x 6(3) cross AFLP fragments were also polymorphic in the reference map cross. Primer pairs in which one primer contains 3' extensions of three selective nucleotides and the other has two selective nucleotides successfully generated AFLP from chicken DNA, but such pairs appeared to amplify only a subset of those fragments to which they have an exact sequence match. Three different restriction enzymes with 4 bp recognition sites (TaqI, HinP1I and MspI) were found to work well with EcoRI as the rarer of the two AFLP restriction enzymes used, with HinP1I being the most effective of the three. AFLP markers are likely to provide an economical method with which to enhance framework linkage maps of chicken and probably other avian genomes.  相似文献

Abstract A combined polymerase chain reaction and restriction endonuclease (RE) enzyme assay was developed to discriminate between Campylobacter coli and Campylobacter jejuni . Amplimers of the FlaA gene obtained by PCR were digested with Alu I and Hin fI to distinguish C. coli from C. jejuni . With Alu I digestion C. jejuni -specific bands were observed at 110, 140 and 160 bp and C. coli -specific bands at 293 and 147 bp. C. jejuni -specific bands of 349 and 109 bp were found by Hin fI digestion but Hin fI did not digest the Fla A amplimer of C. coli . This combined technique is fast and easy to perform, and distinguishes the two campylobacters unequivocally.  相似文献

Two new thermophilic type II restriction endonucleases, which we designated as Bsu2413I and Bfi2411I, have been isolated from gram-positive thermophilic bacteria Bacillus subtilis strain 2413 and Bacillus firmus strain 2411 respectively and partially purified. The restriction endonucleases were extracted from cell extracts and purified using single step purification through phosphocellulose column chromatography. SDS-PAGE profile showed denatured molecular weights of 33 and 67 kDa for the Bsu2413I and 39 and 67 kDa for the Bfi2411I. The partially purified Bsu2413I enzyme restricted pBR322 DNA into two fragments of 3250 and 1100 bp whereas Bfi2411I enzyme restricted pBR322 DNA into two fragments of 3500 and 800 bp. The activity of both endonucleases was assayed at 55 degrees C and they required Mg+2 as cofactor like other type II restriction endonucleases.  相似文献

The cDNA clones of two newly discovered genes in the class III region of the human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) were hybridized to chicken DNA. One of these cDNA clones (pG9a-4C7), which detects the single-copy human G9a (BAT8) gene, gave a repeatable restriction pattern. This heterologous cDNA clone was used to detect and map three different Pst I restriction fragment length polymorphisms among the two internationally recognized chicken reference populations. Two of the loci were unlinked to previously mapped markers, but one polymorphism cosegregated with the EaB locus in the Compton mapping population. These results provide evidence that some genes of the mammalian class III region, such as G9a, may be linked to the MHC in chickens.  相似文献

Nontranscribed spacers (NTS) of 5S rDNA are often polymorphic in closely related species and even in the same genome. The polymorphism of 5S rDNA NTS was shown between genomes St, J, and V of Triticeae species Thinopyrum bessarabicum, Pseudoroegneria spicata, and Dasypyrum villosum, respectively. A molecular genetic marker was designed based on the 5S rDNA NTS polymorphism that allows identification of the St, J, and V genomes. We designed a pair of primers that correspond to the conserved regions of 5S rDNA NTS between the genomes studied. The PCR amplicon length is 158 bp, 171 bp, and 172 bp for V, St, and J genomes, respectively. The fragment of the St genome is characterized by the SmiM I restriction site that enables its differentiation from the J genome fragment that lacks this site. The developed marker showed its efficiency for verification of germplasm accessions and the study of allopolyploids.  相似文献

Class I genes of the bovine major histocompatibility complex (MHC) were investigated by Southern blot hybridization and by serological analysis. A large number of class I restriction fragments and an extensive polymorphism were revealed when genomic DNA samples, digested with the restriction enzyme PvuII, were hybridized with a human cDNA probe. The result indicated the presence of multiple class I genes in cattle. The extensive restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) was interpreted genetically by analysing five paternal half-sib families comprising, besides the bulls, 50 offspring and their dams. No less than 21 RFLP types were distinguished in this limited sample. The class I polymorphism was also analysed using a serological test with sera corresponding to four workshop specificities (w2, w6, w10 and w16) and three locally defined specificities (SRB1, SRB2 and SRB3). There was an excellent agreement between the two typing methods since no RFLP type was associated with more than one specificity and five of the seven specificities were associated with a single RFLP type. Evidence for close genetic linkage between class I and DQ class II genes was obtained since no recombinant was found among 45 informative offspring. Linkage disequilibrium among class I, DQ class II and C4 genes was also observed. The blood group specificity M' was completely associated with the w16 class I specificity and with the haplotype I1DQ1BC4(2) in this material.  相似文献

Summary A method has been developed which allows the isolation of very high molecular weight DNA (>2 million bp) from leaf protoplasts of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum). The DNA isolated in this manner was digested in agarose with rare-cutting restriction enzymes and separated by pulsed field gel electrophoresis. The size range of the reslting fragments was determined by hybridization to a number of single copy clones and the suitability of these enzymes for the mapping of large DNA fragments was evaluated. Furthermore, five genetically tightly linked single copy clones have been used to begin the construction of a physical map in a region of the genome containing the Tm-2a gene which confers resistance to tobacco mosaic virus. Two of the five clones were found to be on the same 560 kb SalI fragment and therefore are no further apart than that distance. The remaining three markers are distributed over at least 3 million bp, so that the total minimum physical distance of that cluster is at least 4 million bp. The results are discussed with respect to correlations between recombination frequencies and physical distance as well as physical mapping large regions of a complex plant genome like tomato.  相似文献

The development of new starter culture of Lactococcus lactis for the manufacture of fermented dairy products with unique characteristics usually requires the isolation and identification of L. lactis up to subspecies level. Therefore, a rapid and specific PCR-RFLP assay has been developed. Forward and reverse primer sets were designed targeting the conserved house keeping gene htrA and yueF encoding a trypsin-like serine protease and a non-proteolytic protein from peptidase family M16, respectively, of L. lactis. Amplicons of 265 bp and 447 bp of htrA and yueF, respectively, were subjected to restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Restriction of the 265 bp amplicons with TaqI produced DNA bands of 90 bp and 175 bp with ssp. lactis, and 66 bp and 199 bp with ssp. cremoris. Similarly, restriction of PCR product of 447 bp size with AluI produced digested fragments of 125 bp and 322 bp with ssp. lactis, and 71 bp and 376 bp with ssp. cremoris. The designed primer sets were observed to be specific to L. lactis because other bacteria could not be amplified. The ssp. lactis and cremoris of L. lactis could be identified by restriction of PCR products of htrA and yueF with TaqI and AluI, respectively.  相似文献

Identification of S-genotypes by PCR-RFLP in breeding lines of Brassica.   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
We developed a molecular method for the identification of the S-alleles of Brassicaceae, which belongs to the inbred line. This method is quicker and more precise than the existing methods. The genotype of the S-allele for 20 S-haplotypes of cabbage and 20 S-haplotypes of broccoli was determined by a pollination test. In order to identify the S-alleles, we performed PCR-RFLP with a mixture of the primers that are related to the S-locus glycoprotein (SLG) gene, which corresponds to the results of the pollination test. The selected primers amplified all of the single bands of about 1,150 bp in all 40 lines of cabbage and broccoli. Three out of 20 lines of cabbage were amplified by class I SLG specific primers, whereas all of the lines of the cabbage were amplified by class II SLG specific primers. Therefore, we could not classify class I and class II precisely by the class I and class II primers. However, 15 out of 20 lines of broccoli were amplified by the class I SLG specific primers. The remaining 5 lines were amplified with the class II SLG specific primers. We then digested the amplified PCR products with various restriction endonucleases and chose a restriction endonuclease, which accords exactly with the results of the diallel cross. The best one was HinfI. Its RFLP result was the same as that of the nucleotide sequence analysis. The 40 lines of cabbage and broccoli consisted of 16 different S-haplotypes. Therefore, the PCR-RFLP analysis was quicker and more precise in identifying the characteristics of S-haplotypes that are used in breeding. Also, we were able to check whether the lines could be mixed. The S-genotypes were difficult to determine due to the different flowering time.  相似文献
