We present the first restriction map of the Brucella melitensis 16 M chromosome obtained by Southern blot hybridization of SpeI, XhoI, and XbaI fragments separated by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. All restriction fragments (a total of 113) were mapped into an open circle. The main difficulty in mapping involved the exceedingly high number of restriction fragments, as was expected considering the 59% G + C content of the Brucella genome. Several cloned genes were placed on this map, especially rRNA operons which are repeated three times. The size of the B. melitensis chromosome, estimated as 2,600 kb long in a previous study, appeared longer (3,130 kb) by restriction mapping. This restriction map is an initial approach to achieve a genetic map of the Brucella chromosome. 相似文献

Summary
EcoRI fragments of the 94 kilobase mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from young, wild type Podospora anserina were cloned into the EcoRI site of the E. coli plasmid vector pBR325. A complete EcoRI clone bank was developed, containing all 16 of the EcoRI fragments from the native mtDNA. Restriction endonuclease maps for the enzymes SalI, XhoI, BamHI, EcoRI, BglII, and HaeIII were constructed from the analysis of single, double, and triple restriction digests of cloned and native mtDNA. In constructing the maps data were refined by extensive Southern analysis of the native genome hybridized to cloned DNA probes. Restriction maps were analyzed and permitted us to locate the origin of mtDNA derived from senescent cultures.Both the large and small rRNA genes were then localized on these restriction maps using Southern and Northern blot analysis. We have shown the large rRNA locus to lie within a 10.8 kb region of EcoRI fragments E5 and E7, and the small rRNA locus to lie on a 5 kb subfragment of EcoRI fragment E1. The limit of separation between these two loci was determined to be between 6 and 9 kb.Surprisingly, when electrophoresed in agarose-CH3HgOH gels, the large rRNA was found to be 3.8 kb long, 500 bases longer than that from the very closely related Neurospora crassa, making it the largest rRNA yet described. 相似文献

Two BamHl fragments containing broad bean chloroplast rRNA genes were cloned using the bacterial plasmid pBR322 as a vector and Escherichia coli HB101 as host bacterial. Physical maps of the two cloned ct DNA BamHI fragments containing rRNA genes were constructed by cleavage with several restriction endonucleases and Southern blot hybridization with E. coli 16S-23S rRNAs. Recombinant plasmids pVFBI6 and pVFB32 contain a 16S rRNA sequence on the 4.70 kb BamHl fragment, a 23S rRNA sequence and 4.5S/5S rRNA sequences on the 5.65 kb BamHl fragment, respectively. 相似文献

A physical map is presented for the 900 kilobase pair genome of Ureaplasma urealyticum 960T, locating 29 sites for 6 restriction endonucleases. The large restriction fragments were separated and sized by pulsed-field agarose gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Their locations on the map were determined by probing Southern blots of digests with individual fragments isolated from other digests and by correlating the products of double digestions and partial digestions. An end-labelling technique was used to detect small fragments not readily observed by PFGE. Two loci for rRNA genes have been determined by probing with cloned DNA. 相似文献

We report a general method for the detection of restriction fragment length alterations associated with mutations or polymorphisms using whole genomic DNA rather than specific cloned DNA probes. We utilized a modified Southern Cross hybridization to display the hybridization pattern of all size-separated restriction fragments from wild-type Caenorhabditis elegans to all the corresponding fragments in a particular mutant strain and in a distinct C. elegans variety. In this analysis, almost all homologous restriction fragments are the same size in both strains and result in an intense diagonal of hybridization, whereas homologous fragments that differ in size between the two strains generate an off-diagonal spot. To attenuate the contribution of repeated sequences in the genome to spurious off-diagonal spots, restriction fragments from each genome were partially resected with a 3' or 5' exonuclease and not denatured, so that only the DNA sequences at the ends of these fragments could hybridize. Off-diagonal hybridization spots were detected at the expected locations when genomic DNA from wild-type was compared to an unc-54 mutant strain containing a 1.5 kb deletion or to a C. elegans variety that contains dispersed transposon insertions. We suggest that this modified Southern Cross hybridization technique could be used to identify restriction fragment length alterations associated with mutations or genome rearrangements in organisms with DNA complexities as large as 10(8) base pairs and, using rare-cutting enzymes and pulse-field gel electrophoresis, perhaps as large as mammalian genomes. This information could be used to clone fragments associated with such DNA alterations. 相似文献

A physical map of the Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum Marburg chromosome was constructed by using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of restriction fragments generated by NotI, PmeI, and NheI. The order of the fragments was deduced from Southern blot hybridization of NotI fragment probes to various restriction digests and from partial digests. The derived map is circular, and the genome size was estimated to be 1,623 kb. Several cloned genes were hybridized to restriction fragments to locate their positions on the map. Genes coding for proteins involved in the methanogenic pathway were located on the same segment of the circular chromosome. In addition, the genomes of a variety of thermophilic Methanobacterium strains were treated with restriction enzymes and analyzed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. The sums of the fragment sizes varied from 1,600 to 1,728 kb among the strains, and widely different macrorestriction patterns were observed. 相似文献

Summary A detailed map of the 32 kb mitochondrial genome of Aspergillus nidulans has been obtained by locating the cleavage sites for restriction endonucleases Pst I, Bam H I, Hha I, Pvu II, Hpa II and Hae III relative to the previously determined sites for Eco R I, Hind II and Hind III. The genes for the small and large ribosomal subunit RNAs were mapped by gel transfer hybridization of in vitro labelled rRNA to restriction fragments of mitochondrial DNA and its cloned Eco R I fragment E3, and by electron microscopy of RNA/DNA hybrids.The gene for the large rRNA (2.9 kb) is interrupted by a 1.8 kb insert, and the main segment of this gene (2.4 kb) is separated from the small rRNA gene (1.4 kb) by a spacer sequence of 2.8 kb length.This rRNA gene organization is very similar to that of the two-times larger mitochondrial genome of Neurospora crassa, except that in A. nidulans the spacer and intervening sequences are considerably shorter. 相似文献

Isolation and characterization of rat ribosomal DNA clones 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Four EcoRI fragments, which contain the transcribed portion of the rat rDNA repeat, have been isolated from a rat genome library cloned in lambda Charon 4A vector. Three of the fragments, 9.6, 6.7, and 4.5 kb, from clones lambda ChR-B4, lambda Nr-42, and lambda ChR-C4B9, contained part of the 5'-NTS, the 5'-ETS, 18S rDNA, ITS-1, 5.8S rDNA, 28S rDNA and approximately 3.5 kb of the 3'-NTS. Two EcoRI fragments, from clones lambda ChR-B4 and lambda ChR-B7E12, which coded for the 5'-NTS, the ETS, and most of the 18S rDNA, differed by 1 kb near the EcoRI site upstream of the 5' terminus of 18S rRNA. Restriction maps of the cloned DNA fragments were constructed by cleavage of the fragments with various restriction endonucleases and Southern hybridization with 18S, 5.8S, and 28S rRNA. These maps were confirmed and extended by subcloning several regions of the repeat in pBR322. 相似文献

Mapping the restriction fragments of the Brucella melitensis 16M genome with a new restriction endonuclease, PacI, which cut the DNA into only eight fragments, indicated that this species contains two unique and independent replicons of about 2,100 and 1,150 kb. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of intact DNA revealed two bands migrating the expected distances. These replicons were identified as two unique and independent chromosomes by the presence of rRNA operons and genes for heat shock proteins mapping to separate replicons. 相似文献

Macrorestriction fragment analysis of DNA from Pseudomonas cepacia 17616, in conjunction with Southern hybridization experiments using junction fragments containing rare restriction enzyme sites as probes, indicated that this bacterium contains three large circular replicons of 3.4, 2.5, and 0.9 megabases (Mb). Inclusion of the 170-kb cryptic plasmid present in this strain gave an overall estimate of genome size of 7 Mb. Other Southern hybridization experiments indicated that the three large replicons contained rRNA genes as well as insertion sequence elements identified previously in this strain. The distribution of SwaI, PacI, and PmeI sites on the three replicons was determined. A derivative of Tn5-751 carrying a SwaI site was used to inactivate and map genes on the 2.5- and 3.4-Mb replicons. Mutants were isolated in which the 2.5- and 0.9-Mb replicons had been reduced in size to 1.8 and 0.65 Mb, respectively. The loss of DNA from the 2.5-Mb replicon was associated with lysine auxotrophy, beta-lactamase deficiency, and failure to utilize ribitol and trehalose as carbon and energy sources. DNA fragments corresponding in size to randomly linearized forms of the different replicons were detected in unrestricted DNA by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. The results provide a framework for further genetic analysis of strain 17616 and for evaluation of the genomic complexities of other P. cepacia isolates. 相似文献

Preparation of megabase-sized tomato DNA and separation of large restriction fragments by field inversion gel electrophoresis (FIGE) 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The Schwartz and Cantor technique for releasing and fractionating megabase-sized DNA from agarose-embedded cells is beginning to bridge the gap in resoluation between classical genetics and current molecular DNA techniques, particularly in mammalian systems. As yet no conditions have been described for preparing plant DNA that is of sufficient length to allow similar long-range restriction mapping experiments in plant systems. In this report, we describe the application of the Schwartz and Cantor technique for preparing high molecular weight DNA from embedded tomato leaf protoplasts, as well as conditions for generating and fractionating large restriction fragments, by field inversion gel electrophoresis (FIGE). The bulk of DNA released from lysed protoplasts was at least 2 Mb in size and amenable to restriction digestion as shown by hybridizing Southern blots with, among others, a probe for the Adh-2 gene of tomato. Restriction fragments as large as 700 kb were detected. Chloroplast DNA is isolated intact, amenable to restriction analysis and, in its native form, not mobile in FIGE. 相似文献

Fourteen different plasmids hybridizing to Aspergillus nidulans 5S rRNA were isolated from a gene bank obtained after cloning Sau3A partial digests of A. nidulans DNA in a yeast--Escherichia coli vector, pBB29. The restriction maps of these plasmids were determined. The size of the cloned fragments was 2.7-9.5 kb, 12 of the plasmids were found to code for single 5S rRNA genes and 2 coded for 2 genes. No similarity of the sequences surrounding the 5S rRNA genes was found by restriction mapping. 相似文献

We report the construction of a physical map of the Mycoplasma gallisepticum S6 genome by field-inversion gel electrophoresis of DNA fragments generated by digestion of genomic DNA with rare-cutting restriction endonucleases. The size of the M. gallisepticum S6 genome was calculated to be approximately 1,054 kb. The loci of several genes have been assigned to the map by Southern hybridization utilizing specific gene probes. 相似文献

The physical map of Campylobacter jejuni TGH9011 (ATCC 43430) was constructed by mapping the three restriction enzyme sites SacII (CCGCGG), SalI (GTCGAC), and SmaI (CCCGGG) on the genome of C. jejuni by using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and Southern hybridization. A total of 25 restriction enzyme sites were mapped onto the C. jejuni chromosome. The size of the genome was reevaluated and was shown to be 1,812.5 kb. Ten C. jejuni genetic markers that have been isolated in our laboratory were mapped to specific restriction enzyme fragments. Furthermore, we have accurately mapped one of the three rRNA operons (rrnA) and have demonstrated a separation of the 16S and 23S rRNA-encoding sequences in one of the rRNA operons. 相似文献

A physical map of the apple proliferation phytoplasma strain AT chromosome was constructed from genomic DNA extracted from diseased tobacco plants. The map was generated with single and double digestions of the chromosome with BssHII, SmaI, MluI, and ApaI restriction endonucleases and resolving the fragments by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. Partial digestion and Southern blot analysis were used to assist in the arrangement of the 14 contiguous restriction fragments obtained. From the restriction fragments generated by double digestions, the size of the circular chromosome was calculated to be approximately 645 kb. Locations of the two rRNA operons, the operon including the fus and tuf genes, and three other genes were placed on the map. Genome sizes and BssHII restriction profiles of apple proliferation strain AP15 and the pear decline and European stone fruit yellows phytoplasmas were different from that of strain AT. 相似文献

A physical map of the Streptococcus (Diplococcus) pneumoniae chromosome, which is circular and 2,270 kbp in circumference, has been constructed. The restriction enzymes ApaI, SmaI, and SacII were used to digest intact chromosomes, and the fragments were resolved by field inversion gel electrophoresis (FIGE). The digests produced 22, 20, and 29 fragments, respectively. The order of the fragments was deduced from Southern blot hybridization of isolated labeled fragments to separated fragments of the various restriction digests. Genetic markers were correlated with the physical map by transformation of recipient cells with FIGE-isolated DNA fragments derived from genetically marked S. pneumoniae strains. In addition, markers were mapped by the hybridization of cloned genes to FIGE-separated restriction fragments. Six rRNA gene (rrn) clusters were mapped by hybridization to rrn-containing fragments of Haemophilus influenzae. 相似文献

Summary This paper reports the discovery and initial characterization of two small plasmids, pCfl and pCf2, in the marine diatomCylindrotheca fusiformis. Extracted diatom DNA separates into two bands in CsCI-Hoechst 33258 dye gradients. Upon agarose gel electrophoresis of a sample of the upper band of the gradient we observed, in addition to high molecular weight (genomic) chloroplast and mitochondrial DNA, pairs of lower molecular weight bands. These bands contained two species of circular plasmid DNA molecules, as shown by electron microscopy. The nucleotide composition of the plasmids, and chloroplast and mitochondrial DNAs is similar, as indicated by their co-banding in the gradients. They were cloned, and their restriction maps determined, showing that pCfl is 4.27 and pCf2 4.08 kb in size. By hybridization analysis, we showed that pCfl and pCf2 share regions of similarity, but not identity. Neither plasmid hybridizes with mitochondrial DNA. Both plasmids hybridize with chloroplast DNA, and pCf2 also hybridizes with nuclear DNA. 相似文献

A physical map is presented for the 1200 kb genome of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides Y, locating 32 cleavage sites for 8 restriction endonucleases. The large restriction fragments involved were separated and sized by pulsed-field agarose gel electrophoresis. Their locations on the map were determined by probing Southern blots of digests with individual fragments isolated from other digests and by correlating the products of double and triple digestions. Loci for 2 ribosomal RNA operons and 2 tRNA operons have been determined by probing with cloned genes and the broad regions of the replication origin and terminus have also been outlined by in vivo labelling studies. 相似文献

Radiation-reduced chromosomes provide valuable reagents for cloning and mapping genes, but they require multiple rounds of x-ray deletion mutagenesis to excise unwanted chromosomal DNA while maintaining physical attachment of the desired DNA to functional host centromere and telomere sequences. This requirement for chromosomal rearrangements can result in undesirable x-ray induced chromosome chimeras where multiple non-contiguous chromosomal fragments are fused. We have developed a cloning system for maintaining large donor subchromosomal fragments of mammalian DNA in the megabase size range as acentric chromosome fragments (double-minutes) in cultured mouse cells. This strategy relies on randomly inserted selectable markers for donor fragment maintenance. As a test case, we have cloned random segments of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) chromosomal DNA in mouse EMT-6 cells. This was done by cotransfecting plasmids pZIPNeo and pSV2dhfr into DHFR-CHO cells followed by isolation of a Neo + DHFR + CHO donor colony and radiation-fusion-hybridization (RFH) to EMT-6 cells. We then selected for initial resistance to G418 and then to increasing levels of methotrexate (MTX). Southern analysis of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of rare-cutting restriction endonuclease digestions of DNA from five RFH isolates indicated that all five contain at least 600 kb of unrearranged CHO DNA. In situ hybridization with the plasmids pZIPNeo and pSV2dhfr to metaphase chromosomes of MTX-resistant hybrid EMT-6 lines indicated that these markers reside on double-minute chromosomes. 相似文献

The genome size of Eperythrozoon suis, an unculturable haemotropic mycoplasma, was estimated using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Gamma irradiation was used to introduce one (on the average) double-strand break in the E. suis Illinois chromosome. Restriction enzymes that cut infrequently were also used to analyze genome size. The size estimate for the full-length genome was 745 kilobases (kb), whereas the size estimates based on the summation of restriction fragments ranged from 730 to 770 kb. The 16S rRNA gene was located on the 120-kb MluI fragment, 128-kb NruI fragment, 25-kb SacII fragment, and 217-kb SalI fragment by Southern blotting. 相似文献
