The Rb1 gene has been implicated with retinoblastoma and is located on human Chromosome (Chr) 13q14.2. A unique sequence human Rb1 cosmid DNA probe has been used to localize this region on apes' Chr 14 by the FISH technique. The conservation of the Rb1 gene in higher primates at the corresponding equivalent chromosome locus (14q14) of the human may serve as a phylogenetic
marker to further trace the evolutionary pathway of human descent.

Familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL) is a common genetic dyslipidemia predisposing to premature coronary heart disease
(CHD). We previously identified a locus for FCHL on human Chromosome (Chr) 1q21-q23 in 31 Finnish FCHL families. We also mapped
a gene for combined hyperlipidemia (Hyplip1) to a potentially orthologous region of mouse Chr 3 in the HcB-19/Dem mouse model of FCHL. The human FCHL locus was, however, originally mapped about 5 Mb telomeric to the synteny border, the
centromeric part of which is homologous to mouse Chr 3 and the telomeric part to mouse Chr 1. To further localize the human
Hyplip1 homolog and estimate its distance from the peak linkage markers, we fine-mapped the Hyplip1 locus and defined the borders of the region of conserved synteny between human and mouse. This involved establishing a physical
map of a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) contig across the Hyplip1 locus and hybridizing a set of BACs to both human and mouse chromosomes by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). We
narrowed the location of the mouse Hyplip1 gene to a 1.5-cM region that is homologous only with human 1q21 and within approximately 5–10 Mb of the peak marker for linkage
to FCHL. FCHL is a complex disorder and this distance may, thus, reflect the well-known problems hampering the mapping of
complex disorders. Further studies identifying and sequencing the Hyplip1 gene will show whether the same gene predisposes to hyperlipidemia in human and mouse.

Pigs with the dominant white coat color phenotype carry a duplication of the KIT gene encoding the mast/stem cell growth factor receptor 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Comparative mapping data suggested that the dominant white coat color in pigs may be due to a mutation in KIT which encodes the mast/stem cell growth factor receptor. We report here that dominant white pigs lack melanocytes in the
skin, as would be anticipated for a KIT mutation. We found a complete association between the dominant white mutation and a duplication of the KIT gene, or part of it, in samples of unrelated pigs representing six different breeds. The duplication was revealed by single
strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis and subsequent sequence analysis showing that white pigs transmitted two
nonallelic KIT sequences. Quantitative Southern blot and quantitative PCR analysis, as well as fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)
analysis, confirmed the presence of a gene duplication in white pigs. FISH analyses showed that KIT and the very closely linked gene encoding the platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFRA) are both located on the short
arm of Chromosome (Chr) 8 at band 8p12. The result revealed an extremely low rate of recombination in the centromeric region
of this chromosome, since the closely linked (0.5 cM) serum albumin (ALB) locus has previously been in situ mapped to the long arm (8q12). Pig Chr 8 shares extensive conserved synteny with human
Chr 4, but the gene order is rearranged.

Rab proteins are small GTP-ases localized to distinct membrane compartments in eukaryotic cells and regulating specific steps
of intracellular vesicular membrane traffic. The Rab7 protein is localized to the late endosomal compartment and controls
late steps of endocytosis. We have isolated, by library screening, the 5′ region, including the promoter, of the mouse Rab7 gene and a Rab7 pseudogene. We have mapped, by genetic linkage analysis, the mouse Rab7 gene on Chromosome (Chr) 6 and the Rab7-ps1 pseudogene on Chr 9, where the Rab7 gene has been previously reported to map. By radiation hybrid mapping, we have located the human RAB7 gene on Chr 3, in a
region homologous to the mouse Chr 6, where the Rab7 gene maps.

The adenylyl cyclases (AC) act as second messengers in regulatory processes in the central nervous system. They might be involved in the pathophysiology of diseases, but their biological function is unknown, except for AC type I, which has been implicated in learning and memory. We previously mapped the gene encoding AC I to human Chromosome (Chr) 7p12. In this study we report the mapping of the adenylyl cyclase genes type I–VI to mouse chromosomes by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH): Adcy1 to Chr 11A2, Adcy2 to 13C1, Adcy3 to 12A-B, Adcy4 to 14D3, Adcy5 to 16B5, and Adcy6 to 15F. We also confirmed previously reported mapping results of the corresponding human loci ADCY2, ADCY3, ADCY5, and ADCY6 to human chromosomes and, in addition, determined the chromosomal location of ADCY4 to human Chr 14q11.2. The mapping data confirm known areas of conservation between mouse and human chromosomes. 相似文献

We have determined the chromosomal localization of the murine gene encoding the 68-kDa sperm adhesion molecule 1, Spam1 or Ph-20. Using two independent approaches, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and interspecific backcross analysis, we show
that Spam1 maps to proximal mouse Chromosome (Chr) 6. This map position is within the conserved linkage group corresponding to human
Chr 7q, where the human homolog, SPAM 1, has been shown to map previously. Genetic mapping shows the gene to be very closely
linked to Met, one of the most proximal loci on MMU 6. It thus places the gene near the centromere and the junction of the Rb(6.16)24Lub
and Rb(6.15)1Ald translocations. The essential role of the Spam1 sperm antigen in mouse sperm-egg interactions and its gene
location provide strong support for its candidacy as the gene involved in the dysfunction of mouse sperm bearing the Rb(6.16)24Lub
or Rb(6.15)1Ald translocation.

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

Huntington's disease (HD) is a devastating central nervous system disorder. Even though the gene responsible has been positionally
cloned recently, its etiology has remained largely unclear. To investigate potential disease mechanisms, we conducted a search
for binding partners of the HD-protein huntingtin. With the yeast two-hybrid system, one such interacting factor, the huntingtin
interacting protein-1 (HIP-1), was identified (Wanker et al. 1997; Kalchman et al. 1997) and the human gene mapped to 7q11.2.
In this paper we demonstrate the localization of the HIP1 mouse homologue (Hip1) into a previously identified region of human-mouse synteny on distal mouse Chromosome (Chr) 5, both employing an IRS-PCR-based
mapping strategy and traditional fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) mapping.

Seven genes were regionally localized on rat Chromosome (Chr) 1, from 1p11 to 1q42, and two of these genes were also included
in a linkage map. This mapping work integrates the genetic linkage map and the cytogenetic map, and allows us to orient the
linkage map with respect to the centromere, and to deduce the approximate position of the centromere in the linkage map. These
mapping data also indicate that the Slc9a3 gene, encoding the Na+/H+ exchanger 3, is an unlikely candidate for the blood pressure loci assigned to rat Chr 1. These new localizations expand comparative
mapping between rat Chr 1 and mouse or human chromosomes.

A primary screen of the bovine genome for quantitative trait loci affecting twinning rate 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

An autosomal genome scan for quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting twinning rate was carried out in the Norwegian Cattle
population. Suggestive QTL were detected on Chromosomes (Chr) 5, 7, 12, and 23. Among these, the QTL positions on both Chr
5 and Chr 23 are strongly supported by literature in the field. Our results also confirm previous mapping of a QTL for twinning
to Chr 7, but definitely suggest a different location of the QTL on this chromosome. The most convincing QTL peak was observed
for a region in the middle part of Chr 5 close to the insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) gene. Since IGF1 plays an important role in the regulation of folliculogenesis, a mutation search was performed by sequencing more than 3.5
kb of the gene in actual families. The sequencing revealed three polymorphisms in noncoding regions of the gene that will
be important in fine structure mapping and characterization of the QTL.

The porcine genes encoding the immunoglobulin gamma heavy chain (IGHG), cAMP-dependent protein kinase catalytic beta subunit (PRKACB), and transition protein 2 (TNP2) were mapped to Chromosomes (Chrs) 7 q25–q26, 6q31–q33, and 3p13-cent, respectively, by in situ hybridization. Localization of the IGHG gene confirms the assignment of linkage group III to Chr 7. Our results show that the IGHG locus in pigs, similar to the situation in other mammalian species, viz. humans, mouse, cattle, and river buffaloes, is located on the terminal region of the chromosome. The assignment of the PRKACB gene extends the homology observed between porcine Chr 6q and human Chr 1p. Mapping of the TNP2 gene provides the first marker assigned to the p arm of Chr 3 in pigs. The present study contributes to the development of the physical gene map in pigs and also bears significance in terms of comparative gene mapping. 相似文献

Despite rapid progress in the physical characterization of murine and human genomes, little molecular information is available on certain regions, e.g., proximal mouse chromosome 11 (Chr 11) and human chromosome 2p (Chr 2p). We have localized thewobblerspinal atrophy genewrto proximal mouse Chr 11, tightly linked toRab1,a gene coding for a small GTP-binding protein, andGlns-ps1,an intronless pseudogene of the glutamine synthetase gene. We have now used these markers to construct a 1.3-Mb yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) contig of theRab1region on mouse Chr 11. Four YAC clones isolated from two independent YAC libraries were characterized by rare-cutting analysis, fluorescencein situhybridization (FISH), and sequence-tagged site (STS) isolation and mapping.Rab1andGlns-ps1were found to be only 200 kb apart. A potential CpG island near a methylatedNarI site and a trapped exon,ETG1.1,were found between these loci, and a new STS,AHY1.1,was found over 250 kb fromRab1.Two overlapping YACs were identified that contained a 150-kb region of human Chr 2p, comprising theRAB1locus,AHY1.1,and the human homologue ofETG1.1,indicating a high degree of conservation of this region in the two species. We mappedAHY1.1and thus humanRAB1on Chr 2p13.4–p14 using somatic cell hybrids and a radiation hybrid panel, thus extending a known region of conserved synteny between mouse Chr 11 and human Chr 2p. Recently, the geneLMGMD2Bfor a human recessive neuromuscular disease, limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B, has been mapped to 2p13–p16. The conservation between the mouseRab1and humanRAB1regions will be helpful in identifying candidate genes for thewobblerspinal muscular atrophy and in clarifying a possible relationship betweenwrandLMGMD2B. 相似文献

Fatty acid synthase and Acetyl-CoA carboxylase are both key enzymes of lipogenesis and may play a crucial role in the weight
variability of abdominal adipose tissue in the growing chicken. They are encoded by the FASN and ACACA genes, located on human Chromosome (Chr) 17q25 and on Chr 17q12 or 17q21 respectively, a large region of conserved synteny
among mammals. We have localized the homologous chicken genes FASN and ACACA coding for these enzymes, by single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis on different linkage groups of the Compton
and East Lansing consensus genetic maps and by FISH on two different chicken microchromosomes. Although synteny is not conserved
between these two genes, our results revealed linkage in chicken between FASN and NDPK (nucleoside diphosphate kinase), a homolog to the human NME1 and NME2 genes (non-metastatic cell proteins 1 and 2), both located on human Chr 17q21.3, and also between FASN and H3F3B (H3 histone family 3B), located on human Chr 17q25. The analysis of mapping data from the literature for other chicken and
mammalian genes indicates rearrangements have occurred in this region in the mammalian lineage since the mammalian and avian
radiation.

Formation of the neural tube plays a primary role in establishing the body plan of the vertebrate embryo. Here we describe
the phenotype and physical mapping of a highly penetrant X-linked male-lethal murine mutation, exma (exencephaly, microphthalmia/anophthalmia), that specifically disrupts development of the rostral neural tube and eye. The mutation arose from the random
insertion of a transgene into the mouse X Chromosome (Chr). Eighty-three percent of transgenic male embryos display an open,
disorganized forebrain and lack optic vesicles. No transgenic males survive beyond birth. Hemizygous females show a variable
phenotype, including reduced viability and occasional exencephaly and/or microphthalmia. Altered or reduced expression patterns
of Otx2, Pax6, Six3, and Mrx, known markers of early forebrain and eye development, confirmed the highly disorganized structure of the forebrain and lack
of eye development in affected exma male embryos. Physical mapping of the transgene by FISH localized a single insertion site to the interval between Dmd and Zfx on the X Chr. A 1-Mb contig of BAC clones was assembled by using sequences flanking the transgene and revealed that the insertion
lies close to Pola1 and Arx, a gene encoding a highly conserved homeobox protein known to be expressed in the developing forebrain of the mouse. Data
from Southern blots of normal and transgenic DNA demonstrated that a large segment of DNA encompassing Arx and including part of Pola1 was duplicated as a result of the transgene insertion. From the physical mapping results, we propose a model of the gross
rearrangements that accompanied transgene integration and discuss its implications for evaluating candidate genes for exma. 相似文献

We present here the genetic mapping of the -skeletal actin locus (Actsk-1) on mouse Chromosome (Chr) 8, on the basis of the PCR analysis of a microsatellite in an interspecific backcross. Linkage and genetic distances were established for four loci by analysis of 192 (or 222) meiotic events and indicated the following gene order: (centromere)-Es-1-11.7 cM-Tat-8.3 cM-Actsk-1-0.5 cM-Aprt. Mapping of ACTSK to human Chr 1 and of TAT and APRT to human Chr 16 demonstrates the existence of a new short region of homology between mouse Chr 8 and human Chr 1. Intermingling on this scale between human and mouse chromosomal homologies that occurred during evolution creates disorders in comparative linkage studies. 相似文献

We have determined the cDNA sequence and exon/intron structure of the human CLPX gene encoding a human ortholog of the E. coli ClpX chaperone and protease subunit. The CLPX gene comprises 14 exons and encodes a 633-amino acid-long precursor polypeptide.
The polypeptide contains an N-terminal putative mitochondrial transit peptide, and expression of a full-length ClpX cDNA tagged
at its C-terminus (Myc-His) shows that the polypeptide is transported into mitochondria. FISH analysis localized the CLPX
gene to human Chromosome (Chr) 15q22.1-22.32. This localization was refined by radiation hybrid mapping placing the CLPX gene
4.6 cR distal to D15S159. Murine ClpX cDNA was sequenced, and the mouse Clpx locus was mapped to a position between 31 and 42 cM offset from the centromere on mouse Chr 9. Experimental observations
indicate the presence of a pseudogene in the mouse genome and sequence variability between mouse ClpX cDNAs from different
strains. Alignment of the human and mouse ClpX amino acid sequences with ClpX sequences from other organisms shows that they
display the typical modular organization of domains with one AAA+ domain common to a large group of ATPases and several other domains conserved in ClpX orthologs linked by non-conserved sequences.
Notably, a C-4 zinc finger type motif is recognized in human and mouse ClpX. This motif of so far unknown function is present
only in a subset of the known ClpX sequences.

The calcium-sensing receptor (CASR), a member of the G-protein coupled receptor family, is expressed in both parathyroid and kidney, and aids these organs in sensing extracellular calcium levels. Inactivating mutations in the CASR gene have been described in familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) and neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT). Activating mutations in the CASR gene have been described in autosomal dominant hypoparathyroidism and familial hypocalcemia. The human CASR gene was mapped to Chromosome (Chr) 3q13.3-21 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). By somatic cell hybrid analysis, the gene was localized to human Chr 3 (hybridization to other chromosomes was not observed) and rat Chr 11. By interspecific backcross analysis, the Casr gene segregated with D16Mit4 on mouse Chr 16. These findings extend our knowledge of the synteny conservation of human Chr 3, rat Chr 11, and mouse Chr 16. 相似文献

The human autosomal dominant neuromuscular disorder facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is associated with deletions
within a complex tandem DNA repeat (D4Z4) on Chromosome (Chr) 4q35. The molecular mechanism underlying this association of
FSHD with DNA rearrangements is unknown, and, thus far, no gene has been identified within the repeat. We isolated a gene
mapping 100 kb proximal to D4Z4 (FSHD Region Gene 1:FRG1), but were unable to detect any alterations in total or allele-specific mRNA levels of FRG1 in FSHD patients. Human
Chr 4q35 exhibits synteny homology with the region of mouse Chr 8 containing the gene for the myodystrophy mutation (myd), a possible mouse homolog of FSHD. We report the cloning of the mouse gene (Frg1) and show that it maps to mouse Chr 8. Using a cross segregating the myd mutation and the European Collaborative Interspecific Backcross, we showed that Frg1 maps proximal to the myd locus and to the Clc3 and Ant1 genes.

KET is a member of the newly discovered family of proteins that is related to the tumor suppressor p53. Here we describe
the molecular cloning of a human cDNA of 4846 bp encoding a protein of 680 amino acids. The human KET protein shares 98% identity
with the previously characterized rat homolog. The remarkably high degree of conservation lends support to the notion that
KET proteins have important basic functions in development and differentiation. Using the GeneBridge 4 radiation hybrid panel,
we have mapped KET to human Chromosome (Chr) 3q27. KET is located between the somatostatin gene SST (proximal) and the apolipoprotein
D gene APOD (distal) in a region of conserved synteny to mouse Chr 16. This chromosomal region is deleted in early stages
of tumorigenesis of mouse islet cell carcinomas and contains the hitherto unidentified Loh2 gene, a putative suppressor of angiogenesis. The murine homolog Ket was mapped in an interspecific backcross panel and falls into this region of loss of heterozygosity. From our mapping data
we infer that KET might act as a tumor suppressor and is considered as a candidate for Loh2.

The mammalian genome contains hundreds if not thousands of zinc finger protein (Zfp) genes. While the function of most of these genes remains to be determined, it is clear that a few of them play important
roles in gene regulation and development. In studies described here, we have used an interspecific mouse backcross mapping
panel to determine the chromosomal location of 15 KRAB-containing zinc finger loci. These loci map to nine different mouse
autosomes and the X Chromosome (Chr). Two Chrs, 7 and 9, contain cosegregating pairs of KRAB-containing Zfp genes, indicating that the KRAB-containing Zfp genes have evolved through processes involving regional as well as genome-wide duplication events.
