Evolutionary history of chromosome 20

The evolutionary history of human chromosome 20 in primates was investigated using a panel of human BAC/PAC probes spaced along the chromosome. Oligonucleotide primers derived from the sequence of each human clone were used to screen horse, cat, pig, and black lemur BAC libraries to assemble, for each species, a panel of probes mapping to chromosomal loci orthologous to the loci encompassed by the human BACs. This approach facilitated marker-order comparison aimed at defining marker arrangement in primate ancestor. To this goal, we also took advantage of the mouse and rat draft sequences. The almost perfect colinearity of chromosome 20 sequence in humans and mouse could be interpreted as evidence that their form was ancestral to primates. Contrary to this view, we found that horse, macaque, and two New World monkeys share the same marker-order arrangement from which the human and mouse forms can be derived, assuming similar but distinct inversions that fully account for the small difference in marker arrangement between humans and mouse. The evolutionary history of this chromosome unveiled also two centromere repositioning events in New World monkey species.     

Intraspecific crosses resulting in the first occurrence of eight and nine B chromosomes in Prochilodus lineatus (Characiformes, Prochilodontidae)

B chromosomes are supernumerary elements present in about 15% of eukaryotic species and are most frequently heterochromatic, behave parasitically, show a transmission rate higher than standard (A) chromosomes, and can provoke harmful effects on carriers. In the current work, Prochilodus lineatus individuals carrying eight and nine B chromosomes were obtained by induced crossing performed involving breeders with different B chromosome numbers in their cells. The high B chromosome numbers found in the offspring were recorded for the first time in this species. The use of cytogenetic techniques applied in the present study revealed that regardless of the increase in number of B chromosomes in the genome of these individuals, those elements did not presented active genes, and showed their normal heterochromatic characteristic.     

Dynamics of chromosome compaction during mitosis

We have quantitatively studied the space-time dynamics of mitotic chromosome compaction in cultured amphibian cells. After collecting digital phase-contrast images we have done digital image analysis to study spatial correlations in density. We find a characteristic distance at which the strongest correlations occur, which provides a quantitative measure of the size of patches of dense chromatin during interphase and early prophase. Later in mitosis, this length corresponds to the thickness of prophase and metaphase chromosomes. We find that during interphase strong correlations exist at a few-micrometer length; during prophase this correlation length progressively drops as the chromosomes are compacted. Our data are explained by a model based on assembly of chromatin loops onto already fiberlike interphase chromosomes. To test this model we have microinjected cobalt hexamine trichloride into interphase nuclei and have observed the rapid condensation of the interphase chromatin into thick fibers with a spacing similar to the native-state interphase correlation length determined from our image analysis.     

Clinical findings and cytogenetic analysis of small supernumerary ring chromosomes 7: report of two new cases

Two new patients, mosaic for a small supernumerary ring chromosome 7 are described. There are only seven published reported concerning supernumerary ring chromosome 7 and we reviewed the previously reported cases in an attempt to establish genotype-phenotype correlations, which are particularly important for genetic counselling and clinical genetics. Our first case was a 20 months old girl who was referred for a mild motor developmental delay, an asymmetric facial appearance, a plagiocephaly and a short nose with anteverted nostrils. Our second case was a 9 years old boy who was referred for a IQ at the lower end of the normal range (? 80), obesity, hyperactivity and some dysmorphic features including hypertelorism and down slanting palpebral fissures. In both cases, chromosome analysis after G and R banding and FISH showed a small ring chromosome 7 in respectively 76% and 50% of consecutively scored metaphases. Both ring chromosomes were labelled by FISH using the Williams Syndrome locus probe (Elastin Gene D7S486). Comparison between these two cases and previously published cases allowed to delineate frequent clinical findings. A mild mental retardation was found in the majority of patients. which is an important data for genetic counselling.

Genomic imprinting: male mice with uniparentally derived sex chromosomes

Although it has been known that there is an X-chromosome imprinting effect during early embryogenesis in female mammals, it remains unknown if parental origin of the X chromosome has an effect in males. Furthermore, it has not been possible to produce animals with normal sex chromosomes of uniparental origin to further evaluate such imprinting effects. We have devised a breeding scheme to produce male mice, designated XPYP males, in which both the X and Y chromosomes are paternally inherited. To our knowledge, these are the first mammals produced that have a normal sex chromosome constitution but with both sex chromosomes derived from one parent. Development and reproduction in these XPYP males and the sex ratio and chromosome constitution of their offspring appeared normal; thus there is no apparent effect in males of having both sex chromosomes derive from one parent or of having the X chromosome derived from an inappropriate parent. Although we have detected no X-chromosome imprinting effect in these males, evidence from other sources suggest that the X chromosome is parentally imprinted. Thus detection and definition of an imprint can depend on the assay used.     

Meiosis and chromosome painting of sex chromosome systems in Ceboidea

The identity of the chromosomes involved in the multiple sex system of Alouatta caraya (Aca) and the possible distribution of this system among other Ceboidea were investigated by chromosome painting of mitotic cells from five species and by analysis of meiosis at pachytene in two species. The identity of the autosome #7 (X2) involved in the multiple system of Aca and its breakage points were demonstrated by both meiosis and chromosome painting. These features are identical to those described by Consigliere et al. [1996] in Alouatta seniculus sara (Assa) and Alouatta seniculus arctoidea (Asar). This multiple system was absent in the other four Ceboidea species studied here. However, data from the literature strongly suggest the presence of this multiple in other members of this genus. The presence of this multiple system among several species and subspecies that show high levels of chromosome rearrangements may suggest a special selective value of this multiple. The meiotic features of the sex systems of Aca and Cebus apella paraguayanus (Cap) are strikingly different at pachytene, as the latter system is similar to the sex pair of man and other primates. The relatively large genetic distances between species presently showing this multiple system suggest that its origin is not recent. Other members of the same genus should be investigated at meiosis and by chromosome painting in order to know the extent and distribution of this complex sex-chromosome system.
