A large proportion (0.5-1%) of total mouse DNA is cleaved by Bam HI into fragments whose size is about 500 base pairs. A cloned member of this repetitive family of DNA sequences (BAM5 family) was sequenced by the dideoxy chain termination procedure and shown to contain 507 base pairs. The sequence exhibited no unusual or remarkable features. Repetitive sequences complementary to the cloned BAM5 fragment were found in rat DNA, but not in feline or human DNA. Restriction mapping suggested that many BAM5 sequences were components of much larger repetitive DNAs which were scattered throughout the mouse genome. The BAM5 sequences within the larger repetitive DNAs did not appear to be arranged tandemly or as members of scrambled tandem repeats. RNA homologous to the cloned BAM5 sequence was detected in cultured mouse cells, but not in cultured rat cells. 相似文献

A novel HLA-A allele, HLA-A*0279, was identified using PCR-SSP and PCR-SBT methods. It is inheritable. HLA-A*0279 differs from HLA-A*020601 by a single nucleotide at position 497 in exon 3, leading to an amino acid change from Threonine to Isoleucine at the alpha2 helix of HLA molecule. To investigate whether the altered amino acid residue could affect its peptide-binding repertoire, we compared the predicted crystal structure of HLA-A*020601 and HLA-A*0279 by Swiss-PdbViewer software analysis. We found that the crystal structure of the two molecules is very similar except for a difference in the number of hydrogen bonds they can possibly form, which in turn could affect their structural stability. To test whether HLA-A*0279 has the ability to cross-present A*0201 - restricted peptides to T cells, the full lenght cDNA of HLA-A*0201, -A* 020601 and -A*0279 were respectively transfected into COS-7 cells, which were then used as targets in IFN-gamma release Elispot assay. A*2079 was found to be able to present A*0201- restricted peptides to and induce the response of CTL, thus it can be classified as member of the HLA-A2 functional supertype family. This finding would benefit the design of peptide vaccines to be applied in broader populations.The nucleotide sequence data reported in this paper have been submitted to the Genbank nucleotide sequence database and have been assigned the accession numbers AY856830 and HWS10002813.The name HLA-A*0279 was officially assigned by the World Health Organization Nomenclature Committee in January 2005. 相似文献

An inherited variant (b4v) of the rabbit kappa-chain allotype b4 is characterized by the presence of serine in place of alanine at position 121 and leucine in place of glutamine at position 124. The variant was traced through eight generations of a pedigreed rabbit family. Genetic analysis of this trait demonstrated that it is an allele of the other group b allotypes, and recent breedings have produced rabbits homozygous for this light-chain type. Two findings, other than the amino acid sequence differences, distinguish b4v from b4 in our colony. First, the level of expression of b4v in heterozygous rabbits is less than that of b4. For example, in b4b4v rabbits, approximately 30% of the preimmune IgG carries b4v. In b4vb5 animals, 46% of the IgG carries the allotype b5, although in animals of allotype b4b5, 38% of the IgG is b5. Second, retrospective analysis of some litters revealed an abnormally low frequency of b4v in male heterozygotes. However, male b4vb4v homozygotes were found at the expected frequency in prospective crosses between b4vb5 rabbits.For reasons of simplicity the variant will be referred to here as b4v 相似文献

The red blood cell esterase D (ESD) polymorphism was studied by means of IEF in a North-East Spanish population (Barcelona). Gene frequencies in 430 unrelated individuals were ESD*1: 0.888, ESD*2: 0.091 and ESD*5: 0.021. Our data confirm previous results showing that ESD*5 occurs in polymorphic frequency and has a Caucasian origin. 相似文献

The karyotypes of Eulemur species exhibit a high degree of variation, as a consequence of the Robertsonian fusion and/or centromere fission. Centromeric and pericentromeric heterochromatin of eulemurs is constituted by highly repeated DNA sequences (including some telomeric TTAGGG repeats) which have so far been investigated and used for the study of the systematic relationships of the different species of the genus Eulemur. In our study, we have cloned a set of repetitive pericentromeric sequences of five Eulemur species: E. fulvus fulvus (EFU), E. mongoz (EMO), E. macaco (EMA), E. rubriventer (ERU), and E. coronatus (ECO). We have characterized these clones by sequence comparison and by comparative fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis in EMA and EFU. Our results showed a high degree of sequence similarity among Eulemur species, indicating a strong conservation, within the five species, of these pericentromeric highly repeated DNA sequences. 相似文献

The seasonality of births in the period 1871-1977 is studied in a rural north-western Spanish population. Based on a total sample of 11,695 birth registrations, temporal variation is analysed. For siblings, according to family reconstitution, the total family size, the legitimacy of the child, and birth order are considered. A coefficient of birth month dispersion is defined and estimated for each family. Intra-family variation is related to inter-family coefficients in order to determine whether the local seasonal pattern of births may be partly explained by family characteristics. 相似文献

Characterization of IIB-MEL-J: a new and highly heterogenous human melanoma cell line 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

A highly heterogeneous cell line, IIB-MEL-J, was established from a human metastatic melanoma. This cell line contains small cells, dendritic cells, and megacells with multiple nuclei. IIB-MEL-J expresses S 100, cytokeratin intermediate filaments and the gangliosides GD2 and GD3. It requires growth factors (insulin, EGF, and transferrin) and antioxidants for optimal growth. When plated under optimal conditions, IIB-MEL-J grows with a doubling time of 70-80 hours. The cells may be fractionated by Percoll gradient centrifugation into several subpopulations (A, B, and C) with different characteristics. Subpopulation A is the slowest growing, and most of the DNA-synthesizing cells are concentrated in fractions B and C. Every subpopulation expresses S 100 and cytokeratin intermediate filaments, whereas only subpopulation B and C express GD2 and GD3. Pigmented cells are concentrated mainly in subpopulation C. Cytogenetic analysis of IIB-MEL-J revealed extensive chromosomal alterations, including a highly heterogeneous chromosome number and chromosomal rearrangements, gains, losses, isochromosomes, and double minutes. This highly heterogeneous cell line may be helpful to study cellular differentiation and interaction between different subpopulations in human melanoma. 相似文献

HLA-A2 protects from EBV+ classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) in Western Europe, but it is unknown whether this protective effect also exists in the Chinese population. We investigated the association of HLA-A2 and specific common and well documented HLA-A2 subtypes with EBV stratified cHL patients (n = 161) from the northern part of China. Quantitative-PCR and sequence-based subtyping was performed to identify HLA-A2 positive samples and their subtypes. 67 (42%) of the cHL patients were EBV+. There were no significant differences in percentages of HLA-A2 positivity between cHL and controls (65% vs 66%) and between EBV+ and EBV− cHL patients (70% vs 61%). The frequency distribution of HLA-A2 subtypes was significantly different between EBV stratified cHL subgroups and controls. This difference was most striking for the HLA-A*02:07 type with a frequency of 38% in EBV+ cHL, 8% in EBV− cHL and 20% in controls. Significant differences were also observed for the HLA-A*02:07, HLA-A2 (non-02:07) and the A2-negative typings between EBV+ cHL vs controls (p = 0.028), EBV− cHL vs controls (p = 0.045) and EBV+ vs EBV− cHL cases (p = 2×10−5). In conclusion, HLA-A*02:07 is a predisposing allele for EBV+ cHL and a protective allele for EBV− cHL in the northern Chinese population. 相似文献

Segregation distortion of alleles was found in several regions of the genome in allele type analyses of genetic markers for a swine resource family that had been constructed by crossing G?ttingen miniature pig and Meishan breeds. From these regions, a region on chromosome 6 presented a distortion over several consecutive markers. This chromosome 6 region was subsequently further investigated to reveal that alleles of a chromosome 6 homologue of the Gottingen miniature pig were not found in a homozygous family member. The litter size of F1-crosses which were able to produce homozygotes in this region were 24% smaller, on average, than F1-crosses which were unable to produce homozygotes. This indicated that this region of the chromosome 6 homologue contained a recessive gene or genes which could terminate fetal development. An additional 10 markers were subsequently used to investigate the region more precisely. These studies revealed that this region spans 7 cM and is located between markers Sw855 and Sw122. Since current comparative maps show that this region corresponds to the human chromosome 19 q-arm, genes positioned on the human chromosome 19 q-arm were screened to select 20 candidate genes. These included the pregnancy-specific beta-1-glycoprotein gene. 相似文献

Characterization of a highly repeated DNA family in tapetinae species (mollusca bivalvia: veneridae)
A repetitive DNA family (phBglII400) was characterized in the clam species Tapes philippinarum (Veneridae Tapetinae). The tandemly repeated sequences are AT-rich and show a mainly pericentromeric localization, as most satellite DNAs do. Sequence analysis of phBglII400 DNA family showed a high level of intraspecific homogeneity. Furthermore a 200 bp subunit motif within the 400 bp monomer was apparent as well as the existence of two main "open reading frames" along the 400 bp sequence.In order to investigate the possible distribution of this DNA family among Veneridae, Southern blot analyses were performed on genomic DNAs of Tapes decussatus, Venerupis aurea and Paphia undulata (Tapetinae), Callista chione (Pitarinae), Chamelea gallina (Chioninae) and Venus verrucosa (Venerinae). The phBglII400 family has been found in two additional Tapetinae, namely V. aurea and P. undulata, but not in T. decussatus or other analyzed species. This pattern of sat-DNA distribution supports the high level of differentiation of T. decussatus observed in the previous gene-allozyme analysis. All of these suggest a better allocation of T. decussatus to a genus different from that of T. philippinarum. 相似文献
