The lymphoma cell line BJAB.B95.8.6 was gamma-irradiated to induce mutations of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) encoded genes. Cloned wild-type cells were phenotyped HLA-A1, A2, B 13, 1335, Bw4, Bw6, Cw4, DR5, DRw52, DQwl, DQw3, DPw2, DPw4, GLO1*1, PGM3*2-1, and ME1*0 and possessed two apparently normal chromosome 6s prior to mutagenesis. Loss mutants were selected 5 days after 3 Gy gamma-irradiation employing three complement-fixing monoclonal antibodies specific for HLA-A2 (TÜ101) and Bw4 (TÜ48, TÜ109). Fifteen independently arising mutants were isolated and cloned. Typing with monospecific alloantisera and cell-mediated lympholysis revealed the presence of HLA-A1, 835, Bw6, Cw4, DR5. DRw52, DQw3, and DPw4 specificities on all mutant clones. HLA-A2, B13, and Bw4 were absent. Mutants differed in their expression of class 11 antigens. One group retained DQw1 and DPw2, another was DQw1–, DPw2+, and a third was DQw1–, DPw2–. Karyotyping of the wild-type line and selected mutant clones showed that the loss of HLA specificities correlated with deletions which map the HLA-A and -B loci directly to the distal part of the 6p2l.33 region and the class II genes to the region 6p21.33 (proximal) to 6p21.31 (distal) on the short arm of chromosome 6.Abbreviations used in this paper: CML

Several new HLA-B (B8, B51, Bw62)- and HLA-C (Cw6, Cw7)-specific genes were isolated either as genomic cosmid or cDNA clones to study the diversity of HLA antigens. The allele specificities were identified by sequence analysis in comparison with published HLA-B and -C sequences, by transfection experiments, and Southern and northern blot analysis using oligonucleotide probes. Comparison of the classical HLA-A, -B, and -C sequences reveals that allele-specific substitutions seem to be rare events. HLA-B51 codes only for one allelespecific residue: arginine at position 81 located on the 1 helix, pointing toward the antigen binding site. HLA-B8 contains an acidic substitution in amino acid position 9 on the first central sheet which might affect antigen binding capacity, perhaps in combination with the rare replacement at position 67 (F) on the ul helix. HLA-B8 shows greatest homology to HLA-Bw42, -Bw41, -B7, and-Bw60 antigens, all of which lack the conserved restriction sites Pst I at position 180 and Sac I at position 131. Both sites associated with amino acid replacements seem to be genetic markers of an evolutionary split of the HLA-B alleles, which is also observed in the leader sequences. HLA-Cw7 shows 98% sequence identity to the JY328 gene. In general, the HLA-C alleles display lower levels of variability in the highly polymorphic regions of the 1 and 2 domains, and have more distinct patterns of locus-specific residues in the transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains. Thus we propose a more recent origin for the HLA-C locus. 相似文献

From a human cDNA library constructed from a consanguineous HLA-homozygous cell line, AKIBA (HLA-A24, Bw52, DR2, Dw12, DQw1, and Cp63) (Cp63, a new SB type), a cDNA clone encoding a new HLA class II antigen heavy chain named DQ alpha was isolated, and was analyzed by Southern blot hybridization and by nucleotide sequence determination. The nucleotide sequence of the DO alpha cDNA was distinct from those of the DR alpha, the DQ alpha, and the DP alpha cDNA, but showed some characteristic features of the class II antigen alpha-chains. We also isolated and identified genomic clones specifying the DO alpha gene. Genomic analyses of cell lines with different HLA-DR serotypes with the use of the DO alpha cDNA as a probe indicated the existence of a single DO alpha gene that exhibited little restriction enzyme polymorphism. 相似文献

Radioimmunoassay of HLA-transformed mouse L cells expressing A3, A24, B7, or Cw3 HLA class I molecules with a set of monomorphic monoclonal antibodies distinguishes between A3–A24 and B7-Cw3 patterns of reactivity. Analyses with Bw6-specific monoclonal antibodies and a human alloantiserum demonstrate the expression by the HLA-Cw3 molecules of a Bw6 public specificity related to but not identical with that expressed by the HLA-B7 molecules. Exon-shuffling experiments and inhibition studies of monoclonal antibody cell-surface fixation indicate that similar parts of B7 and Cw3 molecules account for their serological cross-reactivity.Abbreviations used in this paper

Analysis of available nucleotide sequence data for class I HLA genes has established that the seventh intron is one of the gene regions which expresses the highest degree of locus specificity (the percentage sequence divergence between nonallelic genes minus the percentage sequence divergence between allelic genes). We have subcloned short DNA sequences including this region from the HLA-Cw3 gene. Two clones, pC250 and pC800, were tested by hybridizing them at high stringency to a panel of clones containing class I HLA genes. Under conditions permitting a strong hybridization signal with a C-locus gene, pC800 also expressed a weak but significant hybridization to other class I genes, while pC250 appeared to hybridize exclusively to the C-locus gene. Hybridization of the pC250 probe at high stringency to Hind III-digested genomic DNA from a panel of unrelated individuals and homozygous typing cell lines revealed a single band in all cases. However, equivalent hybridization against Eco RI-digested DNA revealed two hybridization bands, one at 7.9 kb which correlated with the serologically defined Cw5 and Cw8 alleles, and one at 7.6 kb which correlated with the Cw1, Cw2, Cw3, Cw4, Cw6, and Cw7 alleles. 相似文献

The loci for BF, C2, C4A, and C4B are very closely linked to each other so that alleles of these plasma protein markers occur in populations in linkage disequilibrium and are inherited as single genetic units called complotypes. These complotypes are coded by a DNA region of the short arm of chromosome 6 embracing approximately 100 kilobases, which serve as a marker of the major histocompatibility complex. We have studied the complotypes of nine families with known HLA-B/DR crossovers. In seven families, the complotypes were inherited with HLA-DR, including in one family with a double recombination. The haplotype HLA-A28, Cw1, B27, FC3, 20, DR4 of JTr resulted from two recombinations between HLA-A2, Cwl, B27, SC42, DR7 and HLA-A28, Cwx or Cw1, B37, FC3, 20, DR4. In the remaining two families (Ro and Lo) the complotypes were inherited with HLA-B. The haplotype A2, Cw5, Bw44, SC30, DR3 of StLo resulted from paternal recombination between the haplotypes A2, Cw5, Bw44, SC30, DR4 and A24, B8, SC01, DR3, and the haplotype A24, Cw4, Bw35, SC31, DR3 of NaRo resulted from maternal recombination between A24, Cw4, Bw35, SC31, DR4 and A26, Bw41, FC31, DR3. Our data suggest that the complotype region maps closer to HLA-D than to HLA-B. 相似文献

Fifty-six unrelated Japanese patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) were HLA-typed, and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis was performed after enzyme digestion with Bam HI and Taq I by using both DR and DQ probes. As previously reported, increased frequencies of Bw54, Cw1, DR4, and DRw53, which are in strong linkage disequilibrium in the Japanese population and make the characteristic Japanese haplotype, were confirmed. DQw4, a new allele of the DQ system recognized by the monoclonal antibody HU-46 and in linkage disequilibrium with this haplotype, presented the highest IDDM association. The RFLP analysis also showed the strongest correlation to IDDM when the DQ probe was applied. These results indicate that HLA-DQ might play the most important role in the development of IDDM in Japanese as well as in Caucasians. The correlation of DQ amino acid sequences strongly associated with IDDM in Japanese are discussed in this study, and contrasting results were found when such sequences were compared with those of Caucasians.Abbreviations used in this paper IDDM

Our previous studies suggested that a serologically undetectable HLA-C blank allele (HLA-CwBL18) is either a variant Cw5 allele or a novel HLA-C Ag. To examine these possibilities, the CwBL18 and Cw5 genes from the TCC (HLA-A1, -A2, -B52, -B18, -Cw-, -Cw-) and QBL (HLA-A26, -B18, -Cw5) EBV-transformed B lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCL) were cloned, sequenced, and transferred into HLA-A, -B, -C null LCL mutant .221 cells. The CwBL18 Ag was detected on the cell surface of CwBL18 transferents by flow cytometry with the anti-class I mAb W6/32 but not by complement-mediated cytotoxicity with currently available HLA-C specific antisera. Sequence analysis of the Cw-BL18 gene indicated that the CwBL18 Ag is "C"-like because it contains all C-locus-specific residues and amino acid replacements commonly found in HLA-C alleles. However, the amino acid sequence of the CwBL18 Ag is unusual; CwBL18 lacks unique allele-specific residues when compared with the sequences of other HLA-C alleles. Moreover, apart from the C-locus-specific differences, the sequence of CwBL18 is identical to the HLA class I consensus sequence. This striking homology of CwBL18 to other HLA class I alleles suggests that CwBL18 may be a weak Ag. Taken together, these data demonstrate that CwBL18 is not a variant Cw5 Ag but is a newly described HLA-C Ag. In contrast to CwBL18, the Cw5 Ag is serologically detectable on the cell surface of Cw5 transferents with HLA-specific allo-antisera. Rather unexpectedly, Cw5 was usually expressed at a lower level than CwBL18 on the surface of .221 transferents as evaluated by W6/32 mAb binding analyses. The sequence of Cw5 revealed several unique amino acid replacements. Two of these substitutions, at residue 35 of the alpha 1 domain and residue 275 of the transmembrane domain, may be responsible for the reduced cell surface expression of Cw5. Additional unique replacements at residues 138 and 177 of the alpha 2 domain suggest that these amino acids may be important in the formation of an epitope recognized by a Cw5-specific antibody. 相似文献

We have used the HLA-C-specific DNA probe pC250 to investigate restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) at the HLA-C locus. Genomic Southern blot hybridization included DNA prepared from a panel of homozygous typing cells representing serological specificities Cw1 to Cw8 and also from samples representing Cw blanks. Although many restriction nucleases failed to reveal any polymorphism, RFLPs were evident with Taq I, Pvu II, Bst XI, Nde 1, and Nci I in addition to the previously reported Eco RI. In the case of Bst XI, a unique RFLP defined a subset of serologically defined Cw blanks. Comparison of RFLP sizes with restriction fragment lengths obtained from the known HLA-Cw3 gene sequence permitted the localization of intragenic C locus RFLLs and the identification of a variable Taq I site in the second intron, a variable Nci I site near the end of the fourth exon, and a variable Pvu lI site in the fifth intron. 相似文献

Two major histocompatibility complex (MHC) ancestral haplotypes (AH) HLA A24, Bw52, C2C, BfS, C4A3 + 2, C4BQO, DRw15, DQw6 (52.1) and HLA A24, Cw7, B7, C2C, BfS, C4A3 + 3, C4B1, DR1, DQw5 (7.2), which occur with the haplotype frequencies of approximately 10% and 4% respectively in the Japanese population, carry duplicated C4A alleles by C4 allotyping. Southern blot analysis with Taq I indicated that the 52.1 AH has two C4 genes defined by 7.0 kilobase (kb) and 6.0 kb C4 hybridizing fragments but both encode C4A allotypes, being C4A3 and C4A2 respectively. The 7.2 AH carries two C4A3 and one C4B1 alleles and restriction lenght polymorphism (RFLP) analysis with Taq I showed that 6.0 kb and 7.0 kb fragments are in the proportion of 2:1. By pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) analysis, the lengths of the Pvul fragments carrying C4 and Cyp21 genes were approximately 390 kb for 52.1 and 440 kb to 7.2. The results indicate that the RFLP markers do not correlate with C4 isotype (A or B) or allotype and that the C4 gene copy number is a function of the number of genomic blocks containing C4 and Cyp21. 相似文献

The molecular organization of HLA-DQ regions derived from DR7, DQw2, and DR4, DQw3 parental haplotypes and DR7, DQw3, a presumed recombinant haplotype, have been studied to define the sequences between DQA1 and DQB1 which may have been involved in this recombinational event. The breakpoint was localized in the intergenic region near the 3 end of the DQB1 gene by restriction mapping. DNA sequences in the immediate vicinity of the breakpoint in DR7, DQw2 (parental), and DR7, DQw3 (recombinant) haplotypes revealed the presence of (CA)22 repeats, minisatellite-related sequences and GC-rich sequences. The intergenic regions varied considerably depending on the haplotype and contained several additional types of repetitive sequences including Alu and LINE repeats. Some of these sequences are related to sequences previously suggested to be involved in meiotic or somatic recombination. In particular, (CA)n repeats, which can adopt the Z-DNA conformation, have previously been shown to promote recombination in several systems.

T-lymphocyte clones specific for the influenza A/Texas virus were obtained by limiting dilution of activated T cells from an HLA A2/3, B7/39, Cw -/-, DR2-short/2 short, DQw1/w1, DwFJO/FJO donor. Among the proliferating clones studied, and irrespective of their antigenic specificities, most of them were restricted by epitope(s) on HLA-DR molecules present only on DR2-short/DwFJO cells but not on DR2-negative or DR2-long positive (Dw2, Dw12, Dw-) cells. Two clones were restricted by epitopes borne by DQ products. Here again, these epitopes were present on DR2-short/DwFJO but not on DR2-long, DQw1 (Dw2, Dw12) cells, indicating that the DQwl molecules of DR2-long and DR2-short haplotypes are different. Taken together, these results indicate that the DR2-short, DwFJO haplotype is characterized by both HLA-DR- and DQ-specific molecules. Finally, one clone was restricted by an epitope shared by DR products from DR2 short/DwFJO, DRw11, and DRw13 haplotypes. This latter functional determinant has never been described until now.Abbreviations used in this paper APC

Class II genes of miniature swine 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Genomic clones corresponding to class II genes of theSLA
c haplotype of miniature swine have been isolated and characterized. These genes have been grouped into seven non-overlapping clusters on the basis of restriction mapping. Ordering of exons within each cluster was accomplished by hybridization of Southern blots of restriction fragments with exon-specific probes. The two clusters (clusters 2 and 3) encoding theDRB andDQB genes were identified on the basis of hybridization with locus-specific 3 untranslated cDNA probes. Cluster 4 contained exons of bothDOB andDQB genes, the basis for which remains to be determined. The remaining four clusters (1, 5, 6, 7) were identified as containingDP, DR, andDO coding sequences, respectively, on the basis of sequence analysis. The porcine class II region appears very similar to that of man in number and nature of the class II genes identified and in the intron/exon organization of corresponding genes.The nucleotide sequence data reported in this paper have been submitted to the GenBank nucleotide sequence database and have been assigned the association number M29944.

A genomic cosmid library constructed from DNA from a genotyped individual (JF = HLA-A11, Cw–, B38/A26, Cw7, B51) was screened for clones containing class I histocompatibility genes. Among these clones, one was found to carry a 4.8 kb Hind III fragment which is highly correlated with HLA-A11. This clone was used to transfect LMTK+ cultured mouse fibroblast transformants expressing human beta-2 microglobulin. The human beta-2 microglobulin heavy chain-associated determinant was positively detected by the M18 monoclonal antibody. HLA-A11 expression on these doubly transformed cells was specifically demonstrated by complement-dependent cytotoxicity with HLA-A11 + A3-specific but not with HLA-A3-specific monoclonal antibodies. Absorption studies with human alloantisera confirmed the presence on these cells of HLA-A11 determinants and of cross-reacting determinants which absorbed anti-HLA-A1 and –A3 alloantisera. The JF5-J27 transfected cell expressed both heavy and light chains of human class I histocompatibility genes.Abbreviations used in this paper 2m

Hairy root cultures of Gentiana macrophylla were established by infecting the different explants four Agrobacterium rhizogenes strains namely A4GUS, R1000, LBA 9402 and ATCC11325, and hairy root lines were established with A. rhizogenes strain R1000 in 1/2 MS + B5 medium. Initially, 42 independent hairy root clones were maintained and seven clones belongs to different category were evaluated
for growth, morphology, integration and expression of Ri T-DNA genes, and alkaloid contents in dry root samples. On the basis
of total root elongation, lateral root density and biomass accumulation on solid media, hairy root clones were separated into
three categories. PCR and Southern hybridization analysis revealed both left and right T-DNA integration in the root clones
and RT-PCR analysis confirmed the expression of hairy root inducible gene. GUS assay was also performed to confirm the integration
of left T-DNA. The accumulation of considerable amounts of the root-specific secoiridoid glucosides gentiopicroside was observed
in GM1 ( and ) and the GM2 ( and DNA) type clones in considerably higher amount whether as two but callus-type clones (GM3) accumulated much less or only very negligible amounts of gentiopicroside. Out of four media composition
the 1/2 MS + B5 vitamin media was found most suitable. We found that initial establishment of root cultures largely depends on root:media ratio. Maximum growth rate was recorded in 1:50 root:media ratio. The maximum biomass in terms of fresh weight (33-fold) was achieved in 1/2 MS + B5 media composition after 35 days in comparison to sixfold increase in control. The biomass increase was most abundant maximum
from 15 to 30 days. Influence of A. rhizogenes strains and Ri plasmid of hairy root induction, the possible role of the TL-DNA and TR-DNA genes on growth pattern of hairy root, initial root inoculum:media ratio and effect of media composition is discussed. 相似文献

The HLA-D region of individuals with the DRw11, w52, DQw3 haplotype encodes multiple molecular products of three distinct subregions, DR, DP, and DQ. Since each molecule can carry multiple stimulatory epitopes, the repertoire of allogeneic T-cell responses to determinants of this haplotype can be quite large. In the present experiments, alloreactive cloned T-cell lines recognized six distinct epitopes associated with DRw11, DRw52, DQw3 haplotypes. Panel studies established that three epitopes were DRwll-like and three were DRw52-like. Blocking with monoclonal antibodies showed that two DRw11-like epitopes were carried by DR-subregion products and one DRwll-like epitope was carried by DQ-subregion molecules. DRw52-like epitopes were detected on separate DR subregion-encoded molecules. One of them carried both DRwl1-and DRw52-like epitopes, the other carried two of the DRw52-like epitopes. These epitopes, which represent functional units that trigger T-cell responses, can be detected at the present time only with the methods used in this report. Conventional allogeneic T-cell responses represent the summation of responses to multiple epitopes encoded by different D-subregion genes. 相似文献

Two isoenzymic forms of aspartate aminotransferase are present in the plant fraction of developing lupin root nodules. One of these forms, aspartate aminotransferase-P2 (AAT-P2), increases dramatically with the onset of biological nitrogen fixation and is associated with the assimilation of ammonia by the plant in the Rhizobium-legume symbiosis. A day 18 lupin nodule cDNA library in the ZapII vector was immunoscreened with a monoclonal antibody specific for AAT-P2 and yielded two near-full-length 1700 bp clones. These clones were sequenced. Amino acid sequences from three peptides derived from immunopurified AAT-P2 were aligned, and showed 100% homology with the amino acid sequence deduced from the cDNA clones. The DNA sequence showed 50% homology with AAT sequences from a range of animal sources. Conversion of the clones to the phagemid form allowed their expression in Escherichia coli where both exhibited enzyme activity that could be immunoprecipitated with AAT-P2-specific monoclonal antibodies. Western blot analysis revealed protein moieties with molecular masses of 39, 43, 45 and 55 kDa. The 5 end of the clones coded for a hydrophobic leader sequence of about 50 amino acids indicative of a targeting sequence and consistent with the plastid localisation of nodule AAT-P2. 相似文献

We detected restriction fragment length polymorphisms that distinguish the extended haplotype HLA-B8,DR3,SCO1 from HLA-B18,DR3,F1C30 at the DR beta and DQ beta loci with five of seven restriction endonucleases used. One set of restriction fragments was always found on HLA-B8,DR3,SCO1 and associated with DRw52a, while the other was present on HLA-B18, DR3,F1C30 and correlated with DRw52b (the gene encoding the subtype of DRw52 associated with the BO1 or LB-Q1 antigen). Furthermore, using a full-length DQ beta gene probe, we found division in the DQw2 haplotype, in which DQw2a always associated with HLA-B8, DR3,SCO1, while DQw2b always occurred with HLA-B18,DR3,F1C3O. Our evidence thus indicates that serologically defined HLA-DR3, HLA-DRw52, and HLA-DQw2 are each produced by two structurally very different sets of genes, one set occurring in HLA-B8, DR3,SCO1, and the other in HLA-B18,DR3,F1C30.Abbreviations used in this paper BSA

Narcolepsy has a 98% association with the DR2-Dw2/DQw1 haplotype. To establish if a disease-specific allele is present in narcolepsy, a cDNA library was made from a B-cell line from a DR2,4/DQw1,3 narcoleptic. Clones encoding the two expressed DR2
chains, along with DQw1 and chains, were isolated and completely sequenced. The coding regions of these four genes were similar to published nucleotide and protein sequences from corresponding healthy controls, with some minor exceptions. The 3 untranslated region of one of the DR2
genes in the narcoleptic was extended by 42 bp. Complete sequences were not available for DQw1.2 or from healthy individuals, but first domain nucleotide sequences showed only a single nonproductive difference in DQ. Partial protein sequences of both DQ and from published data were identical. Although the effects of minor differences cannot be ruled out completely, it is concluded that there are probably no narcolepsy-specific DR
or DQ / sequences, and that the alleles found in narcolepsy are representative of those found in the healthy population. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450rm was previously isolated from the basidiomycete yeast Rhodotorula minuta as a bifunctional enzyme with isobutene-forming and benzoate 4-hydroxylase activities. We cloned the gene and corresponding cDNA for P450rm in order to characterize the enzyme in the context of fungal phylogeny and physiology. From the cDNA sequence, P450rm was deduced to have 527 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 59 136. P450rm shared 48% amino acid sequence identity with CYP53A1 from Aspergillus niger, indicating that the gene belongs to a novel subfamily of CYP53, CYP53B. However, the organization of the P450rm gene, which has eight exons and seven introns, differed completely to that of CYP53A1. Northern analysis demonstrated that the level of P450rm mRNA expression increased when L-phenylalanine was used as sole carbon source. These results suggest that P450rm has been well conserved during the evolution of fungi as a benzoate 4-hydroxylase in the dissimilation pathway starting from L-phenylalanine 相似文献
