Novel restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) in inbred rats were revealed with the human N-ras gene as probe. Three fragments hybridizing to the probe were detected by Southern blot hybridization under highly stringent conditions, and one of the fragments showed variation in inbred rat strains. Furthermore, on hybridization under low-stringency conditions, an additional fragment hybridizing to the probe was observed, and this fragment also showed interstrain variation. These two variant fragments showed different distributions in 27 inbred rat strains and segregated in backcross progeny as codominant alleles of independent single autosomal loci. Therefore, the loci for these RFLPs were named Nras-1 and Nras-2, respectively. Analyses of linkages between the RFLPs and 11 other loci revealed that the Nras-2 locus was closely linked to the c locus (3.7 +/- 2.6%), which belongs to rat linkage group I.  相似文献

A rat cDNA clone encoding a portion of phosphate-activated glutaminase was used to identify DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) in sets of somatic cell hybrids and between wild-derived and inbred strains of mice. Segregation of rat and mouse chromosomes among somatic cell hybrids indicated assignment to rat chromosome 9 and mouse chromosome 1. Analysis of chromosome 1 alleles for several genes in an interspecific cross between Mus spretus and C3H/HeJ-gld/gld mice indicates that glutaminase can be positioned within 5.5 +/- 2.0 cM proximal to Ctla-4. Similarly, human-hamster somatic cell hybrids were examined for RFLPs, and four human EcoRI restriction fragments were found to hybridize with the rat glutaminase probe. Two of these restriction fragments cosegregated and mapped to human chromosome 2 in a region that is syntenic with mouse chromosome 1 and rat chromosome 9.  相似文献

A DNA polymorphism for the mouse retinol binding protein has been identified using the enzyme BamHI and a rat partial cDNA probe. Analysis of the polymorphism in DNA from 64 inbred mouse strains demonstrated the presence of a single gene with two alleles, Rbp-4b and Rbp-4d. Comparison of the segregation patterns of these alleles in three sets of recombinant inbred strains with allele segregation patterns of previously characterized loci shows that the Rbp-4 locus is closely linked to the locus for phenobarbital-inducible cytochrome P450-2c (Cyp-2c) that has been shown by in situ hybridization to lie on chromosome 19, bands D1-D2. The Rbp-4 locus is just proximal to Cyp-2c at the distal end of chromosome 19.  相似文献

Cloned cDNAs coding for eye-lens fibre cell-membrane proteins, MIP and MP70, were used to detect restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) in genomic DNA from inbred mice with autosomally inherited cataracts. Whereas distinct RFLPs associated with the MIP gene were identified in the Cba Cat and Nct mutants, no such genetic variation was associated with the MP70 gene. RFLPs associated with the mouse MIP gene may provide informative DNA markers in gene linkage studies of murine hereditary cataracts.  相似文献

Previous studies have indicated the importance of angiotensin II (ANG II) in skeletal muscle angiogenesis. The present study explored the effect of regulation of the renin gene on angiogenesis induced by electrical stimulation with the use of physiological, pharmacological, and genetic manipulations of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). Transfer of the entire chromosome 13, containing the physiologically regulated renin gene, from the normotensive inbred Brown Norway (BN) rat into the background of an inbred substrain of the Dahl salt-sensitive (SS/Mcwi) rat restored renin levels and the angiogenic response after electrical stimulation. This restored response was significantly attenuated when SS-13(BN)/Mcwi consomic rats were treated with lisinopril or high-salt diet. The role of ANG II on this effect was confirmed by the complete restoration of skeletal muscle angiogenesis in SS/Mcwi rats infused with subpressor doses of ANG II. Congenic strains derived from the SS-13(BN)/Mcwi consomic were used to further verify the role of the renin gene in this response. Microvessel density was markedly increased after stimulation in congenic strains that contained the renin gene from the BN rat (congenic lines A and D). This angiogenic response was suppressed in control strains that carried regions of the BN genome just above (congenic line C) or just below (congenic line B) the renin gene. The present study emphasizes the importance of maintaining normal renin regulation as well as ANG II levels during the angiogenesis process with a combination of physiological, genetic, and pharmacological manipulation of the RAS.  相似文献

The angiotensinogen gene is located on mouse chromosome 8   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
We have recently identified a cis-acting genetic lesion affecting angiotensinogen gene expression in testis and salivary gland. Accordingly, the angiotensinogen gene was assigned to mouse chromosome 8 by screening a series of hybrid cell lines for retention of mouse angiotensinogen sequences by genomic Southern analysis. In AKXD recombinant inbred mice, the angiotensinogen gene is 2.4 +/- 1.8 centiMorgan from Rn7S-8,a 7S RNA gene located on chromosome 8 (Taylor, B.A., personal communication). However, the segregation of salivary and testicular angiotensinogen expression phenotypes into inbred mouse strains was not concordant with the known chromosome 8 proviruses Emv-2, Mtv-21, Xmv-12 or Xmv-26.  相似文献

A novel restriction fragment length polymorphism in inbred rats was detected by Southern blot analysis with rat growth hormone cDNA as a probe. Four alleles, characterized by PstI fragments of 1.2, 1.1, 0.9, and 0.7 kb, respectively, were detected in 27 strains examined. The same distribution of polymorphisms was observed on digestion of DNAs of these strains with three other enzymes, PvuII, HindIII, and BamHI. Moreover, the same differences in length of allelic restriction fragments were obtained with these restriction enzymes as with PstI. These findings suggested that the polymorphism was caused by insertion or deletion of variable DNA segments in the second intron of the growth hormone gene. Linkage analyses using backcross progeny provided no evidence for close linkage between the restriction fragment length polymorphism locus and 10 other loci examined.  相似文献

Localization of the cryptdin locus on mouse chromosome 8   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
Cryptdin is a defensin-related peptide, and its mRNA accumulates to high abundance in epithelial cells of intestinal crypts beginning in the second week of postnatal development. The cryptdin (Defcr) locus was assigned to mouse chromosome 8 by Southern blotting of DNAs from mouse/hamster somatic hybrid cell lines. Analysis of somatic hybrid DNAs for mouse-specific restriction fragments showed zero discordance and perfect concordance with chromosome 8. The Defcr locus was localized on chromosome 8 by analysis of DNAs from recombinant inbred (RI) strains of mice after identification of three potential Defcr alleles based on restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) in inbred strains. The strain distribution patterns of the Defcr locus were compared with those of chromosome 8 markers in five panels of RI strains. Analysis of cosegregation of Defcr with xenotropic proviral locus Xmv-26 and additional loci confirmed the chromosomal assignment and showed that Defcr is on proximal chromosome 8 within approximately 6 (1.3 to 21.3) cM of Xmv-26. The mouse Defcr locus and the human defensin gene(s) located on chromosome 8p23 appear to map to homologous regions.  相似文献

Angiotensinogen is the precursor of the potent vasoactive peptide angiotensin II, and is therefore an important determinant of blood pressure and electrolyte homeostasis. In order to map the tissue-specific and inducible enhancer elements governing angiotensinogen gene expression in transgenic mice, we constructed minigenes containing either 0.75 kb or 4 kb or 5' flanking DNA from the BALB/c angiotensinogen gene. Sequences necessary and sufficient to mediate induction by glucocorticoids, oestrogen and bacterial endotoxin were contained on the minigene bearing 0.75 kb of DNA upstream of the capsite. This construct was also able to confer tissue specificity in the majority of organs producing angiotensinogen. In the testis and salivary gland, differences between the donor (BALB/c) and recipient (Swiss) strains were responsible for the apparently aberrant expression of the minigene constructs. The genetic lesion responsible for these expression polymorphisms has been characterized using recombinant inbred mice. An EcoRI restriction fragment length polymorphism which co-segregates with the angiotensinogen expression phenotypes into many inbred mouse strains is also described.  相似文献

Analysis of the growth hormone (GH) gene in 12 strains of White Leghorn chickens revealed restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) at three Msp I sites and at a Sac I site. Based on linkage disequilibrium analysis, they gave rise to eight different alleles (i.e. combinations of RFLPs), with five occurring at frequencies above 5% in at least one strain. Pairs of GH–RFLPs were at near maximal linkage disequilibrium, suggesting either a lack of recombination or the presence of selection pressure during evolution of the GH gene. Allele frequencies were determined in 12 non-inbred strains derived from three different genetic bases. These strains had been selected either for an array of egg production traits, resistance to Marek's disease or resistance to avian leukosis. Selection for disease resistance was consistently correlated with an increase in the frequency of one of the alleles. One strain segregated for only two alleles, which differed by three RFLPs. Analysis of variance in this strain indicated that the GH allele co-selected with resistance was associated with a delayed onset of ovulation but a higher persistency of ovulation as age progressed, resulting in an overall increase of egg production by 15% (age at first egg to 497 days). The resistance-associated GH allele was dominant for the onset of ovulation and recessive for the persistency of egg production. There was no significant effect of the GH genotype on juvenile body weight, egg weight or egg specific gravity.  相似文献

Two spontaneous mutant beige rats, with phenotypes resembling human Chediak- Higashi syndrome (CHS), were found independently in two inbred strains. Both beige mutations were identified to be recessive alleles in the Lyst locus on rat chromosome 17 and the alleles were denoted Lyst(bg) and Lyst(bg-Kyo). As it is almost impossible to discriminate these mutations phenotypically, we developed an allele-specific genotyping method for the Lyst gene. The nested PCR amplification was followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis. By this method, we could discriminate the mutant Lyst(bg), Lyst(bg-Kyo) alleles, and the normal Lyst allele, easily and accurately.  相似文献

The genetic linkage of Chediak-Higashi syndrome and its murine analog, beige (bg), to the T-cell receptor (TCR-gamma) gamma chain gene is further defined. Previous studies using recombinant inbred strains of mice demonstrated that the murine bg gene is genetically linked to a murine TCR-gamma gene. We report that in the mouse the frequency of recombination between these two markers is 0.025. Further, we tested the hypothesis that these two genes are linked in the human genome by analyzing restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) in five families with children afflicted with Chediak-Higashi syndrome. In three families, RFLPs in TCR-gamma genes were inherited discordantly from Chediak-Higashi syndrome, demonstrating nonlinkage. We postulate that there is an evolutionary chromosomal breakpoint between the bg gene and the TCR-gamma gene.  相似文献

DNAs from different strains of inbred mice and feral Mus spretus were found to exhibit restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) when hybridized with a probe prepared from a c-DNA clone of the mouse alpha-spectrin (Spna-1) gene. Studies of five recombinant inbred strains and (C57BL/6 X M. spretus) F1 X C57BL/6 backcross mice demonstrated that these RFLPs were allelic and that Spna-1 is closely linked to Ly-9 and Ly-17 on the distal region of chromosome 1.  相似文献

Mouse and human cDNA clones encoding the T-cell and mast cell growth factor P40, now designated IL-9, were used to identify DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) in sets of somatic cell hybrids and between inbred strains of mice and interspecific backcross progeny. Segregation of mouse and human chromosomes among somatic cell hybrids indicated a location on mouse chromosome 13 and human chromosome 5. RFLPs were identified among inbred strains of mice. Analysis of chromosome 13 alleles for Tcrg, Dhfr, and Il-9 in an interspecific cross between Mus musculus and NFS/N or C58/J mice indicates that IL-9 is distal to Tcrg and Proximal to Dhfr.  相似文献

Angiotensinogen is cleaved by renin and angiotensin-converting enzyme to liberate the potent vasocontrictor peptide angiotensin II. We have recently identified a cis-acting genetic lesion associated with high levels of angiotensinogen mRNA in the testis and salivary gland of Swiss mice. To determine the molecular basis of this mutation, the Swiss angiotensinogen gene was cloned, and its structure was compared to that from a low-expressing strain (BALB/c). I show that a retrovirus-like element belonging to the intracisternal A-particle gene family has been inserted 9 kb upstream from the cap site of the Swiss angiotensinogen gene. This intracisternal A-particle, named IAP-Agt, segregated concordantly with angiotensinogen expression phenotypes in CXB recombinant inbred mice. However, genomic Southern analysis showed that IAP-Agt was present in some, but not all, inbred laboratory mouse strains displaying high levels of angiotensinogen gene expression. On the basis of this evolutionary evidence, it is unlikely that IAP-Agt is the cause of the angiotensinogen mutation. It is intriguing that Ren-2, the duplicated mouse renin gene, is expressed to high levels in the male salivary gland and also contains a transposed intracisternal A-particle genome.  相似文献

A minisatellite sequence in the first intron of the rat renin gene showed five-allelic polymorphism in 11 inbred rat strains. A new allelic variant, which was thought to be generated in the germ line, was observed in 136 animals of two sets of backcross progenies originating from parental strains with different alleles. These facts suggested that the minisatellite is genetically unstable. A linkage analysis using the backcross progenies confirmed the assignment of renin locus (REN) on linkage group (LG) X at a site between FH (fumarate hydratase) and PEPC (peptidase) loci. Fluorescence in situ hybridization allowed mapping of the renin gene on rat chromosome 13q13.  相似文献

Isozyme and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analyses of backcross progeny, recombinant inbred strains, and congenic strains of mice positioned eight genetic markers with respect to the Lsh-Ity-Bcg disease resistance locus. Allelic isoforms of Idh-1 and Pep-3 and RFLPs detected by Southern hybridization for Myl-1, Cryg, Vil, Achrg, bcl-2, and Ren-1,2, between BALB/cAnPt and DBA/2NPt mice, were utilized to examine the cosegregation of these markers with the Lsh-Ity-Bcg resistance phenotype in 103 backcross progeny. An additional 47 backcross progeny from a cross between C57BL/10ScSn and B10.L-Lshr/s mice were examined for the cosegregation of Myl-1 and Vil RFLPs with Lsh phenotypic differences. Similarly, BXD recombinant inbred strains were typed for RFLPs upon hybridization with Vil and Achrg. Recombination frequencies generated in the different test systems were statistically similar, and villin (Vil) was identified as the molecular marker closest (1.7 +/- 0.8 cM) to the Lsh-Ity-Bcg locus. Two other DNA sequences, nebulin (Neb) and an anonymous DNA fragment (D2S3), which map to a region of human chromosome 2q that is homologous to proximal mouse chromosome 1, were not closely linked to the Lsh-Ity-Bcg locus. This multipoint linkage analysis of chromosome 1 surrounding the Lsh-Ity-Bcg locus provides a basis for the eventual isolation of the disease gene.  相似文献

Molecular cloning of the mouse angiotensinogen gene   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7  
We describe here the cloning, restriction mapping, and sequencing of the mouse angiotensinogen gene. The 5' flanking region contains consensus sequences for several hormone-responsive elements and viral-like enhancers within 750 bp of the cap site. The deduced amino acid sequence shows 87% identity with rat angiotensinogen, but there is a discrepancy in the number of cysteine residues in the mature protein among rat (n = 3), human (n = 4), and mouse (n = 4). Because angiotensinogen is homologous to other members of the serine protease inhibitor family, we aligned the putative reactive center of angiotensinogens from various species. This alignment shows that the inhibitor site in human angiotensinogen is different from its rodent counterpart, but the role of this sequence divergence in the pathogenesis of human disease remains to be established.  相似文献
