Four molecular clones containing DNA homologous to the Rous sarcoma virus transforming gene (src) have been isolated from a random library of normal chicken DNA. The four clones are distinct overlapping isolates, which together span approximately 33 kb of cellular DNA. The cloned locus appears to represent the major region of chicken DNA homologous to src, since src-containing restriction fragments of this locus account for the fragments detected by hybridization of src-specific probe to restriction digests of total chicken DNA. Analysis of the cloned chicken src locus by restriction and heteroduplex mapping indicates that the locus contains 1.6-1.9 kb of DNA homologous to the viral src gene. The chicken DNA sequences homologous to viral src are interrupted by five or six nonhomologous regions, totaling approximately 6 kb, which presumably represent introns in the cellular src gene. 相似文献

The organization and sequence of the rat preprolactin gene has been investigated. Analysis of two different plasmids containing pituitary cDNA inserts has provided the complete 681-nucleotide coding sequence of preprolactin as well as 17 nucleotides preceding the initiation codon and 90 nucleotides following the termination codon. Digestion of rat chromosomal DNA with the restriction endonuclease Eco RI followed by size fractionation and hybridization to a labeled prolactin cDNA probe has demonstrated that prolactin genomic sequences are located on 6.0-, 3.9-, and 2.9-kilobase fragments. The 6.0- and 3.9-kilobase fragments were isolated from a library of cloned rat DNA fragments. The sequence of more than 1800 nucleotides of the cloned DNA has been determined. The sequenced region contains coding regions of 180 and 189 nucleotides which specify the COOH-terminal 123 amino acids of the 227-amino-acid sequence of rat preprolactin. These coding regions are separated by an intervening sequence of 597 nucleotides. At least one other large intervening sequence separates this region from the region coding for the NH2-terminal portion of preprolactin. Hybridization experiments suggested that the intervening sequences of the rat prolactin gene contain DNA sequences which are repeated elsewhere in the rat genome. 相似文献

Restriction fragment analysis of duplication of the fourth component of complement (C4A) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The two genes encoding the fourth component of complement (C4A and C4B) reside between HLA-B and HLA-DR on human chromosome 6. Two kilobases downstream from each C4 gene lies a 21-hydroxylase gene (CA21HA and CA21HB, respectively). Utilizing the method of Southern blotting and a 5'-end 2.4-kb BamHI/KpnI fragment of the C4 cDNA, we have analyzed TaqI-digested DNA from four pedigrees with one or more extended haplotypes containing a C4A duplication, as demonstrated by protein electrophoresis and segregation analysis. Two C4A protein duplications (C4A*2,A*3,C4B*QO and C4A*3,A*5,C4B*QO) segregated with two large TaqI DNA restriction fragments (7.0 and 6.0). In pedigree Fi, one individual homozygous for HLA-A3,B35,C4,DR1,DQ1,BFF,C2C,-C4A2,3,C4BQO had TaqI 7.0- and 6.0-kb restriction fragments with equal hybridization intensities as measured by two-dimensional densitometry (7.0/6.0 kb = 0.83, SD = 0.12, N = 7). A hybridization probe for the 21-hydroxylase gene also demonstrated equal gene dosage (CA21HA/CA21HB = 1.01). DNA from another individual (Ma I-2) with a different C4A gene duplication (C4A*3,A*5,C4B*QO) also had equal densitometry measurements (7.0/6.0 kb = 1.07). We conclude that two extended haplotypes from unrelated pedigrees have two C4 genes and both C4 genes encode separate C4A alleles. These findings are compatible with a gene conversion event of C4B to C4A. 相似文献

Summary By homogenizing rice leaves in liquid nitrogen, it was possible to isolate intact chloroplasts and, subsequently, pure rice chloroplast DNA from the purified chloroplasts. The DNA was digested by several restriction enzymes and fragments were fractionated by agarose gel electrophoresis. The sum of the fragment sizes generated by the restriction enzymes showed that the total length of the DNA is 130 kb. A circular physical map of fragments, generated by digestion with SalI, PstI, and PvuII, has been constructed. The circular DNA contains two inverted repeats of about 20 kb separated by a large, single copy region of about 75 kb and a short, single copy region of about 15 kb. The location of the gene for the large subunit of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (Fraction I protein) and the 32 KD photosystem II reaction center gene were determined by using as probes tobacco chloroplast DNAs containing these genes. Rice chloroplast DNA differs from chloroplast DNAs of wheat and corn as well as from dicot chloroplast DNAs by having the 32 KD gene located 20 kb removed from the end of an inverted repeat instead of close to the end, as in other plants. 相似文献

Four restriction endonucleases, AseI (5'-ATTAAT), SpeI (5'-ACTAGT), DraI (5'-TTTAAA), and SnaBI (5'-TACGTA), generated DNA fragments of suitable size distributions for mapping the genome of Rhodobacter sphaeroides by transverse alternating field electrophoresis. AseI produced 17 fragments, ranging in size from 3 to 1,105 kilobases (kb), SpeI yielded 16 fragments (12 to 1,645 kb), DraI yielded at least 25 fragments (6 to 800 kb), and SnaBI generated 10 fragments (12 to 1,225 kb). A total genome size of approximately 4,400 +/- 112 kb was determined by summing the fragment lengths in each of the digests generated by using the different restriction endonucleases. The total genomic DNA consisted of chromosomal DNA (3,960 +/- 112 kb) and the five endogenous plasmids (approximately 450 kb total) whose cognate DNA fragments have been unambiguously identified. A number of genes have been physically mapped to the AseI-generated restriction endonuclease fragments of total genomic DNA by Southern hybridization analysis with either homologous or heterologous specific gene probes or, in the case of several auxotrophic and pigment-biosynthetic mutants apparently generated by Tn5, a Tn5-specific probe. Other genes have been mapped by a comparison with wild-type patterns of the electrophoretic banding patterns of the AseI-digested genomic DNA derived from mutants generated by the insertion of either kanamycin or spectinomycin-streptomycin resistance cartridges. The relative orientations, distance, and location of the pufBALMX, puhA, cycA, and pucBA operons have also been determined, as have been the relative orientations between prkB and hemT and between prkA and the fbc operon. 相似文献

Unusual restriction fragments were detected by DNA blot hybridization with PCNA (DNA polymerase-delta auxiliary protein) probe in one of seven cases of congenital malformations. Chromosomal in situ hybridization localized PCNA gene to region q31-35 of human chromosome 2. To discover the locus more closely associated with congenital malformations, a cloned DNA segment which has been mapped to chromosomal region 2q33-36 was tested for restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) in these patients. The 2q33-36 probe hybridized with 2.1-kb, 1.9-kb and 1.7-kb fragments in ten normal control samples. In seven cases of congenital malformations examined, however, the band of 2.1 kb is absent in six cases and the band of 1.7 kb in one case. These results indicate that the locus closely linked to congenital malformations is present in the proximity of PCNA locus. 相似文献

Double-stranded DNA was synthesized from delta-crystallin mRNA prepared from lens fibers of 15-day-old chick embryos and cloned at the Pst I site of the plasmid pBR322. Using the cloned cDNA and single-stranded cDNA as hybridization probes, a number of genomic DNA fragments containing delta-crystallin gene sequences have been cloned from the partial and complete EcoRI digests of chick brain DNA. One of the clones from the partial digests contains a DNA fragment that consists of four EcoRI fragments of 7.6 kb, 4.0 kb, 2.6 kb, and 0.8 kb. The gene sequences reside in the (5')7.6 kb - 0.8 kb - 4.0 kb (3') fragments. Electron microscopy has provided evidence that the cloned DNA fragment includes the entire gene sequences complementary to delta-crystallin mRNA except for the 3' terminal poly(A) tail, and that the delta-crystallin gene is interrupted by at least 13 intervening sequences. Another clone contains a genomic fragment that consists of two EcoRI fragments of 3.0 kb and 11 kb. The DNA fragment in the latter clone represents a different delta-crystallin gene, as judged by restriction endonuclease mapping and by electron microscopy. 相似文献

A method to enrich large size DNA fragments obtained by digestion with rare cutting restriction endonucleases was developed and applied for the isolation of a 150 kb SfiI fragment containing the beta-globin gene cluster. The digested DNA is rendered single stranded at the ends by diffusing a strand specific exonuclease into an agarose plug containing DNA. The plug is melted and solution hybridization is then performed with a bridge RNA containing specific sequences from the end of a desired fragment linked to a common probe sequence. The common probe sequence is annealed to a biotinylated RNA and the resulting tripartite hybrid is retained onto a solid matrix containing avidin and specifically released by ribonuclease action. Enrichments of greater than 350 fold have been achieved consistently. Such directed purification of large DNA fragments without cloning can considerably expedite mapping and gene localization in a complex genome and facilitate the construction of sublibraries from defined regions of the genome. 相似文献

A cosmid clone containing the entire hCG beta gene cluster has been isolated. The restriction map of this clone has been determined by an indirect-end-label FIGE (field inversion gel electrophoresis) method. Analysis of this cosmid clone shows that there are 6 hCG beta genes in human genomic DNA. A previously uncloned portion of the hCG beta cluster, termed the "gap" region, has been shown not to contain any sequences homologous to the hCG beta cDNA. The restriction mapping method employed in this study takes advantage of the superior resolution of FIGE for high molecular weight DNA fragments in the size range 15-50 kb. This method is broadly applicable and permits rapid and accurate restriction mapping for extended regions of genomic DNA that have been cloned into cosmid or lambda vectors. 相似文献

All but one of the PstI restriction fragments from mung bean, pea, and spinach chloroplast DNAs have been stably cloned into pBR322. Large fragments (15-54 kb) were cloned at low efficiencies which decreased with increasing fragment length. However, plasmids containing fragments above 25-30 kb were too unstable to be useful. In particular, pBR322 derivatives containing the largest mung bean and spinach fragments (34 kb and 54 kb, respectively) are extremely unstable and rapidly delete parts of the plasmid sequence. The PstI fragments of mung bean chloroplast DNA which cover the 34-kb PstI fragment have been cloned into pACYC177. After a search of several thousand recombinants we were unable to recover a clone containing a 12.2-kb pea chloroplast PstI fragment and suggest that some property of its sequence may be inimical to the cloning process. The identity of the cloned fragments to native chloroplast DNA restriction fragments is demonstrated by restriction analysis and the ability to construct detailed restriction maps of the mung bean and pea chloroplast genomes. 相似文献

Chromosomal scaffold-associated DNA has been isolated from pea leaf nuclei treated with lithium diiodosalicylate to remove histones and then digested with restriction enzymes to remove the DNA in chromosomal loops. A scaffold-associated region (SAR) of DNA has been identified 8 to 9 kb downstream of the single-copy pea plastocyanin gene in proximity to a repetitive sequence present in 300 copies in the pea haploid genome. Isolated restriction fragments from within the SAR can bind to scaffold preparations in a binding assay in vitro. The nucleotide sequence of the SAR indicates a 540-bp 77% A+T-rich region containing many sequence elements in common with SARs from other organisms. Sequences with homology to topoisomerase II binding sites, A-box and T-box sequences, and replication origins are present within this AT-rich region. 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

Cloning, nucleotide sequence, and expression of the flavodoxin gene from Desulfovibrio vulgaris (Hildenborough) 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The gene coding for the flavodoxin protein from Desulfovibrio vulgaris (Hildenborough) has been identified, cloned, and sequenced. DNA fragments containing the flavodoxin gene were identified by hybridization of a mixed synthetic heptadecanucleotide probe to Southern blots of SalI-digested genomic DNA. The nucleotide sequences of the probe were derived from the published protein primary structure (Dubourdieu, M., LeGall, J., and Fox, J. L. (1973) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 52, 1418-1425). The same oligonucleotide probe was used to screen libraries (in pUC19) containing size-selected SalI fragments. One recombinant, carrying a 1.6-kilobase (kb) insert which strongly hybridizes to the probe, was found to contain a nucleotide sequence which codes for the first 104 residues of the amino-terminal portion of the flavodoxin protein sequence but lacked the remainder of the gene. Therefore, a PstI restriction fragment from this clone was used as a probe to isolate the entire gene from a partial Sau3AI library in Charon 35. Of the plaques which continued to hybridize strongly to this probe through repeated screenings, one recombinant, containing a 16-kb insert, was further characterized. The entire flavodoxin gene was localized within a 1.4-kb XhoI-SacI fragment of this clone. The complete nucleotide sequence of the structural gene for the flavodoxin protein from Desulfovibrio vulgaris and flanking sequences which may include promoter and regulatory sequences are reported here. The cloned flavodoxin gene was placed behind the hybrid tac promoter for overexpression of the protein in Escherichia coli. Modification to the 5'-end of the gene, including substitutions at the second codon, were required to obtain high levels of expression. The expressed recombinant flavodoxin protein is isolated from E. coli cells as the holoprotein with physical and spectral properties similar to the protein isolated from D. vulgaris. To our knowledge, this is the first example of the expression of a foreign flavodoxin gene in E. coli using recombinant DNA methods. 相似文献

The usefulness of genomic physical maps is greatly enhanced by linkage of the physical map with the genetic map. We describe a ``macrorestriction mapping' procedure for Caenorhabditis elegans that we have applied to this endeavor. High molecular weight, genomic DNA is digested with infrequently cutting restriction enzymes and size-fractionated by pulsed field gel electrophoresis. Southern blots of the gels are probed with clones from the C. elegans physical map. This procedure allows the construction of restriction maps covering several hundred kilobases and the detection of polymorphic restriction fragments using probes that map several hundred kilobases away. We describe several applications of this technique. (1) We determined that the amount of DNA in a previously uncloned region is <220 kb. (2) We mapped the mes-1 gene to a cosmid, by detecting polymorphic restriction fragments associated with a deletion allele of the gene. The 25-kb deletion was initially detected using as a probe sequences located ~400 kb away from the gene. (3) We mapped the molecular endpoint of the deficiency hDf6, and determined that three spontaneously derived duplications in the unc-38-dpy-5 region have very complex molecular structures, containing internal rearrangements and deletions. 相似文献

In order to further characterize the cDNA clones, pSv-1 and pSv-2, which had been newly isolated from a cDNA library of intact rat seminal vesicles as clones hybridizing to androgen-stimulated mRNAs of approximately 1,500 and 3,500 nucleotides in length, respectively, the whole nucleotide sequences were determined. The pSv-1 and pSv-2 were 1135 and 1819 nucleotides in length, respectively, and seemed not to contain entire sequences corresponding to the mRNAs. When the 0.7 kb HindIII fragments from pSv-1 and the 1 kb fragments from pSv-2 were used to probe rat genomic DNA that had been digested with four restriction enzymes, the Southern blots suggested the existence of multiple genes related to pSv-1 and a single gene related to pSv-2. These results suggest that pSv-1 and pSv-2 provide useful probes not only for further characterization of products encoded by the mRNAs, but also for the study on the physiological roles of androgen-dependent gene expression in rat seminal vesicles. 相似文献

Cellular DNAs from a panel of 20 unrelated individuals were screened for restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) with a DNA probe containing the first exon of the proopiomelanocortin gene (POMC), which has been assigned to chromosome 2p23-25. Digestion with the restriction endonuclease Sst 1 revealed a high frequency RFLP. The two alleles that were found are fragments of 10- and 15-kilobase (kb) length and are in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with frequencies of 72.6% and 27.4%, respectively. Informative families were tested for linkage between POMC/Sst 1 RFLP and other polymorphic markers of chromosome 2. Linkage was excluded to AcP-1 (2p23-25) at 15% recombination, which is still consistent with the chromosomal assignments for these genes. The close physical linkage (10 kb) of the polymorphic locus to the POMC gene makes this RFLP a suitable marker for future linkage studies involving the POMC gene. 相似文献

DNA polymorphism in the 5′ flanking region of the human carbonic anhydrase II gene on chromosome 8 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Summary A restriction-fragment-length polymorphism (RFLP) is described which is associated with the human carbonic anhydrase II gene (CA2) that codes for one of the three genetically distinct carbonic anhydrase isozymes, CA I, CA II, and CA III. The isolated DNA was cleaved with several restriction enzymes and subjected to Southern blot hybridization analysis using a DNA probe containing the 5 end of the human CA II gene. A two allele RFLP which was detected with the restriction endonuclease, Taq I, is expressed phenotypically on Southern blots as either a 5.4 kilobase (kb) fragment or as 4.0 and 1.4 kb fragments. These fragments result from the presence or absence of a Taq I recognition site in the 5 flanking region approximately 1.0kb from the initiation codon of the CA II gene. Segregation analysis showed that the alleles are inherited in a Mendelian fashion, with a frequency of 50%. 相似文献

We describe a compilation of 79 known genes of Bradyrhizobium japonicum 110, 63 of which were placed on a correlated physical and genetic map of the chromosome. Genomic DNA was restricted with enzymes PacI, PmeI, and SwaI, which yielded two, five, and nine fragments, respectively. Linkage of some of the fragments was established by performing Southern blot hybridization experiments. For probes we used isolated, labelled fragments that were produced either by PmeI or by SwaI. Genes were mapped on individual restriction fragments by performing gene-directed mutagenesis. The principle of this method was to introduce recognition sites for all three restriction enzymes mentioned above into or very near the desired gene loci. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of restricted mutant DNA then resulted in an altered fragment pattern compared with wild-type DNA. This allowed us to identify overlapping fragments and to determine the exact position of any selected gene locus. The technique was limited only by the accuracy of the fragment size estimates. After linkage of all of the restriction fragments we concluded that the B. japonicum genome consists of a single, circular chromosome that is approximately 8,700 kb long. Genes directly concerned with nodulation and symbiotic nitrogen fixation are clustered in a chromosomal section that is about 380 kb long. 相似文献

Isolation and characterization of beta- and gamma-crystallin genes from rat genomic cosmid libraries 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Two libraries, together containing about 10(6) colonies, have been constructed by cloning different size fractions of a partial Sau3A digest of rat genomic DNA in the cosmid vector pTM. Upon screening with two cDNA clones, one containing alpha A2-crystallin and one containing beta B1-crystallin sequences, 14 cosmid clones were isolated which were beta B1-crystallin-specific; none was found which contained alpha A2-crystallin sequences. The inserts of the beta B1 clones, which range from 35 to 45 kb in length, contain overlapping DNA segments covering more than 60 kb of rat genomic DNA. The composite BamHI restriction map of this region shows a single beta B1-crystallin gene, which is interrupted by several intronic sequences. Five recombinants hybridizing with two different rat lens gamma-crystallin cDNA clones were also isolated from these libraries. Four of these contain 31- to 41-kb inserts, whereas the fifth recombinant contains a 12.2-kb insert. Hybridization analysis with 5' and 3'-specific cDNA fragments indicates that altogether these inserts contain six gamma-crystallin genes, three of which are located on one insert of only 31 kb. 相似文献
