Existing bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) vectors were modified to have unique EcoRI cloning sites. This provided an additional site for generating representative libraries from genomic DNA digested with
a variety of enzymes. A BAC library of lettuce was constructed following the partial digestion of genomic DNA with HindIII or EcoRI. Several experimental parameters were investigated and optimized. The BAC library of over 50,000 clones, representing one
to two genome equivalents, was constructed from six ligations; average insert sizes for each ligation varied between 92.5
and 142 kb with a combined average insert size of 111 kb. The library was screened with markers linked to disease resistance
genes; this identified 134 BAC clones from four regions containing resistance genes. Hybridization with low-copy genomic sequences
linked to resistance genes detected fewer clones than expected from previous estimates of genome size. The lack of hybridization
to chloroplast and mitochondrial sequences demonstrated that the library was predominantly composed of nuclear DNA. The unique
EcoRI site in the BAC vector should allow the integration of BAC cloning with other technologies that utilize EcoRI digestion, such as AFLPTM markers and RecA-assisted restriction endonuclease (RARE) cleavage, to clone specific large EcoRI fragments from genomic DNA.

A bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library containing a large genomlc DNA insert is an important tool for genome physical mapping, map-based cloning, and genome sequencing. To Isolate genes via a map-based cloning strategy and to perform physical mapping of the cotton genome, a high-quality BAC library containing large cotton DNA Inserts Is needed. We have developed a BAC library of the restoring line 0-613-2R for Isolating the fertility restorer (Rf1) gene and genomic research in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). The BAC library contains 97 825 clones stored In 255 pieces of a 384-well mlcrotiter plate. Random samples of BACs digested with the Notl enzyme Indicated that the average Insert size Is approximately 130 kb, with a range of 80-275 kb, and 95.7% of the BAC clones in the library have an average insert size larger than 100 kb. Based on a cotton genome size of 2 250 Mb, library coverage is 5.7 × haploid genome equivalents. Four clones were selected randomly from the library to determine the stability of the BAC clones. There were no different fingerprints for 0 and 100 generations of each clone digested with Notl and Hlndiii enzymes. Thus, the atabiiity of a single BAC clone can be sustained at iesat for 100 generations. Eight simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers flanking the Rf; gene were chosen to screen the BAC library by pool using PCR method and 25 positive clones were identified with 3.1 positive clones per SSR marker. 相似文献

Background
Cattle are important agriculturally and relevant as a model organism. Previously described genetic and radiation hybrid (RH) maps of the bovine genome have been used to identify genomic regions and genes affecting specific traits. Application of these maps to identify influential genetic polymorphisms will be enhanced by integration with each other and with bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) libraries. The BAC libraries and clone maps are essential for the hybrid clone-by-clone/whole-genome shotgun sequencing approach taken by the bovine genome sequencing project.Results
A bovine BAC map was constructed with HindIII restriction digest fragments of 290,797 BAC clones from animals of three different breeds. Comparative mapping of 422,522 BAC end sequences assisted with BAC map ordering and assembly. Genotypes and pedigree from two genetic maps and marker scores from three whole-genome RH panels were consolidated on a 17,254-marker composite map. Sequence similarity allowed integrating the BAC and composite maps with the bovine draft assembly (Btau3.1), establishing a comprehensive resource describing the bovine genome. Agreement between the marker and BAC maps and the draft assembly is high, although discrepancies exist. The composite and BAC maps are more similar than either is to the draft assembly.Conclusion
Further refinement of the maps and greater integration into the genome assembly process may contribute to a high quality assembly. The maps provide resources to associate phenotypic variation with underlying genomic variation, and are crucial resources for understanding the biology underpinning this important ruminant species so closely associated with humans. 相似文献4.
Gene identification in a complex chromosomal continuum by local genomic cross-referencing 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Zoya Avramova Alexander Tikhonov Phillip SanMiguel Young-Kwan Jin Changnong Liu Sung-Sick Woo Rod A. Wing Jeffrey L. Bennetzen 《The Plant journal : for cell and molecular biology》1996,10(6):1163-1168
Most higher plants have complex genomes containing large quantities of repetitive DNA interspersed with low-copy-number sequences. Many of these repetitive DNAs are mobile and have homology to RNAs in various cell types. This can make it difficult to identify the genes in a long chromosomal continuum. It was decided to use genic sequence conservation and grass genome co-linearity as tools for gene identification. A bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clone containing sorghum genomic DNA was selected using a maize Adh1 probe. The 165 kb sorghum BAC was tested for hybridization to a set of clones representing the contiguous 280 kb of DNA flanking maize Adh1. None of the repetitive maize DNAs hybridized, but most of the low-copy-number sequences did. A low-copy-number sequence that did cross-hybridize was found to be a gene, while one that did not was found to be a low-copy-number retrotransposon that was named Reina. Regions of cross-hybridization were co-linear between the two genomes, but closer together in the smaller sorghum genome. These results indicate that local genomic cross-referencing by hybridization of orthologous clones can be an efficient and rapid technique for gene identification and studies of genome organization. 相似文献

Background
The genome of classical laboratory strains of mice is an artificial mosaic of genomes originated from several mouse subspecies with predominant representation (>90%) of the Mus m. domesticus component. Mice of another subspecies, East European/Asian Mus m. musculus, can interbreed with the classical laboratory strains to generate hybrids with unprecedented phenotypic and genotypic variations. To study these variations in depth we prepared the first genomic large insert BAC library from an inbred strain derived purely from the Mus m. musculus-subspecies. The library will be used to seek and characterize genomic sequences controlling specific monogenic and polygenic complex traits, including modifiers of dominant and recessive mutations.Results
A representative mouse genomic BAC library was derived from a female mouse of the PWD/Ph inbred strain of Mus m. musculus subspecies. The library consists of 144 768 primary clones from which 97% contain an insert of 120 kb average size. The library represents an equivalent of 6.7 × mouse haploid genome, as estimated from the total number of clones carrying genomic DNA inserts and from the average insert size. The clones were arrayed in duplicates onto eight high-density membranes that were screened with seven single-copy gene probes. The individual probes identified four to eleven positive clones, corresponding to 6.9-fold coverage of the mouse genome. Eighty-seven BAC-ends of PWD/Ph clones were sequenced, edited, and aligned with mouse C57BL/6J (B6) genome. Seventy-three BAC-ends displayed unique hits on B6 genome and their alignment revealed 0.92 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) per 100 bp. Insertions and deletions represented 0.3% of the BAC end sequences.Conclusion
Analysis of the novel genomic library for the PWD/Ph inbred strain demonstrated coverage of almost seven mouse genome equivalents and a capability to recover clones for specific regions of PWD/Ph genome. The single nucleotide polymorphism between the strains PWD/Ph and C57BL/6J was 0.92/100 bp, a value significantly higher than between classical laboratory strains. The library will serve as a resource for dissecting the phenotypic and genotypic variations between mice of the Mus m. musculus subspecies and classical laboratory mouse strains. 相似文献6.

Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis is a gram-positive bacterium that causes caseous lymphadenitis in sheep and goats. However, despite the economic losses caused by caseous lymphadenitis, there is little information about the molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis of this bacterium. Genomic libraries constructed in bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) vectors have become the method of choice for clone development in high-throughput genomic-sequencing projects. Large-insert DNA libraries are useful for isolation and characterization of important genomic regions and genes. In order to identify targets that might be useful for genome sequencing, we constructed a C. pseudotuberculosis BAC library in the vector pBeloBAC11. This library contains about 18,000 BAC clones, with inserts ranging in size from 25 to 120 kb, theoretically representing a 390-fold coverage of the C. pseudotuberculosis genome (estimated to be 2.5-3.1 Mb). Many genomic survey sequences (GSSs) with homology to C. diphtheriae, C. glutamicum, C. efficiens, and C. jeikeium proteins were observed within a sample of 215 sequenced clones, confirming their close phylogenetic relationship. Computer analyses of GSSs did not detect chimeric, deleted, or rearranged BAC clones, showing that this library has low redundancy. This GSSs collection is now available for further genetic and physical analysis of the C. pseudotuberculosis genome. The GSS strategy that we used to develop our library proved to be efficient for the identification of genes and will be an important tool for mapping, assembly, comparative, and functional genomic studies in a C. pseudotuberculosis genome sequencing project that will begin this year. 相似文献

Two plant-transformation-competent large-insert binary clone bacterial artificial chromosome (hereafter BIBAC) libraries were previously constructed for soybean cv. Forrest, using BamHI or HindIII. However, they are not well suited for clone-based genomic sequencing due to their larger ratio of vector to insert size (27.6 kbp:125 kbp). Therefore, we developed a larger-insert bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library for the genotype in a smaller vector (pECBAC1), using EcoRI. The BAC library contains 38,400 clones; about 99.1% of the clones have inserts; the average insert size is 157 kbp; and the ratio of vector to insert size is much smaller (7.5 kbp:157 kbp). Colony hybridization with probes derived from several chloroplast and mitochondrial genes showed that 0.89% and 0.45% of the clones were derived from the chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes, respectively. Considering these data, the library represents 5.4 haploid genomes of soybean. The library was hybridized with six RFLP marker probes, 5S rDNA and 18S-5.8S-25S rDNA, respectively. Each RFLP marker hybridized to about six clones, and the 5S and 18S-5.8S-25S rDNA probes collectively hybridized to 402 BACs—about 1.05% of the clones in the library. The BAC library complements the existing soybean Forrest BIBAC libraries by using different restriction enzymes and vector systems. Together, the BAC and BIBAC libraries encompass 13.2 haploid genomes, providing the most comprehensive clone resource for a single soybean genotype for public genome research. We show that the BAC library has enhanced the development of the soybean whole-genome physical map and use of three complementary BAC libraries improves genome physical mapping by fingerprint analysis of most of the clones of the library. The rDNA-containing clones were also fingerprinted to evaluate the feasibility of constructing contig maps of the rDNA regions. It was found that physical maps for the rDNA regions could not be readily constructed by fingerprint analysis, using one or two restriction enzymes. Additional data to fingerprints and/or different fingerprinting methods are needed to build contig maps for such highly tandem repetitive regions and thus, the physical map of the entire soybean genome. 相似文献

We have developed an automated, high-throughput fingerprinting technique for large genomic DNA fragments suitable for the construction of physical maps of large genomes. In the technique described here, BAC DNA is isolated in a 96-well plate format and simultaneously digested with four 6-bp-recognizing restriction endonucleases that generate 3' recessed ends and one 4-bp-recognizing restriction endonuclease that generates a blunt end. Each of the four recessed 3' ends is labeled with a different fluorescent dye, and restriction fragments are sized on a capillary DNA analyzer. The resulting fingerprints are edited with a fingerprint-editing computer program and contigs are assembled with the FPC computer program. The technique was evaluated by repeated fingerprinting of several BACs included as controls in plates during routine fingerprinting of a BAC library and by reconstruction of contigs of rice BAC clones with known positions on rice chromosome 10. 相似文献

SUMMARY: One of the more common uses of the program FingerPrint Contigs (FPC) is to assemble random restriction digest 'fingerprints' of overlapping genomic clones into contigs. To improve the rate of assembling contigs from large fingerprint databases we have adapted FPC so that it can be run in parallel on multiple processors and servers. The current version of 'parallelized FPC' has been used in our laboratory to assemble mammalian BAC fingerprint databases, each containing more than 300000 BAC fingerprints. AVAILABILITY: This parallelized version of FPC is available under the GNU GPL licence, and can be downloaded from ftp://ftp.bcgsc.bc.ca/pub/fpcd. 相似文献

Comparative genomic analysis links karyotypic evolution with genomic evolution in the Indian Muntjac (Muntiacus muntjak vaginalis) 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The karyotype of Indian muntjacs (Muntiacus muntjak vaginalis) has been greatly shaped by chromosomal fusion, which leads to its lowest diploid number among the extant known mammals. We present, here, comparative results based on draft sequences of 37 bacterial artificial clones (BAC) clones selected by chromosome painting for this special muntjac species. Sequence comparison on these BAC clones uncovered sequence syntenic relationships between the muntjac genome and those of other mammals. We found that the muntjac genome has peculiar features with respect to intron size and evolutionary rates of genes. Inspection of more than 80 pairs of orthologous introns from 15 genes reveals a significant reduction in intron size in the Indian muntjac compared to that of human, mouse, and dog. Evolutionary analysis using 19 genes indicates that the muntjac genes have evolved rapidly compared to other mammals. In addition, we identified and characterized sequence composition of the first BAC clone containing a chromosomal fusion site. Our results shed new light on the genome architecture of the Indian muntjac and suggest that chromosomal rearrangements have been accompanied by other salient genomic changes.

Fusarium graminearum is the primary causal pathogen of Fusarium head blight of wheat and barley. To accelerate genomic analysis of F. graminearum, we developed a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC)-based physical map and integrated it with the genome sequence and genetic map. One BAC library, developed in the HindIII restriction enzyme site, consists of 4608 clones with an insert size of approximately 107 kb and covers about 13.5 genome equivalents. The other library, developed in the BamHI restriction enzyme site, consists of 3072 clones with an insert size of approximately 95 kb and covers about 8.0 genome equivalents. We fingerprinted 2688 clones from the HindIII library and 1536 clones from the BamHI library and developed a physical map of F. graminearum consisting of 26 contigs covering 39.2 Mb. Comparison of our map with the F. graminearum genome sequence showed that the size of our physical map is equivalent to the 36.1 Mb of the genome sequence. We used 31 sequence-based genetic markers, randomly spaced throughout the genome, to integrate the physical map with the genetic map. We also end-sequenced 17 BamHI BAC clones and identified 4 clones that spanned gaps in the genome sequence. Our new integrated map is highly reliable and useful for a variety of genomics studies. 相似文献

Libraries constructed in bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) vectors have become the choice for clone sets in high throughput genomic sequencing projects primarily because of their high stability. BAC libraries have been proposed as a source for minimally over-lapping clones for sequencing large genomic regions, and the use of BAC end sequences (i.e. sequences adjoining the insert sites) has been proposed as a primary means for selecting minimally overlapping clones for sequencing large genomic regions. For this strategy to be effective, high throughput methods for BAC end sequencing of all the clones in deep coverage BAC libraries needed to be developed. Here we describe a low cost, efficient, 96 well procedure for BAC end sequencing. These methods allow us to generate BAC end sequences from human and Arabidoposis libraries with an average read length of >450 bases and with a single pass sequencing average accuracy of >98%. Application of BAC end sequences in genomic sequen-cing is discussed. 相似文献

In a search for genes affecting intramuscular fat deposition, we constructed a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library for the whole genome of Rongchang pig, a domestic Chinese swine breed. The library consisted of approximately 192,000 clones, with an averaged insert size of 116 kb. Frequency of non-insert clone of the BAC library was no higher than 1.8%, based on estimation of 220 BAC clones randomly selected. We estimated the coverage of the library to be more than seven porcine genome equivalents. Subsequent screening of the BAC library with a three-step PCR procedure resulted in identification of seven candidate genes that were potentially involved in intramuscular fat deposition. The number of positive BAC clones ranged from 2 to 4 for each of the seven genes. One positive clone, containing the lipin1 gene, was fully sequenced by shotgun method to generate 118,041 bp porcine genomic sequences. The BAC clone contained complete DNA sequence of porcine lipin1 gene including all the exons and introns. Our results indicate that this BAC library is a useful tool for gene identification and help to serve as an important resource for future porcine genomic study. 相似文献

We have constructed a Bacterial Artificial Chromosome (BAC) library that provides 5.5-fold redundant coverage of the chicken
genome. The library was made by cloning partial HindIII-digested high-molecular-weight (HMW) DNA of a female White Leghorn chicken into the HindIII site of the vector pECBAC1. Several modifications of standard protocols were necessary to clone efficiently large partial
HindIII DNA fragments. The library consists of 49,920 clones arranged in 130 384-well plates. An average insert size of 134 kb
was estimated from the analysis of 152 randomly selected BAC clones. The average number of NotI restriction sites per clone was 0.77. After individual growth, DNA was isolated of the pooled clones of each 384-well plate,
and subsequently DNA of each plate was isolated from the individual row and column pools. Screening of the Wageningen chicken
BAC library was performed by two-dimensional PCR with 125 microsatellite markers. For 124 markers at least one BAC clone was
obtained. FISH experiments of 108 BAC clones revealed chimerism in less than 1%. The number of different BAC clones per marker
present in the BAC library was examined for 35 markers which resulted in a total of 167 different BAC clones. Per marker the
number of BAC clones varied from 1 to 11, with an average of 4.77. The chicken BAC library constitutes an invaluable tool
for positional cloning and for comparative mapping studies.

Traditional approaches for sequencing insertion ends of bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) libraries are laborious and expensive, which are currently some of the bottlenecks limiting a better understanding of the genomic features of auto‐ or allopolyploid species. Here, we developed a highly efficient and low‐cost BAC end analysis protocol, named BAC‐anchor, to identify paired‐end reads containing large internal gaps. Our approach mainly focused on the identification of high‐throughput sequencing reads carrying restriction enzyme cutting sites and searching for large internal gaps based on the mapping locations of both ends of the reads. We sequenced and analysed eight libraries containing over 3 200 000 BAC end clones derived from the BAC library of the tetraploid potato cultivar C88 digested with two restriction enzymes, Cla I and Mlu I. About 25% of the BAC end reads carrying cutting sites generated a 60–100 kb internal gap in the potato DM reference genome, which was consistent with the mapping results of Sanger sequencing of the BAC end clones and indicated large differences between autotetraploid and haploid genotypes in potato. A total of 5341 Cla I‐ and 165 Mlu I‐derived unique reads were distributed on different chromosomes of the DM reference genome and could be used to establish a physical map of target regions and assemble the C88 genome. The reads that matched different chromosomes are especially significant for the further assembly of complex polyploid genomes. Our study provides an example of analysing high‐coverage BAC end libraries with low sequencing cost and is a resource for further genome sequencing studies. 相似文献

A cDNA clone specific for a chicken phenobarbital-inducible cytochrome P-450 was used to screen a chicken genomic library. Twenty-nine clones were isolated, restriction mapped, and divided into two non-overlapping groups. The cDNA clone hybridized to 12 kilobases of DNA from both groups. Both groups contained restriction fragments which hybridized to both 5' and 3' fragments of the cDNA clone, and it was concluded that the two groups were derived from two separate genes. Southern transfer analysis of individual chicken DNAs and quantitative hybridization analysis indicated that these two genes are independent and are present as single copies/haploid genome. Comparison of restriction digests of the cloned DNAs and total genomic DNA discounted the possibility that other closely related P-450 genes are present in the chicken genome. 相似文献

FISH physical mapping with barley BAC clones 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a useful technique for physical mapping of genes, markers, and other single- or low-copy sequences. Since clones containing less than 10 kb of single-copy DNA do not reliably produce detectable signals with current FISH techniques in plants, a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) partial library of barley was constructed and a FISH protocol for detecting unique sequences in barley BAC clones was developed. The library has a 95 kb average barley insert, representing about 20% of a barley genome. Two BAC clones containing hordein gene sequences were identified and partially characterized. FISH using these two BAC clones as probes showed specific hybridization signals near the end of the short arm of one pair of chromosomes. Restriction digests of these two BAC clones were compared with restriction patterns of genomic DNA; all fragments contained in the BAC clones corresponded to bands present in the genomic DNA, and the two BAC clones were not identical. The barley inserts contained in these two BAC clones were faithful copies of the genomic DNA. FISH with four BAC clones with inserts varying from 20 to 150 kb, showed distinct signals on paired chromatids. Physical mapping of single- or low-copy sequences in BAC clones by FISH will help to correlate the genetic and physical maps. FISH with BAC clones also provide an additional approach for saturating regions of interest with markers and for constructing contigs spanning those regions. 相似文献

Specific single-cell isolation and genomic amplification of uncultured microorganisms 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
We in this study describe a new method for genomic studies of individual uncultured prokaryotic organisms, which was used
for the isolation and partial genome sequencing of a soil archaeon. The diversity of Archaea in a soil sample was mapped by generating a clone library using group-specific primers in combination with a terminal restriction
fragment length polymorphism profile. Intact cells were extracted from the environmental sample, and fluorescent in situ hybridization
probing with Cy3-labeled probes designed from the clone library was subsequently used to detect the organisms of interest.
Single cells with a bright fluorescent signal were isolated using a micromanipulator and the genome of the single isolated
cells served as a template for multiple displacement amplification (MDA) using the Phi29 DNA polymerase. The generated MDA
product was afterwards used for 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and shotgun-cloned for additional genomic analysis. Sequence
analysis showed >99% 16S rRNA gene homology to soil crenarchaeotal clone SCA1170 and shotgun fragments had the closest match
to a crenarchaeotal BAC clone previously retrieved from a soil sample. The system was validated using Methanothermobacter thermoautotrophicus as single-cell test organism, and the validation setup produced 100% sequence homology to the ten tested regions of the genome
of this organism. 相似文献

BAC libraries generated from restriction-digested genomic DNA display representational bias and lack some sequences. To facilitate completion of genome projects, procedures have been developed to create BACs from DNA physically sheared to create fragments extending up to 200 kb. The DNA fragments were repaired to create blunt ends and ligated to a new BAC vector. This approach has been tested by generating BAC libraries from Drosophila DNA with insert lengths between 50 and 150 kb. The libraries lack chimeric clone problems as determined by mapping paired BAC-end sequences to the assembled fly genome sequence. The utility of "sheared" libraries was demonstrated by closure of a previous clone gap and by isolation of clones from telomeric regions, which were notably absent from previous Drosophila BAC libraries. 相似文献
