Molecular analysis of spontaneous mutations at the gpt locus in Chinese hamster ovary (AS52) cells

AS52 cells are Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells that carry a single functional copy of the bacterial gpt gene and allow the isolation of 6-thioguanine-resistant (6TGr)mutants arising from mutation at the chromosally integrated gpt locus. The gpt locus in AS52 cells is extremely stable, giving rise to 6TGr mutants at frequencies comparable to the endogenous CHO hprt locus. In this study, we describe the spectrum of spontaneous mutations observed in AS52 cells by Southern blot and DNA sequence analyses. Using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the Thermus aquaticus (Taq) polymerase, we have enzymatically amplified 6TGr mutant gpt sequences in vitro. The PCR product was then sequenced without further cloning manipulations to directly identify gpt structural gene mutations. Deletions predominant among the 62 spontaneous 6TGr-AS52 mutant clones analyzed in this study. Of these, 79% (49/62) of the mutations were identified as deletions either by Southern blotting, PCR amplification or DNA sequence analysis. Among these deletions is a predominant 3-base deletion that was observed in 31% (19/62) of the mutants. These data provide a basis for future comparisons of induced point mutational spectra derived in the AS52 cell line, and demonstrate the utility of PCR in the generation of DNA sequence spectra derived from chromosomally integrated mammalian loci.     

Identification and regional localization of DNA markers on chromosome 7 for the cloning of the cystic fibrosis gene

To facilitate mapping of the cystic fibrosis locus (CF) and to isolate the corresponding gene, we have screened a flow-sorted chromosome 7-specific library for additional DNA markers in the 7q31-q32 region. Unique ("single-copy") DNA segments were selected from the library and used in hybridization analysis with a panel of somatic cell hybrids containing various portions of human chromosome 7 and patient cell lines with deletion of this chromosome. A total of 258 chromosome 7-specific single-copy DNA segments were identified, and most of them localized to subregions. Fifty three of these corresponded to DNA sequences in the 7q31-q32 region. Family and physical mapping studies showed that two of the DNA markers, D7S122 and D7S340, are in close linkage with CF. The data also showed that D7S122 and D7S340 map between MET and D7S8, the two genetic markers known to be on opposite sides of CF. The study thus reaffirms the general strategy in approaching a disease locus on the basis of chromosome location.     

Identification of sequences of chromosome 7 that are expressed in sweat gland epithelial cells

Summary This paper describes an approach that can be used to identify specifically expressed coding sequences in defined regions of genomic DNA. We developed this method to identify expressed sequences from chromosome 7 located at or near the cystic fibrosis (CF) locus. Radioactively labelled single-stranded cDNAs derived from sweat gland epithelial cells and from fibroblasts were used to screen a genomic library constructed from flow-sorted chromosomes. Differential screening of phage lifts with these two probes yielded 36 different DNA segments. By using somatic cell hybrids containing different portions of chromosome 7, four of the clones were mapped to the 7q31 region in which the CF locus is located. These four clones and two others that gave strong differential epithelial signals but that were not within 7q31 were studied further. Restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) were identified for two of the DNA segments within 7q31 and used for linkage analysis using a panel of CF families. One DNA segment was assigned to a location centromeric to the met locus. The other marker did not show recombination with CF but was subsequently excluded from the CF region by physical mapping. Three of the six DNA segments were found to hybridize to various RNAs using the Northern technique and therefore contain portions of genes. One of the clones showed strong differential expression when epithelial tissues were compared to fibroblasts and may represent an epithelium-specific gene.     

Localization of DNA probes with tight linkage to the cystic fibrosis locus by in situ hybridization using fibroblasts with a 7q22 deletion

Summary Five DNA probes known to originate from the region 7q22-q31 were sublocalized by in situ hybridization to metaphase preparations of fibroblasts having besides a normal chromosome 7, a homologue 7 with an apparent interstitial deletion of a large part of band q22. A flow cytometric chromosome analysis confirmed a loss of material from one of the homologues of chromosome 7. Four of the probes, B79a, 7C22,metH, and pJ3.11, have been shown to be closely linked to the cystic fibrosis (CF) locus. We localized probes B79a and 7C22 to the part of 7q22 involved in the deletion, whereasmetH and pJ3.11 could be assigned to band 7q31. Probe pJu28, for which polymorphisms have not yet been described, also appeared to derive from the latter band. Since pJ3.11 andmetH are most tightly linked to the CF locus, this disease locus is indirectly assigned to 7q31. A comparison of our findings with linkage data suggests a discrepancy between genetic and physical distances in the region 7q22-q31.     

A novel human DNA polymorphism resulting from transfer of DNA from chromosome 6 to chromosome 16

A cloned minisatellite, termed lambda MS29, that is unusual because it detects two variable loci in human DNA has been isolated. One locus, DNF21S1, located in the terminal region of the short arm of human chromosome 6, is also present in great apes. The second minisatellite locus, DNF21S2, is located interstitially on chromosome 16p11 and is absent both from non-human primates and from some humans. Physical mapping and sequencing show that the second locus has arisen recently in evolution by duplication of a large (greater than 15 kb) segment of chromosome 6 DNA containing a minisatellite and transposition onto chromosome 16 into a member of a novel low-copy-number repetitive DNA family. This unusual duplication/transposition event appears to represent the first example of a human DNA polymorphism arising through DNA-mediated, rather than RNA-mediated, transfer between autosomes.     

Tandemly repeated transgenes of the human minisatellite MS32 (D1S8), with novel mouse gamma satellite integration.

The human hypervariable minisatellite MS32 has a well characterised internal repeat unit array and high mutation rates have been observed at this locus. Analysis of MS32 mutants has shown that male germline mutations are polarised to one end of the array and frequently involve complex gene conversion-like events, suggesting that tandem repeat instability may be modulated by cis-acting sequences flanking the locus. In order to investigate the processes affecting MS32 mutation rate and mechanism, we have created transgenic mice harbouring an MS32 allele. Here we describe the organisation of eight transgenic insertions. Analysis of these transgenic loci by MVR-PCR and structural analysis of the junctions between mouse flanking DNA and the transgenic loci has shed light on mechanisms of integration and rearrangement of the tandem repeated transgenes. Sequence analysis of the mouse DNA flanking these transgenes has shown that 5 of the 8 insertions have integrated into mouse gamma satellite repeated sequence. This suggests a non-random integration of the MS32 transgene construct into the mouse genome.     

DNA barcoding of Gaultheria L.in China (Ericaceae: Vaccinioideae)

Four DNA barcoding loci,chloroplast loci rbcL,matK,trnH-psbA,and nuclear locus internal transcribed spacer (ITS),were tested for the accurate discrimination of the Chinese species of Gaultheria by using intraspecific and interspecific pairwise P-distance,Wilcoxon signed rank test,and tree-based analyses.This study included 186 individuals from 89 populations representing 30 species.For all individuals,single locus markers showed high levels of sequencing universality but were ineffective for species resolvability.Polymerase chain reaction amplification and sequencing were successful for all four loci.Both ITS and matK showed significantly higher levels of interspecific species delimitation than rbcL and trnH-psbA.A combination ofmatK and ITS was the most efficient DNA barcode among all studied regions,however,they do not represent an appropriate candidate barcode for Chinese Gaultheria,by which only 11 out of 30 species can be separated.Loci rbcL,matK,and trnH-psbA,which were recently proposed as universal plant barcodes,have a very poor capacity for species separation for Chinese Gaultheria.DNA barcodes may be reliable tools to identify the evolutionary units of this group,so further studies are needed to develop more efficient DNA barcodes for Gaultheria and other genera with complicated evolutionary histories.     

The double-strand-break repair model for recombination

We have isolated and characterized several members of the P transposable element family from a Drosophila melanogaster P strain. Large 2.9 kb elements are present as multiple highly conserved copies together with smaller (0.5-1.6 kb), heterogeneous elements. The complete DNA sequences of the 2.9 kb element and four small elements (previously isolated from hybrid-dysgenesis-induced mutations of the white locus) have been determined. Each small element appears to have arisen from the 2.9 kb element by a different internal deletion. P elements have 31 bp perfect inverse terminal repeats and upon insertion duplicate an 8 bp sequence found only once at the site of insertion. Three of the insertions into the white locus occurred at the same nucleotide, indicating a high degree of local site specificity for insertion. The basis of this specificity has been investigated by DNA sequence analysis of the sites where 18 P elements are found. A revertant of one of the white locus mutants has been found to result from precise excision of the P element, restoring the wild-type DNA sequence.     

Ancient DNA fragments longer than 300 bp

It is widely assumed that ancient DNA (aDNA) extracts contain no authentic templates longer than 300 bp. Here we present results which show that fragments of up to 800 bp in length can be reproducibly amplified from aDNA extracts. The amplification involves the short tandem repeat (STR) locus HUMVWA31A. Authentication of the amplified fragments is carried out by measures of expectancy.
