Molecular characterization of a set of wheat deletion stocks for use in chromosome bin mapping of ESTs 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The objective of this study was molecular characterization of a set of deletion stocks and other aneuploids for use in chromosome
bin mapping of ESTs in wheat. Wheat aneuploid stocks including 21 nullisomic-tetrasomic (NT), 24 ditelosomic (Dt), and 101
deletion (del) lines were screened with 526 EST clones. A total of 1,951 loci were detected by 493 informative EST clones
and tagged 150 of the 159 deletion intervals or chromosome bins. Previously described deletion lines del1AS-4, del6AL-2, del6BS-6,
and del7DS-6 were found to have normal chromosome constitution. The short arm deletion in del3AS-3 may be translocated from
an unknown chromosome as this stock is nullisomic for the 3AS arm. Thirty-five new deletions were detected in 26 lines. Most
of the new deletions occurred in terminal regions of chromosomes and probably resulted from the loss of very small terminal
fragments that were difficult to detect cytologically. Eleven chromosome aberrations were also detected in two NT and five
Dt lines. Overall, the chromosome bin map provides a resolution of around 28 Mb for an anchor map of a basic set of seven
chromosomes of the Triticeae. Any target gene can be allocated to a specific 28-Mb bin and associated ESTs, anchored to the
other Triticeae/grass maps including rice and, therefore, amenable to molecular cloning by comparative and wheat-based positional
cloning methods.

We report on a small de novo interstitial deletion of the short arm of chromosome 20, 46,XY,del(20)(p12.3p13), in a young boy with hypotonia, moderate development delay, mild facial dysmorphism and severe growth failure. This patient did not show major features of Alagille-Watson Syndrome (AWS) which are common in more proximal 20p deletions. Standard and high resolution chromosome banding analysis revealed an apparent terminal deletion. Nevertheless, using chromosomal fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) and molecular analysis with polymorphic markers, we demonstrated that the abnormal chromosome resulted from a de novo interstitial deletion of paternal origin spanning from D20S842 to D20S900 and covering approximately 6 Mb. These findings indicate that a karyotype can lead to insufficient characterization of an apparently terminal deletion, and that one or a few genes in 20p13-->p12.3 bands are important for normal growth. 相似文献

We report a patient with an interstitial 14q32.1-->q32.3 deletion and review the literature. The adult patient presented with moderate mental retardation, a friendly behavior and a non-specific phenotype. The deletion seemed to be terminal but with FISH probes appeared to be interstitial. Comparison with other 14q terminal and interstitial deletion patients reported in literature and those with a ring 14 chromosome is given. 相似文献

Chromosomal rearrangements resulting in an inverted duplication and a terminal deletion (inv dup del) can occur due to three known mechanisms, two of them resulting in a normal copy region between the duplicated regions. These mechanisms involve the formation of a dicentric chromosome, which undergo breakage during cell division resulting in cells with either an inverted duplication and deletion or a terminal deletion. We describe a mosaic 3 year old patient with two cell lines carrying a chromosome 9p deletion where one of the cell lines contains an additional telocentric marker chromosome. Our patient is mosaic for the product of a double breakage of a dicentric chromosome including a centric fission. Mosaicism involving different rearrangements of the same chromosome is rare and suggests an early mitotic breakage event. 相似文献

Interstitial deletion of chromosome 6q: Precise definition of the breakpoints by microdissection,DNA amplification,and reverse painting 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Routine chromosomal analysis using GTG-banding alone showed a mosaic terminal deletion of 6q in a 14-week-old boy with developmental
retardation, facial anomalies, agenesis of corpus callosum, cleft palate, hypotonia, short neck and pterygium colli, and minor
anomalies of hands and feet. Discrepancies between the clinical findings on our patient and those described in the literature
on patients having terminal deletions led to a more precise analysis of the karyotype. Reverse painting was performed on normal
G-banded metaphases for exact determination of the breakpoints and on metaphases of the patient for evaluation of mosaicism.
A DNA library that was obtained by microdissection of three deleted chromosomes 6 was used as a painting probe. Subsequent
DNA amplification was performed with the help of topoisomerase-pretreated degenerate oligonucleotide primers. Unexpectedly,
the hybridization pattern on normal metaphase chromosomes revealed an interstitial deletion with breakpoints at 6q25.1 and
6q27 instead of a terminal deletion. Hybridization on metaphases of the patient showed one deleted chromosome 6 in all metaphases
analyzed at a higher resolution rather than mosaicism as previously assumed [karyotype, 46,XY,del(6)(q25.1→q27)]. We assume
that in the single cases of 6q– described in the literature the deletions are misclassified. This might be due to difficulties in distinguishing between
interstitial and terminal deletions at 6q and in precisely defining chromosomal breakpoints after GTG-banding alone.

The Drosophila melanogaster transposable element 412 is transiently unstable in Saccharomyces cerevisiae when present on a freely replicating plasmid. The 412 element undergoes recombination to form two circular molecules, a 412 deletion plasmid and, presumably, a 412 circle. The 412 deletion plasmid contains a single long terminal repeat which most likely is the result of homologous recombination within the long terminal repeats. This recombination occurs at or shortly after transformation and is independent of both the RAD52 gene product and the Flp gene of 2 micron DNA. 相似文献

We present a case of a de novo Xq22.1 chromosomal terminal deletion discovered prenatally by conventional cytogenetics. The pregnancy resulted in the birth of a normal girl. Preferential inactivation of the abnormal X was demonstrated postnatally. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) demonstrated a terminal Xq deletion spanning Xq22.1 -->qter. An X painting probe ruled out a translocation. The deleted X chromosome was determined to be of paternal origin. The girl is now 4 years old with normal physical and psychomotor development. X chromosomal deletions are infrequent findings in prenatal diagnosis and present a difficult counseling challenge when they occur. Prenatal X-inactivation studies provide an opportunity for more informative genetic counseling when a de novo X chromosome deletion is detected. 相似文献

Both cytogenetically visible and cryptic deletions of the terminal region of chromosome 22q are associated with a clinical phenotype including mental retardation, delay in expressive speech development, hypotonia, normal to accelerated growth and minor facial dysmorphic features. The genes responsible for the development of the phenotype have not yet been identified, but a distal localization is probable, since the cytogenetically visible and the cryptic deletions show a similar pattern of symptoms. We report a 33-year-old woman with a submicroscopic 22q13 deletion, mild mental retardation, speech delay, autistic symptoms and mild facial dysmorphic features. The deletion was mapped by FISH using cosmid probes from terminal 22q13, and the size of the deletion was estimated to be 100 kb. Three genes are affected by the deletion in this patient. ACR and RABL2B are deleted and proSAP2 is disrupted. This observation, together with recently published data, supports the notion that proSAP2 is the most important contributor to the 22q13 deletion phenotype. 相似文献

Deletion events that occur spontaneously in 36-kilobase-pair (kbp) plasmid pHH4 from the archaebacterium Halobacterium halobium were investigated. Four different deletion derivatives with sizes ranging from 5.7 to 17 kbp were isolated. Three of these deletion variants derived from pHH4 (pHH6 [17 kbp], pHH7 [16 kbp], and pHH8 [6.3 kbp]), whereas the 5.7-kbp plasmid pHH9 derived from pHH6. Strains containing pHH6, pHH7, or pHH9 each lacked the parental plasmid pHH4, while pHH8 occurred at a 1:1 ratio together with pHH4. Common to all of these plasmids was the 5.7-kbp region of pHH9 DNA. The regions containing the fusion site in the deletion derivatives were investigated and compared with the corresponding area of the parental plasmid. Each deletion occurred exactly at the terminus of an insertion element. In pHH6 and pHH7, a halobacterial insertion element (ISH2) was located at the deletion site. The DNA fused to ISH2 displayed a 7-base-pair (bp) (pHH7) or 10-bp (pHH6) sequence homology to the inverted repeat of ISH2. In the two smaller plasmids, pHH8 and pHH9, an ISH27 element was located at the deletion site. Most likely, all of these smaller plasmids resulted from an intramolecular transposition event. The ISH27 insertion sequence contains a 16-bp terminal inverted repeat and duplicates 5 bp of target DNA during the transposition with the specificity 5'ANNNT3'. Four ISH27 copies were analyzed, and two ISH27 element types were identified that have approximately 85% sequence similarity. The ISH27 insertion elements constitute a family which is related to the ISH51 family characterized for H. volcanii, another halophilic archaebacterium. 相似文献

Deletion of the centromere as a mechanism for achieving stability of a dicentric chromosome 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
A patient with primary amenorrhea and a terminal rearrangement of chromosomes 13 and 20 is described. The stability of the dicentric translocation chromosome was achieved by suppression of the activity of the centromere of chromosome 20 and actual deletion of the centromere of chromosome 13. These two mechanisms may be fundamentally similar if centromere inactivation results from a visually undetectable deletion. 相似文献

We have analyzed a recently described 22q13.3 microdeletion in a child with some overlapping features of the cytologically visible 22q13.3 deletion syndrome. Patient NT, who shows mild mental retardation and delay of expressive speech, was previously found to have a paternal microdeletion in the subtelomeric region of 22q. In order to characterize this abnormality further, we have constructed a cosmid/P1 contig covering the terminal 150 kb of 22q, which encompasses the 130-kb microdeletion. The microdeletion breakpoint is within the VNTR locus D22S163. The cloning of the breakpoint sequence revealed that the broken chromosome end was healed by the addition of telomeric repeats, indicating that the microdeletion is terminal. This is the first cloned terminal deletion breakpoint on a human chromosome other than 16p. The cosmid/P1 contig was mapped by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis analysis to within 120 kb of the arylsulfatase A gene, which places the contig in relation to genetic and physical maps of the chromosome. The acrosin gene maps within the microdeletion, approximately 70 kb from the telomere. With the distal end of chromosome 22q cloned, it is now possible to isolate genes that may be involved in the overlapping phenotype of this microdeletion and 22q13.3 deletion syndrome. 相似文献

We present clinical and developmental data on a girl with a de novo terminal deletion of the long arm of chromosome 4, del(4)(q33). The patient was evaluated at birth and followed up until 5 years of age. She showed facial and digital dysmorphism, a complex congenital heart defect, a large occipital encephalocele, and postnatal growth deficiency. Her neuropsychomotor milestones were delayed, and she developed learning difficulties. Apart from standard Giemsa banding, a molecular genetic analysis was performed using a comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) array. This revealed a terminal deletion at the band 4q32.3, which is directly adjacent to 4q33. The clinical findings in our patient differ from those described previously in patients with del(4)(q33) and del(4)(q32), respectively. In particular, the prominent occipital encephalocele has not been observed before in a terminal 4q deletion. 相似文献

In vitro activities of native and designed peptide antibiotics against drug sensitive and resistant tumor cell lines 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In order to develop peptide agents with reduced length and enhanced tumoricidal activity, we have designed gaegurin 6 (GGN6) derivatives through deletions and/or substitutions of amino acids. The deletion of hydrophobic amino terminal region completely abolished antitumor activity whereas the deletion of carboxy terminal region had little influence on antitumor activity. Antitumor activity of the PTP peptides did not correlate with antibacterial activity. PTP7, the most potent derivative, was found to have comparable antitumor activity to GGN6 in spite of reduced number of amino acids which is about half the size of gaegurin 6; furthermore, it showed little cytotoxicity on PBMCs and RBCs. GGN6 and PTP7 also showed equivalent cytotoxicity against drug sensitive (MCF-7) and multidrug-resistant cell lines (MCF-7/DOX). Plasma membrane blebbing and DNA fragmentation of peptide-treated tumor cells indicated that the peptides could induce apoptosis in tumor cells. These results suggest that GGN6 and its derivatives can be developed as new anticancer agents and may provide a new strategy for overcoming MDR which is a major problem in cancer therapy. 相似文献

A male patient is reported with terminal 10q26 deletion and clinical findings suggesting Prader-Willi syndrome during the infancy. These findings included decreased fetal movements, neonatal hypotonia, need for tube feeding, characteristic facial dysmorphism with dolichocephaly, narrow bifrontal diameter, almond-shaped eyes and epicanthus, hypogenitalism and developmental retardation. However, during the further evolution there was neither hyperphagia nor obesity and chromosomal and molecular investigations failed to confirm the diagnosis of Prader-Willi syndrome. Special behavioural abnormalities became evident with notably hyperactivity, hyperkinesis and destructive tendency. Finally, at the age of 17 years high resolution chromosome studies revealed a terminal 10q26.3 deletion. A review of the literature is made on previously reported patients with either a Prader-Willi-like syndrome or a terminal 10q deletion with behavioural problems. 相似文献

Terminal 7q duplication and terminal 13q deletion are two conditions with variable phenotypes including microcephaly, thumb a-/hypoplasia, cortical dysplasia, microphtalmia, intellectual disability and dysmorphic features. We describe a boy born to a mother with a reciprocal t (7;13) who combines both a terminal 7q33-qter duplication and terminal 13q33-qter deletion through the inheritance of a derivative chromosome 13 (der (13)). The patient presented with developmental delay, facial and non-facial dysmorphic features, hypertonia, genital abnormality and skeletal malformation but no thumb a-/hypoplasia or microphtalmia. Knowing the exact breakpoints of his chromosomal aberrations using high resolution array CGH (aCGH) and comparison of his phenotypes with those of 24 and 59 previously published cases of 7q duplication and 13q deletion, respectively, allow us to further narrow the size of the proposed critical regions for microcephaly, thumb a-/hypoplasia and hypo/hypertonia on chromosome 13. 相似文献

Terminal deletions of units from α‐helical repeat proteins have provided insight into the physical origins of their cooperativity. To test if the same principles governing cooperativity apply to β‐sheet‐containing repeat proteins, we have created a series of C‐terminal deletion constructs from a large leucine‐rich repeat (LRR) protein, YopM. We have examined the structure and stability of the resulting deletion constructs by a combination of solution spectroscopy, equilibrium denaturation studies, and limited proteolysis. Surprisingly, a high degree of nonuniformity was found in the stability distribution of YopM. Unlike previously studied repeat proteins, we identified several key LRR that on deletion disrupt nearby structure, at distances as far away as up to three repeats, in YopM. This partial unfolding model is supported by limited proteolysis studies and by point substitution in repeats predicted to be disordered as a result of deletion of adjacent repeats. We show that key internal‐ and terminal‐caps must be present to maintain the structural integrity in adjacent regions (roughly four LRRs long) of decreased stability. The finding that full‐length YopM maintains a high level of cooperativity in equilibrium unfolding underscores the importance of interfacial interactions in stabilizing locally unstable regions of structure. 相似文献

Eighty two new loci, mapped with 51 DNA clones, were added to the earlier deletion maps of the homoeologous group-6 short arms of hexaploid wheat ( Triticum aestivum L. em Thell., 2n = 6 x = 42, AABBDD). There are now 41, 56 and 52 loci mapped on deletion maps of 6AS, 6BS and 6DS, respectively. The linear order of orthologous loci in all three arms appears to be identical. The majority of the loci are located in the distal one-half of the three arms. There seems to be an increased marker/gene density from the centromeric to the telomeric regions in each arm, and the marker density in comparable physical regions is similar on all three maps. Recombination is not uniformly distributed along the chromosome arms; 60% of recombination occurs in the distal one-third of each arm. Recombination increases from the proximal region to the distal end in a nonlinear pattern. The distribution of loci and recombination along each of the three chromosome arms is highly correlated. Comparison of the 6BS deletion map from this study and a 6HS physical map of barley ( Hordeum vulgare L., 2n = 2 x = 14, HH) reveals a remarkably similar distribution of recombinogenic and gene-rich regions between the two chromosome arms, suggesting that the distribution patterns of genes may be conserved in the homoeologous group-6 chromosome short arms of wheat and barley. A consensus map of wheat group-6 short arms containing 46 orthologous loci was constructed. Comparison of the consensus map with published linkage maps of Triticeae group-6 chromosome short arms indicates that the linear order of the loci on the maps has been largely conserved. Evidence from this study does not support the existence of a 2BS-6BS reciprocal terminal translocation. 相似文献

Expression plasmids were constructed from the cDNA of human calpastatin to examine the contribution to the inhibition of calpain of highly conserved sequences in each of four repetitive domains. A series of deletion derivatives of domain 1 proteins, truncated at either the amino or carboxy terminus, were produced in E. coli. Deletion from the amino terminus past the amino terminal conserved sequence decreased the inhibition. When the middle conserved sequence, the M-sequence, was further deleted, no inhibition was detected, but deletion from the carboxy terminus past the carboxy terminal conserved sequence did not decrease the inhibition until the M-sequence was reached. Nuclear magnetic resonance and circular dichroism spectra showed that domain 1 has an unfolded structure. Peptides that contained the M-sequence and some neighboring sequences were synthesized to measure the minimum size of the inhibitory peptide, which was the M-sequence with the next six residues on the amino terminal side. 相似文献
