We have recently characterized a novel mammalian gene family, encoding membrane glycoproteins with four trans-membrane domains. This gene family includes the previously studiedPMP22,which is involved in the Charcot–Marie–Tooth neuropathy, and three novel genes:TMP, XMP,andYMP(HGMW-approved symbolsEMP1, EMP2andEMP3,respectively). TheTmp(tumor-associated membrane protein) gene was isolated from a c-mycinduced mouse brain tumor and is expressed in several highly proliferative cell types. We have now isolated cDNAs of the mouseXmpandYmpgenes and determined the chromosomal localization of mouseTmp, Xmp,andYmp. Tmpwas mapped to mouse chromosome 6,Xmpwas mapped to chromosome 16, andYmpwas mapped to chromosome 7.TmpandYmpmap to paralogous chromosomal regions, whereasXmpmaps to a chromosomal region that is putatively paralogous to a region on chromosome 11, to whichPmp22was previously mapped. These data suggest that this family of membrane glycoproteins evolved as a result of chromosomal duplications.  相似文献

TheGPX2gene codes for GSHPx-GI, a glutathione peroxidase whose mRNA is readily detectable in the gastrointestinal tract. AlthoughGPX2is a single gene in humans, there are two genes in the mouse genome with homology toGPX2.By analyzing a panel of mouse interspecies DNA from the Jackson Laboratory's backcross resource, we have chromosomally mapped these two genes. One was mapped to the central region of mouse chromosome 12 betweenD12Mit4andD12Mit5,nearfosandTgfb3.This region is homologous to human 14q24.1, where humanGPX2has been mapped, and most likely represents the functional mouseGpx2gene. The otherGpx2-like gene was mapped to mouse chromosome 7 betweenPcsk3andHbb.We have isolated the latter gene from a P1 phage library. Its pseudogene nature is revealed by the sequence analysis: (a) it is intronless; (b) it has a single nucleotide deletion in the coding region; and (c) it has a poly(A) tail at its 3′-untranslated region.  相似文献

Summary New linkage data are presented for the situation of five previously unlocated isozymic loci of the tomato and closely related species with homosequential chromosomes.Prx-1 lies on chromosome 1, where it is also linked withSkdh-1; Aps-2 is linked withGot-4 on chromosome 8;Tpi-2 has been allocated to chromosome 4; and a linkage has been detected betweenPgi-1 andEst-4, whose respective chromosome has not yet been determined. These and previously published data have been summarized in the form of an isozyme linkage map. Twenty-two loci have thus been mapped on nine of the twelve tomato chromosomes. We discuss some new applications of mapped isozymic genes. In certain types of segregations, isozymic genes are far more efficient than morphological markers in providing linkage information. They greatly expedite the cytogenetic investigation of species hybrids and can be utilized to facilitate backcross transfers of genes from wild to cultivated taxa.  相似文献

We mapped two loci for ADP-ribosylation factor homologues (ARF1, ARF2) and two loci for cysteine proteinase inhibitors (oryzacystatin-I and -II: OCI, OCII) by linkage analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphism loci in rice (Oryza sativa L.) genomic DNAs using their cDNAs as probes.Oc-1 andArf-2 were found to be closely located to each other on chromosome 1, whileOc-2 andArf-1,both found on chromosome 5, were also located close to each other. The map distances are about 2 cM in both pairs. In each chromosome, theArf locus was located about 27 cM from that of the aldolase gene (Ald-2 in chromosome 1 andAld-1 in chromosome 5). These three genes are in the same order,Ald-Arf-Oc, but in opposite orientations relative to the distal ends of the linkage group. The presence of two sets of three linked genes on chromosomes 1 and 5 strongly suggests a structural similarity of the blocks of the two chromosomes, which probably reflects duplication of the segment. A recent investigation by other workers has shown that these rice blocks correspond to two regions in maize chromosomes 8 and 6, that have previously been shown to share many duplicated nucleotide sequences. It is therefore very likely that the duplication of the region occurred before the divergence of rice and maize during the evolution of the subfamilies of the grasses (Gramineae). In view of a recently discovered possible structural similarity between the small GTP-binding protein superfamily, which includesArf andras proteins, and the cystatin family, the close linkage ofOc andArf loci found in the present study suggests a possible cluster of genes related to the small GTP-binding proteins.  相似文献

Sequence-tagged microsatellite site (STMS) and sequence-tagged site (STS) markers linked closely to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris race 3 resistance gene in chickpea were identified, and linkage between three wilt resistance genes was elucidated. The resistance to race 3 in chickpea germplasm accession WR-315 was inherited as a single gene, designated foc-3, in 100 F7 recombinant inbred lines derived from the cross of WR-315 (resistant) × C-104 (susceptible). The foc-3 gene was mapped 0.6 cM from STMS markers TA96 and TA27 and STS marker CS27A. Another STMS marker, TA194, at 14.3 cM, flanked the gene on the other side. Linkage between foc-3 and two other chickpea wilt resistance genes, foc-1 (syn. h 1 ) and foc-4, was established. foc-3 was mapped 9.8 cM from foc-1 and 8.7 cM from foc-4, whereas foc-1 and foc-4 are closely linked at 1.1 cM. The identification of closely linked markers to resistance genes will facilitate marker-assisted selection for introgression of the race 3 resistance gene to susceptible chickpea lines.Communicated by H.C.

The Lotus japonicus LjSYM2 gene, and the Pisum sativum orthologue PsSYM19, are required for the formation of nitrogen-fixing root nodules and arbuscular mycorrhiza. Here we describe the map-based cloning procedure leading to the isolation of both genes. Marker information from a classical AFLP marker-screen in Lotus was integrated with a comparative genomics approach, utilizing Arabidopsis genome sequence information and the pea genetic map. A network of gene-based markers linked in all three species was identified, suggesting local colinearity in the region around LjSYM2/PsSYM19. The closest AFLP marker was located just over 200 kb from the LjSYM2 gene, the marker SHMT, which was converted from a marker on the pea map, was only 7.9 kb away. The LjSYM2/PsSYM19 region corresponds to two duplicated segments of the Arabidopsis chromosomes AtII and AtIV. Lotus homologues of Arabidopsis genes within these segments were mapped to three clusters on LjI, LjII and LjVI, suggesting that during evolution the genomic segment surrounding LjSYM2 has been subjected to duplication events. However, one marker, AUX-1, was identified based on colinearity between Lotus and Arabidopsis that mapped in physical proximity of the LjSym2 gene.Communicated by J.S. Heslop-Harrison  相似文献

We have mapped the chromosomal locations of three human nuclear genes for putative components of the apparatus of mitochondrial gene expression, using a combination ofin situhybridization and interspecies hybrid mapping. The genesRPMS12(mitoribosomal protein S12, a conserved protein component of the mitoribosomal accuracy center),TUFM(mitochondrial elongation factor EF-Tu), andAFG3L1(similar to the yeast genesAfg3andRca1involved in the turnover of mistranslated or misfolded mtDNA-encoded polypeptides) were initially characterized by a combination of database sequence analysis, PCR, cloning, and DNA sequencing.RPMS12maps to chromosome 19q13.1, close to the previously mapped gene for autosomal dominant hearing loss DFNA4. TheTUFMgene is located on chromosome 16p11.2, with a putative pseudogene or variant (TUFML) located very close to the centromere of chromosome 17.AFG3L1is located on chromosome 16q24, very close to the telomere. By virtue of their inferred functions in mitochondria, these genes should be regarded as candidates of disorders sharing features with mitochondrial disease syndromes, such as sensorineural deafness, diabetes, and retinopathy.  相似文献

The extracellular proteases ofAspergillus nidulans are known to be regulated by carbon, nitrogen and sulphur metabolite repression. In this study, a mutant with reduced levels of extracellular protease was isolated by screening for loss of halo production on milk plates. Genetic analysis of the mutant showed that it contains a single, recessive mutation, in a gene which we have designatedxprE, located on chromosome VI. ThexprE1 mutation affected the production of extracellular proteases in response to carbon, nitrogen and, to a lesser extent, sulphur limitation. Three reversion mutations,xprF1, xprF2 andxprG1, which suppressxprE1, were characterised. BothxprF andxprG map to chromosome VII but the two genes are unlinked. ThexprF1, xprF2 andxprG1 mutants showed high levels of milk-clearing activity on medium containing milk as a carbon source but reduced growth on a number of nitrogen sources. Evidence is presented that thexprE1 andxprG1 mutations alter expression of more than one protease and affect levels of alkaline protease gene mRNA.  相似文献

Bacillus subtilis, which accumulates cadnium via the manganese transport system, may acquire cadmium resistance by chromosomal mutations that reduce Cd2+ uptake without affecting Mn2+ transport. A cadmium resistance mutation,cdr-1, maps at about 40° on theB. subtilis chromosome. The deduced map order wasarol-narB-mtlB-cdr-dal-purB. Thecdr mutations in four other, independently isolated Cd2+-resistant mutants demonstrating reduced Cd2+ uptake also mapped betweenaroI anddal.  相似文献

Mapping of the MouseLy-6, Xp-14, andGdc-1 loci to chromosome 15   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
TheLy-6 locus is now regarded as a gene complex consisting of at least five closely linked loci (Ly-6A-Ly-6E) whose polymorphic products are identified by monoclonal antibodies and distinguished by different tissue distributions.Ly-6 has been assigned by other investigators to chromosome (Chr) 9 (linked toThy-1 or to Chr 2. We report that theLy-6 gene complex, together with theXp-14 andGdc -1 loci, is situated on Chr 15 linked toGpt1. These new linkage data are derived from four sources: (1) three separate crosses that failed to demonstrate linkage ofLy-6 to eitherThy-4 on Chr 9 or to any of five genes present on Chr 2; (2) the NXSM recombinant inbred strains, which suggested the linkage ofLy-6 andXp-14 toGpt-1 on Chr 15; (3) severalGpt-1 andGdc-1 congenic strains that confirmed the assignment ofLy-6 andXp-14 to Chr 15; and (4) backcrosses that further confirmed the linkage ofLy-6, Gpt-1, Gdc-4, andXp-14, the probable gene order beingGpt-11/Ly-6 Xp-14-Gdc-1.  相似文献

The Russian wheat aphid is a significant pest problem in wheat and barley in North America. Genetic resistance in wheat is the most effective and economical means to control the damage caused by the aphid. Dn7 is a rye gene located on chromosome 1RS that confers resistance to the Russian wheat aphid. The gene was previously transferred from rye into a wheat background via a 1RS/1BL translocation. This study was conducted to genetically map Dn7 and to characterize the type of resistance the gene confers. The resistant line '94M370' was crossed with a susceptible wheat cultivar that also contains a pair of 1RS/1BL translocation chromosomes. The F2 progeny from this cross segregated for resistance in a ratio of 3 resistant: 1 susceptible, indicating a single dominant gene. One-hundred and eleven RFLP markers previously mapped on wheat chromosomes 1A, 1B and 1D, barley chromosome 1H and rye chromosome 1R, were used to screen the parents for polymorphism. A genetic map containing six markers linked to Dn7, encompassing 28.2 cM, was constructed. The markers flanking Dn7 were Xbcd1434 and XksuD14, which mapped 1.4 cM and 7.4 cM from Dn7, respectively. Dn7 confers antixenosis, and provides a higher level of resistance than that provided by Dn4. The applications of Dn7 and the linked markers in wheat breeding are discussed.Communicated by J.

Four distinct genes that encode mucins have previously been mapped to chromosome 11p15.5. Three of these genes (MUC2, MUC5AC,andMUC6) show a high level of genetically determined polymorphism and were analyzed in the CEPH families. Linkage analysis placed all three genes on the genetic map in a cluster betweenHRASandINS,and more detailed analysis of recombinant breakpoints revealed thatMUC6is telomeric toMUC2.Using these recombinantsD11S150was mapped close toMUC2.Ten of the 11 recombinant chromosomes studied in detail were paternal, and the recombinant events were distributed throughout the 11p15 region, suggesting that the high level of recombination observed in 11p15.5 is not due to a particular recombinational hot spot. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis was used to make a detailed physical map of theMUCcluster and to integrate the physical and genetical maps. The gene order was determined to beHRAS–MUC6–MUC2–MUC5AC–MUC5B–IGF2.TheMUCgenes span a region of some 400 kb and the map extends 770 kb and contains 15 putative CpG islands. The order of theMUCgenes on the map corresponds to the relative order of their expression along the anterior–posterior axis of the body, suggesting a possible functional significance to the gene order.  相似文献

Electrophoretic variation and inheritance of four novel enzyme systems were studied in maize (Zea mays L.). A minimum of 10 genetic loci collectively encodes isozymes of aconitate hydratase (ACO; EC 4.2.1.3.), adenylate kinase (ADK; EC 2.7.4.3), NADH dehydrogenase (DIA; EC 1.6.99.—), and shikimate dehydrogenase (SAD; EC 1.1.1.25). At least four loci are responsible for the genetic control of ACO. Genetic data for two of the encoding loci,Aco1 andAco4, demonstrated that at least two maize ACOs are active as monomers. Analysis of organellar preparations suggests that ACO1 and ACO4 are localized in the cytosolic and mitochondrial subcellular fractions, respectively. Maize ADK is encoded by a single nuclear locus,Adk1, governing monomeric enzymes that are located in the chloroplasts. Two cytosolic and two mitochondrial forms of DIA were electrophoretically resolved. Segregation analyses demonstrated that the two cytosolic isozymes are controlled by separate loci,Dia1 andDia2, coding for products that are functional as monomers (DIA1) and dimers (DIA2). The major isozyme of SAD is apparently cytosolic, although an additional faintly staining plastid form may be present. Alleles atSad1 are each associated with two bands that cosegregate in controlled crosses. Linkage analyses and crosses with B-A translocation stocks were effective in determining the map locations of six loci, including the previously described but unmapped locusAcp4. Several of these loci were localized to sparsely mapped regions of the genome.Dia2 andAcp4 were placed on the distal portion of the long arm of chromosome 1, 12.6 map units apart.Dia1 was localized to chromosome 2, 22.2 centimorgans (cM) fromB1. Aco1 was mapped to chromosome 4, 6.2 cM fromsu1. Adk1 was placed on the poorly marked short arm of chromosome 6, 8.1 map units fromrgd1. Less than 1% recombination was observed betweenGlu1 (on chromosome 10) andSad1. In contrast to many other maize isozyme systems, there was little evidence of gene duplication or of parallel linkage relationships for these allozyme loci.

The capacity to tiller is a key factor that determines plant architecture. Using molecular markers, a single major gene reducing tiller number, formally named the tiller inhibition gene (tin), was mapped to the short arm of chromosome 1A in wheat. We identified a tightly linked microsatellite marker (Xgwm136) that may be useful in future marker-assisted selection. The tin gene was mapped to the distal deletion bin of chromosome 1AS (FLM value 0.86) and wheat ESTs which were previously mapped to the same deletion bin were used to identify 18 closely related sequences in the syntenic region of rice chromosome 5. For a subset of wheat ESTs that detected flanking markers for tin, we identified closely related sequences within the most distal 300 kb of rice chromosome 5S. The synteny between the distal chromosome ends of wheat 1AS and rice 5S appeared to be disrupted at the hairy glume locus and seed storage protein loci. We compared map position of tin with other reduced tillering mutants characterised in other cereals to identify possible orthologous genes.  相似文献

 Complementary recessive genes hwd1 and hwd2 controlling hybrid breakdown (weakness of F2 and later generations) were mapped in rice using RFLP markers. These genes produce a plant that is shorter and has fewer tillers than normal plants when the two loci have only one or no dominant allele at both loci. A cultivar with two dominant alleles at the hwd1 locus and a cultivar with two dominant alleles at the hwd2 locus were crossed with a double recessive tester line. Linkage analysis was carried out for each gene independently in two F2 populations derived from these crosses. hwd1 was mapped on the distal region of rice genetic linkage map for chromosome 10, flanked by RFLP markers C701 and R2309 at a distance of 0.9 centiMorgans (cM) and 0.6 cM, respectively. hwd2 was mapped in the central region of rice genetic linkage map for chromosome 7, tightly linked with 4 RFLP markers without detectable recombination. The usefulness of RFLP mapping and map information for the genes controlling reproductive barriers are discussed in the context of breeding using diverse rice germplasm, especially gene introduction by marker-aided selection.  相似文献

Summary TheAspergillus nidulans gene coding for acetamidase (amdS) was introduced intoA. niger by transformation. Twelve Amd+ transformants were analysed genetically. TheamdS inserts were located in seven different linkage groups. In each transformant the plasmid was integrated in only a single chromosome. Our (non-transformed)A. niger strains do not grow on acetamide and are more resistant to fluoroacetamide than the transformants. Diploids hemizygous for theamdS insert have the Amd+ phenotype. We exploited the opportunity for two-way selection inA. niger: transformants can be isolated based on the Amd+ phenotype, whereas counter-selection can be performed using resistance to fluoroacetamide. On this basis we studied the phenotypic stability of the heterologousamdS gene inA. niger transformants as well as in diploids. Furthermore, we mapped the plasmid insert of transformant AT1 to the right arm of chromosome VI betweenpabA1 andcnxA1, providing evidence for a single transformational insert. The results also show that theamdS transformants ofA. niger can be used to localize non-selectable recessive markers and that the method meets the prerequisites for efficient mitotic mapping. We suggest the use ofamdS transformants for mitotic gene mapping in other fungi.  相似文献

There are three major groups of cytoplasmic male-sterile cytoplasms in maize; C (Charrua), S (USDA), and T (Texas). These cytoplasms can be classified by the unique nuclear genes that suppress the male-sterility effects of these cytoplasms and restore pollen fertility. Typically, plants that carry Texas (T) cytoplasm are male fertile only if they carry dominant alleles at two unlinked nuclear restorer loci,rf1 andrf2. To facilitate analysis of T-cytoplasm-mediated male sterility and fertility restoration, we have mappedrf1 andrf2 relative to closely-linked RFLP markers using five populations. Therf1 locus and/or linked visible markers were mapped in four populations; therf2 locus was mapped in two of the populations. Data from the individual populations were joined with the aid of JoinMap software. The resulting consensus maps placerf1 between umc97 and umc92 on chromosome 3 andrf2 between umc153 andsus1 on chromosome 9. Markers that flank therf1 andrf2 loci have been used to identify alleles atrf1 andrf2 in segregating populations. These analyses demonstrate the possibility of tracking separate fertility restorer loci that contribute to a single phenotype.R. P. Wise and P. S.

Chromosomal locations of theAtm(ataxia–telangiectasia (AT)-mutated) andAcat1(mitochondrial acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase) genes in mouse, rat, and Syrian hamster were determined by direct R-banding FISH. Both genes were colocalized to the C-D band of mouse chromosome 9, the proximal end of q24.1 of rat chromosome 8, and qa4–qa5 of Syrian hamster chromosome 12. The regions in the mouse and rat were homologous to human chromosome 11q. Fine genetic linkage mapping of the mouse AT region was performed using the interspecific backcross mice.Atm, Acat1,andNpat,which is a new gene isolated from the AT region, and 12 flanking microsatellite DNA markers were examined. No recombinations were found among theAtm, Npat, Acat1,andD9Mit6loci, and these loci were mapped 2.0 cM distal toD9Mit99and 1.3 cM proximal toD9Mit102.Comparison of the linkage map of mouse chromosome 9 (MMU9) and that of human chromosome 11 (HSA11) indicates that there is a chromosomal rearrangement due to an inversion betweenEts1andAtm–Npat–Acat1and that the inversion of MMU9 originated from the chromosomal breakage at the boundary betweenGria4andAtm–Npat–Acat1on HSA11. This type of inversion appeared to be conserved in the three rodent species, mouse, rat, and Syrian hamster, using additional comparative mapping data with theRckgene.  相似文献

Natural killer (NK) cells play important roles in controlling tumor cells and against a range of infectious organisms. Recent studies of mouse NK cell surface receptors, which may be involved in the specificity of NK cells, have shown that many of these molecules are encoded by theLy49andLy55(Nkrp1) multigene families that map to distal mouse chromosome 6. Also mapping to this NK cell gene complex (NKC) is the resistance locus,Cmv1,which is involved in genetically determined resistance to murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV). The aim of this study was to localizeCmv1more precisely in relation to other NKC loci by generating a high-resolution genetic map of the region. We have analyzed 1250 backcross mice comprising panels of 700 (BALB/c × C57BL/6J)F1× BALB/c and 550 (A/J × C57BL/6J)F1× A/J progeny. A total of 25 polymorphic genes or microsatellite markers were analyzed over a region of 10 map units fromD6Mit134toD6Mit59.TheCmv1phenotypes of mice recombinant in this interval were tested by infection with MCMV. The results obtained indicate that the functionally important NKC region is a tightly linked cluster of loci spanning at least 0.4 map units. Furthermore,Cmv1maps distal to, but very closely linked to, theLy49multigene family (<0.2 map units), suggesting that MCMV resistance may be conferred by MHC class I-specific NK cell receptors.  相似文献
