Restriction endonuclease fragment length variations (RFLVs) were detected by using a rat cDNA probe for the bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UDPGT) gene between two mouse strains, 129/Sv and MOL-MIT. RFLVs of the gene were found byEcoRI andPvuII digestions. From linkage analyses of the three-point cross test usingElo andEn-1 as marker genes, the bilirubin UDPGT gene was mapped at position 37 on chromosome 1. Bilirubin and phenol UDPGTs have been suggested to be expressed by a single gene by alternative splicing in human and rat. The mouse bilirubin UDPGT gene was namedGnt-1.This study was supported by Grant-in-Aid for Research Project A-II from the Institute for Developmental Research, Aichi Prefecture Colony.  相似文献

LEF-1 is a 54-kDa nuclear protein that is expressed specifically in pre-B and T-cells. It binds to a functionally important site in the T-cell receptor alpha enhancer and contributes to maximal enhancer activity. LEF-1 is a member of a family of regulatory proteins that share homology with the high mobility group protein 1 (HMG1). The location of the LEF1 gene on human and mouse chromosomes was determined by Southern blot analysis of DNA from panels of interspecies somatic cell hybrids using a murine cDNA probe. Human-specific DNA fragments were detected in all somatic cell hybrids that retained the human chromosomal region 4cen-q31.2. Fluorescent in situ hybridization with two biotin-labeled overlapping human genomic cosmids revealed a specific hybridization signal at 4q23-q25. The homologous locus in the mouse was mapped to chromosome 3 by Southern analysis of rodent x mouse hybrid cell DNA. This chromosomal location was confirmed by the use of a restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) in recombinant inbred mouse strains. The results of this RFLP analysis indicated that the mouse Lef-1 gene was closely linked to Pmv-39 and Egf and was likely placed between these loci, both of which were previously mapped to distal mouse chromosome 3. Our mapping results did not suggest involvement of this gene in previously mapped genetic disorders or in known neoplasia-associated translocation breakpoints.  相似文献

Restriction endonuclease fragment length variations (RFLVs) were found through the use of cDNA probes for metallothionein genes 1 (Mt-1) and 2 (Mt-2) in the mouse. RFLVs were detected in restriction patterns generated by BglII and XbaI in the Mt-1 gene and by PvuII in the Mt-2 gene. All laboratory strains carry the Mt-1a and Mt-2a alleles. Among strains of wild origin, some Western European subspecies (Mus mus domesticus and M. m. brevirostris) also carry the Mt-1a and Mt-2a alleles. In contrast, a European subspecies (M. m. musculus) and the great majority of subspecies from East Asian countries (M. m. molossinus, Chinese mice of wild origin, and M. m. yamashinai) carry the Mt-1b and Mt-2b alleles. A domesticus strain from Bulgaria and two castaneus strains from Thailand and Philippines carry the intermediate combination of Mt-1b and Mt-2a alleles. Using the RFLVs, we mapped the Mt-1 and Mt-2 genes on chromosome 8, and they appear to be very closely linked since no recombination was observed between them in any of the mice examined. Data from three-point cross tests showed that the recombination frequencies are 4.31% between Os and Mt, 15.52% between Mt and Prt-2, and 19.83% between Os and Prt-2. The gene order of Os-Mt-1,Mt-2-Prt-2 has been confirmed.  相似文献

Cytochrome P450 17 alpha-hydroxylase/C17-20 lyase (P45017 alpha) catalyzes the conversion of C-21 steroids to C-19 steroids in gonads. A full-length mouse cDNA encoding P450 17 alpha was isolated from a mouse Leydig cell library and characterized by restriction mapping and sequencing. The predicted amino acid sequence has 83% homology to rat, 66% homology to human, and 62% homology to bovine P45017 alpha amino acid sequences. The protein is 507 amino acids in length, which is 1 amino acid shorter than the human protein and 2 amino acids shorter than the bovine protein. The structural gene encoding P450 17 alpha (Cyp17) was localized utilizing an interspecific testcross to mouse chromosome 19, distal to Got-1. Another cytochrome P450, P4502c (Cyp2c), also is located at the distal end of chromosome 19. CYP17, CYP2c, and GOT1 have been mapped to human chromosome 10, with CYP2C and GOT1 mapped to the distal region, q24.3 and q25.3, respectively. The data in the present study indicate conserved syntenic loci on mouse chromosome 19 and human chromosome 10 and predict that the structural gene encoding P45017 alpha will be found distal to GOT1 on human chromosome 10.  相似文献

The gene (Gsl-5) controlling the expression of GL-Y (Gal beta 1-4(Fuc alpha 1-3)GlcNAc beta 1-6(Gal beta 1-3)Gb4Cer) in mouse kidney was suggested to be located near Ea-4 on mouse chromosome 19 by the results of glycolipid analysis of BXD/Ty recombinant inbred strains (Sekine et al. [1987] J. Biochem. 101, 563-568). In this study, Gsl-5 was mapped on mouse chromosome 19. Among 133 backcross progeny produced on mating between DBA/2 mice and (WHT/Ht x DBA/2)F1 mice, 10 recombinants between Lyt-1 and Gsl-5 were detected, indicating that Gsl-5 is located at 7.5 +/- 2.3 centimorgans (cM) from Lyt-1. While among 154 backcross progeny produced on mating between DBA/2 and (DBA/2 x Mus musculus castaneus)F1 mice, 39 recombinants between Got-1 and Gsl-5 were obtained, indicating that the distance between Got-1 and Gsl-5 is 25.3 +/- 3.5 cM and that Gsl-5 is telomeric to Lyt-1. In the latter mating experiment, we detected 3 recombinants between Gsl-5 and the gene (Gsl-6) controlling the expression of the Z1 ganglioside (NeuGc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-3Gb4Cer) among the 154 backcross mice. These results indicate that these two genes, Gsl-5 and Gsl-6, are closely linked to each other, being 1.9 +/- 1.1 cM apart. This is the report of evidence that two genes controlling the expression of carbohydrates in glycoconjugates are closely linked and the first to suggest that some genes controlling the expression of carbohydrates may be clustered.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Growth arrest in NIH3T3 cells is associated with increased expression of a variety of mRNAs, several of which have been isolated as cDNA clones. Six of these growth arrest-specific (Gas) genes were mapped by following the inheritance of DNA restriction fragment length variants (RFLVs) associated with them in panels of recombinant inbred (RI) strains of mice and in the progeny of backcrosses both between laboratory mouse strains and between a laboratory strain and Mus spretus. The six genes are unlinked. Gas-1 maps to Chromosome (Chr) 13, Gas-2 to Chr 7, Gas-3 to Chr 11, Gas-4 to Chr 16, Gas-6 to Chr 8, and Gas-10 to Chr 1.  相似文献

The dioxin-inducible P-450 gene family in the C57BL/6N mouse comprises two genes, P1-450 and P3-450. Restriction endonuclease-digested genomic DNA was probed with P1-450 and P3-450 full-length cDNA clones in an attempt to find species-specific fragment length differences between mouse and hamster cell lines and any restriction fragment length polymorphism among four inbred mouse strains. With this Southern blot hybridization technique, PstI fragments were used to distinguish between the mouse and hamster P1-450/P3-450 genes, and PvuII fragments were used to distinguish P3-450 differences between the AKR/J and C57L/J inbred strains. Analysis of nineteen mouse X hamster somatic cell hybrid lines and sixteen AKXL (AKR/J X C57L/J) recombinant inbred lines showed that the P1-450/P3-450 genes are located near the Mpi-1 locus, between the Thy-1 and Pk-3 loci, in the middle portion of mouse chromosome 9.  相似文献

The mosquito Aedes aegypti is the principal vector of dengue and yellow fever flaviviruses. Permethrin is an insecticide used to suppress Ae. aegypti adult populations but metabolic and target site resistance to pyrethroids has evolved in many locations worldwide. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling permethrin survival in Ae. aegypti were mapped in an F3 advanced intercross line. Parents came from a collection of mosquitoes from Isla Mujeres, México, that had been selected for permethrin resistance for two generations and a reference permethrin-susceptible strain originally from New Orleans. Following a 1-hr permethrin exposure, 439 F3 adult mosquitoes were phenotyped as knockdown resistant, knocked down/recovered, or dead. For QTL mapping, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified at 22 loci with potential antixenobiotic activity including genes encoding cytochrome P450s (CYP), esterases (EST), or glutathione transferases (GST) and at 12 previously mapped loci. Seven antixenobiotic genes mapped to chromosome I, six to chromosome II, and nine to chromosome III. Two QTL of major effect were detected on chromosome III. One corresponds with a SNP previously associated with permethrin resistance in the para sodium channel gene and the second with the CCEunk7o esterase marker. Additional QTL but of relatively minor effect were also found. These included two sex-linked QTL on chromosome I affecting knockdown and recovery and a QTL affecting survival and recovery. On chromosome II, one QTL affecting survival and a second affecting recovery were detected. The patterns confirm that mutations in the para gene cause target-site insensitivity and are the major source of permethrin resistance but that other genes dispersed throughout the genome contribute to recovery and survival of mosquitoes following permethrin exposure.  相似文献

A 64-centiMorgan linkage map of mouse chromosome 9 was developed using cloned DNA markers and an interspecific backcross between Mus spretus and the C57BL/6J inbred strain. This map was compared to conventional genetic maps using six markers previously localized in laboratory mouse strains. These markers included thymus cell antigen-1, cytochrome P450-3, dilute, transferrin, cholecystokinin, and the G-protein alpha inhibitory subunit. No evidence was seen for segregation distortion, chromosome rearrangements, or altered genetic distances in the results from interspecific backcross mapping. Regional map locations were determined for four genes that were previously assigned to chromosome 9 using somatic cell hybrids. These genes were glutathione S-transferase Ya subunit (Gsta), the T3 gamma subunit, the low density lipoprotein receptor, and the Ets-1 oncogene. The map locations for these genes establish new regions of synteny between mouse chromosome 9 and human chromosomes 6, 11, and 19. In addition, the close linkage detected between the dilute and Gsta loci suggests that the Gsta locus may be part of the dilute/short ear complex, one of the most extensively studied genetic regions of the mouse.  相似文献

We have examined the tissue-specific expression and inducibility of acyl-CoA oxidase and cytochrome P450IVA1 (P450IVA1) RNA in rats. Groups of three rats were dosed daily by gavage with methylclofenapate at 25 mg/kg in 5 ml/kg corn oil for nine weeks, or were administered a vehicle control. P450IVA1 and acyl-CoA oxidase RNA were detected using an RNase protection assay. Similar levels of acyl-CoA oxidase RNA were present in control liver and kidney, but the level of this RNA in lung, muscle and testis was 6-11%, and in pancreas was 0.13%, of that in liver. Treatment of rats with methylclofenapate led to an 11-fold induction of acyl-CoA oxidase RNA in liver and also produced a significant induction of this RNA in kidney, lung, muscle and testis of 1.7-fold, 1.3-fold, 2-fold and 1.7-fold, respectively. Acyl-CoA oxidase RNA was not induced in pancreas. P450IVA1 RNA was present in control liver and also in kidney of control rats at 28% of the level in liver. In contrast to acyl-CoA oxidase RNA, P450IVA1 RNA was not detected in lung, pancreas or testis. Methylclofenapate treatment of rats led to an 18-fold induction of P450IVA1 RNA in liver, and a sevenfold induction in kidney. Induction of P450IVA1 was not detected in any of the other tissues examined. Quantification of the relative amounts of acyl-CoA oxidase and P450IVA1 RNA in control liver revealed that acyl-CoA oxidase RNA was present in a 17.5-fold molar excess over P450IVA1 RNA. Western blotting with an anti-P450IVA IgG revealed two bands of similar apparent molecular mass in liver and kidney microsomes, but not in microsomes from the testis of control rats. Methylclofenapate treatment of rats caused an increase in the intensity of these bands in microsomes from liver, but no induction was obvious in kidney. Immunocytochemical staining for both the microsomal P450IVA and peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase proteins was restricted to the proximal convoluted tubule in the kidney cortex, with staining being most intense in the S3 region.  相似文献

We are interested in the collagen gene superfamily and its involvement in hereditary diseases of the human and domestic dog. Presented here is radiation hybrid mapping of the type I and type IV collagen gene subfamilies on the most recent version of the canine map. The col1A1 gene was mapped to chromosome 9, col1A2 was mapped to chromosome 14, col4A1 and col4A2 were mapped to chromosome 22 and col4A3 and col4A4 were mapped to chromosome 25. The col4A5 and col4A6 genes, while linked to one another, are not linked in the present version of the canine map but likely are present on the X chromosome. These data provide an insight into the molecular evolution of these subfamilies and increase the number of mapped genes in discrete regions of the canine genome. J.K. Lowe and R. Guyon contributed equally to this work Sequences determined during the course of this work have been deposited in GenBank. Accession numbers are AF291995 (col1A1) and AF291996 (col1A2)  相似文献

cDNAs encoding three cytochrome P-450 enzymes were cloned from a rabbit kidney cDNA library. These three cDNAs exhibit greater than 90% nucleotide sequence identity across the coding region. This degree of sequence identity is also seen with P450IVA4, an enzyme that catalyzes the omega-hydroxylation of prostaglandins and that is elevated during pregnancy and induced by progesterone in rabbit lung. The 3' untranslated regions of the three cDNAs display very little sequence identity, suggesting that they are the products of distinct genes. The predicted amino acid sequences derived from each cDNA and for P450IVA4 exhibit about 85% identity. Each cDNA was inserted into an expression vector for transient transfection of COS-1 cells. The transfected cells each expressed a protein recognized by antibodies to P450IVA4. Microsomes isolated from the cells transfected with each cDNA efficiently catalyzed the omega-hydroxylation of lauric acid with rates that greatly exceed that catalyzed by microsomes isolated from the host cell line. One of the cDNAs encodes an enzyme that omega-hydroxylates prostaglandin A1; however, the specific activity was 2 orders of magnitude lower than that for lauric acid. Our results indicate that the substrate selectivity of the kidney P-450s encoded by these cDNAs is distinct from that of the lung P450IVA4 and that multiple enzymes comprise P-450 class IVA in the rabbit.  相似文献

Southern blot analysis suggests that multiple sequences homologous to a phenobarbital-inducible cytochrome P-450 cDNA are present in the rat and mouse genomes. A cDNA (pP-450b-5) to a major phenobarbital-inducible cytochrome P-450 mRNA species in the rat detected 6 polymorphic DNA fragments when hybridized to DNA from C57BL/6J and DBA/2J mice restricted with endonucleases EcoRI, BamHI, and PvuII. Using the BXD recombinant inbred strains, five of these polymorphisms were mapped to the Coh (coumarin hydroxylase) locus on chromosome 7 of the mouse. The Coh locus has previously been shown to code for a phenobarbital-inducible enzyme, believed to be a cytochrome P-450, which catalyzes the conversion of coumarin to 7-hydroxycoumarin (umbelliferone). The DNA polymorphisms appear to reflect changes in either cytochrome P-450 genes or pseudogenes that are very closely linked to the gene responsible for differential coumarin hydroxylase in mice or it may represent a change(s) in the Coh gene itself. The region of the Coh locus on chromosome 7 may be the site of a cluster of cytochrome P-450 genes.  相似文献

A bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) and P1 contig of the proximal part of chromosome 9p centromeric of markers D9S165 and D9S304 is described. This 1.1- to 1.7-Mb portion of chromosome 9p13 was previously not physically mapped. It contains 24 genes or expressed sequence tags, five polymorphic AC repeats, and three new polymorphic single-strand conformation polymorphism variants. Several of the genes thus mapped are excellent candidates for disease-causing genes whose loci have previously been assigned to proximal 9p. Our primary interest is in the cartilage-hair hypoplasia gene (CHH) that resides within the contig between markers D9S163 and D9S1791 based on linkage evidence.  相似文献

There is a natural floral organ mutant of rice (var. Jugal) where the florets, popularly known as spikelet bear multiple carpels and produce multiple kernels in most of its grain. In our earlier work a detailed study has been done on its morpho-anatomical structure with allelic diversity and expression study of the major genetic loci associated with floral organ development. In present study high throughput whole genome sequencing was done which generated about of 3.7 million base pair genomic data for downstream analysis. The reads were about 101 bases long and mapped to the Oryza sativa var. Nipponbare as reference genome. Genome wide variant analysis detected 1,096,419 variants which included 943,033 SNPs and 153,386 InDels. A total of 24,920 non-synonymous SNPs were identified for 11,529 identified genes. Chromosome-wise distribution of uniquely mapped reads onto reference genome showed that maximum reads were mapped to 1st chromosome and least to 9th chromosome. 10th chromosome showed highest density of variations (about 325.6 per 100 kb genome sequence). Detailed sequence analysis of 23 floral organ developmental genes detected 419 potent variants where DL (Drooping Leaf) and OSH1 (Oryza sativa Homeobox1) genes showed highest number (32) of variants; whereas, MADS21 (Minichromosome Agamous Deficient Serum Factor 21) gene have lowest number (5) of variants. The information generated in this study will enrich the genomics of floral organ development in indica rice and cereal crops in general.

The gene for human P450(17 alpha) (CYP17) was previously mapped to chromosome 10 through analysis of somatic cell hybrids. Using a modified procedure of fluorescence in situ hybridization, this gene has now been visualized on simultaneously banded chromosomes and localized to a specific subband of chromosome 10 at q24.3. This precise assignment may facilitate the understanding of the molecular basis of 17 alpha-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase deficiency and the evolution of the CYP superfamily of genes.  相似文献

Screening of a genomic DNA library with a portion of the cDNA encoding the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor subunit rho1 identified two distinct clones. DNA sequencing revealed that one clone contained a single exon from the rho1 gene (GABBR1) while the second clone encompassed an exon with 96% identity to the rho1 gene. Screening of a human retina cDNA library with oligonucleotides specific for the exon in the second clone identified a 3-kb cDNA with an open reading frame of 1395 bp. The predicted amino acid sequence of this cDNA demonstrates 30 to 38% similarity to alpha, beta, gamma, and delta GABA receptor subunits and 74% similarity to the GABA rho1 subunit suggesting that the newly isolated cDNA encodes a new member of the rho subunit family, tentatively named GABA rho2. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of rho1 and rho2 gene sequences from DNA of three somatic cell hybrid panels maps both genes to human chromosome 6, bands q14 to q21. Tight linkage was also demonstrated between restriction fragment length variants (RFLVs) from each rho gene and the Tsha locus on mouse chromosome 4, which is homologous to the CGA locus on human chromosome 6q12-q21. These two lines of evidence confirm that GABRR1 and newly identified GABRR2 map to the same region on human chromosome 6. This close physical association and high degree of sequence similarity raises the possibility that one rho gene arose from the other by duplication.  相似文献

Age-related changes in the levels of multiple forms of cytochrome P-450 as well as in the testosterone hydroxylation activities of hepatic microsomes of male and female rats of different ages from 1 week to 104 weeks (24 months) were investigated. The total cytochrome P-450 measured photometrically did not change much with age in either male and female rats. Testosterone 2α-, 2β-, 15α-, 16α-, and 16β-hydroxylation activities of male rats were much higher than those in female rats and were induced developmentally. These activities in male rats declined with aging to the very low level in female rats by 104 weeks of age. Testosterone 7α-hydroxylation activity was maximum at 3 weeks of age in rats of both sexes. The levels of individual cytochrome P-450s were measured by immunoblotting. P450IA1 and IA2 (3-methylcholanthrene-inducible forms) and P450IIB1 and IIB2 (phenobarbital-inducible form) were detected at low levels in rats of both sexes at all ages. P450IIA2, IIC11 and IVA2 were detected in male rats only and were induced developmentally. These male-specific forms disappeared in male rat liver at 104 weeks of age. P450IIC12, a typical female-specific form, was induced developmentally in female rats and was also detected in male rats at 3 and 104 weeks of age. P450IIIA2 (testosterone 6β-hydroxylase) was induced developmentally in male rats, but disappeared when the rats were 104 weeks of age. In female rats, P450IIIA2 was detected only at 1 and 3 weeks of age. P450IIA1, IIC6, IIE1 and IVA3 were detected in rats of both sexes at any age. P450IIC6 and IVA3 were induced developmentally and detected at a similar level in rats of both sexes. The level of P450IIA1 was maximum at 3 weeks of age in rats of both sexes. The changes in the level of P450IIE1 during aging were small compared with the changes in other cytochrome P-450s used in this study. These observations provide concrete evidence to our earlier hypothesis that each of the forms of cytochrome P-450 in male rats alter with aging in different patterns resulting in a practical feminization of over-all cytochrome P-450 composition at old age.  相似文献
