The discovery of RFLPs and their utilization as genetic markers has revolutionized research in human molecular genetics. However, only a fraction of the DNA sequence polymorphisms in the human genome affect the length of a restriction fragment and hence result in an RFLP. Polymorphisms that are not detected as RFLPs are typically passed over in the screening process though they represent a potentially important source of informative genetic markers. We have used a rapid method for the detection of naturally occurring DNA sequence variations that is based on enzymatic amplification and direct sequencing of genomic DNA. This approach can detect essentially all useful sequence variations within the region screened. We demonstrate the feasibility of the technique by applying it to the human retinoblastoma susceptibility locus. We screened 3,712 bp of genomic DNA from each of nine individuals and found four DNA sequence polymorphisms. At least one of these DNA sequence polymorphisms was informative in each of three families with hereditary retinoblastoma that were not informative with any of the known RFLPs at this locus. We believe that direct sequencing is a reasonable alternative to other methods of screening for DNA sequence polymorphisms and that it represents a step forward for obtaining informative markers at well-characterized loci that have been minimally informative in the past. 相似文献

Summary Three hundred and ninety-two subjects from 89 German families were typed for restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) detected by the probes pmetH, pmetD, pJ3.11, KM19, and XV2c known to be tightly linked to the cystic fibrosis (CF) gene. The analysis of the predictive value of this typing in individual CF families indicates that the combined use of these probes provides a powerful diagnostic system for both carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis. In 45 families the complete haplotype including all RFLPs was available. Of them 41 (91.1%) were fully informative and 4 were partly informative. 相似文献

Cloned cDNAs coding for eye-lens fibre cell-membrane proteins, MIP and MP70, were used to detect restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) in genomic DNA from inbred mice with autosomally inherited cataracts. Whereas distinct RFLPs associated with the MIP gene were identified in the Cba Cat and Nct mutants, no such genetic variation was associated with the MP70 gene. RFLPs associated with the mouse MIP gene may provide informative DNA markers in gene linkage studies of murine hereditary cataracts. 相似文献

Summary The hypothesis of germinal mosaicism in the unaffected mother of two half-sisters affected with Rett syndrome is postulated to explain the unusual recurrence of this genetic disorder affecting only females (1/10000); it might be caused by new X-linked mutations with lethality in male fetuses. The analysis of 34 X-linked restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) in these two affected females and in their unaffected mother and half-brother, together with the reconstruction of phase for 15 informative RFLPs in somatic cell hybrids retaining a single X chromosome from each female, has made it possible to exclude some regions of the X chromosome as possible sites of the mutation(s) causing Rett syndrome. 相似文献

Samples from 30 members of a french cystic fibrosis (CF) family had to be typed with probes for restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) known to be linked to the CF gene, to fulfill the expectations of twenty-two low-risk relatives who were asking for carrier testing. Classical linkage-disequilibrium data between KM-19 and XV-2c polymorphisms and the CF locus were not informative enough for some individuals, and other RFLPs had to be analyzed to determine which chromosomes carried the deficient gene in the family. We report the retrospective screening for delta F508 mutation in this extended family to illustrate the drastic improvements that the direct detection of the major mutation responsible for CF has on genetic counselling of relatives of patients with cystic fibrosis. 相似文献

New informative polymorphism at the DXS304 locus,a close distal marker for the fragile X locus 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Summary The polymorphic DNA marker DXS304 detected by probe U6.2 has recently been shown to be closer to the fragile X locus than previously available markers. Its usefulness has however been limited by its relatively low heterozygosity. We have isolated, by cosmid cloning, a 67 kilobase region around probe U6.2 and have characterized a new probe (U6.2-20E) that detects BanI and BstEII restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs). The BanI RFLP has a heterozygosity of 0.49 and is in partial linkage disequilibrium with the previously described polymorphism, with a combined heterozygosity of 0.63. Furthermore, we have found that the U6.2 original probe, which probably detects an insertion-deletion polymorphism, is also informative in BanI digests. Thus, the two informative RFLPs at the DXS304 locus can be conveniently tested in a single hybridization with a single digest. An updated linkage analysis confirms that DXS304 is distal to the fragile X locus. This informative locus can now be used effectively for genetic mapping of the Xq27–q28 region, and for diagnostic applications in fragile X or Hunter syndrome families. 相似文献

We screened DNA from unrelated individuals for RFLPs in the muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AcChoR) genes. These RFLP markers can be used for genetic linkage and association studies to test the hypothesis that receptor structure or regulation is involved in the development of myasthenia gravis (MG). The cDNAs from four subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, and delta) of the murine muscle AcChoR were used as probes to identify RFLPs in the homologous human genes. Digestion of DNA from 15 unrelated individuals with a set of 10 restriction enzymes revealed 11 RFLPs. At least one RFLP was found for each subunit gene. Eight RFLPs were found at the linked gamma and delta gene loci, six with minor allele frequencies greater than 15%, making that linkage group a very informative marker locus (PIC = .72). PIC values were calculated for the RFLPs from allele and haplotype frequency estimates obtained from a population sample of 53 individuals. The delta gene was assigned by in situ hybridization to region q31----q34 of chromosome 2. All pairs of RFLPs were analyzed for linkage disequilibrium. Of the 16 pairs of RFLPs from the same gene or from the linked gamma and delta genes, 13 pairs showed evidence of disequilibrium that was significant, with P less than .05. The implications of these results are discussed. 相似文献

Parathyroid hormone and the beta hemoglobin gene cluster, which are closely linked on human chromosome 11p15, were localized to bovine syntenic group (U7) with the gene for catalase by the use of bovine x hamster hybrid somatic cells. Restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) were followed through informative pedigrees to determine a linkage map distance of 15.6 +/- 5.4 cM between the parathyroid hormone and hemoglobin genes. Allelic frequencies of the DNA fragment were compared in a small sampling of cattle from five different breeds. 相似文献

Summary A sample of 125 individuals from 37 British cystic fibrosis (CF) families with at least one living affected child were typed with probes for restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) known to be linked to the CF gene. These probes were MetD, MetH, pJ3.11 and 7C22. Using this combination of probes, 30 out of the 37 families were sufficiently informative to enable prenatal diagnosis of the disease. Linkage analysis has also proved to be useful in excluding CF in two cases where diagnosis of the disease was equivocal in the sibling of an affected child. 相似文献

Summary A morphologically and agronomically heterogeneous collection of 38 diploid potato lines was analysed for restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) with 168 potato probes, including random genomic and cDNA sequences as well as characterized potato genes of known function. The use of four cutter restriction enzymes and a fragment separation range from 250 to 2,000 bases on denaturing polyacrylamide gels allowed the detection of RFLPs of a few nucleotides. With this system, 90% of all probes tested showed useful polymorphism, and 95% of those were polymorphic with two or all three enzymes used. On the average, 80% of the probes were informative in all pairwise comparisons of the 38 lines with a minimum of 49% and a maximum of 95%. The percentage of heterozygosity was determined relative to each other for each line and indicated that direct segregation analysis in F1 populations should be feasible for most combinations. From a backcross involving one pair of the 38 lines, a RFLP linkage map with 141 loci was constructed, covering 690 cMorgan of the Solanum tuberosum genome. 相似文献

Summary We have isolated a DNA segment, pX58dIIIc, from an X-chromosome library which identifies an SstI restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) at locus DXS99. Linkage analysis in six informative families has shown that the DXS99 locus lies close to the factor IX gene (F9). No recombination was detected between these loci in 39 informative meioses (Z=9.79, =0.0). Therefore, DXS99 will be useful as a DNA marker for the assessment of carrier status in families with haemophilia B where intragenic markers are not informative. Heterozygosity at DXS99 is approximately 50% and, in conjunction with the RFLPs at F9, 90% of females at risk for being haemophilia B carriers should be diagnosed. 相似文献

Prenatal diagnosis for familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) was performed by using restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) of the LDL receptor gene on chorionic villi DNA taken during the 10th week of pregnancy. Both parents were FH heterozygotes and had previously had a healthy son and an FH homozygous son. Two RFLPs were informative in this family and revealed that the fetus was unaffected by FH. At birth the child was found to have an LDL cholesterol level of 30 mg/dl and a normal LDL receptor activity in cultured umbilical cord fibroblasts. RFLP analysis on chorionic villi DNA is highly recommended for all heterozygous FH couples in whom the LDL receptor gene mutation/s is/are still to be characterized. 相似文献

Summary A panel of seven chromosome 11p13 restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) detected by five DNA probes is described. Two alleles were identified for each polymorphism, and Mendelian segregation of alleles was observed. Allele frequencies range from 0.13/0.87 to 0.44/0.56. This panel of 11p13 RFLPs will be useful for linkage studies investigating the role of 11p13 genes in Wilms' tumor, aniridia, and genitourinary anomalies. Additionally, these RFLPs will be important tools for studying tumor-specific 11p13 alterations in Wilms' tumor and other cancers. 相似文献

We have identified three restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) from within the argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS) gene which maps to human chromosome 9q34-qter. Although RFLPs at pseudogene loci are detected by the cDNA, these are the first polymorphisms reported at the ASS locus. The three RFLPs are in linkage equilibrium with each other, and haplotypes for the ASS locus are highly informative. Two-locus recombination estimates between ASS and seven other 9q markers indicated that ASS is closest to the ABO blood group with a recombination fraction of 0.04 (0.005-0.11). A multilocus lod score analysis with these seven 9q markers indicated that ASS maps between ABL and MCT136 close to ABO, but it is uncertain if ASS is centromeric or telomeric to ABO. 相似文献

The sequences of 21 primer pairs of microsatellite loci screened from a genomic library of apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) are reported in this study. All the identified microsatellite loci were characterized in a set of 25 apricot cultivars and revealed to be polymorphic with 3–12 alleles per locus. These markers showed to be more informative than isozymes and restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) reported in the literature. 相似文献

The existence of linkage has been investigated between the Xg blood group system, two DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) located on the short arm of the X chromosome, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). No linkage was found between the Xg locus and the more proximal RFLP (L 1.28); close linkage between Xg and the more distal RFLP (lambda RC8) was also excluded. Both RFLPs show linkage with DMD but are not closely linked with each other. Analyses of 11 families with DMD and ten with BMD, informative for the Xg blood group, reinforce the conclusions of others that there is no measurable linkage between the loci for Xg and for the X-linked forms of muscular dystrophy. 相似文献

Abstract Genomic DNA was extracted from seven species of Verticillium and digested with the restriction endonucleases Eco RI or Hae III. Hybridization with an homologous V. albo-atrum ribosomal RNA gene probe revealed restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) which could differentiate V. lateritium, V. lecanii, V. nigrescens, V. nubilum and V. tricorpus . Digestion with Eco RI did not provide RFLPs which could distinguish between V. albo-atrum and V. dahliae . Digestion of genomic and mitochondrial DNA with Hae III showed distinctive patterns on ethidium bromide gels which allowed each species to be distinguished. Some intra-species variation in patterns occurred and a combination of mitochondrial and ribosomal RNA gene complex RFLPs has potential as an aid for the characterization of species and sub-species populations in the genes Verticillium . 相似文献

Nonhuman primates are particularly useful as animal models for common human diseases in which both genetic and environmental factors play important roles. The recent development of DNA markers (restriction fragment length polymorphisms, RFLPs) greatly increases the power of linkage analysis to detect major genes that affect quantitative phenotypes, including those related to diseases. This paper summarizes a strategy for using RFLPs in linkage analysis of baboon pedigrees to identify genes that control lipoprotein phenotype, which in turn is predictive of susceptibility to atherosclerosis. This strategy also can be applied to other common human diseases for which nonhuman primate models exist. 相似文献
