玉米有丝分裂染色体上玉米BAC探针的FISH杂交体系的构建

本研究分别探讨了玉米和水稻基因组c 0t DNA对探针的封阻、杂交后洗脱的严谨度、杂交液中FAD的浓度变化对BAC-FISH杂交的影响;探讨了玉米BAC探针中重复序列含量对FISH信号的影响.初步形成了一套以玉米BAC探针在玉米有丝分裂染色体上进行FISH杂交的优化技术体系.结果表明,玉米基因组c 0t DNA对探针封阻的c 0t值应小于50;而降低杂交液中FAD浓度和适度控制杂交后洗脱的严谨度,尤其是使用水稻基因组的c 0t 100 DNA封阻探针重复序列对BAC-FISH杂交信号特异性的改善具有明显的效果;同时,验证了选择重复序列含量较少的玉米BAC作为FISH杂交的探针也是获得特异性杂交信号的重要条件.

FISH技术在栉孔扇贝和虾夷扇贝杂交子代染色体识别中的运用初探

核糖体间隔序列(ITS)是扇贝基因组中进化较快的基因片段,研究利用虾夷扇贝(Patinopecten yessoen-sis)与栉孔扇贝(Chlamys farreri)在核糖体间隔区ITS-1基因的序列差异,构建了虾夷扇贝的种特异性荧光原位杂交(Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization,FISH)探针,并成功地将其运用于两种扇贝杂交子代的染色体识别和遗传变异分析中.研究结果表明,在适当的杂交和洗脱条件下,两扇贝ITS-1基因20.3%的差异已足够使虾夷扇贝ITS-1探针产生明显种特异性,探针只在虾夷扇贝分裂相第3对和第5对亚端部染色体或间期细胞上产生稳定的4个杂交信号,但在栉孔扇贝上并不产生明显的杂交信号;采用该探针对两扇贝的正反交子代染色体进行分析,结果表明所有杂交子代染色体分裂相均产生半数的杂交信号,与杂交种含半数的虾夷扇贝亲本染色体相符,杂交信号在杂交种染色体卜的数目和位置保持恒定,并未产生明显的变异;该结果证实了两扇贝的杂交为真正的精卵结合意义的杂交,子代对双亲遗传物质的继承仍以单倍染色体组的叠加为主;同时研究也表明ITS-1探针可有效地运用于杂交子代中特定染色体识别和跟踪过程中,对今后扇贝遗传变异系的识别和鉴定及进一步育种具有重要意义.

Fluorescent in situ Hybridization on Mitotic Chromosomes of Mosquitoes

Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) is a technique routinely used by many laboratories to determine the chromosomal position of DNA and RNA probes. One important application of this method is the development of high-quality physical maps useful for improving the genome assemblies for various organisms. The natural banding pattern of polytene and mitotic chromosomes provides guidance for the precise ordering and orientation of the genomic supercontigs. Among the three mosquito genera, namely Anopheles, Aedes, and Culex, a well-established chromosome-based mapping technique has been developed only for Anopheles, whose members possess readable polytene chromosomes ¹. As a result of genome mapping efforts, 88% of the An. gambiae genome has been placed to precise chromosome positions ^2,3 . Two other mosquito genera, Aedes and Culex, have poorly polytenized chromosomes because of significant overrepresentation of transposable elements in their genomes ^{4, 5, 6}. Only 31 and 9% of the genomic supercontings have been assigned without order or orientation to chromosomes of Ae. aegypti ⁷ and Cx. quinquefasciatus ⁸, respectively. Mitotic chromosome preparation for these two species had previously been limited to brain ganglia and cell lines. However, chromosome slides prepared from the brain ganglia of mosquitoes usually contain low numbers of metaphase plates ⁹. Also, although a FISH technique has been developed for mitotic chromosomes from a cell line of Ae. aegypti ¹⁰, the accumulation of multiple chromosomal rearrangements in cell line chromosomes ¹¹ makes them useless for genome mapping. Here we describe a simple, robust technique for obtaining high-quality mitotic chromosome preparations from imaginal discs (IDs) of 4^th instar larvae which can be used for all three genera of mosquitoes. A standard FISH protocol ¹² is optimized for using BAC clones of genomic DNA as a probe on mitotic chromosomes of Ae. aegypti and Cx. quinquefasciatus, and for utilizing an intergenic spacer (IGS) region of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) as a probe on An. gambiae chromosomes. In addition to physical mapping, the developed technique can be applied to population cytogenetics and chromosome taxonomy/systematics of mosquitoes and other insect groups.     

Determinants of Human Cyclin B1 Association with Mitotic Chromosomes

Cyclin B1–CDK1 activity is essential for mitotic entry, but questions remain regarding how the activity of this kinase is spatially regulated. Previous studies showed that the cyclin B1 subunit localizes to several compartments of a mitotic cell, including the centrosomes, mitotic spindle, kinetochores and chromosomes via distinct sequence elements. Mitotic chromosome association occurs through the unstructured N-terminal domain of cyclin B1 and is independent of CDK1 binding. Here, we use live cell imaging of human cyclin B1 fused to GFP to precisely define the sequence elements within cyclin B1 that mediate its association with condensed mitotic chromosomes. We find that a short, evolutionarily conserved N-terminal motif is required for cyclin B1 to localize to mitotic chromosomes. We further reveal a role for arginine residues within and near the destruction box sequence in the chromosome association of cyclin B1. Additionally, our data suggest that sequences further downstream in cyclin B1, such as the cytoplasmic retention sequence and the cyclin box, may negatively modulate chromosome association. Because multiple basic residues are required for cyclin B1 association with mitotic chromosomes, electrostatic interactions with DNA may facilitate cyclin B1 localization to chromosomes.

Assignment of YAC Clones Spanning Rice Chromosomes 10 and 12

Yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) clones were assigned on rice(Oryza sativa L. cv. Nipponbare) chromosomes 10 and 12 usingDNA markers from our high-density linkage map. Out of 1,383markers localized in this genetic map, 68 and 74 markers werelocated on chromosomes 10 and 12, respectively. Screening ofthe YAC genomic library was conducted by colony hybridizationand Southern hybridization using restriction fragment lengthpolymorphism (RFLP) markers or by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) using sequence-tagged site (STS) markers. We have completedthe screening of 68 markers on chromosome 10 and 74 markerson chromosome 12. A total of 134 and 103 YACs were assignedto chromosomes 10 and 12, respectively, with an estimated coverageof more than 60% for chromosome 10 and about 47% for chromosome12. As rice is considered a model plant for genome analysis,the ordered YAC clones on chromosomes 10 and 12 as well as otherchromosomes will certainly be helpful for isolation of agronomicallyand biologically important genes and for understanding the genomestructure of these chromosomes.

Localization of Human Ribosomal Gene DNA Probes on Barley Chromosomes

To estimate the possibility of plant genome mapping using human genome probes, the probes fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) of human 18S–28S rDNA (clon 22F9 from the LA-13NCO1 library) was carried out on chromosomes of the spring barleyHordeum vulgareL. As a control, wheat rDNA probe (clon pTa71) was taken. Hybridization of the wheat DNA probe revealed two major labelling sites on mitotic barley chromosomes 5I (7H) and 6I (6H), as well as several minor sites. With the human DNA probe, signals were detected in the major sites of the ribosomal genes on chromosomes 5I (7H) and 6I (6H) only when the chromosome preparations were obtained using an optimized technique with obligatory pepsin treatment followed by hybridization. Thus, this study demonstrates that physical mapping of plant chromosomes with human DNA probes that are 60 to 70% homologous to the plant genes is possible. It suggests principal opportunity for the FISH mapping of plant genomes using probes from human genome libraries, obtained in the course of the total sequencing of the human genomes and corresponding to the coding regions of genes with known functions.
