RmInt1 is a group II intron of Sinorhizobium meliloti which was initially found within the insertion sequence ISRm2011-2. Although the RmInt1 intron-encoded protein lacks a recognizable endonuclease domain, it is able to mediate insertion of RmInt1 at an intron-specific location in intronless ISRm2011-2 recipient DNA, a phenomenon termed homing. Here we have characterized three additional insertion sites of RmInt1 in the genome of S.meliloti. Two of these sites are within IS elements closely related to ISRm2011-2, which appear to form a characteristic group within the IS630-Tc1 family. The third site is in the oxi1 gene, which encodes a putative oxide reductase. The newly identified integration sites contain conserved intron-binding site (IBS1 and IBS2) and δ′ sequences (14 bp). The RNA of the intron-containing oxi1 gene is able to splice and the oxi1 site is a DNA target for RmInt1 transposition in vivo. Ectopic transposition of RmInt1 into the oxi1 gene occurs at 20-fold lower efficiency than into the homing site (ISRm2011-2) and is independent of the major RecA recombination pathway. The possibility that transposition of RmInt1 to the oxi1 site occurs by reverse splicing into DNA is discussed. 相似文献

The frequency of small supernumerary marker chromosomes has been estimated to approximately 0.45 per 1000 newborns. They are usually seen as single marker chromosomes in a mosaic state. Two cytogenetically identical markers have been observed only occasionally. We report on a boy, with congenital heart defect, neonatal hypotonia, hypogenitalism, delayed psychomotor development and mild dysmorphic facial features. The GTG karyotype performed on peripheral blood lymphocytes revealed a mosaic male karyotype with three cell lines. One cell line had a normal karyotype. In the other two either single or double chromosome 6 derived supernumerary markers were present, leading to partial trisomy or partial tetrasomy of chromosome 6, respectively. 相似文献

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) mostly occurs as a complication of induction of ovulation. However, rarely, it may occur spontaneously at the beginning of a natural pregnancy and in the absence of any assisted reproductive treatment. Spontaneous OHSS has been reported in pregnant women affected by hypothyroidism, polycystic ovary syndrome, gonadotropin-producing pituitary adenoma, but also in normal pregnancies. The aetiology of this condition is still unclear. We hereby report on a case of spontaneous, familial, recurrent OHSS in a 26-year-old primipara whose first-degree cousin, paternal grandmother and a number of other members of her father's family had suffered from a similar condition. This case seems to support the concept of a genetic predisposition for spontaneous OHSS thereby suggesting the need for preventive and therapeutic strategies. 相似文献

Short stature is a well-recognized feature of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, whilst it has been reported rarely in Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). Here we report two brothers with BMD, who exhibited a very different growth pattern. Whereas in the short brother (-2.2 SDS) molecular investigation revealed a G367A mutation in the short stature homeobox containing (SHOX) gene located in the Xp22.3 region, no abnormality was found in the brother with normal height (-0.1 SDS). Our data suggest that abnormal growth observed in a boy with BMD may be related to an additional genetic alteration, already known as correlated with short stature. 相似文献
