一个46,XY"女性"不育症家系的遗传学分析

运用常规的染色体G带分析和基因分析技术对-46,XY男性女性化家系进行遗传学分析,发现：先证者及其妹妹的染色体核型为46,XY,其母亲和父亲的核型正常;对睾丸决定基因（SRY）和雄激素受体基因（AR）进行突变检测,在SRY基因的整个编码区中没有发现突变,而AR基因的第7个外显子的第840个密码子由CGT（编码精氨酸）变为CAT（编码组氨酸）,这一改变可能是导致核型为46,XY女性化而发生不育。

Genetic Analysis of a Family with 46, XY “Female” Associated with Infertility

Genetic analysis of a family with 46, XY “female” associated with infertility was performed using the conventional G-banding and gene mutation screening. The karyotypes of the two female patients were 46, XY and those of their parents were normal. The mutation screenings in sex-determining region Y (SRY) gene and androgen receptor (AR) gene were carried out. No mutation has been found in the whole coding sequence of SRY gene. The mutation of codon 840 CGT (arginine) to CAT (histidine) of AR gene led to the infertility in the patients. The patients showed androgen insensitivity. The clinical phenotype of theirs presented more deleteriously than and different from the one reported before, though they had the same mutation of codon 840 CGT (arginine) to CAT (histidine) of AR gene, which was very different from the mutation of 840 CGT (arginine) to TGT (cysteine) at the same codon.     

Synaptonemal Complex Analysis in Oocytes and Spermatocytes of Threespine Stickleback Gasterosteus Aculeatus (Teleostei, Gasterosteidae)

A surface-spreading synaptonemal complex (SC) technique was employed to analyze spermatocytes and oocytes of stickleback, Gasterosteus aculeatus, in order to visualize the process of chromosome synapsis. The mean SC length was 150±18m in three males and 143±12m in one female analyzed. A representative SC karyotype with 21bivalents was also presented. Each SC had lateral elements of equal length. No bivalent displaying the atypical synaptic behaviour which is often associated with heteromorphic sex chromosomes was observed neither in males nor in the female analyzed.

46,XX, der(15),t(Y;15)(q12;p11) karyotype in an azoospermic male

We report on a Yq/15p translocation in a 23-year-old infertile male referred for Klinefelter Syndrome testing, who had azoospermia and bilateral small testes. Hormonal studies revealed hypergonadotropic hypogonadism. Conventional cytogenetic procedures giemsa trypsin giemsa (GTG) and high resolution banding (HRB) and molecular cytogenetic techniques Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) performed on high-resolution lymphocyte chromosomes revealed the karyotype 46,XX, t(Y;15)(q12;p11). SRY-gene was confirmed to be present by classical Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) methods. His father carried de novo derivative chromosome 15 [45,X, t(Y;15)(q12;p11)] and was fertile; the karyotype of the father using G-band technique confirmed a reciprocal balanced translocation between chromosome Y and 15. In the proband, the der (15) has been inherited from the father because the mother had a normal karyotype (46,XX). In the proband, the der (15) could have produced genetic imbalance leading to unbalanced robertson translocation between chromosome Y and 15, which might have resulted in azoospermia and infertility in the proband. The paternal translocation might have lead to formation of imbalanced ova, which might be resulted infertility in the proband. Sister''s karyotypes was normal (46,XX) while his brother was not analyzed.     

46,XY女性性反转患者SRY基因启动子区一个新的点突变及其功能分析

通过ＤＮＡ序列测定在一名４６,ＸＹ女性性反转患者ＳＲＹ基因启动子区发现了一个新的突变：ｎｔ．－８１Ｇ→Ａ．该突变不见于正常男性,因此不是ＤＮＡ多态性．为了检测这一点突变对ＳＲＹ基因表达功能的影响,构建了分别由正常或突变的人ＳＲＹ基因启动子区片段调控氯霉素乙酰转移酶（ＣＡＴ）报告基因表达的两个质粒,寡核苷酸探针杂交证实该启动子片段正常或携带有Ｇ→Ａ突变．这两个质粒分别与ｐＳＶ－β－半乳糖苷酶内对照质粒共转染ＨｅＬａ细胞后,瞬间表达分析显示这一突变对ＣＡＴ酶活性水平无显著影响（０．５０＞Ｐ＞０．２０）．上述正常和突变的ＳＲＹ基因启动子片段与Ｋ５６２细胞核抽提物的凝胶阻滞实验也表明,突变对Ｋ５６２细胞核蛋白与ＳＲＹ基因启动子区的结合影响不大．研究ＳＲＹ基因的表达调控对阐明人的性别决定机制及性反转的病理机制具有重要意义     

Translocation of c-abl oncogene and PDGFB (c-sis) gene in a case of CML with 46,XY, t(22;22)

In a case of CML with a variant Philadelphia translocation (Ph1 or Ph) t(22;22) (q11;q13) in bone marrow cells and unstimulated peripheral blood cells, no cytogenetically detectable involvement of chromosome 9 was observed. Southern blot experiments using probes specific for bcr and c-sis however revealed rearrangement of the bcr, but not of PDGFB (c-sis) gene. Northern blot analysis of bone marrow RNA showed a very weak signal with the c-sis probe, while in a lymph-node biopsy PDGFB m-RNA could not be detected. Chromosomal in situ hybridization gave evidence for translocation of c-abl from chromosome 9 to Ph and of PDGFB from chromosome 22 to chromosome 9, as the result of a threefold translocation t(9;22;22).     

18p deletion syndrome with a 45, XY, t (14; 18) (p11;q11.2), -18, karyotype.

A dysmorphic male child of 8 months age presented with microphthalmia, micrognathia, hypertelorism, wide anterior fontanelles, large forehead, short neck, prominent ears, macrotestis and delayed developmental milestones. The patient presented with generalised seizures hydrocephalaus and Coarctation of aorta (Pre subclavian). He also had mild hypocalcaemia with normal renal function. Cytogenetic study revealed 18p(-) picture due to translocation between 14 p & 18q. Since the spectrum of clinical expression is similar to that is seen in 18p(-) syndrome it is suggested that not only whole of 18p but part of chromosome no. 18 proximal to 18 q 11.2 may also be involved in this phenotype.     

Breakpoints of t(4;11) translocations in the human MLL and AF4 genes in ALL patients are preferentially clustered outside of high-affinity matrix attachment regions.

Chromosomal translocations t(4;11) are based on illegitimate recombinations between the human MLL and AF4 genes, and are associated with high-risk acute leukemias of infants and young children. Here, the question was asked, whether a correlation exists between the location of translocation breakpoints within both genes and the location of S/MARs. In "halo mapping experiments" (to define SARs), about 20 kb of MLL DNA was found to be attached to the nuclear matrix. Similar experiments performed for the translocation partner gene AF4 revealed that SARs are spanning nearly the complete breakpoint cluster region of the AF4 gene. By using short DNA fragments in "scaffold reassociation experiments" (to define MARs), similar results were obtained for both genes. However, Distamycin A competition experiments in combination with "scaffold reassociation experiments" revealed specific differences in the affinity of each tested DNA fragment to bind the isolated nuclear matrix proteins. When the latter data were compared with the known location of chromosomal breakpoints for both genes, an unexpected correlation was observed. DNA areas with strong MAR affinity contained fewer translocation breakpoints, while areas with weak or absent MAR affinity showed a higher density of chromosomal breakpoints.
