Two long repeats, MS3 and MS4, are predominantly located in sex-chromosomal heterochromatin in common vole species [1]. Their tandem arrangement was revealed by means of the PCR analysis of genomic DNAs of four Microtus species and by restriction mapping of clones selected from a M. rossiaemeridionalis genomic library. Several mobile elements proved to be incorporated in a monomeric unit of each repeat and amplified together with its other components. In addition, LINE inserts were found in MS4 tandem arrays. The copy number of both repeats per haploid genome was estimated at 100–300 for euchromatin and 20,000–40,000 for the M. rossiaemeridionalis genome. The repeats were assumed to be the major component of sex-chromosomal heterochromatin DNA. 相似文献

Exon-intron structure of the Xist gene in elephant, armadillo, and the ancestor of placental mammals
The Xist gene belongs to the class of long noncoding regulatory RNA genes which play a key role in the process of inactivation of one of the X chromosomes in females of placental mammals. Based on interspecific comparative sequence analysis performed using a set ofbioinformatic programs and approaches, the exon-intron gene structure was first described in two species, elephant and armadillo, belonging to the most primitive placental mammal groups, Afrotheria and Xenarthra. Using multiple sequence alignment of the species representing all main groups of placental mammals (12 species), consensus sequence of the ancestral gene was reconstructed. In the gene structure four evolutionary conserved regions with the identity level of 90% and the sizes of more than 100 bp were identified. Substantial contribution of transposable elements to the gene origin, as well as mosaic evolution of certain elements of the Xist locus was demonstrated. It is likely that the ancestral gene consisted often exons and was formed before the radiation of placental mammals, in the period from 140 to 105 Myr ago. 相似文献

A bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library constructed from the short arm of rye (Secalecereale L.) chromosome 1R has been screened for clones containing copies of the pSc200 tandem repeat family, most abundant in rye
subtelomeric heterochromatin. The molecular organization of the monomer array and adjacent sequences has been studied in BAC-126/C20.
Digestion of the array with various restriction endonucleases reveals no higher-order organization. The DNA adjacent to the
pSc200 array consists of different repeats, including retrotransposon derivatives and another tandemly repeated family, termed
XbaI, with a monomer length of 576 bp, 475 of which show 82% similarity to the long terminal repeat of the known Cereba retrotransposon. Sequencing of the 13 kb long genomic region in BAC-126/C20 revealed a direct junction of the pSc200 and
XbaI monomers. The arrays of both families terminate at the same AT-rich sequence CAAAAAT. Another recombination signal is the
presence of palindromes in the close proximity to the junction site. The presence of microhomologies promotes the action of
proteins involved in double-strand DNA break repair. To our knowledge, it is the first discovery of the direct junction of
monomers that are longer than 100 bp and belong to different families of plant tandem repeats. 相似文献

A population of Stratiomys japonica, a species belonging to the family Stratiomyidae (Diptera), common name ‘soldier flies’, occurs in a hot volcanic spring, which is apparently among the most inhospitable environments for animals because of chemical and thermal conditions. Larvae of this species, which naturally often experience temperatures more than 40 °C, have constitutively high concentrations of the normally inducible heat-shock protein Hsp70, but very low level of corresponding mRNA. Larvae of three other species of the same family, Stratiomys singularior, Nemotelus bipunctatus and Oxycera pardalina, are confined to different type semi-aquatic habitats with contrasting thermal regime. However, all of them shared the same pattern of Hsp70 expression. Interestingly, heat-shock treatment of S. japonica larvae activates heat-shock factor and significantly induces Hsp70 synthesis, whereas larvae of O. pardalina, a species from constant cold environment, produce significantly less Hsp70 in response to heat shock. Adults of the four species also exhibit lower, but detectable levels of Hsp70 without heat shock. Larvae of all species studied have very high tolerance to temperature stress in comparison with other Diptera species investigated, probably representing an inherent adaptive feature of all Stratiomyidae enabling successful colonization of highly variable and extreme habitats. 相似文献

The tandemly arranged MS4 repeat with monomeric units of 4.1 kb is species-specifically distributed in heterochromatin of sex chromosomes of four common vole species of genus Microtus, group arvalis [1, 2]. In this work, we studied the genomic organization of the MS4 homolog in euchromatin of the X chromosome of M. arvalis. It has been shown by analyzing the phage genomic clones that one MS4 copy makes a part of a monomeric unit exceeding 8.5 kb that also includes a new MS7 repeat and, possibly, LINE fragments. MS7 is located together with MS4 in heterochromatin of common vole sex chromosomes, but in a substantially lesser amount. Probably, as a result of an evolutionary transition of an original repeat from euchromatin of the X chromosome to heterochromatin of the Y chromosome, MS4 underwent multiple amplification, and MS7 spread throughout heterochromatin, being surrounded by the MS4 tandem arrays. 相似文献
