Abstract: | P1 clone libraries have now been established as effective complements to cosmid and yeast artificial chromosome libraries in long-range mapping projects. To allow general access to P1 clones, we have constructed human and mouse P1 libraries. Clones have been picked into microtiter plates and used to prepare high-density filter grids, providing an efficient and easy screening system. Filters are being made available to other laboratories through the Reference Library System. In this work, we have developed a reliable protocol for generating P1 clones, based on the use of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis for size selection of DNA. A 1.2× genome coverage human library has been produced using this method. A preliminary analysis of this library is described. |
