Abstract:
ABSTRACT Enolase-2 (ENO2), previously termed 14-3-2 protein, is an isozyme of enolase that is enriched in neuronal tissue. The gene coding for ENO2 was previously assigned to human chromosome 12. The present study presents data for a regional mapping of gene ENO2 using cell hybrids containing various deletions of human chromosome 12. These deletions were produced by treatment with chromosome-breaking agents. Cytogenetic analysis has allowed assignment of ENO2 to the short arm of chromosome 12, in the region of pter-pizos. This assignment is consistent with the segregation pattern of the 93 hybrid clones analysed. The segregation pattern has also established the linear order of 6 genes on chromosome 12: pter — TPI — GAPD — LDHB — ENO2— centromere — SHMT — PEPB — qter. Estimation of the relative distances between the 6 genes on chromosome 12 has been made by a statistical mapping analysis of the segregation data of the hybrid clones. A set of deletion hybrids containing various combinations of these 6 markers has been established for a rapid regional mapping of genes in one of these regions on chromosome 12.Keywords:

Twenty-three silver fox × hamster somatic cell hybrid clones were used to assign 15 fox genes: GPI to chromosome 1; PGD to chromosome 2; MDH2 to chromosome 3; ESD to chromosome 6; LDHB to chromosome 8; NP to chromosome 10; LDHA to chromosome 11; APRT, ENOl, and PGM1 to chromosome 12; IDH1 and MDH1 to chromosome 16; and GLA, G6PD, and HPRT to the X chromosome. High-resolution G-banding of human, cat, mink, and fox chromosomes containing homologous regions (according to genetic maps) revealed regions of putative homology. The results lend support to the suggestion that the most considerable karyotypic reorganization of the ancestral genome in the order Carnivora occurred during Canidae formation. The details of karyotypic evolution in mammals are discussed.

Mouse trisomy 16 has been proposed as an animal model of Down syndrome (DS), since this chromosome contains homologues of several loci from the q22 band of human chromosome 21. The recent mapping of the defect causing familial Alzheimer disease (FAD) and the locus encoding the Alzheimer amyloid beta precursor protein (APP) to human chromosome 21 has prompted a more detailed examination of the extent of conservation of this linkage group between the two species. Using anonymous DNA probes and cloned genes from human chromosome 21 in a combination of recombinant inbred and interspecific mouse backcross analyses, we have established that the linkage group shared by mouse chromosome 16 includes not only the critical DS region of human chromosome 21 but also the APP gene and FAD-linked markers. Extending from the anonymous DNA locus D21S52 to ETS2, the linkage map of six loci spans 39% recombination in man but only 6.4% recombination in the mouse. A break in synteny occurs distal to ETS2, with the homologue of the human marker D21S56 mapping to mouse chromosome 17. Conservation of the linkage relationships of markers in the FAD region suggests that the murine homologue of the FAD locus probably maps to chromosome 16 and that detailed comparison of the corresponding region in both species could facilitate identification of the primary defect in this disorder. The break in synteny between the terminal portion of human chromosome 21 and mouse chromosome 16 indicates, however, that mouse trisomy 16 may not represent a complete model of DS.

Summary The following loci, on human chromosome 13, have been newly assigned to sheep chromosome 10 using chromosomally characterized sheep‐hamster cell hybrids: gap junction protein, beta 2, 26 kDa (connexin 26) (GJB2); gap junction protein, alpha 3, 46 kDa (connexin 46) (GJA3), and esterase D/formylglutathione hydrolase (ESD). This assignment of ESD is consistent with comparative mapping evidence, but not with an earlier report of it on sheep chromosome 3p26‐p24. Cell hybrid analysis confirmed the location of another human chromosome 13 locus, retinoblastoma 1 (including osteosar‐coma) (RBI), and the anonymous ovine genomic sequence RP11 on sheep chromosome 10. Isotopic in situ hybridization was used to regionally localize RP11 on to sheep 10q15‐q22. The location of microsatellites AGLA226, OarDB3, OarHH41, OarVH58, and TGLA441, previously assigned to sheep chromosome 10 by linkage analysis, was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction using the cell hybrid panel. These mapping data provide further evidence that sheep chromosome 10 is the equivalent of cattle chromosome 12, and that these chromosomes show extensive conserved synteny with human chromosome 13.

Down syndrome is caused by a genomic imbalance of human chromosome 21 which is mainly observed as trisomy 21. The regions on human chromosome 21 are syntenically conserved in three regions on mouse chromosomes 10, 16 and 17. Ts65Dn mice, the most widely used model for Down syndrome, are trisomic for ∼56.5% of the human chromosome 21 syntenic region on mouse chromosome 16. To generate a more complete trisomic mouse model of Down syndrome, we have established a 22.9 Mb duplication spanning the entire human chromosome 21 syntenic region on mouse chromosome 16 in mice using Cre/ loxP -mediated long-range chromosome engineering. The presence of the intact duplication in mice was confirmed by fluorescent in situ hybridization and BAC-based array comparative genomic hybridization. The expression levels of the genes within the duplication interval reflect gene-dosage effects in the mutant mice. The cardiovascular and gastrointestinal phenotypes of the mouse model were similar to those of patients with Down syndrome. This new mouse model represents a powerful tool to further understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms of Down syndrome.
