Engineering mammalian chromosomes.
Construction of a mammalian artificial chromosome (MAC) will develop our understanding of the requirements for normal chromosome maintenance, replication and segregation while offering the capacity for introducing genes into cells. Construction of MACs with telomere, centromere and replication function has been approached by two methods. The 'top down' strategy uses artificially induced chromos...
متن کاملMammalian Chromosomes in Vitro
The complete DNA replication sequence of the entire complement of chromosomes in the Chinese hamster may be studied by using the method of continuous H(3)-thymidine labeling and the method of 5-fluorodeoxyuridine block with H(3)-thymidine pulse labeling as relief. Many chromosomes start DNA synthesis simultaneously at multiple sites, but the sex chromosomes (the Y and the long arm of the X) beg...
متن کاملUptake of Mammalian Chromosomes by Mammalian Cells
Chromosomes isolated from mouse leukemia L1210 cells were taken up by mouse macrophages, HeLa cells, and rat embryo fibroblasts following simple exposure in vitro. The process, which resembles pinocytosis or phagocytosis, was traced by autoradiography of chromosomes prelabeled with thymidine-H(3), and by staining techniques and phase contrast microscopy. During the first six hours, the uptake o...

متن کاملTelomere directed fragmentation of mammalian chromosomes
Cloned human telomeric DNA can integrate into mammalian chromosomes and seed the formation of new telomeres. This process occurs efficiently in three established human cell lines and in a mouse embryonic stem cell line. The newly seeded telomeres appear to be healed by telomerase. The seeding of new telomeres by cloned telomeric DNA is either undetectable or very inefficient in non-tumourigenic...
