Assessment of Yqh translocations.
Two initially presumed Yqh translocations, one to Xp and another to 21p, were assessed by conventional banding procedures, 5-azacytidine treatment, electron microscopy, and fluorescence in situ hybridisation. While the Yqh nature of the heterochromatic block from Xp was confirmed, this was not the case with the 21ph+ variant. In conclusion, conventional banding techniques are insufficient to di...
متن کاملSwitching on chromosomal translocations.
Activation-induced deaminase initiates three different antibody diversification reactions: class switch recombination, somatic hypermutation (SHM), and gene conversion. We have shown that, in addition to antibody diversification, activation-induced deaminase can also initiate Burkitt's lymphoma-like c-myc/IgH translocations. However, distinct DNA damage- and oncogene-induced checkpoints operate...
متن کاملPhysiology in conservation translocations
Conservation translocations aim to restore species to their indigenous ranges, protect populations from threats and/or reinstate ecosystem functions. They are particularly important for the conservation and management of rare and threatened species. Despite tremendous efforts and advancement in recent years, animal conservation translocations generally have variable success, and the reasons for...
متن کاملOn Sorting by Translocations
The study of genome rearrangements is an important tool in comparative genomics. This paper revisits the problem of sorting a multichromosomal genome by translocations, i.e., exchanges of chromosome ends. We give an elementary proof of the formula for computing the translocation distance in linear time, and we give a new algorithm for sorting by translocations, correcting an error in a previous...
متن کاملTranslocations in Dictyostelium discoideum.
Fourteen translocations of independent origin were identified in Dictyostelium discoideum on the basis of segregation anomalies of diploids heterozygous for these chromosome rearrangements, all of which led to the cosegregation of unlinked markers. Many of these translocations were discovered in strains mutagenized with MNNG or in strains carrying mutations affecting DNA repair; however, sponta...
