Integrative selection of human chromosome-specific yeast artificial chromosomes.
Human specific "integrative selection vectors" (ISVs) were designed to optimize integration of a yeast-selectable marker specifically into yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) derived from human but not mouse DNA. ISVs were transformed into a YAC genomic library constructed from DNA of a human-mouse somatic cell hybrid containing chromosome 21 (HSA21) as the only human chromosome. One percent of...
متن کاملConstruction of human chromosome 21-specific yeast artificial chromosomes.
Chromosome 21-specific yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) have been constructed by a method that performs all steps in agarose, allowing size selection by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and the use of nanogram to microgram quantities of DNA. The DNA sources used were hybrid cell line WAV-17, containing chromosome 21 as the only human chromosome and flow-sorted chromosome 21. The transformati...
متن کاملYeast artificial chromosome segregation from host chromosomes with similar lengths.
We propose a new method for segregation of yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) from endogenous yeast chromosomes with similar lengths. The method is based on recently developed PNA-assisted rare cleavage (PARC) of genomic DNA. We apply the PARC procedure to YAC-containing samples of yeast DNA in such a way that host chromosomes, which electrophoretically comigrate with the chosen YACs, are sele...
متن کاملA high-fidelity physical map of human chromosome 21q in yeast artificial chromosomes.
Understanding of the human genome has been advanced significantly by the development of large DNA fragment libraries. To create a map of chromosome 21q that integrates the physical, cytogenetic, and linkage maps, we have characterized a subset of 127 chromosome 21 yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) clones for size, by pulsed field gel electrophoresis, for chimerism and cytogenetic location, by f...
متن کاملLow-frequency chimeric yeast artificial chromosome libraries from flow-sorted human chromosomes 16 and 21.
Construction of chromosome-specific yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) libraries from sorted chromosomes was undertaken (i) to eliminate drawbacks associated with first-generation total genomic YAC libraries, such as the high frequency of chimeric YACs, and (ii) to provide an alternative method for generating chromosome-specific YAC libraries in addition to isolating such collections from a tota...
