A dinucleotide repeat polymorphism at the Kallmann locus (Xp22.3).
نویسندگان
چکیده
Source and Description: Lambda clone 135 derived from a YAC from the CEPH library, mapping to an interval containing at least part of the Kallmann locus (1). DNA sequences flanking a (C-A)17 repeat of the lambda clone were used to design the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers. The polymorphism can be typed using PCR as previously described (2). Polymorphism: Five allelic fragments were resolved on DNA sequencing gels which differed in size from the predicted length (179 bp). These were termed Al, A2, A3, A4, A5 in ascending order of size.

Detection of gene deletions in children with chondrodysplasia punctata, ichthyosis, Kallmann syndrome, and ocular albinism by FISH studies.
BACKGROUND Contiguous gene syndrome (CGS) is characterized by a series of clinical features resulting from interstitial or terminal deletions of various adjacent genes. Several important genes have been identified in the Xp22.3 region to be responsible for genetically heterogeneous diseases. In this study, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) methods were used to detect the extent of gene ...

متن کاملVectorette PCR isolation of microsatellite repeat sequences using anchored dinucleotide repeat primers.
We have developed a vectorette PCR approach to provide an improved method for isolation of microsatellite repeats. The modified procedure relies on PCR amplification using a vectorette-specific primer in combination with one of a panel of anchored dinucleotide repeat primers. The target DNA to be screened for microsatellite sequences can be from YAC, P1, cosmid, bacteriophage or plasmid clones....

Background: Cytokines are cell signaling molecules which upon release by cells facilitate the recruitment of immune-modulatory cells towards the sites of inflammation. Genetic variations in cytokine genes are shown to regulate their production and affect the risk of infectious as well as autoimmune diseases. Intron-3 of interleukin-4 gene (IL-4) harbors 70-bp variable number of tandem repeats (...
