Previous studies have defined the region of Chr 6 responsible as lying proximal to the T6Ad translocation breakpoint in G-band 6B3. Evidence presented here with a new Chr 6 translocation T77H has substantially reduced the size of the imprinting region, locating it between G-band 6A3.2 and the centromere. The paternally expressed imprinted gene Mest had been mapped within the original imprinting region and was therefore a candidate for the early embryonic lethality. FISH has shown that Mest locates distal to T77H and therefore outside the redefined imprinting region. This evidence confirms that Mest is not a candidate for the early embryonic lethality found with two maternal copies of proximal Chr 6. Furthermore mice with maternal duplication for Ch 6 distal to T77H (MatDp.dist6) were found to be growth retarded at birth, the weight reduction remaining similar until adulthood. It can be concluded that the growth retardation is established in utero and is maintained at a similar level from birth to adulthood. Therefore Mest locates in a new imprinting region, distal to G-band 6A3.2 which affects growth. A targeted mutation of Mest has been reported that exhibits growth retardation, reduced postnatal survival and abnormal maternal behaviour. Here the phenotype of MatDp.dist6 mice is compared to that of Mest-deficient mutant mice. Unlike the latter, MatDp.dist6 mice have good survival rates and females have normal maternal behaviour. Possible reasons for these differences are discussed.</p>","PeriodicalId":10982,"journal":{"name":"Cytogenetics and cell genetics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000056794","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21947044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It binds to the guanine nucleotide exchange factor Vav1 involved in thymocyte selection and is possibly involved in the Vav1 dependent pathway of TCR signaling (Hobert et al., 1996). This makes the zyxin gene (Zyx) a putative candidate for the rat diabetes susceptibility gene, Iddm1, also known as Lyp. A mutation in the latter gene is responsible for a profound T cell lymphopenia that resembles the lymphopenia of Vav1KO mice. In addition, the human zyxin-gene is located very close to a number of genes mapping in the vicinity of Iddm1 in the rat (Zumbrunn and Trueb, 1998). We therefore proposed Zyx as a positional candidate for rat Iddm1. In this study we have mapped Zyx with a rat radiation hybrid (RH) panel using mouse-derived primers for PCR amplification and detection of a Single-Strand Conformational Polymorphism between hamster and rat. The amplified rat segment was 95% identical to mouse Zyx. We positioned Zyx to rat chromosome 4 between markers Prss1 and D4Mit5. Since Iddm1 is positioned between markers D4Rat75 and Npy this excludes Zyx as a candidate gene for Iddm1.

Recently a new member of this family, human GPR14, has been cloned (Ames et al., 1999). This gene is expressed mainly in cardiovascular tissue and the GPR14 protein is able to mobilize intracellular Ca2+ in response to human urotensin-II and effectively constricts arteries. The translated sequence of NB1-680 is 100% identical to GPR14 protein in a 389 aa overlap (or 99% over a 1,166-bp overlap, two nucleotide changes).

These aberrations include decondensation of centromere-adjacent (qh) heterochromatin, multiradial chromosomes with up to 12 arms, and whole-arm deletions. We demonstrate that lymphoblastoid cell lines from two ICF patients exhibit these Chr1 and Chr16 anomalies in 61% of the cells and continuously generate 1qh or 16qh breaks. No other consistent chromosomal abnormality was seen except for various telomeric associations, which had not been previously noted in ICF cells. Surprisingly, multiradials composed of arms of both Chr1 and Chr16 were favored over homologous associations and cells containing multiradials with 3 or >4 arms almost always displayed losses or gains of Chr1 or Chr16 arms from the metaphase. Our results suggest that decondensation of 1qh and 16qh often leads to unresolved Holliday junctions, chromosome breakage, arm missegregation, and the formation of multiradials that may yield more stable chromosomal abnormalities, such as translocations. These cell lines maintained the abnormal hypomethylation in 1qh and 16qh seen in ICF tissues. The ICF-specific hypomethylation occurs in only a small percentage of the genome, e.g., ICF brain DNA had 7% less 5-methylcytosine than normal brain DNA. The ICF lymphoblastoid cell lines, therefore, retain not only the ICF-specific pattern of chromosome rearrangements, but also of targeted DNA hypomethylation.
