An integrated transcript map of human chromosome 1p35-p36

Genomics

Abstract

The distal short arm of human chromosome 1 (1p) is rearranged in a variety of malignancies, and several genetic diseases also map to this region. We have constructed an integrated transcript map to precisely define the positions of genes and expressed sequence tags (ESTs) previously mapped to 1p35-p36, a region spanning approximately 40 Mb. To anchor the integrated map, a framework genetic map was constructed with 24 genetic markers and a marker order of 1000:1 odds, yielding an average resolution of 2.8 cM. An additional 106 genetic markers were localized relative to the framework genetic map. To place markers more precisely within 1p35-p36, a chromosome 1-specific, radiation-reduced hybrid (RH) panel was created. Individual DNA fragments of the RH panel were identified and ordered by PCR with the framework genetic map. A total of 250 markers, including 142 genes and ESTs, were mapped by PCR against the RH panel. The map has an observed resolution of 800 kb, and the results closely match and more precisely define previous mapping information for most markers. This map will help to identify candidate genes for genetic diseases mapping to distal 1p and is fully integrated with existing genetic and RH maps of the human genome.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
