  • During the 100 years since the initial discovery of meiotic phenomenon many brilliant aspects have been elucidated, but further researches based on light microscopy alone as an experimental tool have been found to have some limits and shortcomings. By the use of electron microscopy and armed with the advanced knowledges on modern genetics and biochemistry it has been possible to applu molecular technology in gaining information on the detailed aspects of meiosis. As synapsis takes place, a three-layered proteinous structure called the synatonemal complex starts to form in the space between the homologous chromosomes. To be more precise, it begins to form along the paired chromosomes early in the prophase I of meiotic division. The mechanism that leads to precise point-by-point pairing between homologous chromocomes division. The mechamism that leads to precise point-by-point pairing between homologous chromosomes remains to be ascertained. Several items of information, however, suggest that chromsome alignment leading to synapsis may be mediated somehow by the nuclear membrane. Pachytene bivalents in eukaryotes are firmly attached to the inner niclear membrane at both termini. This attached begins with unpaired leptotene chromosomes that already have developed a lateral element. Once attached, the loptotene chromosomes begin to synapse. A number of different models have been proposed to account for genetic recombination via exchange between DNA strands following their breakage and subsequent reunion in new arrangement. One of the models accounting for molecular recombination leading to chromatid exchange and chiasma formation was first proposed in 1964 by Holliday, and 30 years later still a modified version of his model is favored. Nicks are made by endomuclease at corresponding sites on one strant of each DNA duplex in nonsister chromatid of a bivalent during prophase 1 of meiosis. The nicked strands loop-out and two strands reassociate into an exchanged arrangement, which is sealed by ligase. The remaining intact strand of each duplex is nicked at a site opposite the cross-over, and the exposed ends are digested by exonuclease action. Considerable progress has been made in recent years in the effort to define the molecular and organization features of the centromere region in the yeast chromosome. Centromere core region of the DNA duplex is flanked by 15 densely packed nucleosomes on ons side and by 3 packed nucleosomes on the other side, that is, 2000 bp on one side and 400 400 bp in the other side. All the telomeres of a given species share a common DNA sequence. Two ends of each chromosome are virtually identical. At the end of each chromosome there exist two kinds of DNA sequence" simple telpmeric sequences and telpmere-associated sequencies. Various studies of telomere replication, function, and behabior are now in progress, all greatly aided by molecular methods. During nuclear division in mitosis as well as in meiosis, the nucleili disappear by the time of metaphase and reappear during nuclear reorganizations in telophase. When telophase begins, small nucleoli form at the NOR of each nucleolar-organizing chromosome, enlarge, and fuse to form one or more large nucleoli. Nucleolus is a special structure attached top a specific nucleolar-organizing region located at a specific site of a particular chromosome. The nucleolus is a vertical factory for the synthesis of rRNAs and the assenbly of ribosome subunit precursors.sors.

  • The study was carried out to analyse the relationship between the frequency of accessory chromosomes in rye and soil property, such as pH, water content, P, N, K, Mg, and Ca. It was apparant that frequency of accessory chromosomes in rye was found to be higher in acidic soil than they are in basic soil. Chromosomal aberraton including translocation hetrozygote and broken centromere were found in the meiosis in PMC. It seems to be that more translocation heterozygote occurs in the plots of Paldang and Sinjangri where pH of soil shows high pH value.

  • 복잡한 진핵생물에서의 물리적 지도 작성이나 기능해석에 효모인공염색체(YAC)를 이용하기 위해서는 원하는 target region의 인공염색체화 및 single-copy인 YAC의 복제수를 늘이는 것이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 YAC manipulation system에 복제수 증폭시스템(copy number amplification system)을 도입한 Simultaneous YAC Manipulation-Amplification (SYMA) system을 구축하였다. 식물염색체를 가진 YAC clone의 splitting과 증폭을 위해 conditional centromere와 thymidine kinase (TK) 유전자를 가진 pBGTK plasmid를 구축하였고, splitting fragment의 PCR을 위한 주형으로 사용하였다. 590 kb의 YAC clone은 splitting과 동시에 copy number amplification element를 가진 100 kb YAC와 490 kb YAC로 분리되었고, 100 kb YAC는 유도기질로 3 mg/ml sulfanilamide와 $50\;{\mu}g/ml$ methotrexate (S3/M50)의 첨가에 의해 14.4배로 그 복제수가 증가하였음을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • This is a case report of 46,XY female phenotype (46,XY karyotype, no pubic hair, blind vagina and absence of uterus)in an 18-year-old patient. To confirm whether a Y chromosome has a structural abnormality, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) with the chromosome X/Y cocktail probe was simultaneously performed, and the six loci [PABY, RPS4Y(sy16, sy17), ZFY, DYS14] on the short arm, one locus (DYZ3) on the centromere and one locus (DYZ1) on the long arm were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The probes used FISH hybridized to centromere of the X chromosome and heterochromatin region (Yq12) of the Y chromosome, and all PCR related Y chromosome showed positive band like normal male. From the results obtained, it seemed that the Y chromosome from the 46,XY female was structurely normal. Especially, the SRY gene has been equated with the mammalian testis-determining factor, and absence or point mutation in the SRY gene causes XY female. To detect the point mutations of SRY sequences, single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) assay was used. Our results confirm that this patient has no mutation in the SRY gene on the Y chromosome.

  • 인체 MCAK 단백질을 Escherichia. coli에서 재조합 단백질로 발현하였다. 이를 SDS-PAGE 후 electroelution으로 정제하고 항원으로 사용하여 rat에서 다클론성 항체생성을 유도한 결과, 생성된 항체는 Western blot analysis에 의해 인체 MCAK 단백질 (81 kDa)을 특이적으로 인식할 수 있었으며, Jurkat T cells과 293T cells에 있어서 MCAK 단백질의 대부분이 핵 내에 위치함을 확인할 수 있었다. 세포주기에 따른 MCAK 단백질의 발현양의 변화를 조사하기 위해, Jurkat T cells을 Hydroxy urea 또는 Nocodazole의 처리로 $G_{1}/S$ boundary 그리고 $G_{2}/M$ boundary에 blocking하고 이로부터 release 시키는 시간을 달리하여 다양한 세포주기상에 위치한 Jurkat T cells을 확보하였다. 각각의 Jurkat T cells로부터 cell lysate를 얻어서 Western blot analysis를 시도한 결과, MCAK 발현양은 S phase에서 가장 높았으며 MCAK의 SDS-PAGE상의 mobility가 81 kDa에서 84 kDa로 shift됨을 확인하였다. MCAK의 전기영동상의 mobility shift에 의한 slow moving $p84^{HsMCAK}$는 S phase 후반부터 나타나기 시작하며 $G_{2}/M$ phase에 최대였고 $G_{1}$, phase에서는 확인되지 않았다. 이는 세포주기에 따라 MCAK의 단백질의 인산화 양상이 달라짐을 시사한다. 생성된 항체를 이용한 Immunocytochemical analysis의 결과, 인체 MCAK 단백질은 세포주기의 interphase에서는 주로 중심체와 핵에 존재하며, M phase의 각 단계에 따라서 spindle pole, centromere, spindle fiber 또는 midbody에 존재함을 확인하였다. 이러한 연구 결과는 E. coli에서 발현된 재조합 HsMCAK 단백질을 항원으로 하여 rat에서 생산한 다클론성 항체가 HsMCAK 단백질을 특이적으로 인식할 수 있음과 또한 HsMCAK 단백질의 인산화를 나타내는 SDS-PAGE상의 mobility-shift가 $G_{2}/M$ phase에 최대에 도달하는 양상으로 세포주기에 따라 변동됨을 나타내며, HsMCAK의 인산화와 HsMCAK의 세포 내 위치간의 관련성을 시사한다. 아울러 이러한 연구결과는 hamster 및 Xenopus 등에서 주로 연구되고 있는 MCAK의 세포주기상의 주요기능이 인체세포에도 적용될 수 있음을 시사한다.

  • Heteromorphisms of chromosome banding patterns can be useful markers for gene mapping and other kinds of genetic studies. In Japanese quail, the centromere region of chromosome No. 4 is the site of a heteromorphism. One form of the C-band at this region is relatively small ("a" form); an alternative form is much larger ("b" form). To identify the transmission patterns, all possible matings were made between birds with karyotype a/a, a/b, and b/b. The outcome from all crosses are entirely consistent with the expectation from simple Mendelian transmission. No evidence was found for segregation distortion or gametic selection. This dimorphism, therefore, is a reliable marker.

  • This experiment was carried out to identify the chromosomes of silkie. It was many difference from other breeds in morphology and characteristics. In this experiment, chromosomal analysis was used early embryos. In aspect of morphological chromosomes, chromosomal size and shape are similar to other breeds. The chromosomes of silkie were shown to morphlogy as follows. They were identified that chromosome #l and #2 were grouped as submentacentric, #3, #5 and #6 were telocentric #4 and #7 were acrocentric and #8 was metacentric chromosome. Zㆍsex chromosome was shown 5th, W-sex chromosome was 8th to 9th and they were metacentric chromosome, respectively. Each chromosome through the G-banding was shown the 3 dark bands in 1 p2, distinct light band in 1p1, dark band in 2p2, broad light band in 3pl, dark band from centromere and distal part in 4th chromosome and dark band in 5pl. Z-sex chromosome was shown dark at p-arm distal part.
