The cDNA encoding ribosomal protein S4(RPS 4) from an ovary cDNA library of the Japanese monkey (Macaca fuscata) was cloned and sequenced. The RPS4X gene from monkey X chromosome encodes a deduced protein of 263 amino acids and share 99.1% cDNA sequence similarity and 100% amino acid sequence identify with the human RPS4X. Rate of synonymous substitution was higher in RPS4Y than in RPS4X in comparison to the monkey and human. The ratio of synonymous and nonsynonymous substitutions per site indicated that directional selection has nor occurred in RPS4 genes. Phylogenetic analysis using the neighbor-joining method revealed that X and Y-linked RPS4 genes have evolved independently.

A number of research papers have reported more frequent occurrence of rheumatic/autoimmune disease among patients with hypogonadism or a chromosomal anomaly with potential X-chromosome defects. A 30-year-old female patient came to the hospital with a main cause of bilateral buttock pain, which began two years ago and worsened seven days ago. Ankylosing spondylitis with invasion of both sacral-iliac joints was observed. On magnetic resonance imaging, although the uterus was observed normally, an ovary was not observed. In a chromosome test, balanced reciprocal X-1 translocation of 46,X,t(X;1)(p10;q10) was diagnosed. Here, we report on the first case involving ankylosing spondylitis accompanied by balanced reciprocal X-1 translocation.

The present experiment was perform to investigate the frequencies of chromosome aberration with special regard to the chromosome groups and the various time intervals after X-irradiation (60 r) in ormal human foetus cells grown in culture. The cytological preparations were prepared at every 5 through 30 hours after X-irradiation by the air-drying method. 1. The frequencies of chormosome aberration are on the whole decreased as tie elapses after irradiation and this is thought to be due to gradual recovery with time . However, a slight increase in frequencies is observed at 25 and 30 hours after irradiation respectively. This shows that the cells at the these periods are more sensitivity to X-irradation , and those cells are thought to be at G$_2$ and late S stage at the time of irradiation respectively, so t is evident that G$_2$ and late S stages a the time of irradiation respectively , so it is evident that G$_2$ and late S stages are more sensitive to X-irradiation than any other stages. 2. The frequencies of chormosome aberration are decreased in descending order of chormosome group number. The differences among these frequencies are highly significant statistically . Therefore it can be concluded that there is a highly significant difference in radiosensitivity among chromosome groups. that is, the chromosomes of the group A are the most radiosensitive , followed by B, C, D ,E and G in descending order.

국내에 자생하는 황기속(Astragalus L.) 식물인 정선황기(A. koraiensis)의 핵형을 분석하고, 5S 및 45S rDNA 유전자를 이용한 FISH 실험에 기초하여 세포유전학적 연구를 수행하였다. 핵형 분석 결과, 정선황기의 체세포 염색체수는 2n = 16으로, 기본 염색체수는 x = 8임을 확인하였다. 염색체 조성은 6쌍의 중부염색체(염색체 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8)와 2쌍의 차중부염색체(염색체 2, 7)로 구성되었다. 정선황기의 염색체상에서의 FISH 결과, 1쌍의 45S rDNA signal이 5번 염색체의 동원체 부위에서 관찰되었고, 2쌍의 5S rDNA signal이 4번 염색체의 단완 말단부위와 7번 염색체의 동원체 부위에서 관찰되었다. 이는 기존의 황기 및 제주황기, 몽골황기(A. mongholicus) 와는 전혀 다른 FISH 패턴을 보이고 있어 정선황기가 고유종임을 암시하지만, 형태학적으로 유사한 갯황기(A. sikokianus) 및 A. bhotanensis 와의 비교연구를 수행하여 정확한 분류학적 처리가 이루어져야 할 것이다.

Protoplasts isolated from inbred lines of Brassica oleracea L. var capitata (cabbage) and Brassica campestris L. ssp. pekinensis (Chinese cabbage) were fused by PEG-mediated method, and somatic hybrid cells were differentiated into plants. for the identification of somatic hybrid plants, ploidy level, plant morphology, and cytological analysis were performed. All of the regenerated plants derived from fused protoplasts were shown to be 2X-4X, or higher ploidy level, presumably due to somatic hybridization or chromosome doubling. The morphology of leaves, petioles, and flowers showed an intermediate phenotype between Chinese cabbage and cabbage. Chromosome numbers in these somatic hybrids ranged mostly from 33 to 38. According to Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) pattern, signals from both fusion parents of B.campestris or B.oleracea were detected in different colors when chromosomes of putative somatic hybrids were observed.

xBrassicoraphanus line BB#5, a new synthetic intergeneric hybrid between Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis and Raphanus sativus L. var. rafiphera induced by N-methyl-N-nitroso-urethane mutagenesis in microspore culture, shows high seed fertility and morphological uniformity. Dual-color fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using 5S and 45S rDNA probes and genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) using B. rapa genomic DNA probe were carried out to analyze the chromosome composition and the meiosis pairing pattern compared to its parental lines. The somatic chromosome complement is 2n = 38, which consists of 17 metacentric and two submetacentric chromosomes with lengths of 2.18 to $5.01{\mu}m$. FISH karyotype analysis showed five and eight pairs of 5S and 45S rDNA loci. GISH meiosis pairing analysis showed that 19 complete bivalents were most frequent and accounted for 42% of the 100 pollen mother cells examined. Based on chromosome number, size, morphology, rDNA distribution, and meiosis pairing pattern, both parental genomes of B. rapa and R. sativus appear to exist in xBrassicoraphanus line BB#5, demonstrating its genome integrity. Such stable chromosome constitutions and meiotic pairing patterns in somatic and meiotic cells are very rare in natural and synthetic intergeneric hybrids. Chromosomal studies and genetic and phenotypic changes in allopolyploids a re discussed. The results p resented h erein will b e usef ul f or f urther g enomic s tudy o f xBrassicoraphanus lines and their improvement as promising new breeding varieties.

A wide range of techniques have been developed to separate X or Y- chromosome-bearing sperm. In particular, bovine semen sex-sorted by using flow cytometry based on differences in the amount of DNA between X and Y chromosome bearing sperm is used in dairy farms. The first piglets were produced using sex-sorted sperm 30 years ago. However, sexed sperm have not been commercially available in pigs because the flow cytometry technique is not capable of sorting the high number of sperm required for porcine artificial insemination (AI), and the prolonged exposure to an electrical filed might damage to the DNA in sperm. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a boar sperm sorting method based on magnetic nanoparticles. A flow cytometer assay verified the efficacy of the magnetic nanoparticles (> 90% of sex-sorted sperm). In addition, a duplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay using sex chromosome specific genes including SRY (sex-determining region Y; male), ZFY (zinc finger protein Y-linked; male), and ZFX (zinc finger protein X-linked; female) showed that in vitro fertilized porcine embryos by X and Y-chromosome bearing sperm were 100% female (40/40) and 72% female (35/48), respectively, at 8-cell or morula stages, suggesting that the sex-sorted sperm were fertile. In conclusion, our findings suggest that the sex-sorted method based on magnetic nanoparticles can be utilized for porcine sex-sorted AI.

The chromosome number of myoga ginger (Zingiber mioga (Thunb.) Roscoe: Zingiberaceae) has been reported as 2n = 22 for Chinese plants and 2n = 55 for Japanese plants. We checked the chromosome number of Z. mioga in plants collected in Jeollabuk-do and Jeollanam-do, Korea, and counted 2n = 44, the first report of this number for the species. As the basic chromosome number of Z. mioga is thought to be x = 11, Z. mioga plants in China, Korea, and Japan appear to be diploids, tetraploids, and pentaploids, respectively. In finding the tetraploid race of Z. mioga in Korea, we can hypothesize that the pentaploid race in Japan is derived through the fertilization of reduced gametes of the diploid race and unreduced gametes of the tetraploid race.

Chromosomal characteristics of New Zealane White rabbit was studied at meiosis and mitosis. The meiotic chromosomal preparations were mad with the modified air-drying method and karyotype analysis was performed with the G-banding technique, using isolated mitotic metapase chromosomes of the New Zealand White rabbit. Chromosomes, sex vesicles and centromeres could be classified in the zygotene and the pachytene of the meiosis I. The hair-like processes projecting laterally from the axes of bivalent chromosomes at the mid-to-late pachytene were observed and made the appearance of the lampbrush chromosome structure. Chromosomes could be classified onthe basis of the numbers and locations of chiasma in the diakinesis. Twenty-one autosomal bivalents and a single unequal terminally associated X-Y bivalent were observe during the late prophase and the metaphase of the meiosis I. Most of the bivalent types observed in the New Zealand White rabbit spermatrocytes were 1CH, 1TAl, and 2TA bivalents. The mean chiasma frequency(CF) of the male New Zealand White rabbit was 30.2 and it was found that the CF value tended to decrease through diakinesis and the metaphase I. The karyotype of the New Zealand White rabbit was a male chromosome number of 44(2n=44) comprising 8 pairs of metacentric, 9 pairs of submetacentric, 4 pairs o acrocentric autosomes, metacentric X chromosome and acrocentric Y chromosome.
