We describe the construction and characterization of methylation-resistant sequence-tagged NotI linking clones specific for the X chromosome, referred to as NotI-BsuE linking clones. The approach consists of methylating the X-chromosome-specific cloned DNA with BsuE methylase (M. BsuE), an enzyme that methylates the first C residue in the CGCG sequence, followed by selection of the methylation-resistant NotI sites by insertion of a kanamycin-resistance gene in the clones cleavable by NotI. The frequent occurrence of NotI sites in CpG islands is expected to cause methylation of a large number of NotI sites with BsuE methylase, thereby rendering them resistant to NotI cleavage. Thus, the combination of M. BsuE and NotI yields less frequent cutting than the NotI alone. We have isolated, partially sequenced, and characterized 113 NotI-BsuE linking clones, and mapped 50 clones to various regions along the chromosome.

D012091 Repetitive Sequences, Nucleic Acid Sequences of DNA or RNA that occur in multiple copies. There are several types: INTERSPERSED REPETITIVE SEQUENCES are copies of transposable elements (DNA TRANSPOSABLE ELEMENTS or RETROELEMENTS) dispersed throughout the genome. TERMINAL REPEAT SEQUENCES flank both ends of another sequence, for example, the long terminal repeats (LTRs) on RETROVIRUSES. Variations may be direct repeats, those occurring in the same direction, or inverted repeats, those opposite to each other in direction. TANDEM REPEAT SEQUENCES are copies which lie adjacent to each other, direct or inverted (INVERTED REPEAT SEQUENCES).

D003001 Cloning, Molecular The insertion of recombinant DNA molecules from prokaryotic and/or eukaryotic sources into a replicating vehicle, such as a plasmid or virus vector, and the introduction of the resultant hybrid molecules into recipient cells without altering the viability of those cells. Molecular Cloning
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D015252 Deoxyribonucleases, Type II Site-Specific Enzyme systems containing a single subunit and requiring only magnesium for endonucleolytic activity. The corresponding modification methylases are separate enzymes. The systems recognize specific short DNA sequences and cleave either within, or at a short specific distance from, the recognition sequence to give specific double-stranded fragments with terminal 5'-phosphates. Enzymes from different microorganisms with the same specificity are called isoschizomers. EC 3.1.21.4.
