A rapid and efficient gene-cloning method was developed using oligodeoxyribonucleotide probes (approx. 30-mer) immobilized by their 5' terminal to the gel (LiChrosphare Si1000; used for high-performance liquid chromatography). The method allowed us to concentrate DNA fragments having a particular base sequence in an eppendorf tube with very high efficiency within 2 h. For example, genomic DNA encoding the human fibronectin gene (fn) was concentrated by this method and cloned into lambda Charon4A vector. Screening of the concentrated genomic DNA library for the 5' region of the human fn gene showed that approx. 30% of 3000 recombinant phages tested were positive clones. Various factors affecting cloning efficiency were investigated.

D008969 Molecular Sequence Data Descriptions of specific amino acid, carbohydrate, or nucleotide sequences which have appeared in the published literature and/or are deposited in and maintained by databanks such as GENBANK, European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), National Biomedical Research Foundation (NBRF), or other sequence repositories. Sequence Data, Molecular,Molecular Sequencing Data,Data, Molecular Sequence,Data, Molecular Sequencing,Sequencing Data, Molecular
D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.

D005353 Fibronectins Glycoproteins found on the surfaces of cells, particularly in fibrillar structures. The proteins are lost or reduced when these cells undergo viral or chemical transformation. They are highly susceptible to proteolysis and are substrates for activated blood coagulation factor VIII. The forms present in plasma are called cold-insoluble globulins.
