A rapid method for localizing large numbers of complete cosmids by nonradioactive in situ hybridization is described. The cosmids are nick translated in the presence of biotin-16-dUTP, incubated with an excess of sonicated human DNA, and used as a probe for in situ hybridization. Sites of hybridization are detected by successive treatments with FITC-labeled avidin and biotinylated anti-avidin antibody. Fifty-two cosmids were localized on chromosome 16 in 5 d relative to translocation breakpoints contained in two cell lines. Rapid identification of chromosome 16 was achieved by cohybridization with a chromosome 16-specific centromeric repeat probe.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008856 Microscopy, Fluorescence Microscopy of specimens stained with fluorescent dye (usually fluorescein isothiocyanate) or of naturally fluorescent materials, which emit light when exposed to ultraviolet or blue light. Immunofluorescence microscopy utilizes antibodies that are labeled with fluorescent dye. Fluorescence Microscopy,Immunofluorescence Microscopy,Microscopy, Immunofluorescence,Fluorescence Microscopies,Immunofluorescence Microscopies,Microscopies, Fluorescence,Microscopies, Immunofluorescence
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.
