Ten single-copy DNA probes derived from a human chromosome 3-specific genomic library were mapped by in situ hybridization to subregions of this chromosome. Seven sequences were assigned to subregions of 3q and two sequences were assigned to subregions of 3p. One single-copy DNA probe was assigned to the centromeric region of chromosome 3 by Southern blot analysis of DNA isolated from a somatic cell hybrid containing centromeric sequences of this chromosome. These DNA clones mapped by in situ hybridization can provide useful landmarks for mapping various disease loci on chromosome 3. They may also be useful for the generation of physical and genetic maps.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
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).

D015342 DNA Probes Species- or subspecies-specific DNA (including COMPLEMENTARY DNA; conserved genes, whole chromosomes, or whole genomes) used in hybridization studies in order to identify microorganisms, to measure DNA-DNA homologies, to group subspecies, etc. The DNA probe hybridizes with a specific mRNA, if present. Conventional techniques used for testing for the hybridization product include dot blot assays, Southern blot assays, and DNA:RNA hybrid-specific antibody tests. Conventional labels for the DNA probe include the radioisotope labels 32P and 125I and the chemical label biotin. The use of DNA probes provides a specific, sensitive, rapid, and inexpensive replacement for cell culture techniques for diagnosing infections.
