To study the nucleotide sequence from the pericentric heterochromatin associated with the nuclear envelope, a residual DNA was extracted from the DNAse-treated nuclear lamins of Drosophila melanogaster tissue culture cell line Kc. The isolated DNA was cloned in lambda vector. The DNA library obtained was screened for the clones homologous to the pericentric heterochromatin. The experiments on in situ hybridization to the polytene chromosome of the nurse cell nuclei of the strain fs(2) B assigned the reiterated sequence, homologous to the lamin DNA clone, to the nuclear envelope associated regions of the proximal beta-heterochromatin which is known to undergo structural reorganization during cell differentiation. The nucleotide analysis of 300 bp from this sequence has established the presence of 21 bp and 300 bp d(GT/CA), 12 bp AT-box, the regions of recognition of the nuclear factor and the inverted repeats.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
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
D009685 Nuclear Envelope The membrane system of the CELL NUCLEUS that surrounds the nucleoplasm. It consists of two concentric membranes separated by the perinuclear space. The structures of the envelope where it opens to the cytoplasm are called the nuclear pores (NUCLEAR PORE). Nuclear Membrane,Envelope, Nuclear,Envelopes, Nuclear,Membrane, Nuclear,Membranes, Nuclear,Nuclear Envelopes,Nuclear Membranes
D002460 Cell Line Established cell cultures that have the potential to propagate indefinitely. Cell Lines,Line, Cell,Lines, Cell
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).

D004331 Drosophila melanogaster A species of fruit fly frequently used in genetics because of the large size of its chromosomes. D. melanogaster,Drosophila melanogasters,melanogaster, Drosophila
D006570 Heterochromatin The portion of chromosome material that remains condensed and is transcriptionally inactive during INTERPHASE. Heterochromatins
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D001483 Base Sequence The sequence of PURINES and PYRIMIDINES in nucleic acids and polynucleotides. It is also called nucleotide sequence.

D015139 Blotting, Southern A method (first developed by E.M. Southern) for detection of DNA that has been electrophoretically separated and immobilized by blotting on nitrocellulose or other type of paper or nylon membrane followed by hybridization with labeled NUCLEIC ACID PROBES. Southern Blotting,Blot, Southern,Southern Blot
