The telomeres of gorilla, chimpanzee and human peripheral blood cells have been examined by hybridization to an oligonucleotide probe, (TTAGGG)4, following conventional and pulsed-field electrophoresis procedures. The MspI site present near the chromosome terminus undergoes methylation in gorilla, chimpanzee and human genome as shown by the HpaII digestion. Minor (TTAGGG)4-hybridizing sequences have been also detected in the chimpanzee HindIII and MspI digests.
采用常规电泳和脉冲场电泳方法,通过与寡核苷酸探针(TTAGGG)4杂交,对大猩猩、黑猩猩和人类外周血细胞的端粒进行了检测。如经HpaII酶切所示,在大猩猩、黑猩猩和人类基因组中,靠近染色体末端的MspI位点会发生甲基化。在黑猩猩的HindIII和MspI酶切产物中也检测到了少量(TTAGGG)4杂交序列。
