We report a technique for the rapid determination of genomic structure of individual members of human interspersed multigene families which circumvents the requirement for genomic clone isolation. In this approach, vectorette libraries were constructed from human/rodent somatic cell hybrid DNA harbouring single members of the gene family. Using these libraries as PCR templates with nested gene-specific primers in combination with a common vectorette primer resulted in the amplification of gene-specific products suitable for the subsequent determination of intron/exon structure. We have applied this technique to characterise members of two gene families.
我们报告了一种快速确定人类散布多基因家族单个成员基因组结构的技术,该技术无需进行基因组克隆分离。在这种方法中,从小鼠体细胞杂交DNA构建载体文库,这些DNA含有该基因家族的单个成员。使用这些文库作为PCR模板,结合巢式基因特异性引物和通用载体引物,可扩增出适合后续确定内含子/外显子结构的基因特异性产物。我们已应用该技术对两个基因家族的成员进行了表征。
