    Notes: Abstract In Xenopus laevis, genes encoding tRNAPhe, tRNATyr, tRNA 1 Met , tRNAAsn, tRNAAla, tRNALeu, and tRNALys are clustered within a 3.18-kb (kilobase) fragment of DNA. This fragment is tandemly repeated some 150 times in the haploid genome and its components are found outside the repeat only to a limited extent. The fragment hybridizes in situ to a single site very near the telomere on the long arm of one of the acrocentric chromosomes of the group comprising chromosomes 13–18. All the chromosomes of this group also hybridize with DNA coding for oocyte-specific 5S RNA. The tRNA gene cluster is slightly proximal to the cluster of 5S RNA genes.

    Notes: Abstract In Xenopus laevis eight tRNA genes are located in a 3.18 kb tandemly repeated unit. There are 150 copies of the unit at a single locus near the long arm telomere of one of the acrocentric chromosomes in the 14–17 group. Two additional classes of tRNA gene-containing repeats have been isolated (defined by clones p3.1 and p3.2) that have structures related to that of the 3.18 kb unit. Using in situ hybridization at the electron microscopic level, the p3.2 repeats are found clustered at a single locus in the subtelomeric region on one of the submetacentric chromosomes, whereas the p3.1 repeats are clustered at a locus indistinguishable from that containing the 3.18 kb repeats. This suggests that these tDNA tandem repeats can diverge in sequence from each other without being at distantly separated loci.

    Notes: Abstract We have applied EM in situ hybridization (EMISH) and pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) to samples from diploid primary cell cultures and an established cell line to examine in detail the relative organization of the major and minor satellite DNAs and telomere sequences in the genomes of Mus domesticus and Mus spretus. EMISH localizes the Mus domesticus minor satellite to a single site at the centromere-proximal end of each chromosome. Double label hybridizations with both minor satellite and telomere probes show that they are in close proximity and possibly are linked. In fact, PFGE of M. domesticus DNA digested with Sal I and Sfi I reveals the presence of fragments which hybridize to both probes and is consistent with the physical linkage of these two sequences. The M. domesticus minor satellite is the more abundant satellite in Mus spretus. Its distribution in M. spretus is characterized by diffuse labeling with no obvious concentration near chromosome ends. In addition to this repeat the M. spretus genome contains a small amount of DNA that hybridizes to a M. domesticus major satellite probe. Unlike the M. domesticus minor satellite, it is not telomere proximal but is confined to a domain at the border of the centromere and the long arm. Thus, although both species possess all three sequences, except for the telomeres, their distribution relative to one another is not conserved. Based on the results presented, we propose preliminary molecular maps of the centromere regions of Mus domesticus and Mus spretus.

    Notes: It is possible to combine hybridization to specimens on electron-microscope grids of nucleic-acid probes labelled nonisotopically with immunogold detection of hybrid sites to map the position of target sequences rapidly and precisely. The basic technique is described, and examples are provided to illustrate the types of questions which can be approached in the general area of higher-order chromosome organization and function. A combination of two differentially labelled probes and two different-sized gold particles permits the simultaneous detection of closely linked or interspersed sequences.
