The metallothioneins (MTs) are a family of proteins of low relative molecular mass which bind heavy-metal ions. MTs exist in several molecular forms (MT-I, MT-II) and are encoded by a multi-gene family containing at least 14 closely related genes and pseudogenes. These proteins function in the regulation of trace-metal metabolism, the storage of these ions in the liver, and as a protective mechanism against heavy-metal toxicity. Somatic cell hybridization has shown that most MT genes, including the functional MT genes (MT1A, MT1B, MT2A), lie on human chromosome 16. Using in situ hybridization, we have now localized the MT genes to band q22 of chromosome 16. This chromosomal band is also a breakpoint in two specific rearrangements, the inv(16)(p13q22) and t(16; 16)(p13;q22) rearrangements, found in a subgroup of patients with acute myelomonocytic leukaemia (AMML). Hybridization of a MT probe to malignant cells from two patients with an inv(16) showed labelled sites on both arms of the inverted chromosome, indicating that the breakpoint at 16q22 splits the MT gene cluster. Similar results were obtained when this probe was hybridized to metaphase cells from two patients with a t(16; 16). These results suggest that the MT genes or their regulatory regions may function as an 'activating' sequence for an as yet unidentified cellular gene located at 16p13. 相似文献

A number of proto-oncogenes have recently been localized to the chromosomal segments that are the breakpoints in the specific rearrangements noted in human malignant diseases. Moreover, rearranged forms of several proto-oncogenes have been identified in malignant cells; in several instances, the proto-oncogene has undergone an alteration as a result of a nonrandom chromosomal rearrangement. One proto-oncogene that has yet to be associated with human neoplastic disease is c-src, the cellular homologue of the transforming sequence of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV). By somatic cell hybridization, c-src has been mapped to chromosome 20, but its precise location was not determined. We have now mapped this gene by using in situ hybridization of the cloned human c-src probe to human mitotic chromosomes. We report here that the human genome contains two loci with strong homology to the coding regions of this oncogene, at 1p34-p36 and 20q12-q13. It is noteworthy that these chromosomal regions are frequently involved in the structural rearrangements observed in haematological malignant diseases. 相似文献

The elevation history of the Tibetan plateau provides direct insight into the tectonic processes associated with continent-continent collisions. Here we present oxygen-isotope-based estimates of the palaeo-altimetry of late Eocene and younger deposits of the Lunpola basin in the centre of the plateau, which indicate that the surface of Tibet has been at an elevation of more than 4 kilometres for at least the past 35 million years. We conclude that crustal, but not mantle, thickening models, combined with plate-kinematic solutions of India-Asia convergence, are compatible with palaeo-elevation estimates across the Tibetan plateau. 相似文献
