| abstractText | Recently, oligonucleotide probes that detect intracisternal A-particle (IAP) gene subfamilies with a limited number of proviral copies have been shown to be useful multilocus markers. A procedure for hybridization of these probes has been developed and is described. In summary, the main features of the method are the following: (i) A pulse controller is used during agarose gel electrophoresis to improve resolution of restriction fragments in genomic DNA. (ii) Hybridization is performed in a dried gel. (iii) The hybridized gel is washed in tetramethylammonium chloride to eliminate differences in oligonucleotide composition on hybrid stability. Use of the procedure is demonstrated by genomic mapping of IAP loci in the AXB BXA recombinant inbred mouse strains, identification of hypomethylated loci in tumor cells, and detection of a transposed IAP provirus previously identified as the basis for a mutation at the agouti locus. |
