abstractText | PCR with primers specific for the murine B1 consensus sequence allows amplification of DNA from murine sources. We have used B1-PCR for amplifying yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) DNA which can be used to localize single YACs by fluorescence in situ hybridization. The genes for the pregnancy-specific glycoproteins Cea2 and Cea4, both belonging to the large carcinoembryonic antigen gene family, were localized by chromosomal in situ suppression hybridization of three YAC clones to murine chromosome 7A2-A3. This was facilitated by the use of the mouse lymphoma cell line WMP/WMP which contains nine pairs of Robertsonian fusion chromosomes. |
