A physical map of a genome is an essential guide for navigation, allowing the location of any gene or other landmark in the chromosomal DNA. We have constructed a physical map of the mouse genome ...

The accurate distribution of chromosomes in an oocyte is essential for the correct transmission of genetic information to the ...

Chromosome 19 has the highest gene density of all human chromosomes, more than double the genome-wide average. The large clustered gene families, corresponding high G + C content, CpG islands and ...

Mouse map. Researchers have generated a physical map to navigate the mouse genome. Jonathan Weitzman. Jonathan Weitzman. This person does not yet have a bio. View Full Profile. Learn about our ...

In response, Page and colleagues developed an approach known as SHIMS (single-haplotype iterative mapping and sequencing) to establish a definitive reference DNA sequence of the human Y chromosome ...

This new, improved mouse genetic map has already yielded valuable information on how factors such as chromosome, chromosomal location, sex, and sequence composition are related to recombination ...

A new study in Nature shows that when pregnant mice don’t have enough iron, their (usually male) fetuses with a Y sex ...

F or the first time, researchers have fused two mouse chromosomes together in vitro, resulting in living mice with new karyotypes. The new technique, detailed in a study published today (August 25) in ...

To date, chromosome-level engineering has only been accomplished in yeast. The ability to manipulate DNA on a large scale in higher eukaryotes like mammals has remained a challenging goal.

In 1958, geneticists created a living map of the mouse genome using oversized mock-ups of the rodent’s chromosomes. At certain locations, they attached cages containing mice with mutations ...

Complete map of mouse genetic variation Date: September 26, 2011 Source: University of California - Los Angeles Summary: The laboratory mouse has been widely used for research on a variety of ...

Researchers analyze mouse chromosome 16 and find similarities with the human chromosome 21. A framework map of the mouse genome is developed. Advertisement. Article continues below this ad.
