The Trypanosoma cruzi genome project: nuclear karyotype and gene mapping of clone CL Brener.
By using improved pulsed field gel electrophoresis conditions, the molecular karyotype of the reference clone CL Brener selected for Trypanosoma cruzi genome project was established. A total of 20 uniform chromosomal bands ranging in size from 0.45 to 3.5 Megabase pairs (Mbp) were resolved in a single run. The weighted sum of the chromosomal bands was approximately 87 Mbp. Chromoblots were hybr...
متن کاملBiological parameters and molecular markers of clone CL Brener--the reference organism of the Trypanosoma cruzi genome project.
Clone CL Brener is the reference organism used in the Trypanosoma cruzi Genome Project. Some biological parameters of CL Brener were determined: (a) the doubling time of epimastigote forms cultured in liver infusion-tryptose (LIT) medium at 28 degrees C is 58 +/- 13 hr; (b) differentiation of epimastigotes to metacyclic trypomastigotes is obtained by incubation in LIT-20% Grace's medium; (c) tr...
متن کاملShotgun Sequencing Analysis of Trypanosoma cruzi I Sylvio X10/1 and Comparison with T. cruzi VI CL Brener
Trypanosoma cruzi is the causative agent of Chagas disease, which affects more than 9 million people in Latin America. We have generated a draft genome sequence of the TcI strain Sylvio X10/1 and compared it to the TcVI reference strain CL Brener to identify lineage-specific features. We found virtually no differences in the core gene content of CL Brener and Sylvio X10/1 by presence/absence an...
متن کاملA phylogenetic analysis of the Trypanosoma cruzi genome project CL Brener reference strain by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis and multiprimer random amplified polymorphic DNA fingerprinting.
We have assessed the phylogenetic status of the Trypanosoma cruzi Genome Project CL Brener reference strain by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis (MLEE) and multiprimer random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) including a set of cloned stocks representative of the whole genetic diversity of T. cruzi. MLEE and RAPD data gave congruent phylogenetic results. The CL Brener reference strain fell into ...
متن کاملTowards the physical map of the Trypanosoma cruzi nuclear genome: construction of YAC and BAC libraries of the reference clone T. cruzi CL-Brener.
Strategies to construct the physical map of the Trypanosoma cruzi nuclear genome have to capitalize on three main advantages of the parasite genome, namely (a) its small size, (b) the fact that all chromosomes can be defined, and many of them can be isolated by pulse field gel electrophoresis, and (c) the fact that simple Southern blots of electrophoretic karyotypes can be used to map sequence ...
