  • The Chinese Hamster Ovarian cells CHO-K1 are one of the most extensively used cells for the evaluation of gene expression and toxicology. However, these cells are frequently used for biomedical research without consideration of their cytogenetic characteristics. Therefore, we carried out to investigate the karyologic profiles, the frequency and type of chromosome aberration, and the distribution of telomeric DNA on chromosomes of the CHO-K1 cells. The GTG banding and fluorescence in situ hybridization on CHO-K1 cells were performed to characterize the karyotype and the distribution of telomeric DNA The present study revealed that the chromosome modal number of CHO-K1 cells was 2n=20; eight chromosomes appeared to be identical with those of the normal Chinese hamster, whereas the remaining 12 chromosomes were shown to be translocated, deleted, inversed, or rearranged from Chinese hamster chromosomes. The telomeric DNA on CHO-K1 chromosomes was intensively distributed at the centromeres rather than the ends of chromosomes. In addition, three chromosomes had interstitial telomeres and one marker chromosome entirely consisted of telomeric DNAs. The frequency and type of chromosome aberrations in CHO-K1 cells were examined. Of the 822 metaphase spreads, 68 (8.3%) cells resulted in chromosome aberrations of which the chromosome breakage was the most frequently occurred.

  • 본 연구는 한국재래돼지 염색체의 핵형 제시를 위하여 G-banding, C-banding 및 AgNORs를 분석하였다. 시험에 공시된 공시축은 축산기술연구소에서 선발 육종중인 재래돼지 종모돈 50두를 대상으로 각 개체별 혈액채취로서 혈액배양을 이용한 핵형 분석을 수행하였다. 한국재래돼지의 핵형은 38, XX 또는 XY로서 5쌍의 submetacentric chromosomes(Group I), 짧은 단완을 가진 2쌍의 acrocentric chromosomes(Group II), 5쌍의 metacentric chromosomes(Group III) 및 동원체가 말단부에 있는 6쌍의 acrocentric chromosomes(Group IV)로 구성된 36개의 상 염색체와 metacentric인 XX 또는 XY 성 염색체로 구성되어 있다. 재래돼지의 G-banding은 각 상동 염색체별 고유한 특징적 밴드 양상을 나타내고 있으며, 전체 염색체의 형태적 특징이나 대표적 landmarks는 국제표준핵형과 큰 차이가 없는 양상이다. 그러나 재래돼지의 경우 국제표준핵형에 비하여 보다 많은 band가 출현하였고 특히 1번, 3번, 5번, 6번, 7번, 8번, 13번, 14번, 15번, 16번, 17번, 18번 및 X 염색체에서 sub-bands의 분리를 나타내었다. 재래돼지의 C-banding은 비록 각 염색체들 간 heterochromatin의 양적 다형성이 존재하지만 거의 모든 상염색체의 동원체 부위에 C-bands가 나타나고, Y 염색체는 염색체의 전장에 걸친 heterochromatin의 분포를 보였다. AgNOR 염색에 의한 재래돼지의 NORs는 8번 및 10번 염색체의 동원체 부위에 확인되었고, 세포 당 NORs의 수는 2개에서 4개까지 관찰되었으며, 평균 2.13개로 분석되었다. 10번 염색체의 경우 모든 상동염색체에서 NORs가 나타나나 8번 염색체에서는 수적 다형성뿐만 아니라 양적 다형성을 나타내었다. 품종 간 NORs의 비교 분석에서 재래돼지의 NORs 수가 Yorkshire에 비해 유의적으로 높게 나타나 돼지의 NORs 분포 양상은 특히 8번 염색체에 있어 품종 간, 개체 간 및 세포 간에 다형적 변이 양상이 존재하는 것으로 사료된다.

  • 텔로미어란 진핵세포에 존재하는 DNA-protein 복합체로서 염색체의 말단부에 tandem repeated DNA 서열(TTAGGG)n과 특정 단백질로 구성되어 있으며 세포 분열이 진행함에 따라 이의 길이가 짧아지게 되고 일정 길이 이하가 되면 세포의 사망이 유기된다. 텔로미어의 역할은 게놈의 보호자로서 염색체의 안정성에 본질적으로 작용할고 감수분열시 상동염색체간의 접합에 주된 작용을 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구는 소와 돼지의 성축에 대한 텔로미디어의 핵형과 각 염색체상 텔로미어의 양적 분포 양상을 제시하고자 Holstein과 Landrace를 공시하고 이들로부터 섬유아세포 배양으로 중기상을 획득한 다음 human telomeric DNA probe를 이용하여 형광접합보인법(FISH)으로 분석하였다. 실험 결과 소와 돼지의 모든 염색체의 양 말단부에 뚜렷한 텔로미어 프로브의 접합 양상을 발견할 수 있었다. 소의 경우 염색체들 간 텔로미디어의 양적 변이가 나타났으며 돼지의 경우는 모든 분석된 세포에서 특이적으로 6q1의 위치에 interstitial telomere가 존재하였다. 양적형광접합보인법(Q-FISH) 분석 결과 일부 염색체에서 한쪽 말단의 텔로미어 함량이 유의적으로 높은 것으로 분석되었고, 전체적으로 거의 모든 염색체에서 소, 돼지 공히 q-arm 말단주의 함유율이 p-arm 말단부에 비해 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 염색체상 텔로미어의 상대적 함유율은 소가 돼지에 비해 높게 나타났으며, 전체 염색체 중 텔로미어의 상대적 함유율은 소, 돼지 모두 Y 염색체에서 가장 높았다.

  • The number of chromosomes of the wild mulberry silkworm, Bombyx mandarina, collected in Suwon area in the middle part of Korean peninsula was investigated. The chromosomes were examined after smearing and squashing the testis of the last instar larvae which were at spining stage and the microscopic observation showed that the number of chromosomes of the wild mulberry silkworm was 27.

  • On the basis of karyotypic analysis performed by conventional staining and Giemas C-banding technique, cytological relationship was inferred for 21 lines of Paeonia lactiflora Pal. cultivated in Korea. It was very difficult to infer their organized karyotypic classification system using the composition of somatic chromosomes involving sat-chromosomes, relative length of chromosomes, arm ratio and karyotypic formulae by conventional staining. From the distribution and number of Giemsa C-bands on the chromosomes b and c, 21 lines can be subclassified into 5 groups. It seems that the karyotypic polymorphism is observed in 21 lines of cultivated P. lactiflora because peony mainly propagates by outbreeding.

  • Cytological characters of ten taxa of the genus Lycoris were investigated to illustrate their chromosomal evolution. The fusion theory was more appropriate than the fission theory. From the viewpoint of the fusion theory L. sanguinea group, diploids with R-shaped chromosomes was the most primitive and they might have diverged into two directions, the diploids with V+R shaped chromosomes and the triped with V+R shaped chromosomes via triploids with only R-shaped chromosomes.

  • Further study on the frequency and geographical distribution of rye with accessory chromosomes in Korea was carried out in 1996. All of the 15 populations of rye investigated were found to have accessory chromosomes and the frequencies of accessories were ranged from 15 to 54%. The study from 1963 to 1966 shows that the frequency of accessory ranging from 30 to 40% is predominant.

  • Giemsa C-banded mitotic chromosome prepatations from White Leghorn, New Hampshire and Rhode Island Red inbred lines were compared for frequency of C-band regions on individual chromosomes. Except for autosomes 3, 6, 8 and 9 and W sex chromosomes, C-banding was extremely variable in other macrochromosomes. No divergence for C-band difference between homologous chromosomes of these lines was detected. Approximately 75% of the mitotic metaphase microchromosomes have recognizable C-band regions with the current technique.

  • The chromosome numbers and karyotype of Euphaedusa fusaniana, a kind of Korean land snail are investigated here. From E. fusaniana, chromosome numbers of 28 (n) and 56 (2n) were counted. Euphaedusa fusaniana has 15 pairs of metacentric chromosomes and 13 pairs of submetacentric chromosomes. The mean total length of all chromosomes was $128.7\;{\pm}\;9.93\;{\mu}m$. The maximum length of chromosomes No. 1 was $9.6\;{\pm}\;0.21\;{\mu}m$.
