dc.description.abstract | Deletion and translocation mutations have been shown to play a significant role in the genesis of many cancers. The hprt gene located at Xq26 is a frequently used marker gene in human mutational studies. In an attempt to better understand potential mutational mechanisms involved in deletions and translocations, inverse PCR (IPCR) methods to amplify and sequence the breakpoints of hprt mutants classified as translocations and large deletions were developed. IPCR involves the digestion of DNA with a restriction enzyme, circularization of the fragments produced, and PCR amplification around the circle with primers oriented in a direction opposite to that of conventional PCR. The use of this technique allows amplification into an unknown region, in this case through the hprt breakpoint into the unknown joined sequence. Through the use of this procedure, two translocation, one inversion, and two external deletion hprt breakpoint sequences were isolated and sequenced. The isolated IPCR products range in size from 0.4 to 1.8 kb, and were amplified from circles ranging in size from 0.6 to 7.7 kb. We have shown that inverse PCR is useful to sequence translocation and large deletion mutant breakpoints in the hprt gene. Environ. Mol. Mutagen. 39:22–32, 2002 © 2002 Wiley-Liss, Inc. | en_US |
