摘要
The physical and genetic characterization of a stable human minichromosome in a Chinese hamster hybrid cell is described. The minichromosome is 2-3 Mb in size, is linear, and contains a complementing SDHC gene. It is derived from a human chromosome 1, including the centromere, some pericentric heterochromatin from 1q12, and 1-2 Mb of 1q21. Genomic DNA surrounding the SDHC gene was used to construct a targeting vector with a selectable drug resistance marker (neo(R)); the marker was then successfully integrated into the minichromosome. With the new selectable marker, the 8.2.3 minichromosome could be transferred into mouse LMTK- and 3T3 TK- cells.
