Unique Mutations in Mitochondrial DNA of Senescence-Accelerated Mouse (SAM) Strains

Unique Mutations in Mitochondrial DNA of Senescence-Accelerated Mouse (SAM) Strains Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is exclusively inherited maternally and hence could offer a good method for tracing the lineage of mouse strains. We examined the mtDNA sequence of senescence-accelerated mouse (SAM) strains as well as other laboratory strains of inbred mice to deduce the ancestral strain of SAM. Four unique mutations were identified at bases 2256, 10,847, 11,181, and 13,053 in SAM strains. The mutations were not found in other mouse strains including AKR/J, one of the parental strains of SAM. Comparison of the mtDNA sequences also led to the consensus mtDNA sequence of laboratory strains of inbred mice. The seven laboratory strains of common inbred mice showed polymorphisms at base 9348, thymine repeat from base 9818, and adenine repeat from base 9821, and could be classified into five types by combination of the differences. Although we could not identify mouse strains with the same type of mtDNA as SAM in this study, the polymorphisms would provide a promising clue to ascertain the ancestral strain(s) of SAM. The polymorphism in mtDNA could be used to ascertain the genealogy of other mouse strains as well. « Previous | Next Article » Table of Contents This Article J Hered (2001) 92 (4): 352-355. doi: 10.1093/jhered/92.4.352 » Abstract Free Full Text (HTML) Free Full Text (PDF) Free Classifications Brief Communication Services Article metrics Alert me when cited Alert me if corrected Find similar articles Similar articles in Web of Science Similar articles in PubMed Add to my archive Download citation Request Permissions Citing Articles Load citing article information Citing articles via CrossRef Citing articles via Scopus Citing articles via Web of Science Citing articles via Google Scholar Google Scholar Articles by Mizutani, J.

Abstract

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is exclusively inherited maternally and hence could offer a good method for tracing the lineage of mouse strains. We examined the mtDNA sequence of senescence-accelerated mouse (SAM) strains as well as other laboratory strains of inbred mice to deduce the ancestral strain of SAM. Four unique mutations were identified at bases 2256, 10,847, 11,181, and 13,053 in SAM strains. The mutations were not found in other mouse strains including AKR/J, one of the parental strains of SAM. Comparison of the mtDNA sequences also led to the consensus mtDNA sequence of laboratory strains of inbred mice. The seven laboratory strains of common inbred mice showed polymorphisms at base 9348, thymine repeat from base 9818, and adenine repeat from base 9821, and could be classified into five types by combination of the differences. Although we could not identify mouse strains with the same type of mtDNA as SAM in this study, the polymorphisms would provide a promising clue to ascertain the ancestral strain(s) of SAM. The polymorphism in mtDNA could be used to ascertain the genealogy of other mouse strains as well. « Previous | Next Article » Table of Contents This Article J Hered (2001) 92 (4): 352-355. doi: 10.1093/jhered/92.4.352 » Abstract Free Full Text (HTML) Free Full Text (PDF) Free Classifications Brief Communication Services Article metrics Alert me when cited Alert me if corrected Find similar articles Similar articles in Web of Science Similar articles in PubMed Add to my archive Download citation Request Permissions Citing Articles Load citing article information Citing articles via CrossRef Citing articles via Scopus Citing articles via Web of Science Citing articles via Google Scholar Google Scholar Articles by Mizutani, J.
