Abstract

Three different repeat sequences have been mapped within the cloned EcoRI fragments that contain the adult beta-globin genes from the BALB/c (Hddd) mouse. One sequence, "a", occurs 1.5-2 kb 3' to the beta-major gene. A second, "b", is found 4kb 5' and 7.5kb 3' to the beta-minor gene. The 14kb EcoRI fragment bearing the beta-minor gene carries at least one additional repetitive element, "c". Probing a BALB/c DNA library with each repeat has demonstrated that these sequences are moderately to highly repetitive and are extensively interspersed with each other throughout the genome. In addition, repeats "a" and "b" are preferentially found in satellite and main-band DNa, respectively. The occurrence of these repeats elsewhere in the beta-globin cluster was demonstrated by probing the non-adult globin clones with each repeat. The arrangement of these repeats around the non-adult genes is 5'-"b"-"b"-epsilon y-beta hl-beta h2-"c"-beta h3-3'. Probing the C57BL/10 (Hbbs) adult gene clones with these repeats demonstrated that the distribution of these sequences in the adult region of these two haplotypes is essentially the same.
