PG - 73-9 AB - Selection of chromosomal sublibraries from total human genomic libraries is critical for chromosome-based physical mapping approaches. We have previously reported a method of screening total human genomic library using flow sorted chromosomal DNA as a hybridization probe and selection of a human chromosome 22-enriched sublibrary from a total human bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library (Nucleic Acids Res 1995; 23: 1838-39). We describe here further details of the method of construction as well as characterization of the chromosome 22-enriched sublibrary thus constructed. Nearly 40% of the BAC clones that have been mapped by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis were localized to chromosome 22. By screening the sublibrary using chromosome 22-specific hybridization probes, we estimated that the sublibrary represents at least 2.5 x coverage of chromosome 22. This is in good agreement with the results from FISH mapping experiments. FISH map data also indicate that chromosome 22-specific BACs in the sublibrary represent all the subregions of chromosome 22.
