CHORI-15: Human (F) (Homo sapiens) BAC Library |
|
The CHORI-15 Human female BAC Library was constructed by Chung Li Shu and Dr. Kazutoyo Osoegawa. The preparation of the library followed the cloning approach developed in our laboratory Osoegawa et al., 1998. This library was generated according to the new NHGRI/DOE "Guidance on Human Subjects in Large-Scale DNA Sequencing". Female blood was obtained via a double-bind selection protocol. High molecular weight DNA was isolated from one randomly chosen donor (out of 10 male donors) and partially digested with MboI. Size selected DNA was cloned into the pTARBAC1.3 vector between the BamHI sites. The ligation products were transformed into DH10B electrocompetent cells (BRL Life Technologies). The library has been arrayed into 384 (384-well) microtiter dishes. The 22x22cm nylon high-density filters have been made available for probe hybridization screening.
BAC library construction was funded by a grant from the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI, NIH) (#HG01165-06).
Provisional data for CHORI-15 Human (female) BAC Library:
Segment | 1 | All | Vector | pTARBAC1.3 | pTARBAC1.3 | Restriction Enzyme | MboI | MboI | DNA Source | blood | blood | Plate Numbers | 1-384 | 1-384 | Plate Count | 384 | 384 | Empty Wells | 1917 (1.3%) | 1917 (1.3%) | Non-Recombinant Clones | 70 (0.05%) | 70 (0.05%) | Non-Insert Clones | Approx. 3097 (2.1%) | Approx. 3097 (2.1%) | Recombinant Clones | 142372 | 142372 | Average Insert Size | 156 Kbp | 156 Kbp | Genomic Coverage | 6.7X | 6.7X |

No clones were found to be non-recombinant after analysis of CHORI-15 using overgo probes specific for the puc19 fragment.
Data on the CHORI-15 clone insert size distribution has been determined by pulsed-field gel Electrophoresis. Clone Size Distribution has been plotted graphically.
Further in depth characterization of the library is on going in our lab and data will be updated on our web page periodically.
