    Notes: Summary Theoretical flow karyotypes from both plant and mammalian species have been simply modelled using computer spreadsheet software. The models are based upon published values of relative DNA content or relative lengths of each of the chromosomes. From such data, the histograms of chromosome distribution have been simulated for both linear and logarithmic modules of a flow cytometer, and as a function of the coefficient of variation. Simulated and experimental histograms are compard for Nicotiana plumbaginifolia. This readily accessible exercise facilitates the planning and execution of flow cytometric analysis and sorting of chromosomes.

    Notes: Summary The amounts of nuclear DNA in ten species of seaweeds belonging to the Rhodophyceae, Phaeophyceae, and Chlorophyceae were determined by flow cytometric analysis of nuclei isolated from protoplasts. Genome size was determined from the fluorescence of the nuclei stained with ethidium bromide. The size of the nuclear genome ranged from 0.13 pg per cell in the 1 C population ofUlva rigida to 3.40 pg per cell in the 2 C population ofSphacelaria sp. GC% analysis was based on staining with either Hoechst 33342 or mithramycin A, two fluorochromes specific for the bases A-T and G-C, respectively. Two models were used for the estimation of the proportion of guanine plus cytosine in the nuclear genome. The first one was based on the linear relationships mithramycin A fluorescence/G-C content and ethidium bromide fluorescence/total DNA content. The second model, based on the curvilinear relationships Hoechst 33342 fluorescence/A-T content and mithramycin A fluorescence/G-C content, resulted in comparatively more homogenous and consistent data and appears more accurate. Comparison with previous reports from other methods for the physical investigation of nuclear genomes shows that flow cytometry of nuclei isolated from protoplasts is an accurate, convenient and robust technique to assay for genome sizes and base pair composition in marine macroalgae.

    Notes: Abstract YBR1012 (YBR136w) is an essential gene from Saccharomyces cerevisiae identified during the systematic sequencing of part of the right arm of chromosome II. We previously constructed a conditional allele of YBR1012 based on antisense RNA, by inserting a small fragment of this gene downstream from the inducible UASGAL10-CYC1 promoter. Several other antisense RNA constructions have since been made and their activity tested. The response of the system appears to be very delicate, as the presence or absence of 13 nucleotides of polylinker in the 300 nucleotide antisense transcript can dramatically modify its effectiveness. The most effective antisense RNA construction was used in flow cytometry studies to investigate the role of ybr1012p. The results show that during the antisense RNA block some 80% of the cells are arrested with their DNA unreplicated, suggesting that Ybr1012p is needed for progression through G1 or early S phase.
