Chicken Brain

Intracellular rapidly exchanging Ca2+ stores are identified and defined in terms of intralumenal low-affinity, high-capacity Ca(2+)-binding proteins, of which calsequestrin (CS) is the prototype in striated muscles. In chicken striated muscles, there is a single gene for CS [Choi and Clegg (1990) Dev. Biol. 142, 169-177]. In the chicken brain, the gene for CS was found to be selectively expressed in Purkinje neurons, as judged by Northern blotting, in situ hybridization and immunocytochemistry. The synthetic machinery for CS was found to be restricted to the cell body, i.e. excluded from dendrites and axon.

Chicken Cystatin

The cystatins are a superfamily of proteins that inhibit the lysosomal cysteine proteinases, cathepsins B, H, and L. Members of this superfamily have been found in all tissues and biological fluids analyzed. Previous studies have shown that chicken cystatin mRNA is abundant in brain tissue. In this study, a definitive localization of chicken cystatin mRNA in chicken brain was determined by in situ hybridization. Chicken cystatin mRNA was heavily concentrated in the secretory epithelial cells of the choroid plexus. The rest of the brain failed to show a hybridization signal above that of the control sense strand probe, even after long exposures. We conclude that chicken cystatin is synthesized predominantly by the specialized secretory epithelial cells of the choroid plexus and secreted into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). We postulate that chicken cystatin functions to regulate proteinase activity in the CSF and therefore may function as a protective factor for the cellular elements of the central nervous system.

Fluorescent Spot

Using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), the positions of DNA sequences can be discretely marked with a fluorescent spot. The efficiency of marking DNA sequences of the size cloned in cosmids is 90-95%, and the fluorescent spots produced after FISH are ≈0.3 μm in diameter. Sites of two sequences can be distinguished using two-color FISH. Different reporter molecules, such as biotin or digoxigenin, are incorporated into DNA sequence probes by nick translation. These reporter molecules are labeled after hybridization with different fluorochromes, e.g., FITC and Texas Red. The development of dual band pass filters (Chromatechnology) allows these fluorochromes to be photographed simultaneously without registration shift.

Gold Particles

We have been investigating the spatial distribution of nucleic acids intracellularly using in situ hybridization. The use of non-isotopic nucleotide analogs incorporated into the DNA probe allows the detection of the probe at its site of hybridization within the cell. This approach therefore is compatible with the high resolution available by electron microscopy. Biotinated or digoxigenated probe can be detected by antibodies conjugated to colloidal gold. Because mRNA serves as a template for the probe fragments, the colloidal gold particles are detected as arrays which allow it to be unequivocally distinguished from background.
