The reciprocal t(11;22)(q23;q11) is the most common non-Robertsonian constitutional translocation in humans. The tumor-associated 11;22 rearrangement of Ewing sarcoma (ES) and peripheral neuroepithelioma (NE) is cytologically very similar to the 11;22 constitutional rearrangement. Using immunoglobulin light-chain constant region, ETS1 probes, and the technique of in situ hybridization, we previously were able to show that the constitutional and ES/NE breakpoints are different. As a first step toward isolating these translocation junctions and to further distinguish between them, we have made somatic cell hybrids. Cells from a constitutional 46,XX,inv(9),t(11;22) carrier and from an ES cell line with a t(11;22) were separately fused to a hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase-deficient Chinese hamster cell line (RJK88). Resulting clones were screened with G-banding and Southern hybridization. Hybrid clones derived from the constitutional t(11;22) were established which contained the der(22) and both the der(22) and the der(11). Hybrid clones derived from the ES cell line containing the der(11) were isolated. Using the technique of Southern hybridization we have sublocalized the loci; ApoA1/C3, CD3D, ETS1, PBGD, THY1, D11S29, D11S34, and D11S147 to the region between the two breakpoints on chromosome 11 and V lambda I, V lambda VI, V lambda VII, and D22S10 to the region between the breakpoints on chromosome 22. Using anonymous DNA probes, we found that D22S9 and D22S24 map proximal to the constitutional breakpoint and that D22S15 and D22S32 map distal to the ES breakpoint on chromosome 22.

The regional gene assignments for human porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD; EC 4.3.1.8) and esterase A4 (ESA4; EC3.1.1.1) chromosome 11 have been determined with somatic cell hybridization and immunologic, electrophoretic, and cytogenetic techniques. Dimethyl sulfoxide-induced erythroid differentiation of hybrid clones derived from the fusion of tetraploid Friend murine erythroleukemia (2S MEL) cells deficient in thymidine kinase and human Lesch--Nyhan fibroblasts (HLN) deficient in hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT-; EC 2.4.2.8) were examined for expression of human PBGD, ESA4, and lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA; EC 1.1.1.27). Human PBGD was detected by rocket immunoelectrophoresis with rabbit anti-human PBGD IgG and by isoelectric focusing. The human chromosome complement of each clone was determined by cytogenetic and enzyme marker analyses. Of the five primary 2S MEL--HLN clones examined, three were positive for human PBGD. These were subcloned to yield a total of 10 secondary, tertiary, or quaternary clones. Analyses of these subclones permitted the regional assignment of human PBGD and ESA4 to the long arm of chromosome 11. Finer regional assignment of the loci for human PBGD and ESA4 was facilitated when two 2S MEL (HPRT-)--human fibroblast (HX/11) hybrids, each containing the X chromosome--autosome translocation (der11), t(X;11)(q25-26;q23) as the only human chromosome, were examined for expression of human PBGD, ESA4, and LDHA. One clone, HX/11-2, contained the intact X/11 translocated chromosome; in the other, HX/11-3, 11p was deleted, and the human X/11 derivative was translocated onto a mouse chromosome. HX/11-2 expressed human LDHA, but HX/11-3 did not, verifying that the latter human 11/X derivative did not include 11pter leads to 11p12; PBGD and ESA4 were not detected in either hybrid. These results confirm the location of the gene for human PBGD on chromosome 11 and establish the assignment of the loci for PBGD and ESA4 in the region 11q23 leads to 11qter.
