Types of karyotyping
6/18/2017 6
Classic karyotype Cytogenetics
• Chromosome number and arrangement studies
• Smaller chromosomal aberrations are detected e.g. translocations
• Complex chromosomal rearrangements often remain hidden
Riegel, M. (2014). Human molecular cytogenetics: From cells to nucleotides. Genet. Mol. Biol. 37, 194-209.
6/18/2017 7
Digital karyotyping
• Based on quantitative analysis of DNA (DNA copy number)
• Detection by using short sequence tags (SST) (21 base pairs usually)

Chromosome Banding
Introduction
Classification of Banding Techniques
Based on
GC and AT rich regions.
Constitutive Heterochromatin Region.
Always metaphase chromosomes whose size has condensed and whose
diameter is increased are used for chromosome banding studies after fixing
stage.
Wendy, A. B.,2001. Karyotype analysis and chromosome banding. Nature, 1-6.
The banding techniques fall into two principal groups:
• Bands, distributed along the length of the whole chromosome, such as G-,
Q-band
• Those that stain a number of specific bands.These include methods
which reveal centromeric bands, C-bands, and nucleolus organizer
regions, NOR's (at terminal regions of chromosomes).

1.Q Banding
• Quinacrine mustard, an alkylating
agent, was the first chemical to band
chromosomes viewed under a
fluorescence microscope.
• Dark and light florescence
Ried, T., et.al ,1998. Chromosome painting : a useful art. Human Molecular Genetics, Vol(7),1619- 1626.
1.Q Banding Techniques
Advantages
• Simple and Versatile.
• Used where G band is not
accepted.
• Used in study of chromosome
heteromorphism.
Disadvantages
• Tendency to fade during
examination.
 Photo-degradation .
UV light breaks the chemical
bond.
• It stain regions rich in adenine and
thymine.
• Standard G band staining techniques
allow between 400 and 600 bands to be
seen on metaphase chromosomes.
2.G Banding
• Methylene
Blue
• Eosin
• Azure B
Giemsa solution

G Banding Techniques
Advantages
• Used in identification of bands
rich in Sulphur content.
• Used in the identification of
chromosomal abnormalities
• Gene Mapping.
Disadvantages
• Not used in plants.
• Required Pre-treatment by Salt
or proteolytic enzyme
G banding not used in Plants. Why????
• Human mitotic metaphase chromosome is 2.3 times shorter.
• Plant mitotic metaphase chromosome is 10 times more shorter than
human chromosome.
• Hence difficult to demonstrate the arrangement of bands at this level
of saturation with G banding technique.
Source: Greilhuber, J (1977). Why Plant chromosome do not
show G bands? .Theory of Applied Genetics, Vol 50(3): 121- 124.
• NOR-banding involves silver staining (silver nitrate solution) of the
"nucleolar organizing region", which contains rRNA genes.
• NOR region is highly condensed.
• It can neither be expressed to nor encode any protein
3. N(NOR) Banding
N Banding Techniques
Advantages
• Used in the identification of
nucleolar organizer region.
• Superior banding pattern for
plants.
Disadvantages
Time consuming both in
technique and reagent
preparation.
C (centromeric)-banding stains areas of heterochromatin, which
is tightly packed and repetitive DNA.
4. C Banding
C Banding Techniques
Advantages
• Identification of chromosomes
particularly in insects and plants.
• Identification of centromere position.
• Gene mapping.
Disadvantages
• C-banding methods do not permit
identification of every chromosome
in the somatic cell complement

Editor's Notes

  • #23: Versatile: Adoptable. To be adopted Heteromarphism : the quality or condition of existing in various forms
  • #24: It is specific for the phosphate groups of DNA and attaches itself to regions of DNA where there are high amounts of adenine-thymine bonding. When chromosomes are pre-treated with the proteolytic enzyme trypsin the process is called GTG banding
  • #28: Silver nitrat form insoluble with phosphat Ions.. it forms black elementary silver
