中文摘要Short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) are widespread among eukaryotic genomes. They are repetitive DNA sequences that have been amplified by retrotransposition. In this study, a class of SINEs were isolated from the Opsariichthys bidens genome, and named Opsar. Sequence analysis confirmed that Opsar is a new class of typical SINEs derived from tRNA molecules. With the tRNA-derived region of Opsar and through BLASTN search, we further identified Zb-SINEs from the zebrafish genome, which includes two groups: Zb-SINE-A and Zb-SINE-B. The Zb-SINE-A group comprises subfamilies of -Al--A5, and the Zb-SINE-B group is a dimer of the tRNA(Ala)-derived region and shares a similar dimeric composition to Alu. Zb-SINEs are composed of three distinct regions: a 5 end tRNA-derived region, a tRNA-unrelated region and a 3 end AT-rich region. The flanking regions are AT rich. The average length of Zb-SINEs elements is about 340 6p. Zb-SINEs account for as much as 0.1% of the whole zebrafish genome. About 70% of the Zb-SINEs are on chromosomes 11, 18, and 19. These Zb-SINEs were characterized by PCR and dot hybridization. The distribution pattern of Zb-SINEs in genome strongly supports the master genes model. The tRNA-derived regions of Opsar and Zb-SINEs were compared with the tRNA(Ala) gene, and they showed 76% similarity, indicating that Opsar and Zb-SINEs originated from an inactive tRNA(Ala) sequence or a tRNA(Ala)-like sequence. In view of the evolutionary status of zebrafish in the Cyprinidae, we deduced that Zb-SINEs were a very old class of interspersed sequences.
