The genomes ofMus musculusand other rodent species share a long conserved family of sequences that are dispersed and abundant (approx. 20,000 copies), and that have several novel features of organization and evolution.EcoR1 restriction ofM. musculusDNA reveals a prominent 1350 bp†set of sequences. Two nonhomologous sequences of 850 and 500 bp, representing almost the total population of the 1350 bp repeats, were used to examine the detailed organization of the dispersed family and its surrounding sequences using a combination of restriction analysis and “Southern” hybridization. The 1350 bp sequence is contained within a longer repeating unit of approximately 3 kb that is dispersed amongst a wide variety of non-homologous and seemingly non-repetitive sequences. At some sites within the 3 kb repeat, considerable sequence heterogeneity has been found between members of the family, such that the family can be divided into largely non-overlapping subsets (or “segments”) according to the positioning ofHinIII sites. Underlying the segmental organization there is a low background overlap of each segment with every other. Some but not all members of the family and its variants have been located on the X-chromosome in a Chinese hamster,M. musculus, X chromosome cell line: suggesting a wide genomic dispersion of the family. Homologous repeated sequences to theM. musculus1350 bp repeat have been identified in species ofMusandApodemus, with strikingly similar features of organization and dispersion. InM. spretusa 1350 bp sequence is contained within a dispersed repeat of at least 2·9 kb. However, the majority ofM. spretusrepeats contain an additional restriction site not present in the equivalentM. musculusarray, suggesting a mechanism of widespread substitution or “conversion” of one variant by another in each genome.Apodemus sylvaticuspossesses two dispersed and homologous families of 1350 bp and 1850 bp repetition, respectively, which contain sequences that have diverged fromM. musculusto differing extents.A. mystacinuspossesses only one family of dispersed and homologous repeats of 1850 bp. The majority of members within eachApodemushomologous family also contain characteristic variant restriction-site arrangements. The mechanisms underlying the spread of such variants within each array; the generation of segmental patterns; and the evolutionary conservation of this mouse interspersed family (MIF-1) are discussed in relation to the present knowledge of the organization and activity of other dispersed sequence families.
