The continuing efforts to evaluate specific human populations for altered germinal mutation rates would profit from more efficient and more specific approaches than those of the past. To this end, we have explored the potential usefulness of two-dimensional electrophoresis of DNA fragments obtained from restriction-enzyme-digested genomic DNA. This permits the analysis, on a single preparation, of approximately 2000 DNA fragments varying in size from 1.0 to 5.0 kb in the first dimension and from 0.3 to 2.0 kb in the second dimension. To enter into a genetic analysis, these fragments must exhibit positional and quantitative stability. With respect to the latter, if spots that are the product of two homologous DNA fragments are to be distinguished with the requisite accuracy from spots that are the product of only one fragment, the coefficient of variation of spot intensity should be approximately &lt; or = 0.12. At present, 482 of the spots in our preparations meet these standards. In an examination of preparations based on three Japanese mother/father/child trios, 43 of these 482 spots were found to exhibit variation that segregated within families according to Mendelian principles. We have established the feasibility of cloning a variant fragment from such gels and establishing its nucleotide sequence. This technology should be highly efficient in monitoring for mutations resulting in loss/gain/rearrangement events in DNA fragments distributed throughout the genome.
