The human genome carries multiple copies of sequences related to endogenous retroviral genomes. We investigated the distribution of one of these sequences, HERV-A, in 24 human chromosomes by Southern analyses using DNAs from flow-sorted chromosomes or rodent cells carrying a single human chromosome. The results showed that HERV-A is distributed among all human chromosomes and that each chromosome has a specific Southern blot profile. The chromosome-specific pattern did not show significant polymorphism, except in a few cases, when the same chromosome obtained from different individuals was compared. These chromosome-specific Southern hybridization profiles may be useful for chromosome karyotyping. This would allow the integrity of human chromosomes in human-rodent somatic cell hybrids to be monitored without using conventional cytogenetic methods.
