The CUGI <strong>Rice</strong> Genome Framework ProjectAs a prelude to sequencing the rice genome, CUGI has developed an integrated frameworkconsisting of (1) two deep-coverage large insert BAC libraries, (2) a BAC fingerprintdatabase, (3) a genome-anchoring database, and (4) a sequence-tagged connectordatabase (STC-DB) (Venter et al 1996). Together, these four components areused to select a minimum tiling path of BAC clones across the genome to efficientlysequence rice. Figure 1 illustrates how the framework is used. First, a “seed” BAC isselected that is physically and genetically anchored to the rice genome and shotgunsequenced.The sequence of the seed BAC is then compared with the STC-DB and asingle BAC clone is selected that overlaps minimally with the seed BAC on each end.The fingerprint and genome-anchoring DBs are consulted with each step to ensurethat the BAC clones selected are not rearranged and are physically anchored to thecontig being sequenced. By selecting several seed BACs across a chromosome, onecan, in principle, use this framework to efficiently sequence the rice genome.Below is a brief description of the four components of the framework project anda preliminary analysis of the data.Two deep-coverage BAC librariesTwo BAC libraries were constructed from rice (Oryza sativa subsp. japonica) cultivarNipponbare with each library representing a different restriction enzyme (Budiman<strong>Rice</strong> genome (430 Mb/1C)Construct HindIII and EcoRI BAC libraries (20X deep, 130 kb, av insert)Fingerprint: fingerprint Anchoring: screen the library BAC end sequence:73,728 BAC clones with genetic markers and sort 147,456 ends scatteredBACs by chromosomesevery 3 kb across thegenome; total 10%Select a seed BAC (130 kb)of the genome sequenceConstruct fingerprintdatabaseShotgun library constructionShotgun sequencing and contig assemblyConstruct STCdatabaseSearch STC database with BAC sequence and fingerprint comparisonSelect with minimal overlap BACs, sequencing (STC walking)Reconstruction of the complete rice genomeFig. 1.
