Suppression hybridization (Section 12.1.2) may be required if the probe contains repetitive sequences (e.g., lambda, cosmid or YAC probes) which would hybridize much faster and give a stronger signal than the specific sequence. It is also recommended to use low salt concentrations (e.g., 1 x SSC). Double labeling can then avoid statistical analysis of many metaphase chromosomes (Lawrence et al., 1990). 

Suppression hybridization is used when repeated DNA is present in both target and probe sequences. Since these repeat sequences are present in a relatively much higher concentration and since they have a lower complexity, they would give a much stronger signal than less abundant sequences. These nonspecific hybridization signals can be suppressed by hybridizing first with unlabeled repetitive DNA probes. Such probes are now commercially available for different species (e.g., from BRL).

Most of the aforementioned efforts are based on the nonsense suppression methodology as the method for peptide altering [100]. In this approach, a nonsense codon is introduced into the enzyme-coding mRNA in the site that has to be altered. Simultaneously, the tRNA-noncoded amino acid hybrids are prepared with nonsense anticodons. Finally, the translation of modified mRNA is performed in vivo [101] or in vitro [102].

The possible donor-acceptor interactions among the valence hybrids are constrained by diatomic symmetry to the five possible combinations shown in Table 3.14. For simplicity, we shall temporarily suppress the subscript atoms in the NBO symbols (which are now simply indicated as a, nx,...). We also introduce a special typographic convention to denote each type of NBO (curved bonds for 7tx and ny, opposed arrows for complementary y and y, and so forth), as shown in Table 3.14. (The corresponding typographic convention for nonbonded NBOs will consist of a short bar on the atomic symbol, A for hn, A for pA, and A for py.) We also employ the convention of attaching an asterisk ( ) to denote an unfilled orbital, i.e., an orbital that is formally serving as an acceptor in a donor-acceptor interaction (the star says I m empty ). Thus, the notation px —> pf denotes an interaction from a filled pA orbital on the first atom to an unfilled pA on the second atom.46...
