A novel method was used to screen differentially a cDNA library for clones representing serum-regulated mRNA species of low abundance. To increase the amount of probe available for screening, the cDNA probe was cloned and amplified. Two separate cDNA 'probe' libraries were constructed in the Escherichia coli plasmid vector pDE613, using poly(A)+mRNA from murine cells at 0 and 16 h after stimulation of a G0 population. Radiolabelled plasmid DNA from each library was hybridized sequentially to colony blots of the third 'target' library, constructed with mRNA from serum-stimulated cells in the Bacillus subtilis vector pBD214. Differential screening of the target cDNA library with the two probe libraries identified novel murine cDNA clones, some representing cytoplasmic poly(A)+RNA species of low (0.01%) abundance, accumulating after serum stimulation of a quiescent mouse embryo fibroblast population. One cDNA clone was found to correspond to mitochondrial 16S rRNA and a second was identified as the murine equivalent of previously described cDNA clones for the hamster 78-kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP78) and the rat immunoglobulin heavy-chain-binding protein. GRP78 mRNA has not previously been recognized as a serum-inducible message.  相似文献

Two pectin esterase cDNA clones representing different isozymes with ca. 95% homology were isolated from an early ripening tomato fruit cDNA library. Both clones were longer than previously published sequences, and the encoded proteins possessed extended (229–233 amino acid) putative N-terminal extensions. In addition, the mRNA species corresponding to the two clones showed differential levels of expression in fruit.  相似文献

A lambda gt11 cDNA library was constructed using poly(A)+ mRNA from thyrotropin (TSH)-stimulated Fisher rat thyroid (FRTL5) cells. The library was screened for nonthyroglobulin cDNA sequences by differential plaque filter hybridization using single-stranded cDNA probes synthesized from mRNA prepared from quiescent and TSH-stimulated FRTL5 cells. Thyroglobulin cDNA-containing recombinants in the library were avoided by prehybridizing the TSH probe to excess thyroglobulin cDNA. Of 48,000 clones screened, 60 were chosen as representing mRNA species whose abundance was increased in TSH-stimulated versus quiescent cultures. Southern blot analysis of 9 clones confirmed that the TSH-cDNA probe hybridized to a greater extent to the cDNA inserts than did the control probe. cDNA insert sizes varied between 0.3 kilobase (kb) and 1.0 kb. Northern slot blot analysis using as probes the cDNA of four of these clones (FC4, FC26, FC29, and FC43) demonstrated that TSH stimulation of FRTL5 cells increased the steady state levels of the respective mRNA species by 4-12-fold. For all 4 clones, increases in mRNA levels were apparent within approximately 1 h and were maximal after 14-18 h of TSH stimulation. Determination of the partial nucleotide sequence of these 4 clones confirmed that none was thyroglobulin, thyroid peroxidase, or any other gene previously reported to be stimulated by TSH. Three of the clones bore no homology to any known nucleotide sequence, but FC26 was 85% homologous with human ferritin H. Northern blot analysis using the FC26 cDNA insert as a probe confirmed hybridization to an mRNA species of 1 kb, the known size of ferritin H mRNA. In summary, using the technique of differential plaque filter hybridization, we have identified 4 new genes whose mRNA levels are increased by TSH stimulation of thyroid cells. One of these genes is homologous to human ferritin H.  相似文献

To identify gene products involved in castration-induced involution of the rat ventral prostate, we constructed a subtraction cDNA library of the ventral prostate from rats castrated for 48 h. The library was screened with subtracted cDNA probes enriched for sequences with a low copy number expressed in intact or castrated rats. As a result of differential screening, 48 cDNA clones representing 10 different induced mRNAs were isolated. The time course of these mRNA inductions after castration was examined. Within the first 24 h after castration, the level of mRNAs for these cDNA clones was significantly increased and it reached its peak by 48-72 h after castration. Although mRNAs for these cDNA clones were expressed in various tissues from intact rats, an increase in mRNA as a response to castration was observed only in the ventral prostate. Partial sequence analyses of the 10 cDNA clones indicate that three cDNA clones represent rat glutathione S-transferase Yb-1, Yb-2 and Yb-3 subunit mRNA sequences, but for others respective homologues could not be found in a search of the GenBank database (release 67).  相似文献

We describe the construction and quality analysis of six cDNA libraries from the liver, ovary, testis, brain, spleen and muscle tissues of adult Atlantic salmon. The cDNA libraries were then screened with total cDNA probes to catalogue clones representing the abundant and rare mRNA populations in each tissue. Subsequently, the 5'-terminal DNA sequences of 1152 cDNA clones, composed of 96 clones from each of the abundant and rare mRNA populations in the six tissues, were determined. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that 510 (50%) of the salmon expressed sequence tags (ESTs) of sufficient length showed significant homology to previously identified genes from salmonid and other species, while 517 (50%) of salmon ESTs were unidentified or novel. After accounting for multi-EST redundancy, the 510 identified ESTs provided DNA sequence markers for 178 salmon genes which are listed in terms of tissue of origin and mRNA abundance class.  相似文献

A porcine brain microvessel-derived cDNA library enriched in blood-brain-barrier-specific sequences was constructed by a subtractive cloning procedure. Two cDNA clones from this library were found to encode a glucose transport protein. These clones were used to isolate a nearly full length cDNA from a representative brain microvessel library. Analysis of the amino-acid sequence deduced from the cDNA sequence revealed 97% identity with the human HepG2 glucose carrier. Amino-acid substitutions appear to be clustered in certain regions of the polypeptide. The nucleotide sequences of the 3'-noncoding regions close to the putative polyadenylation sites are highly conserved in glucose transporter mRNAs of different species. The expression of this mRNA has been investigated in various tissues and shown to be decreased in primary cultures of brain microvascular endothelial cells.  相似文献

A cDNA library was used to measure changes in many individual mRNAs during muscle differentiation in culture. A library of 1000 clones was constructed from total myofiber poly(A) RNA. About 23% of these clones gave a detectable colony hybridization signal using end-labeled myofiber mRNA, the remainder containing muscle sequences too rare to be detected with this assay. The 230 positive clones were grouped into four classes based on relative visual intensity. Reconstruction experiments using pure globin mRNA enable us to determine the approximate percentage of total RNA made up by each mRNA hybridizing to a cDNA clone. Those clones containing sequences complementary to developmentally regulated mRNAs were identified by a differential hybridization procedure. The cDNA library was screened with end-labeled mRNA from both undifferentiated myoblasts and differentiated myofibers. Although the bulk of the clones hybridized essentially the same with both RNA populations, several dozen were found which hybridized differentially. Some clones contained sequences which were not present at all in myoblasts and present in very high quantities in myofibers. Others contained sequences found in both myoblasts and myofibers but in increased quantities in the differentiated cells. Still others contained sequences which decreased in quantity during muscle differentiation. The clones in the first group were chosen for immediate analysis since they likely contain contractile protein mRNA sequences. However, all the characterized cDNA clones can now be used as probes to study the chromosomal organization and developmental expression of genes active during muscle differentiation.  相似文献

Summary Near-isogenic cultivars of Hordeum vulgare which differ for the Mlp gene for resistance to Erysiphe graminis f.sp. hordei were inoculated with race 3 of this pathogen and in vitro translation products of mRNA populations compared by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis and fluorography. This revealed the presence of new mRNA species in infected leaves compared to non-inoculated controls. These new mRNA species were more abundant in resistant leaves than susceptible leaves. A cDNA library was prepared from poly(A)+RNA isolated from infected leaves carrying the Mlp gene for resistance (cvMlp). The library was screened by differential hybridization using [32P]-labelled cDNA prepared from poly(A)+RNA of both control and infected leaves. Six cDNA clones showing greater hybridization to cDNA prepared from infected leaves were selected. These six cDNA clones hybridized to DNA isolated from barley leaves but not to DNA from conidia of the fungus. In Northern blot analysis of RNA from infected leaves the six cDNA clones each hybridized to mRNA species of different size. Translation products for three of the cDNA clones corresponded to infection-related translation products identified on 2-dimensional fluorograms. The cDNA clones were used to study the kinetics of host mRNA induction during infection of the near-isogenic cultivars of barley. The host mRNA species corresponding to the cDNA clones were induced prior to 24 h after inoculation during the primary penetration processes. In addition the mRNAs corresponding to four of the cDNA clones increased to greater amounts in cvMlp than in the near-isogenic susceptible cultivar (cvmlp) over a 2-d period following inoculation. These results suggest that the Mlp gene has a regulatory role in host gene expression resulting in enhanced expression of several host mRNA species following infection by the powdery mildew fungus.  相似文献

A new approach to high sensitivity differential hybridization   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
We describe a new approach to differential hybridization, designed to identify cDNA clones representing rare mRNA species. Duplicate filters carrying a library of cDNA from phorbolmyristate acetate (PMA)-induced EL-4 cells in λgt11 were hybridized with high concentrations of unlabeled, cloned, single-stranded cDNA from induced and control EL-4 cells, respectively. Plaques binding single-stranded cDNA were revealed by a second round of hybridization with 35S-labeled DNA complementary to the vector moiety of the single-stranded cDNA. Plaques corresponding to PMA-induced mRNAs occurring at a level of about 1 part in 15000 were isolated. We believe the method is at least ten times more sensitive than conventional differential hybridization.  相似文献

Structure of three spliced mRNAs from region E3 of adenovirus type 2   总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13  
A cDNA library representing early adenovirus type 2 (Ad2) mRNA was constructed. The cDNA copies were inserted into the PstI cleavage site of the pBR322 plasmid, and clones containing sequences from region E3 of the Ad2 genome were identified by colony hybridization. Selected clones were characterized by restriction enzyme cleavage, hybridization, and partial DNA sequence analysis. The precise structure of three spliced mRNAs was established by comparing the results with the DNA sequence of region E3 from Ad2 (Herissé et al., Nucl. Acids Res. 8 (1980) 2173--2191; Herissé and Galibert, Nucl. Acids Res. 9 (1981) 1229--1249). One of the characterized mRNA species encodes the E3/19K glycoprotein, whereas the other two most likely encode the E3/14K protein. The results demonstrate, moreover, that certain splice points which are used to generate the major E3 mRNAs are also used to splice the supplementary leader segments to the fibre mRNA at late times after infection. Two separate poly(A)-addition sites were identified in region E3 by analysis of the cDNA clones; one is preceded by the hexanucleotide sequence AAUAAA, whereas the other is preceded by an altered hexanucleotide, having the sequence AUUAAA.  相似文献

cDNA clones encoding three classes of human actins have been isolated and characterized. The first two classes (gamma and beta, cytoplasmic actins) were obtained from a cDNA library constructed from simian virus 40-transformed human fibroblast mRNA, and the third class (alpha, muscle actin) was obtained from a cDNA library constructed from adult human muscle mRNA. A new approach was developed to enrich for full-length cDNAs. The human fibroblast cDNA plasmid library was linearized with restriction enzymes that did not cut the inserts of interest; it was then size-fractionated on gels, and the chimeric molecules of optimal length were selected for retransformation of bacteria. When the resulting clones were screened for actin-coding sequences it was found that some full-length cDNAs were enriched as much as 50- to 100-fold relative to the original frequency of full-length clones in the total library. Two types of clones were distinguished. One of these clones encodes gamma actin and contains 100 base pairs of 5' untranslated region, the entire protein coding region, and the 3' untranslated region. The second class encodes beta actin, and the longest such clone contains 45 base pairs of 5' untranslated region plus the remainder of the mRNA extending to the polyadenylic acid tail. A third class, obtained from the human muscle cDNA library, encodes alpha actin and contains 100 base pairs of 5' untranslated region, the entire coding region, and the 3' untranslated region. Analysis of the DNA sequences of the 5' end of the clones demonstrated that although beta- and gamma-actin genes start with a methionine codon (MET-Asp-Asp-Asp and MET-Glu-Glu-Glu, respectively), the alpha-actin gene starts with a methionine codon followed by a cysteine codon (MET-CYS-Asp-Glu-Asp-Glu). Since no known actin proteins start with a cysteine, it is likely that post-translational removal of cysteine in addition to methionine accompanies alpha-actin synthesis but not beta- and gamma-actin synthesis. This observation has interesting implications both for actin function and actin gene regulation and evolution.  相似文献

A highly efficient immunoscreening procedure has been developed to isolate cDNA clones to the calcium-binding protein (CaBP) of the chick embryonic chorioallantoic membrane (CAM). A library of total CAM cDNA was constructed using the expression plasmid vector, pUC 19. Bacterial clones containing plasmids with CaBP cDNA inserts were detected immunohistochemically based on their expression of hybrid CaBP protein sequences. For immunodetection, nitrocellulose bacterial colony replicas were treated with specific antibodies to the CaBP followed by incubation with Staphylococcus aureus Protein A conjugated with alkaline phosphatase (AP) which served as a secondary immunoreagent. Positive clones were then histochemically identified based on AP enzyme activity. The identity of the immunopositive clones was further verified by in vitro translation of mRNA selected by hybridization to the cloned cDNA. The AP-based immunoscreening procedure yields stable reaction products with relatively low background, and should find general application for isolating specific cDNA clones from expression cDNA libraries.  相似文献
