A new cloning vector, pMFY31, has been constructed based on the high-copy-number, broad-host-range plasmid RSF1010. The plasmid has a size of 13.2 kb and carries the Apr, Cmr, and Tcr genes. It contains unique PstI, EcoRI, HindIII, BamHI, and SalI sites, all of which are located within the antibiotic resistance genes, therefore all sites are applicable to insertional inactivation. We also constructed pMFY40, a 11.6 kb derivative of pMFY31, by the elimination of the Cmr gene. Plasmid pMFY31 has been efficiently introduced into a Pseudomonas putida strain not only by plasmid-DNA transformation but also by conjugal co-transfer with the helper plasmid, and was maintained stably in the strain. 相似文献

We investigated the use of Minos as a vector for transgenesis in the silkworm, Bombyx mori. We first constructed a vector plasmid with the green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene fused with the silkworm cytoplasmic
actin gene (A3) promoter, and a helper plasmid with the Minos transposase gene controlled by the same A3 promoter. Injection of the vector and helper plasmid DNA into silkworm eggs produced
transgenic animals in the following generation. The efficiency of transgenic silkworm production using this method was much
lower than that obtained using piggyBac-mediated germ line transformation. However, >40-fold increase in the efficiency of producing transgenic silkworms was obtained
using an in vitro synthesized source of Minos transposase mRNA. We conclude that the Minos transposon is a useful vector for construction of transgenic silkworms, particularly when in vitro synthesized mRNA is used.
This is the first report showing that Minos can be used as a vector for germ-line transformation in lepidopteran insects. 相似文献

A shuttle vector for Gluconobacter suboxydans and Escherichia coli was constructed by ligation of a cryptic plasmid, pMV201, found in G. suboxydans IFO 3130 to E. coli plasmid pACYC177. The chimeric plasmid named pMGlOl carries the ampicillin resistance gene derived from pACYC177 and transforms G. suboxydans var. α IFO 3254 as well as E. coli. The transformation conditions for G. suboxydansvar. α IFO 3254 were examined using pMGlOl DNA. Competent cells were induced efficiently by treatment with LiCl or RbCl CaCl2 which induced the competency of Acetobacter was much less effective. Addition of polyethylene glycol enhanced the transformation efficiency significantly. An efficiency of approximately 102 transformants per μg DNA was finally obtained. 相似文献

A 9.5-kb shuttle vector capable of replication and selection in both Escherichia coli and Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens was constructed. Plasmid pUC118 provided replication functions and ampicillin resistance selection in E. coli. In B. fibrisolvens, replication was controlled by the native plasmid pRJF1 from strain OB156, and selectability was provided by a 3.5-kb fragment of plasmid pAM1 containing the erythromycin resistance gene. Optimum conditions for transformation were 15 kV/cm, 2 h recovery, and plating in an agar overlay on medium containing 10 g erythromycin/ml. Maximum efficiency was 1.1×105 transformants per g plasmid DNA (average 3×104), and restriction mechanisms reduced efficiency by a factor of 2×102. Nonselective growth for 200 generations gave no measurable loss of plasmid. 相似文献

A host-vector system was constructed in Bacillus megaterium strain NK84–0128, an oxetanocin A producer. The replication origin of an endogeneous plasmid, P–4, was used to construct a potential plasmid vector, pSM5, which had a chloramphenicol resistance gene as a selective marker. Plasmid transformation by a protoplast method was used in B. megaterium strain NK84–0128. The maximum transformation frequency attained with the pSM5 plasmid was 2.0 x 104cfu/µg DNA. 相似文献

Summary Sporulation gene spoIVC of Bacillus subtilis was cloned by the prophage transformation method in temperate phage 105. The specialized transducing phage, 105spoIVC-1, restored the sporulation of the asporogenous mutant of B. subtilis strain 1S47 (spoIVC133). Transformation experiments showed that the spoIVC gene resides on a 7.3 kb HindIII restriction fragment. Subsequent analysis of the 7.3 kb HindIII fragment with restriction endonuclease EcoRI showed that the spoIVC gene resides on a 3.6 kb EcoRI fragment within the 7.3 kb fragment. The 3.6 kb fragment was recloned into the unique EcoRI site of plasmid pUB110 and deletion derivatives having a deletion within the 3.6 kb insert were constructed. The plasmid carrying the entire spoIVC gene restored the sporulation of strain HU1214 (spoIVC133, recE4) at a frequency of 107 spores/ml, and reduced the sporulation of strain HU1018 (spo
+, recE4) to 107 spores/ml. 相似文献

Procedures for electrotransformation have been adapted for three pathovars of Xanthomonas campestris: campestris, vesicatoria and manihotis. Three differently sized plasmids (51, 9.3 and 3.3 kb) at different concentrations (10, 30 and 50 ng/sample) and different field strengths (10, 12, 14 and 18 kV/cm) were used. The efficiency of transformation was dependent on the recipient strain and the plasmid introduced. In general, a field strength of 14 kV/cm as well as a concentration of 30 ng plasmid DNA/sample seemed to be adequate for most conditions. Only X. campestris pv. vesicatoria strain 479 required a higher field strength for better efficiency. The plasmid size was inversely related to the efficiency of transformation; up to 1.6 × 1010, 5.3 × 107 and 3.7 × 105 transformants/g DNA were obtained using the pXG31 (3.3 kb), pUFR027 (9.3 kb) and RP4 (51 kb) plasmids, respectively. 相似文献

The cloning vector pMK18 was developed through the fusion of the minimal replicative region from an indigenous plasmid of Thermus sp. ATCC27737, a gene cassette encoding a thermostable resistance to kanamycin, and the replicative origin and multiple cloning site of pUC18. Plasmid pMK18 showed transformation efficiencies from 108 to 109 per microgram of plasmid in Thermus thermophilus HB8 and HB27, both by natural competence and by electroporation. We also show that T. thermophilus HB27 can take pMK18 modified by the Escherichia coli methylation system with the same efficiency as its own DNA. To demonstrate its usefulness as a cloning vector, a gene encoding the β-subunit of a thermostable nitrate reductase was directly cloned in T. thermophilus HB27 from a gene library. Its further transfer to E. coli also proved its utility as a shuttle vector. 相似文献

Summary
Synechocystis 6803 contains at least four cryptic plasmids of 2.27 kb (pUS1, pUS2 and pUS3) and 5.20 kb (pUS4). The 1.70 kb HpaI fragments of the related plasmids pUS2 and pUS3 were cloned into the Apr gene of the E. coli plasmid pACYC177, yielding the Kmr hybrid plasmids pUF12 and pUF3 respectively. pUF3 recombines in Synechocystis 6803 with a 2.27 kb plasmid giving the Kmr shuttle vector pUF311. The 1.35 kb HaeII fragment containing the Cm2 gene of the E. coli plasmid pACYC184 was cloned in pUF311 generating the Cmr Kmr shuttle vector pFCLV7. Wild-type cells of Synechocystis 6803 are transformed, albeit poorly, by the plasmids pUF3, pUF12 and pFCLV7. pFCLV7 very efficiently transforms the SUF311 strain of Synechocystis 6803 containing pUF311 as a resident plasmid. This is due to recombination between the homologous parts of pFCLV7 and pUF311. For the same reason the strain SUF311 is also efficiently transformable by E. coli plasmids, as shown for pLF8, provided that they have some homology with the E. coli part of pUF311.The combined use of Synechocystis 6803 strain SUF311 and of plasmids pFCLV7 and pLF8 generates an efficient host-vector system for gene cloning in this facultatively heterotrophic cyanobacterium. 相似文献

Summary A method was developed for the introduction of plasmids into Clostridium botulinum by electroporation. A 4.4 kb plasmid vector, pGK12, which contains genes for resistance to erythromycin (Emr) and chloramphenicol (Cmr) was electroporated into C. botulinum type A (Hall A). The highest transformation efficiency was obtained using midlog phase cells, 10% PEG 8000 as the electroporation solution, and 2.5 kV field strength. The transformation efficiency was highest (103 transformants/g of DNA) when 1 g of plasmid DNA and 4 × 108 CFU/ml of recipient cells were used. Plasmid DNA recovered from the transformants was indistinguishable from that introduced on the basis of restriction enzyme digestion and agarose gel electrophoresis. 相似文献

An electro-transformation system has been developed forNocardia asteroides andNocardia corallina by using aNocardia-Escherichia coli shuttle vector. The shuttle vector, named pCY104, was constructed by joining a 2.5-kb crypticN. asteroides plasmid pCY101 with theE. coli plasmid pIJ4625. The resistance genes for kanamycin, chloramphenicol, and thiostrepton on plasmid pCY104 were expressed inN. asteroides andN. corallina. The transformation method was optimized forN. asteroides, and transformation efficiency of 8×104 transformants per g plasmid DNA was achieved routinely. 相似文献

Summary We used lambda and plasmid vectors containing the am
+ gene in an insert of from 2.7 to 9.1 kb, to transform am point mutant and deletion strains. A total of 199 transformants were examined with the potential to yield am
– transformants by homologous recombination. When we used vectors that had 9.1 kb of homology with the chromosomal DNA, 30% of the transformants obtained were the result of homologous recombination regardless of whether the vector was a lambda molecule, a circular plasmid, or a plasmid that had been linearized prior to transformation. When vectors with up to 5.1 kb of homology were used, very few transformants (1 of 89 tested) resulted from homologous recombination. Of a sample of 29 ectopic integration events obtained by transformation with the 9.1 kb fragment cloned in a vector, 18 included a major part (usually almost all) of both arms of lambda with the entire Neurospora 9.1 kb insert between them. Four included only long arm sequence together with an adjacent segment of the insert containing the am gene. The remaining seven were the result of multiple integrations. There was no evidence of circularization of the vector prior to integration. All transformants that had multiple copies of the am gene appeared to be subject to the RIP process, which causes multiple mutations in duplicated sequences during the sexual cycle. 相似文献

Construction of a gene bank of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata using a broad host range DNA cloning system 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
A gene bank of the phototrophic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas capsulata was constructed using the binary plasmid system pRK290/pRK2013. Fragments of about 20 kb of chromosomal DNA of R. capsulata strain 37b4 were inserted into the cloning vector pRK290. The hybrid plasmids of the gene bank, maintained in Escherichia coli HB101 were transferred by conjugation to R. capsulata strains defective in the photosynthetic apparatus with frequencies of 5×10-4 to 5×10-2. Phototrophically growing transconjugants occurred with frequencies of 5×10-7 to 5×10-6. Recombination between the hybrid plasmids and the R. capsulata chromosome was shown. The hybrid plasmid pRCF1002, carrying a 25 kb insert of R. capsulata wild type DNA, was isolated from one E. coli clone of the gene bank. It reconstituted some bacteriochlorophyll- and photosynthetic negative mutants to phototrophic growth.Abbreviations Bchl

Summary A plasmid integration technique was developed for insertional inactivation of chromosomal Listeria monocytogenes genes. A Listeria-Escherichia coli shuttle vector (pLSV1) was constructed which carried the temperature-sensitive gram-positive replication origin from plasmid pTV32(Ts). An internal fragment of the listeriolysin gene (IisA) was cloned into pLSV1 to create pLSV2. In L. monocytogenes pLSV2 transformants, plasmid pLSV2 integrated into the L. monocytogenes chromosome at a frequency of 2 × 10–3 via lisA homology and these cells could be selected at 42° C using a plasmid-encoded erythromycin resistance. Plasmid integration resulted in disruption of the lisA gene, production of a truncated, immunologically cross-reactive listeriolysin protein and loss of the hemolytic phenotype. An improved Listeria protoplast transformation method is also described which facilitates genetic manipulation of Listeria species. 相似文献

A runaway vector for mammalian cells was constructed from the simian virus 40 (SV40) genome with a temperature-sensitive mutation of the large T antigen and bacterial neo
r gene. Replication of this plasmid was repressed above 39°C and vigorous DNA propagation was observed below 33°C in simian CV-1 cells. The human erythropoietin gene was inserted downstream of the SV40 late promoter of the plasmid and the recombinant plasmid was introduced into CV-1 cells. By a temperature shift from 37 to 33°C, the plasmid copy number increased from 5 × 102 to 5 × 103 copies per cell and the specific production rate of erythropoietin increased more than ten-fold. The bacterial-derived sequences such as the neo
r gene and vector pUC sequences were prone to delete but the main body of the recombinant plasmid such as SV40 and the erythropoietin-coding sequences were stably maintained at either 33 or 37°C. 相似文献

Molecular cloning and genetic mapping of the PET494 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Summary The activity of the nuclear gene PET494 is required to allow expression of the yeast mitochondrial gene oxi2. To aid the study of the mechanism of action of PET494 we have isolated this gene from yeast DNA. A clone bank of yeast DNA fragments in a yeast-E. coli shuttle vector was screened by transformation for a plasmid able to complement the pet494-1 amber mutation. A complementing plasmid was obtained that contained a unique 4.4 kb yeast sequence. This 4.4 kb sequence contains the PET494 gene. Integration of a plasmid containing it into chromosomal DNA by homologous recombination, and subsequent genetic analysis, demonstrated that the 4.4 kb fragment was tightly linked to the pet494-1 mutation. In addition, the corresponding 4.4 kb sequence isolated from a pet494-1 mutant failed to complement the mutation. A 2 kb fragment, subcloned from the original plasmid retained the ability to complement the mutation. The pet494-1 mutation maps to chromosome XIV between rna2 and lys9, approximately 2.4 cm from lys9. 相似文献

Versatile plasmid vectors useful for gene cloning in Brevibacterium lactofermentum, a glutamic acid-producing bacterium, have been constructed. The trimethoprim (Tp)-resistant dihydrofolate reductase gene derived from chromosomal DNA of the Tp-resistant mutant of B. lactofermentum was introduced into pAM330, a cryptic plasmid in B. lactofermentum. The constructed cloning vector pAJ228 (7.6kb) exists in 10 to 20 copies in cells of B. lactofermentum and donated Tp-resistance, which is a useful selective marker of transformants. pAJ228 was further improved to a versatile plasmid vector pAJ224 having some profitable characteristics such as smaller size (3.7 kb), higher copy number (60 ~ 80 copies), and additional useful cloning sites (Bam HI, Pst I and Sal I) equipped with two different promoters arranged at both orientations for the expression of passenger DNA without promoter. These plasmids were stably retained in B. lactofermentum even in the absence of Tp over many generations. Thus, they have been found very powerful vectors for gene cloning in Brevibacterium and the related bacteria. 相似文献

A shuttle vector pGE1 (11.9 kb) which can replicate both in Gluconobacter oxydans and Escherichia coli was constructed from the cryptic Gluconobacter plasmid pGO3293S (9.9 kb, relaxed type) and E. coli plasmid pSUP301 (5 kb, Kmr, Apr, relaxed type). The plasmid pGO3293S is one of the endogenous plasmids of G. oxydans IFO 3293 which converts l-sorbose to 2-keto-l-gulonic acid (2KGA), an intermediate of vitamin C synthesis. The other plasmid, pSUP301, is a conjugative plasmid which contains pACYC177 and the mob region from plasmid RP4. The plasmid pGE1 could be transferred into G. oxydans IFO 3293 with a high frequency (10−1 transconjugants/recipient) by a conjugal transfer system, and maintained very stably without antibiotic selection. pGE1 can be introduced and maintained in other acetic acid bacteria including Gluconobacter and Acetobacter. The presence of pGE1 did not inhibit the growth or 2KGA productivity of 2KGA-producing strains derived from G. oxydans IFO 3293. The usefulness of pGE1 as a vector was confirmed by subcloning the membrane-bound l-sorbosone dehydrogenase gene of A. liquefaciens IFO 12258 in G. oxydans IFO 3293 derivatives; in this subcloning, pGE1 could be further shortened to the 9.8 kb plasmid, pGE2. 相似文献

A versatile plasmid shuttle vector system was constructed, which is useful for genetic complementation of Helicobacter pylori strains or mutants with cloned genes of homologous or heterologous origin. The individual plasmid vectors consist of the
minimal essential genetic elements, including an origin of replication for Escherichia coli, a H. pylori-specific replicon originally identified on a small cryptic H. pylori plasmid, an oriT sequence and a multiple cloning site. Shuttle plasmid pHel2 carries a chloramphenicol resistance cassette (cat
GC) and pHel3 contains a kanamycin resistance gene (aphA-3) as the selectable marker; both are functional in E. coli and H. pylori. The shuttle plasmids were introduced into the H. pylori strain P1 by natural transformation. A efficiency of 7.0 × 10−7 and 4.7 × 10−7 transformants per viable recipient was achieved with pHel2 and pHel3, respectively, and both vectors showed stable, autonomous
replication in H. pylori. An approximately 100-fold higher H. pylori transformation rate was obtained when the shuttle vectors for transformation were isolated from the homologous H. pylori strain, rather than E. coli, indicating that DNA restriction and modification mechanisms play a crucial role in plasmid transformation. Interestingly,
both shuttle vectors could also be mobilized efficiently from E. coli into different H.␣pylori recipients, with pHel2 showing an efficiency of 2.0 × 10−5 transconjugants per viable H. pylori P1 recipient. Thus, DNA restriction seems to be strongly reduced or absent during conjugal transfer. The functional complementation
of a recA-deficient H. pylori mutant by the cloned H. pylorirecA
+ gene, and the expression of the heterologous green fluorescent protein (GFP) in H.␣pylori demonstrate the general usefulness of␣this system, which will significantly facilitate the molecular analysis of H. pylori virulence factors in the future.
