Delivery vectors for mini-Tn10 transposons function in Bacillus subtilis (M. A. Petit, C. Bruand, L. Janniére, and S. D. Ehrlich, J. Bacteriol. 172:6736-6740, 1990). Using this system, we identified a new gene (sytA) whose inactivation affected regulation of genes of sucrose metabolism. For cloning the sytA::Tn10 insertion in Escherichia coli, we developed a methodology similar to that commonly used for B. subtilis Tn917 insertions. We constructed a plasmid which can be used to insert (by in vivo recombination) a ColE1 origin linked to a spectinomycin resistance gene (ori-spc element) into mini-Tn10 transposons inserted into the B. subtilis chromosome. DNA extracted from a sytA::Tn10::ori-spc transformant was cut with restriction enzymes that do not cut into the Tn10::ori-spc sequence; plasmids containing the sytA::Tn10 insertion were cloned by self-ligation, followed by transformation of E. coli. To obtain the wild-type sytA region, one of these plasmids was ligated with an E. coli-B. subtilis shuttle vector conferring erythromycin resistance, and the hybrid was used to transform the wild-type B. subtilis strain. Erythromycin-resistant transformants, detected as spectinomycin sensitive, resulted from conversion of the insertion mutation by the resident wild-type locus. The shuttle plasmid containing the wild-type locus could then be recovered in E. coli. 相似文献

A new cloning system for Bacillus subtilis comprising elements of phage, plasmid and transposon vectors 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A new cloning system for Bacillus subtilis was devised which makes use of a combination of Tn917-containing phage SP beta derivatives and Tn917-containing Escherichia coli-B. subtilis shuttle plasmids. This system allows the initial cloning of genes in single copy, via 'prophage transformation', with a selection for complementation of mutational defects in B. subtilis hosts and permits subsequent transfer of the cloned material by homologous recombination to low-copy and high-copy vectors that replicate in both B. subtilis and E. coli. Because cloned sequences are adjacent to pB322-derived DNA in the recombinant phages, inserts can also be 'rescued' directly from the phage DNA after digestion with appropriate restriction enzymes, circularization of the fragments by ligation and transformation of an E. coli recipient. Two genomic libraries of B. subtilis chromosomal Sau3A-generated partial-digest fragments in the size ranges of 5-8 kb and 8-10 kb were constructed and screened for the complementation of mutations aroI906, cysA14, dal-1, glyB133, metC3, purA16, purB33, thrA5, trpC2 and recE4. In all cases, specialized transducing phages carrying inserts that complemented the selected markers were recovered. Inserts complementing the dal-1 and trpC2 mutations could be transferred from recombinant phages to Tn917-containing plasmids by homologous recombination without in vitro subcloning. Another insert complementing the purB33 mutation was rescued directly into E. coli from a recombinant phage DNA. 相似文献

Plasmid vectors capable for propagation of Bacillus subtilis DNA fragments containing riboflavin genes were constructed. Cloning of rib operon using pUB110 derivatives was performed in recE4 strain by using sequentional rescue of plasmids containing subfragments of the operon. Also, rib operon was cloned on the vectors containing DNA repeats. It was shown that the presence of direct and inverted repeats within plasmids allows to transform B. subtilis cells by monomers of plasmid DNA. Vectors that contained repeated sequences of DNA and ensured efficient cloning of genetic material in B. subtilis recipient cells were constructed. The use of streptococcal plasmid pSM19035 allowed to obtain vectors which were suitable for cloning large DNA fragments (6 MD and even more) in B. subtilis. A model of B. subtilis transformation by various types of plasmid DNA is presented. The model is in agreement with the general conception of chromosomal DNA transformation. 相似文献

The replication origins of three large Bacillus thuringiensis plasmids, derived from B. thuringiensis HD263 subsp. kurstaki, have been cloned in Escherichia coli and sequenced. The replication origins, designated ori 43, ori 44, and ori 60, were isolated from plasmids of 43, 44, and 60 MDa, respectively. Each cloned replication origin exhibits incompatibility with the resident B. thuringiensis plasmid from which it was derived. Recombinant plasmids containing the three replication origins varied in their ability to transform strains of B. thuringiensis, Bacillus megaterium, and Bacillus subtilis. Analysis of the derived nucleotide and amino acid sequences indicates that the replication origins are nonhomologous, implying independent derivations. No significant homology was found to published sequences of replication origins derived from the single-stranded DNA plasmids of gram-positive bacteria, and shuttle vectors containing the three replication origins do not appear to generate single-stranded DNA intermediates in B. thuringiensis. The replication origin regions of the large plasmids are each characterized by a single open reading frame whose product is essential for replication in B. thuringiensis. The putative replication protein of ori 60 exhibits partial homology to the RepA protein of the Bacillus stearothermophilus plasmid pTB19. The putative replication protein of ori 43 exhibits weak but extensive homology to the replication proteins of several streptococcal plasmids, including the open reading frame E replication protein of the conjugative plasmid pAM beta 1. The nucleotide sequence of ori 44 and the amino acid sequence of its putative replication protein appear to be nonhomologous to other published replication origin sequences. 相似文献

An essential region (2.3 kb) for the replication of a low-copy-number plasmid, pBS-2, has been identified and cloned into plasmid pHV60 in Bacillus subtilis. The resultant plasmid, pKW1, and two other plasmids, pC194 (medium copy number) and pTP5 (high copy number), were examined by double radio-labelling and gel electrophoresis to determine which host functions are required for their replication in B. subtilis. Replication of pKW1 requires the functions of most dna genes, in particular dnaB, C, E, F, G and H; pC194 requires only dnaG and H; and pTP5 requires dnaE, F, G and H. Thus dnaG and dnaH are required for the replication of all three plasmids tested, even though each plasmid showed a different spectrum of dependency on other host functions. Because of its greater dependence on host functions and its low copy number, pKW1 should be a useful model with which to investigate the function of host genes in the replication of DNA in B. subtilis. pKW1 should also be a useful shuttle vector for cloning of genes in B. subtilis in cases when high gene dosage might be a problem. 相似文献

A Bacillus subtilis plasmid that can be packaged as single-stranded DNA in Escherichia coli: use for oligodeoxynucleotide-directed mutagenesis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A Bacillus subtilis/Escherichia coli shuttle vector was modified to contain the origin of DNA replication of the E. coli filamentous phage f1, in both orientations. Upon superinfection with and f1-related phage of an E. coli strain containing either of the modified vectors, the single-stranded (ss) form of the plasmid was packaged in virions and released to the culture medium. Each of these ss DNAs has been purified from the virions and used as a template for oligodeoxynucleotide-directed mutagenesis. The resulting mutations were demonstrated by DNA sequencing. The capacity of these vectors to be isolated as phage ss DNA from E. coli and to replicate as plasmids in B. subtilis makes them convenient substrates for the production of oligodeoxynucleotide-directed mutations for studies in B. subtilis. 相似文献

An improved beta-galactosidase alpha-complementation system for molecular cloning in Bacillus subtilis 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The recently described beta-galactosidase alpha-complementation system for molecular cloning in Bacillus subtilis [Haima et al., Gene 86 (1990) 63-69]was optimized in several ways. First, the efficiency of translation of the lac Z delta M15 gene was improved. Second, the plasmid-borne lacZ delta M15 gene was segregationally stabilized by integration into the B. subtilis chromosome. Third, a new lacZ alpha complementing cloning vector was constructed, containing more unique target sites. It was shown that large heterologous DNA fragments (up to at least 29 kb) could be cloned with lacZ alpha-complementing vectors carrying the replication functions of the cryptic B. subtilis plasmid pTA1060, and that these inserts were structurally stably maintained for at least 100 generations of growth. 相似文献

The complete nucleotide sequence of plasmid pGI3 from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. thuringiensis H1.1. was obtained. Although this 11,365-bp molecule contained at least 11 putative open reading frames (ORFs), extensive database searches did not reveal any homologous sequences with the exception of ORF6, which displayed similarity to the largest ORF of pSTK1, a 1,883-bp cryptic plasmid isolated from Bacillus stearothermophilus. Deletion analysis to determine the pGI3 minimal replicon revealed that ORF6 is the rep gene. Replication occurred via a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) intermediate, as demonstrated by S1 treatment and Southern hybridization in nondenaturating conditions. Interestingly, however, no homology was found between the pGI3 (ORF6) and pSTK1 (ORF3) rep genes and those from other single-stranded DNA plasmids, nor was there any DNA similarity to the double-strand origins of replication characterized so far, indicating that pGI3 and pSTK1 form another, new family of ssDNA plasmids. PCR analysis revealed that the pGI3 rep gene is largely distributed among B. thuringiensis strains but can also be found in B. cereus and B. mycoides strains, albeit at a lower frequency. Finally, segregation experiments performed with B. subtilis and B. thuringiensis showed that the pGI3 derivatives, including the minimal replicon, were segregationally stable at temperatures suitable for B. thuringiensis growth (<43 degrees C). 相似文献

Molecular cloning in Bacillus subtilis of a Bacillus licheniformis gene encoding a thermostable alpha amylase 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
A resident-plasmid cloning system developed for Bacillus subtilis has been used to isolate recombinant plasmids carrying DNA from Bacillus licheniformis which confer alpha-amylase activity on alpha-amylase-negative mutants of B. subtilis. These plasmids contain a 3550-bp insert at the EcoRI site of the plasmid pBD64. Subcloning various lengths of the B. licheniformis DNA has localised the gene to a 2550-bp BclI fragment. We present evidence that the cloned fragment codes for a B. licheniformis heat-stable alpha-amylase with a temperature optimum of 93 degrees C. The foreign gene is expressed efficiently in B. subtilis and is stably maintained. 相似文献

The objectives of this study were to establish transformation protocols for Lactobacillus plantarum CD033 and Lactobacillus buchneri CD034, two industrial silage strains and to test the influence of selected origins of replication on plasmid copy number, plasmid stability, and plasmid incompatibility in these strains. Electro-transformation protocols were optimized by examination of the influence of different electroporation solutions and cell wall weakening agents on transformation efficiency. Using Lithium acetate as cell wall weakening agent, we could achieve transformation efficiencies of 8?×?10(4) transformants per 1?μg DNA for L. buchneri CD034 which is to our knowledge the highest described for this species up to now. In order to test feasibility of previously described origins of replication derived from Bacillus subtilis, L. plantarum, Lactococcus lactis, and two novel L. buchneri CD034 plasmids to drive replication in our two selected Lactobacillus strains, six shuttle vectors were constructed. Results indicate that, in terms of stable propagation and high gene copy numbers (up to 238 copies/chromosome), the most suitable origins of replication for the construction of expression vectors for the selected silage strains were the ones derived from the novel L. buchneri CD034 plasmids. 相似文献

The DNA replication machinery, various regions of the chromosome, and some plasmids occupy characteristic subcellular positions in bacterial cells. We visualized the location of a multicopy plasmid, pHP13, in living cells of Bacillus subtilis using an array of lac operators and LacI-green fluorescent protein (GFP). In the majority of cells, plasmids appeared to be highly mobile and randomly distributed. In a small fraction of cells, there appeared to be clusters of plasmids located predominantly at or near a cell pole. We also monitored the effects of the presence of multicopy plasmids on the position of DNA polymerase using a fusion of a subunit of DNA polymerase to GFP. Many of the plasmid-containing cells had extra foci of the replisome, and these were often found at uncharacteristic locations in the cell. Some of the replisome foci were dynamic and highly mobile, similar to what was observed for the plasmid. In contrast, replisome foci in plasmid-free cells were relatively stationary. Our results indicate that in B. subtilis, plasmid-associated replisomes are recruited to the subcellular position of the plasmid. Extending this notion to the chromosome, we postulated that the subcellular position of the chromosomally associated replisome is established by the subcellular location of oriC at the time of initiation of replication. 相似文献

Two plasmids, pLAB1000 and pLAB2000 (3.3 and 9.1 kb, respectively), have been isolated from a grass silage strain of Lactobacillus hilgardii. Both plasmids were cloned in Escherichia coli and characterized through restriction mapping. A 1.6-kb XbaI-SacI fragment of pLAB1000 appeared to be sufficient for autonomous replication in Lactobacillus plantarum and in Bacillus subtilis. Different shuttle vectors for E. coli and gram-positive bacteria were developed using the pLAB1000 plasmid. These could stably be maintained in Lactobacillus, Enterococcus, and Bacillus under selective conditions. Plasmids sharing DNA homologies with pLAB1000 have been observed in different strains of the related species L. plantarum. 相似文献

Plasmid pSL103 was previously constructed by cloning a Trp fragment (approximately 2.3 X 10(6) daltons) from restriction endonuclease EcoRI-digested chromosome DNA of Bacillus pumilus using the neomycin-resistance plasmid pUB110 (approximately 2.8 X 10(6) daltons) as vector and B. subtilis as transformation recipient. In the present study the EcoRI Trp fragment from pSL103 was transferred in vitro to EcoRI fragments of the Bacillus plasmid pPL576 to determine the ability of the plasmid fragments to replicate in B. subtilis. Endonuclease EcoRI digestion of pPL576 (approximately 28 X 10(6) daltons) generated three fragments having molecular weights of about 13 X 13(6) (the A fragment), 9.5 X 10(6) (B fragment, and 6.5 X 10(6) (C fragment). Trp derivatives of pPL576 fragments capable of autonomous replication in B. subtilis contained the B fragment (e.g., pSL107) or both the B and C fragments (e.g., pSL108). Accordingly, the B fragment of pPL576 contains information essential for autonomous replication. pSL107 and pSL108 are compatible with pUB110. Constructed derivatives of the compatible plasmids pPL576 and pUB110, harboring genetically distinguishable EcoRI-generated Trp fragments cloned from the DNA of a B. pumilus strain, exhibited relatively high frequency recombination for a trpC marker when the plasmid pairs were present in a recombination-proficient strain of B. subtilis. No recombination was detected when the host carried the chromosome mutation recE4. Therefore, the recE4 mutation suppresses recombination between compatible plasmids that contain homologous segments. 相似文献

A 5.8-kb fragment of the large conjugative plasmid pAW63 from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki HD73 containing all the information for autonomous replication was cloned and sequenced. By deletion analysis, the pAW63 replicon was reduced to a 4.1-kb fragment harboring four open reading frames (ORFs). Rep63A (513 amino acids [aa]), encoded by the largest ORF, displayed strong similarity (40% identity) to the replication proteins from plasmids pAMbeta1, pIP501, and pSM19035, indicating that the pAW63 replicon belongs to the pAMbeta1 family of gram-positive theta-replicating plasmids. This was confirmed by the facts that no single-stranded DNA replication intermediates could be detected and that replication was found to be dependent on host-gene-encoded DNA polymerase I. An 85-bp region downstream of Rep63A was also shown to have strong similarity to the origins of replication of pAMbeta1 and pIP501, and it is suggested that this region contains the bona fide pAW63 ori. The protein encoded by the second large ORF, Rep63B (308 aa), was shown to display similarity to RepB (34% identity over 281 aa) and PrgP (32% identity over 310 aa), involved in copy control of the Enterococcus faecalis plasmids pAD1 and pCF10, respectively. No significant similarity to known proteins or DNA sequences could be detected for the two smallest ORFs. However, the location, size, hydrophilicity, and orientation of ORF6 (107 codons) were analogous to those features of the putative genes repC and prgO, which encode stability functions on plasmids pAD1 and pCF10, respectively. The cloned replicon of plasmid pAW63 was stably maintained in Bacillus subtilis and B. thuringiensis and displayed incompatibility with the native pAW63. Hybridization experiments using the cloned replicon as a probe showed that pAW63 has similarity to large plasmids from other B. thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki strains and to a strain of B. thuringiensis subsp. alesti. 相似文献

A small 2.1-kb plasmid called pLP1 was extracted from Lactobacillus plantarum CCM 1904 (ATCC 8014) and cloned into the Escherichia coli pUC19 plasmid. As determined by DNA-DNA Southern hybridization with a pLP1-radioactively labeled probe, other lactic acid bacteria such as L. curvatus, L. sake, Carnobacterium, and Leuconostoc mesenteroides harbor pLP1-related plasmids. Shuttle vectors based on the pLP1 replicon were constructed by inserting the erythromycin-resistance gene from pVA891 into the various pUC19-pLP1 constructions. pLP1-based shuttle vector transformation efficiencies (TE) by electroporation were compared to TE of a broad-host-range plasmid pGK12 in different lactobacilli strains. Expression of the pUC19-pLP1 plasmids in Escherichia coli maxicells showed that pLP1 encodes for a 37,000 MW protein which can act in trans allowing the replication of plasmids in which this protein is truncated. The pLP1-based shuttle vectors producing this protein replicate in lactobacilli and also in Bacillus subtilis. A pLP1-free strain was obtained by incompatibility with a pLP1-based shuttle vector introduced in L. plantarum CCM 1904 by electroporation. The absence of pLP1 has no incidence on the strain phenotype suggesting that pLP1 is not essential for the strain in our laboratory conditions. 相似文献

The effect of structural peculiarities of DNAs from integrative plasmids on the transformation activity was studied. Monomeric forms of the plasmids can only transform B. subtilis competent cells, when plasmid selective marker is inserted into chromosomal fragment within the plasmid. Polymeric forms are needed for efficient transformation. Both single- and double-stranded DNAs of integrative plasmids transform no B.subtilis protoplasts, this being irrespective of plasmid structure. 相似文献
