Messenger RNA of rat 3-oxoacyl-CoA thiolase (acetyl-CoA acyltransferase), a mitochondrial matrix enzyme involved in fatty acid beta-oxidation, was enriched by immunoprecipitation of rat liver free polysomes and recombinant plasmids were prepared from the enriched mRNA by a modification of the vector-primer method of Okayama and Berg. The transformants were initially screened for 3-oxoacyl-CoA thiolase cDNA sequences by differential colony hybridization with [32P]cDNAs, synthesized from the immunopurified and unpurified mRNAs. The cDNA clones for 3-oxoacyl-CoA thiolase were identified by hybrid-arrested translation and hybrid-selected translation. One of the clones, designated pT1-1, contained a 700-base insert and hybridized to a mRNA species of 1.6 X 10(3) bases in rat liver. The transformants were rescreened using the cDNA insert of pT1-1 as a hybridization probe and a clone (pT1-19) with a 1.5 X 10(3)-base insert was obtained. Activity and concentration of 3-oxoacyl-CoA thiolase mRNA were quantified by in vitro translation and dot-blot analysis using the cDNA insert as a hybridization probe. The level of translatable and hybridizable mRNA in rat liver was increased about 5.1-fold and 4.6-fold, respectively, after administration of di-(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate, a potent inducer of the enzyme. The 3-oxoacyl-CoA thiolase mRNA levels thus determined correlated closely with levels of the activity and amount of this enzyme. 相似文献

We have developed the single-strand linker ligation method (SSLLM), which uses DNA ligase to add a dsDNA linker to single-stranded (ss) full-length cDNA. The linkers have random 6-bp (dN6 or dGN5) 3' overhangs that can ligate to any cDNA sequence, thereby facilitating the production of cDNA libraries with titers exceeding 1 x 10(6) independent clones. We confirmed that the 5' ends of cDNA inserts cloned by using SSLLM are full-length and include the 5' untranslated regions. The great advantage of our method is that the elimination of the GC tail simplifies the sequencing and protein translation of the full-length clones. Further, our method tags ss cDNAs more efficiently than does the traditional RNA ligase reaction. 相似文献

An Escherichia coli expression vector designed for the efficient synthesis and identification of a full-length cDNA clone is constructed. The vector allows the synthesis of double-stranded cDNAs downstream from the tandem lac control regions employing the vector-primer and linker procedure of Okayama and Berg [Mol. Cell Biol. 2 (1982) 161-170]. Full-length cDNA clones carrying the 5'-noncoding region in addition to the entire coding and 3'-noncoding regions can be expressed in E. coli cells without fusing their coding region to that of E. coli proteins; these clones are identified by colony immunoassay. The entire cDNA insert can be easily excised from the plasmid, since the multiple cloning sites in the vector are duplicated at both ends of the cDNA insert during its synthesis. 相似文献

By immunological screening of a cDNA library constructed from potato tuber poly(A)+ RNA and Escherichia coli expression vector pUC8 by the vector-primer and linker procedure of Okayama and Berg [(1982) Mol. Cell Biol. 2, 161-170], nearly full-length cDNA clones for patatin, a major protein of potato tuber, were identified. The cDNA carrying part of the 5'-noncoding region of the patatin mRNA, in addition to entire coding and 3'-noncoding regions, expressed prepatatin in E. coli cells by translational initiation inside cDNA. These results suggest that nearly full-length cDNA clones with entire coding region can be identified directly by immunological screening without gene fusion to E. coli proteins at least for some plant mRNAs. 相似文献

We have developed a novel gain-of-function system that we have named the FOX hunting system (Full-length cDNA Over-eXpressing gene hunting system). We used normalized full-length cDNA and introduced each cDNA into Arabidopsis by in planta transformation. About 10 000 independent full-length Arabidopsis cDNAs were expressed independently under the CaMV 35S promoter in Arabidopsis. Each transgenic Arabidopsis contained on average 2.6 cDNA clones and was monitored under various categories such as morphological changes, fertility and leaf color. We found 1487 possible morphological mutants from 15 547 transformants. When 115 pale green T(1) mutants were analyzed, 59 lines represented the mutant phenotypes in more than 50% of the T(2) progeny. Characterization of two leaf color mutants revealed the significance of this approach. We also document mutants from several categories and their corresponding full-length cDNAs. 相似文献

Current strategies for cDNA cloning are based on construction of cDNA libraries and colony screening. The process of obtaining a full-length cDNA clone can be highly time and labor intensive. Using the human actin gene as a model target cDNA, we have developed an RNA-capture method for rapid cloning of full-length cDNAs. The approach involves the capture of mRNA with expressed sequence tag (EST)-derived, biotin labeled antisense "capture" primers and streptavidin-coated magnetic beads. Full-length cDNA is then synthesized from purified EST-specific mRNA and cloned directly into plasmid vectors. The results of using beta-actin-based capture primers on cytoplasmic RNA were the isolation of both beta- and gamma-actin cDNA clones. Of the 16 actin-specific cDNA clones analyzed, 15 (93%) were full-length. This approach for cloning full-length cDNAs from available ESTs or partial cDNA sequences will facilitate a more rapid and efficient characterization of gene structure and function. 相似文献

Molecular cloning and characterization of human atrial and ventricular myosin alkali light chain cDNA clones 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

We have isolated essentially full-length cDNA clones for atrial (ALC1) and ventricular (VLC1) myosin alkali light chains from a human fetal heart cDNA library. Comparison of overall nucleotide sequences of ALC1 and VLC1 cDNA clones has revealed that, while these two inserts show significant DNA sequence homology (78.4%) with respect to their coding regions, the 5'- and 3'-untranslated regions are highly divergent. Our statistical analysis suggests that human ALC1 and VLC1 diverged approximately 300 million years ago, during the time of separation of birds and mammals. RNA blot analysis shows that ALC1 mRNA is expressed in fetal ventricular and fetal skeletal muscles as well as fetal and adult atrial muscles and VLC1 mRNA is expressed in adult slow skeletal muscle as well as fetal and adult ventricular muscles. Southern blot analysis indicates that each protein is encoded by a single gene. Finally, we show that VLC1 mRNA is induced in pressure-overloaded human atrium. 相似文献

The nuclear yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) system is the most widely used technology for detecting interactions between proteins. A common approach is to screen specific test proteins (baits) against large compilations of randomly cloned proteins (prey libraries). For eukaryotic organisms, libraries have traditionally been generated using messenger RNA (mRNA) extracted from various tissues and cells. Here we present a library construction strategy made possible by ongoing public efforts to establish collections of full-length protein encoding clones. Our approach generates libraries that are essentially normalized and contain both randomly fragmented as well as full-length inserts. We refer to this type of protein-coding clone-derived library as random and full-length (RAFL) Y2H library. The library described here is based on clones from the Mammalian Gene Collection, but our strategy is compatible with the use of any protein-coding clone collection from any organism in any vector and does not require inserts to be devoid of untranslated regions. We tested our prototype human RAFL library against a set of baits that had previously been searched against multiple cDNA libraries. These Y2H searches yielded a combination of novel as well as expected interactions, indicating that the RAFL library constitutes a valuable complement to Y2H cDNA libraries. 相似文献

Double-stranded DNA complementary to the partially purified mRNA prepared from 3-methylcholanthrene (MC)-treated rat liver was constructed and cloned in Escherichia coli. Twenty clones were verified to carry a complementary DNA (cDNA) insert coding for MC-inducible cytochrome P-450 by positive hybridization translation assay and immunochemical assay with anti-cytochrome P-450 antibody. The identified cDNA clones were divided into at least two groups on the basis of comparison of restriction maps of the cDNA inserts. A clone pAU157 whose cDNA insert was approximately 2.7 kb in length contained nearly full-length mRNA information for cytochrome P-450MC or P-450c, which is the major form of MC-inducible cytochrome P-450. Other cDNA clones pTZ286-pTZ330 contained the 1.2 kb sequence complementary to cytochrome P-450d mRNA. RNA blot analysis revealed that pAU157 and pTZ286-pTZ330 cDNA clones were derived from 22S and 18S mRNAs, respectively, both of which were induced in rat liver by MC treatment. Sequence analysis revealed that there were closely homologous sequence regions in pAU157 and pTZ286-pTZ330 cDNA inserts and most of the homologous sequences were localized in two limited coding regions of the two cytochrome P-450 species. pAU157 encoded the total amino acid sequence of cytochrome P-450MC or P-450c and pTZ286-pTZ330 coded for the C-terminal 368 amino acid residues of cytochrome P-450d. Two highly homologous regions were found in the amino acid sequences of these cytochrome P-450 species. 相似文献

An improved procedure for isolating lambda DNA and screening lambda gt10 or lambda gt11 libraries is described. Recombinant lambda gt11 bacteriophage particles (150,000) were amplified on three agarose plates (50,000 per plate) with Escherichia coli Y1090 as plating bacteria. After confluent lysis, recombinant bacteriophage was extracted with SM buffer. Bacterial debris was removed by centrifugation. A small aliquot of amplified lambda gt11 bacteriophage was kept to rescreen the bacteriophage, should a large or full-length clone be found to be present, after analysis of the size of the cDNA inserts. The major portion of the bacteriophage particles was purified by treatment with equilibrated DEAE-cellulose, pH 7.5. Purified phage particles were precipitated with polyethylene glycol from the DEAE supernatant and extracted with phenol, phenol-chloroform, and chloroform. Such lambda gt11 DNA was readily digested with EcoRI. Liberated insert cDNA was separated on 1.2% agarose gels, transferred onto a nylon membrane, and hybridized with an alkaline phosphatase cDNA probe in an iterative procedure that allows isolation of the largest cDNA clones present in the library. We have used this procedure to isolate a full-length alkaline phosphatase cDNA. The method is quick, reliable, and less costly than conventional procedures for the isolation of full-length cDNAs. 相似文献

We have isolated nearly full-length cDNA clones of terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase (TdT) from calf thymus and mouse lymphoma cDNA libraries. The libraries were constructed using the pcD vector system which permits the expression of cDNA inserts in mammalian cells. The bovine TdT cDNA clone contains an open reading frame coding for 520 amino acids, Mr 59,678. The mouse TdT cDNA clone contains an open reading frame of 1,587 bp, whose translated cDNA encodes a 60,004 dalton protein. The mouse TdT cDNA clone contains 60 bp in the 3' end region of the coding sequence not found in the bovine TdT cDNA sequence, otherwise, the clones share about 80% homology. A possible nuclear-localization-sequence (Pro-Arg-Lys-Lys-Arg-Pro-Arg) was conserved in the N-terminal region in the mouse and bovine cDNA clones. Bovine and mouse cDNAs transfected into COS7 monkey fibroblasts directed the synthesis of enzymatically active protein of Mr 60,000 which was detected immunologically using polyclonal rabbit antibody against bovine TdT. Bovine TdT expressed in COS7 cells by nearly full-length cDNA clone was localized in the nucleus and the translational product of pOK103 lacking the nuclear-localization-sequence was localized in the cytoplasm. 相似文献

Isolation and characterization of expressible cDNA clones for mouse Thy-1: a model system for cDNA expression of cell surface proteins 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

By using the mouse Thy-1 gene as a model, we have developed a procedure to distinguish functional vs nonfunctional cDNA of lymphocyte surface antigens by transfecting COS-7 monkey cells and testing for expression of cell surface products encoded by the cDNA inserts. By cross-hybridization with a mouse Thy-1 probe, we isolated cDNA clones from a pcD-expression library prepared from mRNA of C5 cells. Two functional clones were distinguished from the remainder by detection of Thy-1.2 on the surface of 0.5% of COS-7 cells transiently transfected by the DEAE-Dextran method. Inclusion of chloroquine in the transfection procedure greatly facilitated the detection of functional cDNA by raising the percentage of expressing cells to 30%. Nucleotide sequencing of one functional cDNA, about 1700 bp long, confirmed that the gene encodes a protein whose sequence agrees with the published Thy-1.2 protein sequence with the additional 31 amino acids attached at the COOH-terminus. A 75 bp 5' untranslated region preceding the coding region contains 50 bp not found in the genomic clones. Comparison indicates that one or more introns are present in the 5' untranslated region, but are not found in the mature mRNA. The first exon may be separated by at least 1 kb intron from the initiation codon. Because the expressible clones are approximately the size of the mRNA seen on Northern blots, we believe that these clones are nearly full-length cDNA. Dilution experiments indicate that this strategy should also be useful for identifying functional cDNA clones for cell surface proteins solely on the basis of their expression in mammalian cells. 相似文献

In this report, we describe a simple, rapid, efficient and inexpensive strategy for sequencing inserted DNAs from clones of
cDNA or gDNA libraries. This strategy uses PCR products directly amplified from transformed bacterial colonies, with universal
primers within the vector. The method can be applied for sequencing cDNA or gDNA libraries with up to 4 ∼ 5 kb insert sizes,
without overnight liquid culture or plasmid DNA preparation steps. We successfully used this method to analyze clones from
full-length, enriched cDNA libraries. Although simple, following this strategy will significantly help researchers to avoid
unnecessary steps in the analysis of a cDNA library. 相似文献
