A novel gene——samfR involved in early stage of Streptomyces ansochromogenes differentiation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A 4.6 kb DNA fragment was cloned from the DNA library of Streptomyces ansochromogenes using a partial DNA fragment located in the downstream of promoter-P_(TH4) as probe. The experiments revealed that this DNA fragment consists of saw D gene and a 1.4 kb Pvu Ⅱ fragment which can accelerate mycelium formation of S. ansochromogerms. The nucleofide sequence of 1.4 kb DNA fragment was determined and analysed; the result indicated that the fragment contains one complete open reading frame (ORF) which encodes a protein with 213 amino acids, and this gene was desiguated as samfR. The deduced protein has 36% amino acid identities and 52% amino acid similarities in comparison with that encoded by hppR gene, which is involved in the regulation of catabolism for 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl) propionate (3HPP) in Rhodococcus globerulus. The function of samfR gene was studied using strategy of gene disruption, and the resulting samfR mutant failed to form aerial hyphae and spores, its development and differentiation stopped 相似文献

Study on gene sensor based on primer extension 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Based on the fact that the resonant frequency of a piezoelectric crystal is the function of its surface deposit, and that the primer extends after it hybridizes with the template, the primer extension gene sensor technique was developed. The prominent feature of the technique is that fast and sensitive frequency signals are used as the monitoring system of gene hybridization and primer strand extension. Results show that this technique may be used in homologous analysis of nucleic acid, trace DNA detection, and determining the integration of DNA. It may also be used for isolation of target gene, gene mutation analysis, and predicting the location of a gene in its genome. 相似文献

PCR方法制备地高辛标记DNA探针检测中国对虾非包涵体型杆状病毒 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
A pair of primers created from information of PmNOBⅢ genome DNA Sal I fragment produced a 355bp band by using Penaeus chinensis non occluded baculovirus (PcNOBV),the WSBV isolate from P.hinensis in mainland China,as the DNA template.The specific PCR product was cloned,sequenced and labeled with digoxigenin (DIG)DNA labeling kit(Boehringer Mannheim).The DIG labeled fragment was tested by dot blot hybridization for sensitivity and specificity with purified PcNOBV nucleocapsid,PcNOBV infected shrimp tissues and healthy shrimp tissues.The detection limit of the DNA probe is 6.8pg of purified PcNOBV DNA.No hybridization signals were observed using DNA from healthy shrimp as template.Healthy P.chinensis,artificially infected P.chinensis and pond reared adult P.chinensis were screened for PcNOBV infection by both PCR and the hybridization assay.The results showed a good relationship between PCR and the hybridization assay.These findings demonstrate that the DIG labeled probe can be used as a sensitive,specific and cost effective reagent for detection of PcNOBV. 相似文献

The fidelity of DNA synthesis by eukaryotic replicative and translesion synthesis polymerases 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
In their seminal publication describing the structure of the DNA double helix , Watson and Crick wrote what may be one of the greatest understatements in the scientific literature, namely that "It has not escaped our notice that the specific pairing we have postulated immediately suggests a possible copying mechanism for the genetic material." Half a century later, we more fully appreciate what a huge challenge it is to replicate six billion nucleotides with the accuracy needed to stably maintain the human genome over many generations. This challenge is perhaps greater than was realized 50 years ago, because subsequent studies have revealed that the genome can be destabilized not only by environmental stresses that generate a large number and variety of potentially cytotoxic and mutagenic lesions in DNA but also by various sequence motifs of normal DNA that present challenges to replication. Towards a better understanding of the many determinants of genome stability, this chapter reviews the fidelity with which undamaged and damaged DNA is copied, with a focus on the eukaryotic B- and Y-family DNA polymerases, and considers how this fidelity is achieved. 相似文献

The downstream gene controlled by promoter--PTH4 which is related to Streptomycesdifferentiation was cloned, and its sequence was determined by the dideoxy chain termination method. The results indicated that the 1597 bp of DNA fragment conferred a complete open reading frame (ORF). In searches of databases, the deduced product of the ORF was not homologous with any known proteins; it may be a new protein. The function of the gene was studied using the strategy of gene disruption; the actinorhodin could not be produced when this gene was disrupted. Therefore, this gene may be related to actinorhodin biosynthesis in Streptomyces coelicolor, and the result also shows that this gene may play a role in multiple level regulation of differentiation genes in Streptomyces. 相似文献

DNA barcoding is a powerful approach for characterizing species of organisms, especially those with almost identical morphological features, thereby helping to to establish phylogenetic relationships and reveal evolutionary histories. In this study, we chose a 648-bp segment of the mitochondrial gene, cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COI), as a standard barcode region to establish phylogenetic relationships among brine shrimp (Artemia) species from major habitats around the world and further focused on the biodiversity of Artemia species in China, especially in the Tibetan Plateau. Samples from five major salt lakes of the Tibetan Plateau located at altitudes over 4,000 m showed clear differences from other Artemia populations in China. We also observed two consistent amino acid changes, 153A/V and 183L/F, in the COI gene between the high and low altitude species in China. Moreover, indels in the COI sequence were identified in cyst and adult samples unique to the Co Qen population from the Tibetan Plateau, demonstrating the need for additional investigations of the mitochondrial genome among Tibetan Artemia populations. 相似文献

The random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) molecular marker technique was used to determine the sex of Calamus simplicifolius C. F. Wei In the present study, DNA samples were extracted individually from 10 male and 10 female plants. After a total of 1 040 decamer primers had been tested, an approximate 500-bp male-specific DNA fragment was generated with the S 1443 primer. It is feasible to identify sex at the early stages of plant life, which is beneficial for improving breeding programs of this dioecious species. In addition, we have obtained a proper RAPD protocol that is useful for other species of rattan. 相似文献

Jasmonate(JA) is an important phytohormone regulating growth, development, and environmental response in plants, particularly defense response against herbivorous insects. Recently, completion of the draft genome of the mulberry(Morus notabilis) in conjunction with genome sequencing of silkworm(Bombyx mori) provides an opportunity to study this unique plant‐herbivore interaction. Here, we identified genes involved in JA biosynthetic and signaling pathways in the genome of mulberry for the first time, with the majority of samples showing a tissue‐biased expression pattern. The analysis of the representative genes 12‐oxophytodienoic acid reductase(OPRs) and jasmonate ZIM‐domain(JAZs) was performed and the results indicated that the mulberry genome contains a relatively small number of JA biosynthetic and signaling pathway genes. A gene encoding animportant repressor, MnNINJA, was identified as an alternative splicing variant lacking an ethylene‐responsive element binding factor‐associated amphiphilic repression motif. Having this fundamental information will facilitate future functional study of JA‐related genes pertaining to mulberry‐silkworm interactions. 相似文献

Abstract: This paper reports the methods of construction of gene-targeting vector for transformation of silkworm, Bombyx mori L. The genomic DNA was isolated from the posterior silk gland of the fifth-instar silkworm larvae. The short fragment (0.5 kb) and long fragment (5 kb) of the fibroin light-chain gene were obtained by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis with special primers and genome DNA as templates and then recombined with pBlueselect vector into pBs-FS-FL. The target green flourescent protein (GFP) gene, was derived from pGEP-1 vector and recombined with pUC19 vector into pUCG vector. GFP was recovered after cutting with restriction endonucleases, Pst I and Bam HI. Finally, GFP was recombined with pBs-FS-FL into gene-targeting vector, pBs-FS-GFP-FL. 相似文献

Bmdsx is a sex-determining gene in the silkworm and is alternatively spliced in males and females. CE1 is a splicing silencer element responsible for the sex-specific splicing of Bmdsx. To identify sex-specific factors implicated in the sex-specific splicing of Bmdsx, we performed RNA affinity chromatography using CE1 RNA as a ligand. We have identified BmIMP, a Bombyx homolog of IGF-II mRNA binding protein (IMP), as a male-specific factor that specifically binds to CE1. The gene encoding BmIMP is localized on the Z chromosome and is male-specifically expressed in various tissues. Antisense inhibition of BmIMP expression increased female-specific splicing of Bmdsx pre-mRNA. Coimmunoprecipitation and glutathione S-transferase (GST) pulldown analyses demonstrated that BmIMP physically interacts with BmPSI, which has been identified as a factor implicated in the sex-specific splicing of Bmdsx, through the KH domains of BmIMP. The functional consequence of this interaction was examined using RNA mobility shift analysis. BmIMP increased BmPSI-CE1 RNA binding activity by decreasing the rate of BmPSI dissociation from CE1 RNA. Truncation analysis of BmIMP suggested that the KH domains are responsible for enhancing BmPSI-CE1 RNA binding activity. These results suggest that BmIMP may enhance the male-specific splicing of Bmdsx pre-mRNA by increasing RNA binding activity of BmPSI. 相似文献

爪哇根结线虫Mi-毒性和无毒近等基因系的制备及其遗传变异的初步分析 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
爪哇根结线虫是以孤雌生殖方式繁殖的农作物重要病原物,通过将爪哇根结线虫-无毒群体在抗病番茄品种Momotaro上连续选择19代,获得了一对针对抗性基因Mi的毒性和无毒近等基因系,用102种引物对该近等基因系进行随机扩增多态性DNA(RAPD)分析显示,除一种引物外两者的RAPD带谱基本一致,证实了该毒性和无毒群体的基因组组成十分近似,对一种引物扩增出的一个无毒群体特异性的RAPD片段进行了克隆,Southern杂交结果提示该多态性片段及其同源序列在毒性选择过程中被从毒性线虫的基因组中删除,但DNA序列分析和数据库检索表明,该片段与迄今发表的核酸序列均不存在显著的同源性,因此尚无法预测其潜在的功能性,爪哇根结线虫Mi-毒性和无毒近等基因系的制备为进一步鉴定和分离该线虫毒性相关基因打下了坚实的基础。 相似文献

A comparative analysis of the total cellular DNA in certain parthenogenetic specimens of the silkworm (Bombyx mori), produced from the females of the parthenogenetic strains by two types of parthenogenesis, has been performed through the application of the DNA fingerprinting method based on M13 phage DNA as a hybridization probe. It has been shown that parental specimens and their genetically identical off-springs produced through ameiotic parthenogenesis have identical patterns of hybridization with the hypervariable DNA fragments. The off-springs produced through the meiotic type of parthenogenesis have individual-specific patterns of hybridization, revealing a high level of polymorphism of individual genotypes. The results obtained testify to the effectiveness and reliability of this promising method for identification of genotypic variability, marking and genomic characterization of parthenogenetic clones in the silkworm. 相似文献

Molecular detection methods were developed to aid in the diagnosis of a rickettsia-like bacterium (RLB) which caused severe mortalities of farm-raised Penaeus monodon in Madagascar. Using primers derived from the 16S rRNA gene of bacteria, a PCR assay was optimized to amplify this region of the genome of the RLB, using extracted DNA from infected P. monodon tissue as the template. The resulting amplified PCR product was sequenced and 2 novel primers were selected from the variable region of the gene. These primers amplified a 532 bp fragment of DNA originating from the rickettsia-infected samples. The PCR assay was optimized and tested on DNA extracted from specific pathogen-free (SPF) P. vannamei tissue and several other strains of bacteria. The PCR assay with the rickettsia-specific primers was specific for this RLB and did not amplify the other DNA samples tested. The 532 bp PCR-amplified fragment was labeled with digoxigenin (DIG) for in situ hybridization assays. This probe was tested on SPF, RLB and bacteria-infected shrimp specimens preserved in Davidson's fixative. The probe was specific for both natural and experimental rickettsial infections. Hybridization with this probe required a stringent temperature of 65 degrees C, otherwise cross-reactivity was observed with other types of bacteria. 相似文献

In insects, the sex is determined completely by genetic mechanisms, which at least in somatic tissues, are cell autonomous. The sex of the silkworm, Bombyx mori, is strongly controlled by the presence of the W chromosome. Genetic studies using translocations and deletions of W suggested that a presumptive feminizing gene (Fem) is located in a limited region of the W chromosome. Recent genomic studies revealed a small number of potential candidates for the Fem gene in this region. In addition, a Bombyx homologue of the Drosophila sex determining gene doublesex has been identified on an autosome and analyzed. Whereas the Drosophila doublesex gene is regulated by activation of splicing in females, the Bombyx doublesex gene (Bmdsx) encodes female- and male-specific mRNAs regulated via male-specific repression of splicing. The vitellogenin gene (Vg) is a target of the BmDSX protein, which directly binds to the Vg promoter. Furthermore, as ectopic expression of the male-type Bmdsx induces male-like transformation of the sexual organs, BmDSX may control sex-specific morphological characteristics in Bombyx. This suggests that although upstream events in Drosophila and Bombyx sex determination differ, similarities between the two species do exist in downstream genetic control of sex determination. 相似文献
