The induction of gene mutations and chromosome aberrations by the plasmid pEJ6.6 carrying the activated c-Ha-ras-1 oncogene from human bladder carcinoma was studied in cultured Chinese hamster cells. Both an increase in the frequency of gene mutations to 6-mercaptopurine resistance and of chromosome aberrations was observed after pEJ6.6 treatment as compared to control series (pBR322). Thus the results of experiments carried out show that the pEJ6.6 plasmid possesses a mutagenic activity. 相似文献

A plasmid carrying a DNA fragment of hepatitis B virus, coding for the pre-S2 and the entire S region of the surface antigen (HBsAg), placed under the control of the promoter of the human 70 kDa heat shock protein gene (hsp70) was introduced into Line 6, a recombinant cell line that was selectedfromNIH-3T3 cellspreviously transfected with a similar construct coding for the human growth hormone cDNA gene (chGH) and with the plasmid pEJ carrying the Ha-rasEJ activated cellular oncogene. The resulting cell line, EMS8, expressed: (1) hsp70/HBsAg and hsp70/hGH hybrid genes, (2) the human Ha-rasEJ oncogene, and (3) the neomycin resistance gene, the two last plasmid markers being used for cell selection. EMS8 cells were able to carry outpost-translational modifications of the middle M and the major S envelope proteins of HBV, such as assembly and glycosylation. Accordingly, the cells synthesized and secreted both free and glycosylated M and S viralproteins, and the human growth hormone protein. In addition concomitant expression of HBsAg and hGH proteins as well as their mRNA were detected in EMS8 cells at least up to 72 hr after heat induction instead of 24 hr in the case of hGH in line 6 cells. 相似文献

Infection of mouse embryos at 8 days of gestation with a replication-defective retrovirus carrying the human c-Ha-ras-1 oncogene led to efficient and rapid induction of hyperplastic lesions. Twenty-four percent of viable off-spring developed abnormal growths after infection with purified virus. The lesions contained a single integrated provirus and produced viral RNA and the Ha-ras oncogene product (p21). The latency period between the time of infection and appearance of the lesions suggested that secondary alterations in addition to activated ras were necessary for neoplasms to develop. The earliest and most abundant growths were cutaneous and appeared from 4 to 36 weeks of age, with a median of 4 weeks of age. A number of subcutaneous lesions also developed over the same time span but at a median of 18 weeks of age. The rapid development of cutaneous lesions in response to transduction of the ras oncogene contrasts with other studies in which adult skin required secondary treatment with promoters prior to ras induction of epithelial hyperplasia. These results demonstrate that infection of midgestation mouse embryos allows rapid analysis of oncogene potency in skin. 相似文献

Inhibition of gap-junctional intercellular communication between epithelial cells transformed by the activated H-ras-1 oncogene 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In order to study the effects of an activated H-ras-1 oncogene on gap-junctional intercellular communication, we introduced the EJ/T24 H-ras-1 oncogene into cells of the epithelial Clone 9-3 cell line. Gap-junctional intercellular communication was significantly reduced in H-ras-1-transformed Clone 9-3 derivatives; this result shows that transformation by the activated H-ras-1 oncogene can inhibit gap-junctional intercellular communication. We postulate that the activated H-ras-1 oncogene product could mediate this effect through a change in the phosphorylation of the major gap-junction protein. 相似文献

The mutagenic and carcinogenic effect of two EcoRI-fragments of bovine adenovirus type 3 (BAV-3) DNA inserted into pBR325 has been studied. The C fragment (located between 3,6 and 19,7 map units) contains the viral oncogene, the C fragment (between 44,3 and 63,7 map units) displays no transforming activity. It has been established that oncogene BAV-3 statistically true increases the yield of mutants resistant to 6-mercaptopurine (6MP) in Chinese hamster cells. The C fragment, pBR325 without viral sequences and DNA fragments of different molecular weights from normal Syrian hamster cells have no mutagenic effect. The control over tumor formation in syngenic mice after injection of C3H10T 1/2 and D. C fragments and pBR325 treatment exposed a parallelism between the mutagenic and transforming effect. The study of the combined effect of viral DNA fragments and the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) which increases the transforming activity of different carcinogens, shows that the promoter increases the frequency of mutants after viral oncogene treatment and does not induce mutagenic activity of those types of DNA which are unable to transform the cells. 相似文献

Carcinogens with diverse mutagenic activities initiate neoplastic guinea pig cells that acquire the same N-ras point mutation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
N-ras has been identified by molecular cloning and DNA sequence analysis as the activated oncogene in carcinogen-induced guinea pig transformation. The deduced guinea pig amino acid sequence differs from that of human and mouse by 1 and 4 residues, respectively; the mismatches were in the C-terminal half of the fourth exon. The activated N-ras clone has an AT to TA transversion at the third position of codon 61 which results in the insertion of histidine instead of glutamine. The same activated N-ras gene with the identical mutation was found in all lines regardless of initiating carcinogen (aromatic aryl hydrocarbons or alkylating agents). These results suggest that the mutational event was independent of the mutagenic activity of the initiating carcinogen. 相似文献

本文将克隆于pBR322的人胃癌Ha-ras基因(PGC6.6)和带有上游区片段的Ha-ras基因(PGC9.1)的CC~*GG位点甲基化后,转化NIH3T3细胞。发现pGC6.6甲基化与非甲基化对转化效率无明显影响,而pGC9.1甲基化后转化效率明显低于非甲基化pGC9.1者,甲基化/非甲基化pGC9.1的转化效率均明显高于甲基化/非甲基化pGC6.6者。本文又对人胃癌组织及癌旁组织DNA中Ha-ras基因的HpaⅡ、Msp Ⅰ限制性内切酶图谱作了比较,并同对比较了癌及癌旁组织中Ha-ras基因的mRNA水平,发现一例病人癌组织中Ha-ras基因的CC~*GG位点甲基化程度较癌旁组织中者低,且该例中Ha-ras基因表达水平在癌组织中明显地高。这些结果,结合我们以前的研究表明:在人胃Ha-ras癌基因上游区可能存在一增强子样作用的区域,对Ha-ras基因起调控作用。该上游区CC~*GG位点的甲基化能降低这种调控作用。仅Ha-ras结构基因的CC~*GG位点甲基化不足以明显影响其转化活性。在体内,Ha-ras基因甲基化水平降低可能与其达表水平升高以至诱发癌症有关。 相似文献

We have inserted a genomic clone of the human EJ bladder oncogene into a murine retrovirus shuttle vector. Cotransfection of this shuttle vector DNA containing the activated ras oncogene with molecularly cloned Moloney murine leukemia virus into NIH/3T3 cells was able to rescue a replicating and transforming retrovirus. The viral DNA from infected cells was excised by fusion to mouse COP-5 cells and recloned into Escherichia coli as plasmid DNA. Analysis of the recloned plasmids by size, restriction enzyme mapping, and DNA sequence indicated that approximately 5% of the recloned plasmids contained the intronless EJ ras oncogene. 相似文献

以前的工作曾用人胃癌基因Ha-ras转化了大鼠全胚细胞系Ratl细胞,得到转化细胞Rat3-3。克隆了Ha-ras癌基因6.6kb及其上游区2.5kb DNA片段,并发现2.5kb有Alu重复顺序,说明这个片段是来源于人胃癌细胞,虽族观察到p21蛋白编码12位点突变,我们又发现转化的Rat3-3细胞的Ha-ras mRNA水平比未转化的Rat1高大约五倍;通过DNase I超敏感实验证明只有转化细胞核中的Ha-ras基因对DNaseI敏感,1μg/mL的DNaseI就有明显的降解,而未转化细胞Rat1细胞核的Ha-ras基因在15μg/mL的DNaseI中也未发现有任何降解;另外还发现转化细胞核有一种能为Ha-ras基因上游区2.5kb特异结合的核蛋白,分子量大约35kD,此核蛋白不能与6.6kb Ha-ras基因本身结合,在未转化细胞中未发现此蛋白。从这些结果推测,癌基因Ha-ras的活化,除了点突变外,还可能存在另一条活化途径,即它的上游区可能有类似增强子的调控区。 相似文献

DNA sequence polymorphisms have been used to determine the linear order and recombinational distances separating the Harvey ras 1 oncogene (c-Ha-ras-1), beta-globin, insulin, and parathyroid hormone genes on the short arm of human chromosome 11. Our results indicate that c-Ha-ras-1 is closely linked to both the beta-globin locus (theta = .08 [8 centimorgans], lod score = 5.11) and the insulin locus (theta = .04 [4 centimorgans], lod score = 3.31). Furthermore, the probable order of these loci on chromosome 11p is centromere-parathyroid hormone-beta globin-c-Ha-ras-1-insulin. 相似文献

A purified and dried DNA of plasmid pKO482 (galK+) is 10 times more resistant to the inactivating action of 60Co-gamma-rays than that of lambda phage. gamma-Irradiation of the plasmid DNA induces forward mutations of galK, the frequency of which increases linearly with the dose. The efficiency of the mutagenic action of gamma-rays on the plasmid galK locus is 10(-12) per 1 rad and per 1 base pair. The mutagenic effect of gamma-radiation but slightly depends upon bacterial recA+ gene and upon the SOS-repair system induced by UV-irradiation of the recipient cells. It is assumed that the premutational lesions induced in the purified DNA by the direct effect of gamma-radiation are fixed into mutations by misreplication. 相似文献

Integration of DNA of a temperature-sensitive SV40 mutant (tsA239) into the cell genome was studied. The viral A gene (the oncogene) encodes the tumour T antigen which is ts in the mutant and is devoid of mutagenic and transforming activity under non-permissive conditions (40 degrees C). Clones of Chinese hamster cells infected by tsA239 mutant were analysed. Those infected by wild-type SV40 served as controls. As shown by dot-hybridization, SV40 DNA was detected in cells of 14 out of 18 clones infected by tsA mutant and incubated at 40.5 degrees C, and in all 20 clones infected by tsA mutant and incubated under permissive conditions (33 degrees C), the difference between the two groups being insignificant (p greater than 0.05). By means of blot-hybridization it was established that viral DNA was integrated into the cell genome of all 12 clones analysed, belonging to the three experimental series: infection by tsA mutant, incubation at 40.5 and 33 degrees C, infection by wt SV40, incubation at 40.5 degrees C. The number of integration sites ranged from one to four in different clones. Integration of SV40 DNA in tandems was observed. The data presented allow to conclude that integration per se does not play a crucial role in determining the mutagenic and transforming effect of the virus. Obviously, what matters is the activity of viral oncogene product - the T antigen. 相似文献

Enterococcus faecalis EJ97 produces a cationic bacteriocin (enterocin EJ97) of low molecular mass (5,327.7 Da). The complete amino acid sequence of enterocin EJ97 was elucidated after automated microsequencing of oligopeptides generated by endoproteinase GluC digestion and cyanogen bromide treatment. Transfer of the 60-kb conjugative plasmid pEJ97 from the bacteriocinogenic strain E. faecalis EJ97 to E. faecalis OG1X conferred bacteriocin production and resistance on the recipient. The genetic determinants of enterocin EJ97 were located in an 11.3-kb EcoRI-BglII DNA fragment of pEJ97. This region was cloned and sequenced. It contains the ej97A structural gene plus three open reading frames (ORFs) (ej97B, ej97C, and ej97D) and three putative ORFs transcribed in the opposite direction (orfA, orfB, and orfC). The gene ej97A translated as a 44-amino-acid residue mature protein lacking a leader peptide with no homology to other bacteriocins described so far. The product of ej97B (Ej97B) shows strong homology in its C-terminal domain to the superfamily of bacterial ATP-binding cassette transporters. The products of ej97C (Ej97C) and ej97D (Ej97D) could be proteins with 71 and 64 residues, respectively, of unknown functions and with no significant similarity to known proteins. There are two additional ORFs (ORF1 and ORF6) flanking the ej97 module, which have been identified as a transposon-like structure (tnp). ORF1 shows similarities to transposase of the Lactococcus lactis element ISS1 and is up to 50% identical to IS1216. This is flanked by two 18-bp inverted repeats (IRs) that are almost identical to those of ISS1 and IS1216. ORF6 (resEJ97) shows strong homology to the resolvase of plasmid pAM373 and up to 40 to 50% homology with the recombinase of several multiresistant plasmids and transposons from Staphylococcus aureus and E. faecalis. These data suggest that EJ97 could represent a new class of bacteriocins with a novel secretion mechanism and that the whole structure could be a composite transposon. Furthermore, two additional gene clusters were found: one cluster is probably related to the region responsible for the replication of plasmid pEJ97, and the second cluster is related to the sex pheromone response. These regions showed a high homology to the corresponding regions of the conjugative plasmids pAM373, pPD1, and pAD1 of E. faecalis, suggesting that they have a common origin. 相似文献

The Escherichia coli K-12 gene coding for the nucleoid-associated protein HNS was cloned together with 5.6 kb of downstream DNA in the vector pACYC184. The cloned DNA complemented a mutation in the osmZ locus of E. coli, which codes for HNS. However, the multicopy plasmid harboring the cloned sequence was found to be mutagenic and to produce at high frequency mutations that mapped to the E. coli cya gene, which codes for adenylate cyclase. Acquisition of the cya mutations was independent of RecA. These mutations were phenotypically suppressed by providing the cells with exogenous cyclic AMP and were complemented in trans by a plasmid carrying an active copy of the cya gene. A deletion analysis of the cloned sequences showed that DNA downstream of the gene coding for HNS was also required for the mutagenic effect of cya and had a role in regulating the expression of the osmZ-dependent proU locus. These sequences appear to contain at least two genetically active regions. 相似文献

Genes of resistance to some aminoglycoside antibiotics from plasmid R323 were transduced by bacteriophage P1 cml clr100 ts in Yersinia pestis. The resistance markers were capable of insertion into the chromosome or plasmid in the recipient cells causing the mutagenic effect. The results obtained suggest the transposon nature of plasmid fragment coding for gentamicin-kanamycin resistance. 相似文献

C3H 10T1/2 mouse fibroblasts were transfected with a plasmid vector composed of EJ, the mutated c-Ha-ras, and a metallothionein promotor that induced amplified ras expression when activated by culture in the presence of zinc. Experiments were conducted to compare the effect of induction on killing by activated natural killer (NK) cells, cytotoxic T lymphocytes, activated macrophages, and antibody plus complement. The only effector that recognized increased ras expression and exhibited high-inducible cytolysis was an activated NK cell. The effectors from spleen were poly I.C. boostable, Lyt-1.1 negative, NK 1.2 positive, and asialo GM1 positive. Spleen cells from T cell-deficient nude mice, but not NK-deficient beige mice, exhibited high levels of killing activity, and experiments with NK cell clones demonstrated that these lines were also highly cytolytic and killed Ha-ras transfectants in parallel to YAC. Transfection of the same fibroblast line with c-myc did not alter the level of activated NK sensitivity. Cold target competition experiments revealed that Ha-ras-transfected and non-transfected 10T1/2 fibroblasts competed equally for lysis of either YAC or Ha-ras transfectants. Rat-1 fibroblasts did not compete, but gained this capacity when transformed with the v-Ki-ras oncogene but not v-fps. These data suggest that Ha-ras acts in target cells at a post-binding step, whereas Ki-ras may affect expression of target-effector binding structures. The findings that activated NK cell lysis may be specifically influenced by ras expression support a role for NK cells in host surveillance against early neoplastic changes. 相似文献

To proceed the works on induced mutagenesis in plasmids, mutagenic effects of chemicals on the DNA of RSF2124 plasmid mediating colicine E1 biosynthesis and resistance to ampicillin, were studied. After exposure to mutagens, plasmid DNA was used to transform Escherichia coli C600 rk-mk-cells. The lethal effect was estimated from inactivation of the ampicillin marker, the mutagenic effect being measured by the appearance of mutants unable to synthesize colicine (Col-). The reaction of the plasmid DNA with a mutagen was stopped by 10-fold dilutions of aliquots in TEN buffer, followed by dialysis in 10 mH CaCl2 for 24 h. To select the most efficient mutagens for plasmid DNA, the compounds were predominantly tested which are known to be effective in other systems (transforming and transfecting DNA, microbial viruses). An a result, all chemicals tested by their activity were classified into 4 groups: inducing more than 100 fold increase (hydroxylamine, O-methylhydroxylamine); inducing 10 fold increase (UV-irradiation, lambda = 254 nm; W-mutagenesis, gamma-irradiation, nitrous acid, mitomycin C); inducing less than 10fold increase (indirect UV-mutagenesis, nitrous acid, beta-chloroethyldiethylamine hydrochloride, nitrosoguanidine); no mutagenic effect (acridine orange, ethyl methane sulfonate, sodium azide, O-beta-diethylhydroxylamine). 相似文献

Construction of plasmid cloning vehicles that promote gene expression from the bacteriophage lambda pL promoter. 总被引:54,自引:0,他引:54

Two multiple-copy, ColE1-type, plasmid cloning vehicles, pHUB2 and pHUB4, have been constructed that carry four different single restriction sites down-stream from the phage lambda promoter pL. The promoting activity of pL is switched off at low temperature in the presence of a cIts gene that specifies a temperature-sensitive repressor but could be activated by heat induction. cIts was located either on the host chromosome, or on a second plasmid pRK248 that is compatible with the cloning vehicle, or on the vehicle itself. Three different restriction fragments, each carrying the gene trpA of Salmonella typhimurium or Shigella dysenteriae, have been inserted into the EcoRI, BamHI and SalI sites, respectively, of these plasmids and pL dependent expression of the inserted gene in Escherichia coli was determined by measuring the enzymatic activity of the trpA gene product. Heat induction resulted in a level of expression of trpA corresponding to 1 to 6.6% of the total soluble cell protein as trpA protein. The level of trpA protein production depended on the particular insert and the plasmid used. 相似文献
