A bidirectional expression vector containing both the 11KD late promoter (p11) and the presumptive 25KD early promoter (p25) was constructed. These bidirectional vectors have been applied to the expression of hepatitis B surface antigen by using one of the promoters for beta-galactosidase as the marker gene and the other one for hepatitis B surface antigen as the target gene. 相似文献

A DNA sequence upstream from the polyhedrin gene of baculovirus Autographa californica nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) was found to activate strongly the expression of full or minimal promoters derived from AcMNPV and other sources. Promoters tested included the minimal CMV (CMVm) promoter from human cytomegalovirus, the full heat shock 70 promoter from Drosophila, and the minimal p35 promoter from baculovirus. Deletion and mutagenesis analyses showed that this functional polyhedrin upstream (pu) activator sequence contains three open reading frames (ORFs), ORF4, ORF5, and lef2. In plasmid transfection assays, the pu sequence was able to confer high level luciferase expression driven by all of these full or minimal promoters in insect Sf21 cells. A known baculovirus enhancer, the homologous region (hr) of AcMNPV, further enhanced the expression of these promoters. Experiments showed that although multiple hr sequences function in an additive manner, pu and hr together function synergistically, resulting in as much as 18,000-fold promoter activation. Furthermore, a modified CMVm promoter containing pu and/or hr was inserted into the baculovirus genome to drive the luciferase coding region. The CMVm promoter expressed luciferase much earlier, and although it expressed a bit less than did the p10 promoter, the CMVm promoter gave rise to greater luciferase activity. Therefore, we have uncovered a cryptic viral sequence capable of activating a diverse group of promoters. Finally, these experiments demonstrate that synthetic sequences containing pu, hr, and different full or minimal promoters can generate a set of essentially unlimited novel promoters for weak to very strong expression of foreign proteins using baculovirus. 相似文献

Several repetitive sequence elements from diverse species share extensive sequence homology with tRNA molecules. Analysis of the tRNA-like sequences within these elements suggest that they have originated from authentic tRNA sequences. Elements containing tRNA-like sequences can be divided into three distinct groups whose members share extensive sequence homology, have similar sequence organization and have unique species distribution. We suggest that these three groups represent independent examples of retroposon families that have originated from tRNAs. 相似文献

Following a pathogenic attack, plants are able to mount a defense response with the coordinated activation of a battery of defense-related genes. In this study we have characterized the mode of expression of the P69B and P69C genes from tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.), which encodes two closely related subtilisin-like proteases associated with the defense response. We have compared the mode of gene regulation in heterologous transgenic Arabidopsis plants harboring promoter-beta-glucuronidase (GUS) and promoter-luciferase (LUC) gene fusions for these two genes. These studies revealed that the P69B and P69C promoters are induced by salicylic acid as well as during the course of both a compatible and an incompatible interaction with Pseudomonas syringae. Furthermore, P69B and P69C expression takes place in both the local and the distal (noninoculated) leaves upon inoculation with bacteria but following different and unique tissue-specific patterns of expression that are also different to that described for most other classical PR genes. Also, we report that luciferin, the substrate for the reporter luciferase (LUC) gene, is able to activate expression of PR genes, and this may pose a problem when using this gene reporter system in studies related to plant defense. 相似文献
