Using the cloning of part of the T-DNA of pTiC58 from Agrobacterium tumefaciens as an example, techniques are described which enable recombinant plasmids to be mapped and used as hybridization probes. In all cases the starting material is a colony of cells grown on an agar plate which is then subjected to lysis by lysozyme and Triton X-100 in volumes of the order of 300 microliters thus eliminating the need for handling and centrifuging liquid cultures under restrictive containment conditions. 相似文献

The new cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) line Yewei A and its maintainer line Yewei B, with better agronomic characteristics, have been developed from a mutant of V20B (a rice maintainer line) through transformation of genomic DNA of wild rice (Oryza minuta J. S. Presl. ex C. B. Presl.). Analysis of molecular markers, DNA sequences, and Southern blot revealed that high DNA polymorphism exists between the mutant and its receptor, indicating that the special DNA fragment from O. minuta may be integrated into the genome of Yewei B. Therefore, transformation of genomic DNA from distant relatives to the plant of a target receptor may open an avenue for creating a new rice germplasm. 相似文献

The 5′-OH end of DNA created upon alkaline hydrolysis of the RNA-linked nascent DNA pieces can be labeled with [γ-32P]ATP using T4 polynucleotide kinase. However, it is difficult to use this method for the assay of these molecules in the presence of RNA-free DNA pieces because of the exchange reaction between the γ-phosphate of ATP and the 5′-phosphate of DNA catalyzed by the kinase. This difficulty can be circumvented by performing the polynucleotide kinase reaction at 0°C, where little exchange reaction occurs. Using these conditions, Aexl, a mutant defective in the 5′ → 3′ exonuclease activity of DNA polymerase I, is shown to contain several times as many RNA-linked DNA pieces as the wild type. 相似文献

A rare phenomenon of the occurrence of novel non-parental chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) variants in natural sexual interspecific hybrids between Populus deltoides var deltoides and P. nigra, P. x canadensis is described. Restriction fragment variation of cpDNA in 17 P. x canadensis cultivars was examined and compared with that of representative samples of P. deltoides and P. nigra using 83 combinations of 16 restriction enzymes and six Petunia hybrida cpDNA probes. Twelve cultivars had one to five novel non-parental cpDNA fragments in the chloroplast genome region homologous to the 9.0-kb PstI cpDNA fragment of Petunia from the large single-copy region. 相似文献

A wild-type (WT) strain of the moss Physcomitrella patens (Hedw.) B.S.G., two mutants derived from it (PC22 and P24), and a somatic hybrid, PC22(+)P24, were analysed. Staining of metaphases revealed 54±2 chromosomes in the somatic hybrid and 27 chromosomes in the wild type and the two mutants. Using flow cytometry (FCM), DNA contents were calculated to be 0.6 pg (WT, PC22), 1.2 pg (P24), and 1.6 pg (PC22(+)P24) per nucleus, respectively. Southern hybridization provided evidence for at least one family of highly repetitive DNA and, furthermore, revealed different amounts of repetitive DNA in the four genotypes. However, these sequences cannot account for the 100% increase in the nuclear DNA amount in mutant P24, relative to wild type. In FCM analyses every moss geno-type generated just one single peak of fluorescence, indicating an arrest in the cell cycle during the daytime. Thermal denaturation of wild-type DNA revealed a G+C content of 34.6% for total DNA and 38.6% for plastid DNA. A cDNA library of 1.2 × 106 independent clones was established, from which sequences homologous to cab and rbcS, respectively, were isolated. These genes show significant homologies to those of higher plants, and, likewise, comprise multigene families. No restriction fragment length polymorphisms could be detected between the four moss genotypes using these cDNA probes.This article is based in part on doctoral studies of M.F. and MW at the University of Hamburg, Faculty of Biology 相似文献

Over the past few years, technological advances in automated DNA sequencing have had a profound effect on the nature of DNA sequencing laboratories. To characterize the changes occurring within DNA sequencing facilities, the DNA Sequencing Research Group conducted three previous studies, in 1998, 2000, and 2003. A new general survey has been designed and conducted by the DSRG to capture the current status of DNA sequencing facilities in all sectors. Included were questions regarding facility administration, pricing, instrumentation, technology, protocols, and operation. The results of the survey are presented here, accompanied by comparisons to the previous surveys. These comparisons formed a basis for the discussion of trends within the facilities in response to the dynamics of a changing technology. 相似文献

The hierarchical approach to the DNA stability problem. II. Some applications and speculations with yeast mitochondrial DNA as an example 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
As discussed in the preceding article [1] hierarchical analysis of DNA sequences should make it possible to treat complex unfolding (and refolding) processes involving both equilibrium and non-equilibrium subtransitions. Hence a variety of actual experimental situations may be analyzed. This is demonstrated with the help of a 1950 bp yeast mitochondrial DNA sequence encompassing part of the 21S ribosomal RNA gene: excellent fit of complex denaturation and renaturation profiles is achieved with only two adjustable parameters. The advantage of dealing with objectively defined stability units is also apparent when stability profiles are compared to known functional maps: striking correlations may be brought out and their possible significance is briefly discussed. 相似文献

The Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) mitochondrial DNA has been extracted from embryonal suspensor masses. In addition to a master chromosome, a
family of plasmid-like DNAs were identified. These latter shared cross homologies but had no evident sequence homology with
the master chromosome. The occurrence of mitochondrial plasmid-like DNAs was investigated in trees from different provenances.
A vast majority of trees displayed extrachromosomal DNA elements of variable stoechiometry. For some trees, the sequences
homologous to the extrachromosomal DNA elements were found associated with high molecular weight DNA.

DNA content and DNA polymerase activity were measured on rabbit blastocysts removed from the uterus at 24-hr intervals over the period of days 4-7 postcoitum (pc). Median DNA content increased 53 times over the 72-hr period, from 25.3 ng on day 4 to 1,360 ng on day 7. Median DNA polymerase activity (fmole of radiolabeled nucleotide incorporated in 30 min at 37 degrees C) increased 393-fold from day 4 to day 7: 32.8 to 12,900. These embryos also increased in surface area and volume by 334-fold and 6,078-fold, respectively. Litters containing individuals with high DNA content also tended to have similar individuals with high DNA polymerase activity. Therefore, DNA polymerase activity may be a useful measure of the potential for the next cell division. A large amount of variation existed between blastocysts in all parameters measured. An analysis of variance, conducted to partition variation between litters and within litters, determined that within-litter variation was actually greater than that between litters, resulting in intraclass correlation coefficients less than 0.5. There was also a positive regression of DNA content and DNA polymerase activity on surface area in 6- and 7-day-old blastocysts after eliminating variation attributable to litters. The developmental pattern of DNA polymerase activity in the rabbit may be quantitatively different from that described in the mouse. The pattern in mammals is very different from that described in several nonmammalian species. 相似文献

Overlap hybridization screening: isolation and characterization of overlapping DNA fragments surrounding the leu2 gene on yeast chromosome III. 总被引:36,自引:0,他引:36
A set of four plasmids containing overlapping segments comprising a total of about 30 kbp of cloned DNA from chromosome III of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) has been isolated and characterized by restriction endonuclease analyses and DNA:DNA hybridizations. Colony hybridization was carried out with labeled pYe(leu2)10, a plasmid carrying the yeast leu2 gene, to a bank of bacterial colonies containing recombinant plasmids constructed from the vector ColE1 and random fragments of yeast DNA. This resulted in the detection of two plasmids, pYe11G4 and pYe40C3, with DNA inserts which partially overlap the original cloned segment and contain additional DNA extending in opposite directions on the chromosome. By carrying out a second round of colony hybridization with pYe40C3, the cloned region was further extended in one direction. A region of DNA that is repeated at least ten times in the yeast genome was identified by hybridization of pYe11G4 to an EcoRI digest of total yeast DNA. The procedure described in this paper should allow the isolation of large sections of chromosomes, including non-transcribed regions, surrounding cloned genes. 相似文献

Four entomopathogenic bacteria contained extrachromosomal deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules of various sizes. Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki contained twelve elements banding on agarose gels that ranged from 0.74 to > 50 × 106 daltons, three of which were giant extrachromosomal DNA elements. B. thuringiensis var. sotto contained one giant extrachromosomal DNA element with a molecular size of about 23.5 × 106 daltons and two lesser elements of 0.80 and 0.62 × 106 daltons. B. thuringiensis var. finitimus harbored two giant DNA elements corresponding to >50 × 106 daltons and two lesser bands with relative small size (0.98 and 0.97 × 106 daltons). B. popilliae contained no giant extrachromosomal DNA elements but did contain two smaller elements corresponding to 4.45 and 0.58 × 106 daltons. The possible use of extrachromosomal DNA elements that prove to be autonomous replicons for recombinant DNA studies is discussed. 相似文献

The faithful transmission of genetic information from a mother to daughter cells can only occur if the integrity of the genome is preserved. DNA transactions within cells are tightly regulated to prevent DNA damage. When events that challenge genome integrity do occur, a complex web of DNA damage response pathways comes into play. Studies in model organisms have contributed significantly to the understanding of these pathways. In the last decade, the development of functional genomics techniques in S.cerevisiae has ushered in systematic approaches for the study of complex cellular processes. These methods have enabled the systematic interrogation of the DNA damage response. 相似文献

Melting curves and circular dichroism spectra were measured for a number of DNA dumbbell and linear molecules containing dinucleotide repeat sequences of different lengths. To study effects of different sequences on the melting and spectroscopic properties, six DNA dumbbells whose stems contain the central sequences (AA)(10), (AC)(10), (AG)(10), (AT)(10), (GC)(10), and (GG)(10) were prepared. These represent the minimal set of 10 possible dinucleotide repeats. To study effects of dinucleotide repeat length, dumbbells with the central sequences (AG)(n), n = 5 and 20, were prepared. Control molecules, dumbbells with a random central sequence, (RN)(n), n = 5, 10, and 20, were also prepared. The central sequence of each dumbbell was flanked on both sides by the same 12 base pairs and T(4) end-loops. Melting curves were measured by optical absorbance and differential scanning calorimetry in solvents containing 25, 55, 85, and 115 mM Na(+). CD spectra were collected from 20 to 45 degrees C and [Na(+)] from 25 to 115 mM. The spectral database did not reveal any apparent temperature dependence in the pretransition region. Analysis of the melting thermodynamics evaluated as a function of Na(+) provided a means for quantitatively estimating the counterion release with melting for the different sequences. Results show a very definite sequence dependence, indicating the salt-dependent properties of duplex DNA are also sequence dependent. Linear DNA molecules containing the (AG)(n) and (RN)(n), sequences, n = 5, 10, 20, and 30, were also prepared and studied. The linear DNA molecules had the exact sequences of the dumbbell stems. That is, the central repeat sequence in each linear duplex was flanked on both sides by the same 12-bp sequence. Melting and CD studies were also performed on the linear DNA molecules. Comparison of results obtained for the same sequences in dumbbell and linear molecular environments reveals several interesting features of the interplay between sequence-dependent structural variability, sequence length, and the unconstrained (linear) or constrained (dumbbell) molecular environments. 相似文献

A chitosanolytic enzyme was purified from Enterobacter sp. G-1 by fractionation of 30% saturation with ammonium sulfate, isoelectric focusing, and Sephadex G-100 gel chromatography. The purified enzyme. showed a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and the molecular mass was estimated to be 50 kDa. The enzyme degraded N-acetyl-chitooligosaccharides, glycol chitin, colloidal chitin, and colloidal chitosan (about 80% deacetylated), but did not degrade chitooligosaccharides, colloidal chitosan (100% deacetylated), or Micrococcus lysodeikticus cell walls. It hydrolyzed GlcNAc4–6 and colloidal chitin to GlcNAc2, finally. The main cleavage site with GlcNAc3–6 was the second linkage from the non-reducing end, based on the pattern of pNp-GlcNAc2–5. Colloidal chitosan was hydrolyzed to GlcNAc2 and to similar partially N-acetylated chitooligosaccharides. 相似文献

The repair of T:G mismatches in DNA is key for maintaining bacterial restriction/modification systems and gene silencing in higher eukaryotes. T:G mismatch repair can be initiated by a specific mismatch glycosylase (MIG) that is homologous to the helix-hairpin-helix (HhH) DNA repair enzymes. Here, we present a 2.0 A resolution crystal structure and complementary mutagenesis results for this thermophilic HhH MIG enzyme. The results suggest that MIG distorts the target thymine nucleotide by twisting the thymine base approximately 90 degrees away from its normal anti position within DNA. We propose that functionally significant differences exist in DNA repair enzyme extrahelical nucleotide binding and catalysis that are characteristic of whether the target base is damaged or is a normal base within a mispair. These results explain why pure HhH DNA glycosylases and combined glycosylase/AP lyases cannot be interconverted by simply altering their functional group chemistry, and how broad-specificity DNA glycosylase enzymes may weaken the glycosylic linkage to allow a variety of damaged DNA bases to be excised. 相似文献

Extensive Mitochondrial Introgression from Pinus pumila to P. parviflora var. pentaphylla (Pinaceae)
Mayumi Senjo Katsutoshi Kimura Yasuyuki Watano Kunihiko Ueda Tatemi Shimizu 《Journal of plant research》1999,112(1):97-105
Pinus species exhibit a paternal chloroplast inheritance and a maternal mitochondrial inheritance. The levels and patterns of cpDNA
and mtDNA introgression between the two pine species, P. pumila and P. parviflora var. pentaphylla, were examined at three mountain sites in Japan. The pine species were examined by using PCR-based diagnostic genetic markers
of cpDNA and mtDNA. The survey which was carried out in multiple hybrid zones demonstrated a generality in the uni-directional
pattern of cytoplasmic gene flow between the two pine species, i.e. paternal cpDNA flowed from P. parviflora var. pentaphylla to P. pumila, and in contrast, maternal mtDNA flowed from P. pumila to P. parviflora var. pentaphylla. Whenever plants which had a non-native combination of cpDNA and mtDNA were observed, they always had the cpDNA haplotype
of P. parviflora var. pentaphylla and the mtDNA haplotype of P. pumila. The existence of only this type of cytoplasmic chimera may suggest that F1 hybrids are successfully produced only in the crossing of P. pumila as the maternal parent and P. parviflora var. pentaphylla as the paternal parent. The present study also detected extensive mtDNA capture in populations of P. parviflora var. pentaphylla located in the southern and middle parts of the Ohu Mountains, Tohoku, Japan. In that area, nearly all of the plants examined
had the mtDNA haplotype of P. pumila. The extensive mtDNA introgression suggests that seed flow could be an effective medium for interspecific gene exchange.

Abstract Total cellular DNAs of 10 Frankia isolates from Alnus, Elaeagnus and Colletia spp. root nodules were cleaved with ten site-specific restriction endonucleases and analysed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Among the endonucleases tested, Bam HI, Bgl II, Sal I and Sma I proved to be the most suitable for the genome analysis in Frankia spp. DNA restriction banding patterns were reproducible and characteristic of each Frankia strain. The patterns of different strains differed marked indicating considerable genotypic heterogeneity among the isolates. The approach can be used for strain identification in Frankia spp. as well as for differentiation between phenotypically similar strains. 相似文献

The systematic position of the Malagasy Phlebotomus (Diptera: Psychodidae) species was assessed in molecular phylogenetic studies. Three molecular markers were sequenced: cytochrome b of the mitochondrial DNA; ITS2, and the D8 domain of the ribosomal DNA. The following species were studied: Phlebotomus (Anaphlebotomus) berentiensis, Phlebotomus (Anaphlebotomus) fertei, Phlebotomus (Anaphlebotomus) fontenillei, Phlebotomus (Anaphlebotomus) vaomalalae and Phlebotomus (Anaphlebotomus) vincenti from Madagascar; Phlebotomus (Anaphlebotomus) stantoni from Asia, and Phlebotomus (Anaphlebotomus) rodhaini from Africa. The following outgroups were selected: Phlebotomus (Euphlebotomus) argentipes, Phlebotomus (Euphlebotomus) barguesae, Phlebotomus (Larroussius) perfiliewi s.l. and Phlebotomus (Adlerius) simici. Each marker analysed by maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood supports the monophyly of the Malagasy Phlebotomus spp. Consequently, we create a new subgenus for these species: Madaphlebotomus subg. nov. This molecular individualization is reinforced by the originality of their spermathecae and by the fact that their geographical distribution is limited to Madagascar, and considers the high level of endemism on this island. 相似文献
