cDNA representational difference analysis (cDNA RDA) is a PCR-based subtractive enrichment procedure for the cloning of differentially expressed genes. In this study, we have further developed the procedure to take advantage of solid-phase technology, and to facilitate the use of RDA when starting material is limited. Several parameters of the PCR-based generation of cDNA representations were investigated, and a solid-phase based purification step was introduced to simplify removal of digested adapter-ends and uncleaved fragments. The use of magnetic particles increased the speed of the method, and also eliminated the risk of carry-over contamination between iterative steps of subtraction and PCR amplification. The modified protocol was evaluated in monitoring differences in gene expression in (i) a rat system consisting of livers with and without growth hormone treatment, and in (ii) a human system consisting of normal colon and colon cancer. 相似文献

Large genes present particular cloning difficulties, especially when expressed at relatively low levels. We describe a novel method, termed 3' rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) walking, for the rapid determination of unknown 3' flanking sequence of a large cDNA. The technique is a derivative of the anchored PCR 5' RACE procedure but includes a specific and limited second-strand cDNA synthesis and a tiered "panhandle" suppression of nonspecific products. The method generated 900 bp of new sequence for the large tammar wallaby ATRY gene in two easy steps, in which standard 3' RACE and PCR-based cDNA library walking proved unsuccessful. This robust approach represents a new tool for isolating unknown sequence under challenging cloning scenarios such as poor library representation, long coding regions, long 3' untranslated regions, and difficult template regions. 相似文献

Assigning functions to newly discovered genes constitutes one of the major challenges en route to fully exploiting the data becoming available from the genome sequencing initiatives. Heterologous expression in an appropriate host is central in functional genomics studies. In this context, filamentous fungi offer many advantages over bacterial and yeast systems. To facilitate the use of filamentous fungi in functional genomics, we present a versatile cloning system that allows a gene of interest to be expressed from a defined genomic location of Aspergillus nidulans. By a single USER cloning step, genes are easily inserted into a combined targeting-expression cassette ready for rapid integration and analysis. The system comprises a vector set that allows genes to be expressed either from the constitutive PgpdA promoter or from the inducible PalcA promoter. Moreover, by using the vector set, protein variants can easily be made and expressed from the same locus, which is mandatory for proper comparative analyses. Lastly, all individual elements of the vectors can easily be substituted for other similar elements, ensuring the flexibility of the system. We have demonstrated the potential of the system by transferring the 7,745-bp large mpaC gene from Penicillium brevicompactum to A. nidulans. In parallel, we produced defined mutant derivatives of mpaC, and the combined analysis of A. nidulans strains expressing mpaC or mutated mpaC genes unequivocally demonstrated that mpaC indeed encodes a polyketide synthase that produces the first intermediate in the production of the medically important immunosuppressant mycophenolic acid. 相似文献

Many filamentous fungi of all taxa can now be subject to DNA-mediated transformation. Many dominant selectable markers are available and the range available is increasing as new genes are cloned. Transformation is especially valuable in cloning genes defined by mutations with selectable phenotypes and is allowing investigation of many problems in fungi with good genetic systems. Increasingly sophisticated techniques for inactivating genes, targetingin vitro generated mutations to specific loci, and altering gene expression and its regulation are being developed. These approaches are being used to investigate the wealth of basic and applied biological problems available in filamentous fungi. 相似文献

We have investigated a PCR-based approach for one-step gene targeting in the filamentous fungus Ashbya gossypii. Short guide sequences with 40-46 bp of homology to two sequences of a targeted gene, provided by PCR, were sufficient to mediate homologous recombination. The PCR products used for transformation were generated from the newly constructed chimeric selection marker GEN3. This consists of the open reading frame of the Escherichia coli kanR gene under the control of promoter and terminator sequences of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae TEF2 gene and allows selection of G418/geneticin-resistant transformants. Verification of gene targeting was performed either by PCR or by DNA hybridization analyses, and in all 18 cases tested, correct targeting was confirmed. This approach was used for the complete deletion of the open reading frame of the A. gossypii RHO4 gene for which a double-strand sequence was available as information source for the design of PCR primers. We also demonstrated successful partial deletion of four other ORFs using single-read sequences (SRS) as sole information for the design of targeting primers. A gossypii is the first filamentous fungus in which a PCR-based gene disruption technique has been established. Since short target guide sequences are sufficient to direct homologous integration into the A. gossypii genome it is not necessary to obtain and sequence large DNA fragments from a target locus to provide the long flanking homology regions usually required for efficient targeting of cloned disruption cassettes in filamentous fungi. Thus functional analysis of A. gossypii genes is already possible, based on single-pass sequence information. 相似文献

We have developed a sib selection procedure for cloning Neurospora crassa nuclear genes by complementation of mutants. This procedure takes advantage of a modified N. crassa transformation procedure that gives as many as 10,000 to 50,000 stable transformants per microgram of DNA with recombinant plasmids containing the N. crassa qa-2+ gene. Here, we describe the use of the sib selection procedure to clone genes corresponding to auxotrophic mutants, nic-1 and inl. The identities of the putative clones were confirmed by mapping their chromosomal locations in standard genetic crosses and using restriction site polymorphisms as genetic markers. Because we can obtain very high N. crassa transformation frequencies, cloning can be accomplished with as few as five subdivisions of an N. crassa genomic library. The sib selection procedure should, for the first time, permit the cloning of any gene corresponding to an N. crassa mutant for which an appropriate selection can be devised. Analogous procedures may be applicable to other filamentous fungi before the development of operational shuttle vectors. 相似文献

Forward genetic analysis is the most broadly applicable approach to discern gene functions. However, for some organisms like the filamentous ascomycete Neurospora crassa, genetic mapping frequently represents a limiting step in forward genetic approaches. We describe an efficient method for genetic mapping in N. crassa that makes use of a modified bulked segregant analysis and PCR-based molecular markers. This method enables mapping with progeny from a single cross and requires only 90 PCR amplifications. Genetic distances between syntenic markers have been determined to ensure complete coverage of the genome and to allow interpolation of linkage data. As a result, most mutations should be mapped in less than one month to within 1-5 map units, a level of resolution sufficient to initiate map-based cloning efforts. This system also will facilitate analyses of recombination at a genome-wide level and is applicable to other perfect fungi when suitable markers are available. 相似文献

Although the application of filamentous fungi, such asAspergillus niger for the production of extracellular proteins is well established for several decades, hardly any information is available about the molecular mechanisms of the process of protein secretion in these organisms.Two lines of research initiated towards a systematic analysis of the mechanism of protein targeting and secretion are presented in this paper.1 — To study routing and targeting of proteins in filamentous fungi the availability of a versatile reporter/carrier protein will be of considerable importance. Experiments towards the identification of such a protein are presented.2 — In analogy to the situation inSaccharomyces cerevisiae, the availability of defined (conditional) mutations in the secretion pathway will provide very important information about the organisation of the pathway. Therefore, based on results obtained inS. cerevisiae, the cloning of several fungal secretion genes was started. The results of the cloning and characterisation of one of these genes is presented. 相似文献

Here we report an improved method for targeted gene disruption with high efficiency in S. cerevisiae, where the selection markers with long homologous arms are defined by the choice of the primer binding sites at the target
locus and the disruption cassettes are constructed by restriction-free (RF) cloning strategy. Three genes, SAM1, IDH1 and IDH2, were disrupted with this method and the disruption efficiencies of SAM1 was improved several folds with much lower false-positive rates compared to the conventional one-step PCR-based gene disruption
method. This approach for gene disruption cassettes construction with long flanking homologous arms may be readily applicable
to facilitate targeted gene disruption in other non-conventional yeasts and fungi. 相似文献

A polymerase chain reaction-based method for cloning novel members of a gene family using a combination of degenerate and inhibitory primers 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

We have developed a novel method for cloning gene family members by using a polymerase chain reaction technique. The method is based on the amplification of a broad range of homologous genes in combination with the specific inhibition of already cloned genes. To accomplish this, we designed degenerate primers to highly conserved regions among the gene family members, and inhibitory primers to the divergent region at the 3'-margin of each degenerate primer. The 5'-end of the inhibitory primer, the 3'-end of which was aminated, had 3-4 bases overlapping the 3'-end of the degenerate primer. The potential of this method was demonstrated by the successful cloning of a novel member of the yeast MKC7/YAP3 gene family homologue from a filamentous fungus, Aspergillus oryzae, by inhibiting amplification of an already cloned homologue, opsB. 相似文献

Deciphering the complex cellular behaviours and advancing the biotechnology applications of filamentous fungi increase the requirement for genetically manipulating a large number of target genes. The current strategies cannot cyclically coedit multiple genes simultaneously. In this study, we firstly revealed the existence of diverse homologous recombination (HR) types in marker-free editing of filamentous fungi, and then, demonstrated that sgRNA efficiency-mediated competitive inhibition resulted in the low integration of multiple genetic sites during coediting, which are the two major obstacles to limit the efficiency of cyclically coediting of multiple genes. To overcome these obstacles, we developed a biased cutting strategy by Cas9 to greatly enhance the desired HR type and applied a new selection marker labelling strategy for multiple donor DNAs, in which only the donor DNA with the lowest sgRNA efficiency was labelled. Combined with these strategies, we successfully developed a convenient method for cyclically coediting multiple genes in different filamentous fungi. In addition, diverse HRs resulted in a useful and convenient one-step approach for gene functional study combining both gene disruption and complementation. This research provided both a useful one-step approach for gene functional study and an efficient strategy for cyclically coediting multiple genes in filamentous fungi. 相似文献

A synthetic gene encoding the Schizophyllum commune xylanase XynA was constructed by a novel PCR-based procedure. Three long oligonucleotides were synthesized and used in combination with flanking PCR primers to generate a 607 base pair gene which contained 31 unique locations for restriction enzyme cleavage. The amino acid sequence was tailored for expression in Escherichia coli by using only those codons found in highly expressed E. coli genes. The availability of the gene will facilitate analysis of the structure and function of this and other beta-(1,4) xylanases. 相似文献

利用电子克隆技术从稻瘟菌中克隆到一个新的Ⅰ型烯醇化酶全长cDNA,暂命为MgEno-1。MgEno-1全长1571核薯酸,其预测的ORF为1317核苷酸,共编码438个氨基酸。起始密码子ATG位于第53位,终止密码子TAA位于第1369位。序列分析表明该烯醇化酶与丝状真菌中已报道的其它烯醇化酶高度同源,且长度一致,这暗示烯醇化酶基因进化上高度保守,甚至有可能像18SrRNA一样可作为进化尺度。这将是第一个用电子克隆技术从稻瘟菌中克隆到的基因。 相似文献

Molecular genetic analyses in Schizosaccharomyces pombe are greatly enhanced by our ability to delete chromosomal genes via homologous recombination and to introduce genes expressed from autonomous plasmids. In this paper, we describe a novel approach to generating marked deletion cassettes that bypasses the need for the long, PAGE-purified oligonucleotides required in the currently used PCR-based deletion approach. We also describe additional uses of this two-step PCR method for constructing chromosomal insertion cassettes. Finally, we describe how gap repair in S. pombe can facilitate plasmid constructions in a manner that circumvents the reliance on compatible restriction sites in the DNA molecules that are being joined. Several applications of this gap repair plasmid construction strategy are discussed. 相似文献

担子菌类的食用菌种类多、价值高、产量大,然而其产业的升级发展需要对食用菌生长发育相关生物学问题进行深入解析。目前多种食用菌完成了全基因组测序,然而作为非模式种其与模式丝状真菌间的直系同源基因目前尚缺乏全基因组水平的系统研究,在一定程度上限制了其分子生物学研究的深入。本研究以草菇为参照物种,将其与几种食用菌和模式丝状真菌进行两两直系同源基因分析,并对多物种间不同类型的直系同源基因进行功能富集。结果显示:一对一直系同源基因较多富集于基因复制、转录、翻译、修饰、加工等保守的基本功能类别;非一对一直系同源基因多属于基因家族,且包含了65%的转录因子,功能上富集在碳水化合物、脂质、氨基酸、次生代谢物及外源物质的代谢通路。无直系同源基因则较多富集在与基因重组、修复、信号转导相关的功能类别、特导性转录因子以及未知的预测基因。结果为食用菌分子生物学的深入研究提供有价值的参考。 相似文献
