We constructed a high-efficiency expression library from Arabidopsis cDNA clones by introducing a poly (dC) stretch at the 5' end of the clones. This library enables the synthesis of proteins from all the cDNA clones present. We have screened the high-efficiency expression library with antibodies raised against total proteins from Arabidopsis plasmalemma and tonoplast. With the positive clones, we have constructed two cDNA ordered libraries enriched in genes encoding plasmalemma (522 clones) and tonoplast proteins (594 clones). Partial sequencing of both libraries shows that a high proportion (47%) of the clones encoded putative membrane proteins, or membrane-associated proteins. When sequenced, 55% of the cDNAs were new EST sequences for Arabidopsis, 26% were similar to genes present in other plants or organisms, and 29% were not referenced in any databank. Immunoscreening of the two cDNA ordered libraries with antibodies raised against proteins from Arabidopsis cells submitted to osmotic stress allows the selection of genes over- and under-expressed in stress conditions. 相似文献

Expressed sequence tag analysis of expression profiles of zebrafish testis and ovary 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
In the present study, two gonad cDNA libraries from zebrafish testes and ovaries were constructed and a total of 1025 expressed sequence tag (EST) clones were generated from the two libraries: 501 from the testis library and 524 from the ovary library. A total of 641 of the EST clones were identified to share significant sequence identity with known sequences in GenBank, representing at least 478 different zebrafish genes. In order to understand the molecular compositions of the two gonad organs, the expression profiles of the identified clones in these two gonad cDNA libraries were analyzed. Both gonad libraries have a higher portion of clones for nuclear proteins and a lower portion for proteins in translational machinery, cytoskeleton and mitochondria than our previously characterized whole-adult cDNA library. Most abundant cDNA clones in the two gonad libraries were identified and over 10% of ovary clones were found to encode egg membrane proteins (zona pellucida or ZP proteins). Furthermore, the testis library showed a more even distribution of cDNA clones with relatively fewer abundant clones that tend to contribute redundant clones in EST projects; thus, the testis library can supply more unique and novel cDNA sequences in a zebrafish EST project. Another aim of this study is to identify cDNA clones that can be used as molecular markers for the analysis of the gonad development in zebrafish. Eleven potential clones were selected to analyze their expression patterns by Northern blot hybridization. Most of them showed a specific or predominant expression in the expected testis or ovary tissue. At last, four of the clones were found, by section in situ hybridization, to be expressed specifically in the germ cells of the testis or ovary and thus they are suitable molecular markers for analyses of spermatogenesis and oogenesis. 相似文献

Osmotic stress-related genes were selected from an EST database constructed from 7 cDNA libraries from different tissues of the hot pepper. A full-length cDNA of Capsicum annuum dehydrin (Cadhn), a late embryogenesis abundant (lea) gene, was selected from the 5' single pass sequenced cDNA clones and sequenced. The deduced polypeptide has 87% identity with potato dehydrin C17, but very little identity with the dehydrin genes of other organisms. It contains a serine-tract (S-segment) and 3 conserved lysine-rich domains (K-segments). Southern blot analysis showed that 2 copies are present in the hot pepper genome. Cadhn was induced by osmotic stress in leaf tissues as well as by the application of abscisic acid. The RNA was most abundant in green fruit. The expression of several osmotic stress-related genes was examined and Cadhn proved to be the most abundantly expressed of these in response to osmotic stress. 相似文献

To assess the utility of expressed sequence tag (EST) sequencing as a method of gene discovery in the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila, we have sequenced either the 5' or 3' ends of 157 clones chosen at random from two cDNA libraries constructed from the mRNA of vegetatively growing cultures. Of 116 total non-redundant clones, 8.6% represented genes previously cloned in Tetrahymena. Fifty-two percent had significant identity to genes from other organisms represented in GenBank, of which 92% matched human proteins. Intriguing matches include an opioid-regulated protein, a glutamate-binding protein for an NMDA-receptor, and a stem-cell maintenance protein. Eleven-percent of the non-Tetrahymena specific matches were to genes present in humans and other mammals but not found in other model unicellular eukaryotes, including the completely sequenced Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Our data reinforce the fact that Tetrahymena is an excellent unicellular model system for studying many aspects of animal biology and is poised to become an important model system for genome-scale gene discovery and functional analysis. 相似文献

Hybrid polar compounds (HPCs), such as suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA), induce differentiation of transformed cells. Differential display of RNA was used to identify genes whose expression is changed during SAHA-induced differentiation of murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells. One such cDNA was identified whose mRNA level decreased by 50% after 8h of SAHA treatment as determined by Northern blot analysis. The full-length cDNA (1944bp in length) was cloned by sequencing of an EST clone and rapid amplification of 5' cDNA ends (5'-RACE). The predicted amino acid sequence is 589 amino acids and shares 45% identity with the yeast cytoplasmic phenylalanyl tRNA synthetase (PheRS) regulatory alpha-subunit. Human EST clones which share over 90% identity of predicted amino acid sequence with this cDNA map to chromosome 2 near the paired box homeotic gene 3 (PAX3) locus, a region syngenic to mouse chromosome 1. This is the first report of the cloning of the full-length cDNA for the murine PheRS regulatory alpha-subunit-like protein. The level of PheRS alpha-subunit-like mRNA is regulated during differentiation but not during cell cycle progression. 相似文献

We have developed the single-strand linker ligation method (SSLLM), which uses DNA ligase to add a dsDNA linker to single-stranded (ss) full-length cDNA. The linkers have random 6-bp (dN6 or dGN5) 3' overhangs that can ligate to any cDNA sequence, thereby facilitating the production of cDNA libraries with titers exceeding 1 x 10(6) independent clones. We confirmed that the 5' ends of cDNA inserts cloned by using SSLLM are full-length and include the 5' untranslated regions. The great advantage of our method is that the elimination of the GC tail simplifies the sequencing and protein translation of the full-length clones. Further, our method tags ss cDNAs more efficiently than does the traditional RNA ligase reaction. 相似文献

Discovery of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) requires analysis of redundant sequences such as those available in large public databases. The ability to detect SNPs, especially those of low frequency, is dependent on the depth and scale of the discovery effort. Large numbers of SNPs have been identified by mining large-scale EST surveys and whole genome sequencing projects. These surveys however are subject to ascertainment bias and the inherent errors in large-scale single pass sequencing efforts. For example, the number of steps involved in the construction and sequencing of cDNA libraries make ESTs highly error prone, resulting in an increased frequency of nonvalid SNPs obtained in these surveys. Sequences of mtDNA genes are often incorporated into cDNA libraries as an artifact of the library construction process and are typically either subtracted from cDNA libraries or are considered superfluous when evaluating the information content of EST datasets. Sequences of mtDNA genes provide a unique resource for the analysis of SNP parameters in EST projects. This study uses sequences from four turkey muscle cDNA libraries to demonstrate how mtDNA sequences gleaned from collections of ESTs can be used to estimate SNP parameters and thus help predict the validity of SNPs. 相似文献

Gene expression profile of human bone marrow stromal cells: high-throughput expressed sequence tag sequencing analysis 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Human bone marrow stromal cells (HBMSC) are pluripotent cells with the potential to differentiate into osteoblasts, chondrocytes, myelosupportive stroma, and marrow adipocytes. We used high-throughput DNA sequencing analysis to generate 4258 single-pass sequencing reactions (known as expressed sequence tags, or ESTs) obtained from the 5' (97) and 3' (4161) ends of human cDNA clones from a HBMSC cDNA library. Our goal was to obtain tag sequences from the maximum number of possible genes and to deposit them in the publicly accessible database for ESTs (dbEST of the National Center for Biotechnology Information). Comparisons of our EST sequencing data with nonredundant human mRNA and protein databases showed that the ESTs represent 1860 gene clusters. The EST sequencing data analysis showed 60 novel genes found only in this cDNA library after BLAST analysis against 3.0 million ESTs in NCBI's dbEST database. The BLAST search also showed the identified ESTs that have close homology to known genes, which suggests that these may be newly recognized members of known gene families. The gene expression profile of this cell type is revealed by analyzing both the frequency with which a message is encountered and the functional categorization of expressed sequences. Comparing an EST sequence with the human genomic sequence database enables assignment of an EST to a specific chromosomal region (a process called digital gene localization) and often enables immediate partial determination of intron/exon boundaries within the genomic structure. It is expected that high-throughput EST sequencing and data mining analysis will greatly promote our understanding of gene expression in these cells and of growth and development of the skeleton. 相似文献

Creation of genome-wide protein expression libraries using random activation of gene expression 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Here we report the use of random activation of gene expression (RAGE) to create genome-wide protein expression libraries. RAGE libraries containing only 5 x 10(6) individual clones were found to express every gene tested, including genes that are normally silent in the parent cell line. Furthermore, endogenous genes were activated at similar frequencies and expressed at similar levels within RAGE libraries created from multiple human cell lines, demonstrating that RAGE libraries are inherently normalized. Pools of RAGE clones were used to isolate 19,547 human gene clusters, approximately 53% of which were novel when tested against public databases of expressed sequence tag (EST) and complementary DNA (cDNA). Isolation of individual clones confirmed that the activated endogenous genes can be expressed at high levels to produce biologically active proteins. The properties of RAGE libraries and RAGE expression clones are well suited for a number of biotechnological applications including gene discovery, protein characterization, drug development, and protein manufacturing. 相似文献

Clones from full-length enriched cDNA libraries serve as valuable resources for functional genomic studies. We analyzed 3.210
chromatograms obtained from sequencing the 5′-ends of brainstem, liver, neocortex, and spleen clones derived from full-length
enriched cDNA libraries of Korean native pigs. In addition, 50,000 pig EST sequence trace files were obtained from Genbank
and combined with our sequencing information for SNP identificationin silico. For the SNP analysis, neocortex, and liver libraries were newly constructed, whereas the sequencing results from brainstem
and spleen libraries were from previously constructed libraries. The putative SNPs from thein silico analysis were confirmed by genomic PCR from a group of 20 pigs of four different breeds. Using this approach, 86% of cSNPs
identifiedin silico were confirmed and the SNP detection frequency was 1 SNP per 338 bp. Interestingly, we found a valine deletion at amino acid
position 126 of the neuronal and endocrine protein gene in the Korean native pig. We confirmed that this deletion was caused
by alternative splicing at the NAGNAG acceptors. Our study shows that large-scale EST sequencing of Korean native pigs can
be effectively employed for natural polymorphism-based pig genome analysis. 相似文献

The orf8 gene (Bm8) in Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) is one of 17 genes unique to group I NPVs and is expressed as an early gene. We have reported that Bm8 may play an important role during viral infection and that Bm8 protein co-localized with IE1 to specific nuclear foci throughout infection. It was also demonstrated that both IE1 and BmNPV hr facilitate this localization of Bm8. To investigate further, host proteins interacting with Bm8 were screened using a yeast two-hybrid system. We identified 6 host clones as Bm8-interacting partners from three cDNA libraries derived from BmN cells or B. mori larvae. Further assays showed that the N-terminal region of Bm8 is important for the interaction with most host clones and that two of the clones can associate with IE1. Cloning and sequencing of full-length cDNAs revealed that most of the clones potentially encode either membrane-bound proteins or secreted proteins. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis revealed that some of these host genes were slightly induced during the early stage of infection in BmN cells, and that the expression of all genes was markedly reduced during the late stage of infection. Generation of mutant BmNPVs over-expressing these host genes also identified a gene that potentially functions as a negative factor during BmNPV infection. These features of Bm8-interacting host proteins strongly support that Bm8 is a multifunctional protein involved in multiple signaling pathways in host cells. 相似文献
