Study of the stability of hybrid plasmids replicating in Saccharomyces cerevisiae due to DNA fragments from polyoma virus

Hybrid plasmid pSP97 carrying the entire genome of polyoma virus (PY), inserted into bacterial vector psV3, transforms yeast cells with the frequency 1 x 10(-2). Plasmid pSP97 is capable of autonomous replication in S. cerevisiae, while its structure remains unaltered, the stability of hybrid plasmid in transformants is 44%--100%. Plasmid pSP155 consisting of Ori-containing DNA segment from polyoma, pBR322 and yeast gene arg4, transforms yeast cells with the frequency 5 x 10(-3), the stability of plasmid in transformants is 23%--29%. Two types of plasmids were isolated from transformants: one was identical to SP155, while the another differed structurally and phenotypically from SP155. Plasmids pSP113 and pSP114, in addition to pBR322 and yeast gene arg4, contain a viral DNA segment that encodes genes from small and middle T-antigens. These plasmids transform yeast cells with low frequency (2 x 10(-4), 3 x 10(-5)), the stability of plasmids in yeast transformants is 100%. However, hybrid plasmids identical to pSP113 were isolated from transformants. Structural rearrangements have been observed in pSP114, which carries the arg4 gene in reversed orientation compared to pSP113.     

Molecular cloning and expression in Streptomyces lividans of a streptomycin 6-phosphotransferase gene from a streptomycin-producing microorganism

The gene encoding streptomycin 6-kinase involved in the self-resistance of the streptomycin-producing Streptomyces griseus HUT 6037 was cloned in the plasmid vector pIJ703. The resulting plasmid, pSP6, contained 2.5 kb inserts of S. griseus DNA. When streptomycin-susceptible S. lividans 1326 was retransformed with pSP6, all transformants produced streptomycin 6-kinase. Addition of streptomycin to the culture medium of S. lividans carrying pSP6 plasmid brought about a remarkable increase in streptomycin 6-kinase activity in the cell extracts. It is suggested from the results that the production of streptomycin 6-kinase in streptomycin producer was induced by streptomycin accumulated during cultivation.     

Characterization of a cryptic plasmid from Lactobacillus fermentum KC5b and its use for constructing a stable Lactobacillus cloning vector

Lactobacillus fermentum KC5b, a strain originally isolated from the human vagina, contains a cryptic plasmid pKC5b. The sequence and genetic organization of the 4392-bp plasmid were determined. It contains two convergently oriented replicons, which are homologous to each other and to the stable replicon of the Enterococcus faecium plasmid pMBB1. The two replicons of pKC5b were used either individually or together to construct Lactobacillus-Escherichia coli shuttle plasmids. Only the plasmid pSP1 that carried both replicons transformed lactobacilli, suggesting a complementary function between the two replicons. Since the replicons had a high homology to those of other plasmids that replicate via a theta-like mechanism and no detectable single-stranded intermediates were found for the plasmid, it is possible that pKC5b may replicate via a theta-like mechanism. The new shuttle plasmid pSP1 has been transformed and stably maintained in several Lactobacillus strains. As an initial application, pSP1 was used to clone the S-layer protein gene (slpA) of Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 4356 into a heterologous vaginal Lactobacillus strain and achieved surface-bound expression of the protein.

Cloning of the BamHI methyl transferase gene from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens

We wish to report the initial characterization of a recombinant clone containing the BamHI methylase gene. Genomic chromosomal DNA purified from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens was partially cleaved with HindIII, fractionated by size, and cloned into pSP64. Plasmid DNA from this library was challenged with BamHI endonuclease and transformed into Escherichia coli HB101. A recombinant plasmid pBamM6.5 and a subclone pBamM2.5 were shown to contain the BamHI methylase gene based on three independent observations. Both plasmids were found to be resistant to BamHI endonuclease cleavage, and chromosomal DNA isolated from E. coli HB101 cells harboring either of the plasmids pBamM6.5 or pBamM2.5 was resistant to cleavage by BamHI endonuclease. In addition, DNA isolated from lambda phage passaged through E. coli HB101 containing either plasmid was also resistant to BamHI cleavage. Expression of the BamHI methylase gene is dependent on orientation in pSP64. In these clones preliminary evidence indicates that methylase gene expression may be under the direction of the plasmid encoded LacZ promoter.     

A plasmid vector allowing positive selection of recombinant plasmids in Streptococcus pneumoniae

A new plasmid, pSP2, was constructed as a cloning vector for use in Streptococcus pneumoniae. It allows direct selection of recombinant plasmids, even for DNA fragments not homologous to the S. pneumoniae chromosome, as based on the failure to maintain long inverted repeats (LIRs) hyphen-free in bacterial plasmids. Plasmid pSP2 contains a 1.4-kb BamHI fragment ("hyphen") flanked by 1.9-kb LIRs. The removal of the 1.4-kb BamHI fragment followed by ligation creates a plasmid containing a 1.9-kb insert-free LIR; plasmids with such non-hyphenated LIRs were not established when transferred into S. pneumoniae. Replacement of the original 1.4-kb insert by other restriction fragments restored plasmid viability. Investigation of plasmid transfer by transformation suggests that intrastrand synapsis between the LIRs could occur, thus facilitating plasmid establishment (a process we call self-facilitation). Such an intrastrand synapsis could also account for rare occurrences of insert-inversion noticed upon transfer as well as for the formation of palindrome-deleted derivatives at low frequency. Plasmid pSP2 carries two selectable genes, tet and ermC, and can be used for cloning of fragments produced by a variety of restriction enzymes (BamHI, Bg/II, Bc/I or Sau3A, and Sa/I or XhoI).     

Rapid and reliable dideoxy sequencing of double-stranded DNA

We report a simple and reliable protocol for nucleotide sequencing using the Sanger dideoxy technique on linearized double-stranded DNA molecules with specific oligonucleotide primers. The method is demonstrated for restriction fragments cloned into the plasmid vectors pSP64 and pSP65 using two vector-specific primers, the M 13 reverse primer and a new SP6 primer, flanking the multiple cloning site. Template DNA may be prepared by a rapid alkaline lysis procedure. Mild linearization conditions with the appropriate restriction endonuclease avoid the appearance of artifact bands.
