Use of Green Fluorescent Protein in mouse embryos

Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) has rapidly been established as a versatile and powerful cell marker in many organisms. Initial problems in using it in mammalian cells were solved by introducing mutations to increase its solubility at higher temperatures, such that GFP has now been used as a reporter in both gene expression and cell lineage studies, and to localize proteins within mammalian cells. GFP has two unique advantages: (i) the protein becomes fluorescent in an autocatalytic reaction, so that it can be introduced into any cell type simply as a cDNA or mRNA, or as protein; (ii) it is "bright" enough to be visualized in living cells under conditions that do not cause photodamage to the cells. In this article we outline the ways in which we have used GFP mRNA and cDNA in our studies of mouse cell lineages, and to characterize the behavior of proteins within the embryos.

Use of Green Fluorescent Protein To Tag and Investigate Gene Expression in Marine Bacteria

Two broad-host-range vectors previously constructed for use in soil bacteria (A. G. Matthysse, S. Stretton, C. Dandie, N. C. McClure, and A. E. Goodman, FEMS Microbiol. Lett. 145:87–94, 1996) were assessed by epifluorescence microscopy for use in tagging three marine bacterial species. Expression of gfp could be visualized in Vibrio sp. strain S141 cells at uniform levels of intensity from either the lac or the npt-2 promoter, whereas expression of gfp could be visualized in Psychrobacter sp. strain SW5H cells at various levels of intensity only from the npt-2 promoter. Green fluorescent protein (GFP) fluorescence was not detected in the third species, Pseudoalteromonas sp. strain S91, when the gfp gene was expressed from either promoter. A new mini-Tn10-kan-gfp transposon was constructed to investigate further the possibilities of fluorescence tagging of marine bacteria. Insertion of mini-Tn10-kan-gfp generated random stable mutants at high frequencies with all three marine species. With this transposon, strongly and weakly expressed S91 promoters were isolated. Visualization of GFP by epifluorescence microscopy was markedly reduced when S91 (mini-Tn10-kan-gfp) cells were grown in rich medium compared to that when cells were grown in minimal medium. Mini-Tn10-kan-gfp was used to create an S91 chitinase-negative, GFP-positive mutant. Expression of the chi-gfp fusion was induced in cells exposed to N′-acetylglucosamine or attached to chitin particles. By laser scanning confocal microscopy, biofilms consisting of microcolonies of chi-negative, GFP⁺ S91 cells were found to be localized several microns from a natural chitin substratum. Tagging bacterial strains with GFP enables visualization of, as well as monitoring of gene expression in, living single cells in situ and in real time.     

Agrobacterium tumefaciens-Mediated Transformation of Rosa hybrida using the Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) Gene

Embryogenic calluses of Rosa hybrida cultivar Tineke were transformed with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404 containing the binary vector pBIN m-gfp5-ER into which the virE/virG genes had been inserted. Visualization of GFP-expressing cells enabled visual selection of dividing, embryogenic cell clusters that were transgenic. When the Agrobacterium strain with the bifunctional fusion marker containing additional virE/virG genes was used, the number of green fluorescent calluses increased. Transformation of the GFP-expressing rose plants was confirmed by Southern blot analysis.     

The Green Fluorescent Protein Gene Functions as a Reporter of Gene Expression in Phanerochaete chrysosporium

The enhanced green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene (egfp) was used as a reporter of gene expression driven by the glyceraldehyde-p-dehydrogenase (gpd) gene promoter and the manganese peroxidase isozyme 1 (mnp1) gene promoter in Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Four different constructs were prepared. pUGGM3′ and pUGiGM3′ contain the P. chrysosporium gpd promoter fused upstream of the egfp coding region, and pUMGM3′ and pUMiGM3′ contain the P. chrysosporium mnp1 promoter fused upstream of the egfp gene. In all constructs, the egfp gene was followed by the mnp1 gene 3′ untranslated region. In pUGGM3′ and pUMGM3′, the promoters were fused directly with egfp, whereas in pUGiGM3′ and pUMiGM3′, following the promoters, the first exon (6 bp), the first intron (55 bp), and part of the second exon (9 bp) of the gpd gene were inserted at the 5′ end of the egfp gene. All constructs were ligated into a plasmid containing the ura1 gene of Schizophyllum commune as a selectable marker and were used to transform a Ural1 auxotrophic strain of P. chrysosporium to prototrophy. Crude cell extracts were examined for GFP fluorescence, and where appropriate, the extracellular fluid was examined for MnP activity. The transformants containing a construct with an intron 5′ of the egfp gene (pUGiGM3′ and pUMiGM3′) exhibited maximal fluorescence under the appropriate conditions. The transformants containing constructs with no introns exhibited minimal or no fluorescence. Northern (RNA) blots indicated that the insertion of a 5′ intron resulted in more egfp RNA than was found in transformants carrying an intronless egfp. These results suggest that the presence of a 5′ intron affects the expression of the egfp gene in P. chrysosporium. The expression of GFP in the transformants carrying pUMiGM3′ paralled the expression of endogenous mnp with respect to nitrogen and Mn levels, suggesting that this construct will be useful in studying cis-acting elements in the mnp1 gene promoter.

Transformation of Erwinia carotovora ssp. atroseptica with the Green Fluorescent Protein Gene from Aequorea victoria

Erwinia carotovora ssp. atroseptica has been transfortned with the green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene from Aequorea victoria. Transformants had very high levels of GFP expression but some plasmid instability was apparent when bacteria were not grown on atnpicillin. Confocal microscopy showed variation between cells in the level of expression of GFP. Transfonnants retained their pathogenicity on potatoes, rotting tubers and causing typical blackleg symptoms when inoculated into stems, but the level of fluorescence was not suitable for observing bacterial movement. In contrast, E. coli producing GFP could be used to follow bacterial movement within vascular tissue of potato leaves.
