Summary We have cloned the tolC gene of E. coli K-12 into pSF2124 by using transposon Tn10 as the marker to first isolate the relevant DNA fragment. The gene is on a 10.5 kb EcoRI fragment, and Tn5 insertion mutagenesis locates the gene near one end of this EcoRI fragment. An EcoRI-PstI fragment has been subcloned into pBR322 to facilitate further analysis of the gene.Abbreviations Tris Tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane - EDTA Ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid - DOC Sodium deoxycholate - DNA Deoxyribonucleic acid - SDS Sodium dodecyl sulphate - kb kilo base pairs  相似文献

The gene promoting nucleic-acid degradation (pnd) on IncIa plasmid R483 was cloned into pBR322. It is located on a 0.85 kilobase (kb) EcoRI-SalI fragment and is close to Tn7. The pnd gene has similar properties to the srnB gene on the F plasmid. A cleavage map of the 0.85 kb pnd fragment was constructed and compared with that of the 1.18 kb EcoRI-BamHI fragment containing the srnB gene. These two regions showed marked heterogeneity as evidenced by their distinctly different restriction maps. This result suggests separate paths of evolution of the two genes for stable RNA degradation.  相似文献

The gene encoding K88ab was localized on the 11.6 kbHindIII-HindIII fragment of 74 kb plasmid DNA ofE. coli 7301. The smallest recombinant DNA producing the K88ab antigen was obtained by excision of the 5.15 kbEcoRI-EcoRI fragment from recombinant DNA composed of the 11.6 kb K88ab fragment in the pBR322 vectro. The size of the smallest fragment was 6.5 kb. Expression of the K88ab antigen was controlled by the P1 promoter of the pBR322 vector. Substitution of promoter Ptac for promoter P1 made it possible to achieve expression of the K88ab antigen byE. coli MT. Substitution of promoter PL for promoter P1 failed to achieve expression of the K88 ab antigen in the recipient strains used.  相似文献

The srnB+ gene, promoting stable RNA degradation at 42 C in the presence of rifampin, was cloned by using pBR322 as a vector; it was located on a 1.1-kilobase (kb) EcoRI/BamHI fragment between 1.4 and 2.5 kb of the F plasmid. The region between 93.3 and 4.0 kb of the F plasmid was physically mapped by using restriction endonucleases EcoRI, HindIII, BamHI, PstI, and SmaI, with reference to a standard HindIII site in IS3. An srnB1 mutant was isolated from a chimeric plasmid, pOY54, after treatment of its DNA with hydroxylamine. The srnB1 allele on the F fragment of the mutant plasmid was recessive to the wild-type allele. Thermal elevation of cell cultures to 39 C was high enough to promote RNA degradation in strain YS12 carrying plasmid pOY54.  相似文献

Summary EcoRI fragments of the 94 kilobase mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from young, wild type Podospora anserina were cloned into the EcoRI site of the E. coli plasmid vector pBR325. A complete EcoRI clone bank was developed, containing all 16 of the EcoRI fragments from the native mtDNA. Restriction endonuclease maps for the enzymes SalI, XhoI, BamHI, EcoRI, BglII, and HaeIII were constructed from the analysis of single, double, and triple restriction digests of cloned and native mtDNA. In constructing the maps data were refined by extensive Southern analysis of the native genome hybridized to cloned DNA probes. Restriction maps were analyzed and permitted us to locate the origin of mtDNA derived from senescent cultures.Both the large and small rRNA genes were then localized on these restriction maps using Southern and Northern blot analysis. We have shown the large rRNA locus to lie within a 10.8 kb region of EcoRI fragments E5 and E7, and the small rRNA locus to lie on a 5 kb subfragment of EcoRI fragment E1. The limit of separation between these two loci was determined to be between 6 and 9 kb.Surprisingly, when electrophoresed in agarose-CH3HgOH gels, the large rRNA was found to be 3.8 kb long, 500 bases longer than that from the very closely related Neurospora crassa, making it the largest rRNA yet described.  相似文献

Summary Following shotgun cloning of EcoRI fragments of Bacillus subtilis 168 chromosomal DNA in pBR322 a hybrid plasmid, pUL720, was isolated which complements Escherichia coli K12 mutants defective for argA, B, C, D, E, F/I, carA and carB. Restriction analysis revealed that the insert of pUL720 comprises four EcoRI fragments, of sizes 12.0, 6.0, 5.0 and 0.8 kbp. Evidence was obtained from subcloning, Southern blot hybridisation, enzyme stability studies and transformation of B. subtilis arginine auxotrophs that the 12 kbp EcoRI fragment carries all the arg genes. It proved impossible to subclone the intact fragment in isolation in the multicopy vectors pBR322, pBR325 or pACYC184, and although it could be subcloned in the low copy vector pGV1106, propagation of the hybrid rapidly resulted in the selection of stable derivatives carrying, near one end, an insertion of 1 kbp of DNA originating from the E. coli chromosome. These and other stable derivatives resulting from subcloning the 12 kbp EcoRI fragment have lost only the ability to complement for E. coli argC, and it is suggested that sequences located close to the equivalent of argC are involved in destabilising plasmids bearing the 12 kbp fragment in E. coli in a copy number dependent manner.Abbreviations kop kilobase pairs - OcTase ornithine carbamoyl transferase - CPSase carbamoyl phosphate synthetase  相似文献

Summary Agrobacterium radiobacter strain K84 is used commercially for the biological control of crown gall. It contains the conjugative plasmid pAgK84, which encodes the synthesis of agrocin 84, an antibiotic that inhibits many pathogenic agrobacteria. A breakdown of control is threatened by the transfer of pAgK84 to pathogens, which then become resistant to agrocin 84. A mutant of pAgK84 with a 5.9-kb deletion overlapping the transfer (Tra) region was constructed using recombinant DNA techniques. The BamHI fragment B1 which covers most of the Tra region was cloned in pBR325 and its internal EcoRI fragments D1 and H, which overlap the Tra region, were removed, leaving 3.7 kb and 0.5 kb of pAgK84 on either side of the deletion. The latter was increased to 3.3 kb by adding EcoRI fragment D2 from a BamHI fragment C clone. The modified pBR325 clone was mobilized into Agrobacterium strain NT1 harbouring pAgK84 with a Tn5 insertion just outside the Tra region but covered by the deletion. A Tra+ cointegrate was formed between the Tn5-insertion derivative and the pBR325-based deletion construct by homologous recombination. The cointegrate was transferred by conjugation to a derivative of strain K84 lacking pAgK84, in which a second recombination event generated a stable deletion-mutant by deletion-marker exchange. The resultant new strain of A. radiobacter, designated K1026, shows normal agrocin 84 production. Mating experiments show that the mutant plasmid, designated pAgK1026, is incapable of conjugal transfer at a detectable frequency.  相似文献

Two bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) libraries were constructed from an inbred line derived from a cultivar of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.). Intact nuclei were isolated and embedded in agarose plugs, and high-molecular-weight DNA was subsequently partially digested with BamHI or EcoRI. Ligation of double size-selected DNA fragments with the pECBAC1 vector yielded two libraries containing 23,040 BamHI and 18,432 EcoRI clones. The average BamHI and EcoRI insert sizes were estimated to be 107.0 kb and 100.8 kb, respectively, and BAC clones lacking inserts were 1.3% and 14.5% in the BamHI and EcoRI libraries, respectively. The two libraries together represent approximately 10.8 haploid cucumber genomes. Hybridization with a C0t-1 DNA probe revealed that approximately 36% of BAC clones likely carried repetitive sequence-enriched DNA. The frequencies of BAC clones that carry chloroplast or mitochondrial DNA range from 0.20% to 0.47%. Four sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR), four simple sequence repeat, and an randomly amplified polymorphic DNA marker linked with yield component quantitative trait loci were used either as probes to hybridize high-density colony filters prepared from both libraries or as primers to screen an ordered array of pooled BAC DNA prepared from the BamHI library. Positive BAC clones were identified in predicted numbers, as screening by polymerase chain reaction amplification effectively overcame the problems associated with an overabundance of positives from hybridization with two SCAR markers. The BAC clones identified herein that are linked to the de (determinate habit) and F (gynoecy) locus will be useful for positional cloning of these economically important genes. These BAC libraries will also facilitate physical mapping of the cucumber genome and comparative genome analyses with other plant species.  相似文献

Genomic DNA was prepared from 16 strains of Xanthomonas campestris pv. graminis and Xanthomonas campestris pv. phlei isolated from six species of forage grasses in four countries. The two pathovars could be distinguished clearly by genomic fingerprints generated by EcoRI, BamHI or HindIII digestion. DNA profiles produced by HindIII digestion could differentiate not only between the two pathoars but also among strains within the same pahtovar from different countries. A 1.6 kb EcoRI fragment was cloned from genomic DNA of strain LMG726 and used to detect restriction fragment-length polymorphism among the same strains. EcoRI and BamHI polymorphisms were seen between the two pathovars probed with this 1.6 kb EcoRI fragment (p726EI probe). These polymorphisms appeared to be highly conserved and unique for each pathovar, consistent with previous grouping of the strains based on other criteria.  相似文献

Vector properties of plasmid pNH602, a higher-copy-number deletion mutant of plasmid R6K, were tested by cloning the 6.5 Mg/molBam HI pSa fragment carrying determinants of resistance to four antibiotics in the uniqueBam HI site of pNH602. The resultingin vitro constructed recombinant plasmid pNH606 was found to be stable, conjugative, multicopy (20 copies of pNH606 perE. coli chromosome were estimated) and to ensure the increased expression of different genes responsible for the antibiotic resistance. The pSa fragment inserted in theBam HI site of plasmid pNH602 (located in Tn2660) was proved to be transposable to other replicons. Recombinant plasmid pNH606 was analyzed using restriction enzymesBam HI andEco RI and its physical and genetic map was constructed.  相似文献

Summary A human genomic DNA fragment, p22hom13 (D22S16), was isolated from a chromosome 22-specific library. After elimination of repetitive sequences, a single copy BamHI-EcoRI fragment was subcloned into pTZ18. By using mouse/human somatic cell hybrids and in situ hybridization, the new DNA probe was mapped to chromosome 22q13-qter. Its application in the analysis of the distal part of chromosome 22 and its diagnostic use in translocations are discussed.  相似文献

Summary Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola strain LR719 contains a 150 kilobase pair (kb) plasmid pMC7105, stably integrated into its chromosome. Occasionally, single colony isolates of this strain contain an excision plasmid. Eight unique excision plasmids were selected and characterized by BamHI restriction endonuclease and blot hybridization analyses. These plasmids ranged in size from 35 to 270 kb; the largest contained approximately 130 kb of chromosomal DNA sequences. Restriction maps of pMC7105 were developed to deduce the site of integration and to identify the fragments in which recombination occurred to produce each excision plasmid. The eight excision plasmids were arranged into five classes based on the sites where excision occurs. A 20 kb region of pMC7105, which includes BamHI fragment 9 and portions of adjacent fragments, is present in all excision plasmids and thought to contain the origin of replication. The site of integration on pMC7105 maps within BamHI fragment 8. This fragment shows homology with seven other BamHI fragments of pMC7105 and with five chromosomal fragments identified among the excision plasmids. The data strongly suggest that the integration of pMC7105 may have occurred at a repetitive sequence present on the chromosome and on the plasmid.  相似文献

A genetic and physical map of Escherichia coli plasmid R538-1 was constructed using restriction endonucleases and molecular cloning techniques. R538-1 DNA was cleaved into 12 fragments by endonuclease · R · EcoRI, 6 fragments by endonuclease R · HindIII, and 3 fragments by endonuclease R · BamHI. The order of these fragments was determined by standard restriction fragment mapping techniques. Endo · R · EcoRI, endo · R · HindIII, endo · R · BamHI, and endo · R · PstI fragments obtained from R538-1 and ColE1-derived plasmids (pMB9, ColE1Apr, and pBR322) were ligated in vitro and used to transform E. coli C600. Transformants were selected for antibiotic resistance markers carried by R538-1. Analysis of the R538-1 fragments contained in these hybrid plasmids permitted the construction of a genetic map of the R538-1 plasmid. The genetic map of this plasmid is very similar to that of plasmid R100.  相似文献

Summary The antibiotic resistance plasmid Rldrd19Km-which has spontaneously lost its kanamycin resistance marker, and its derivative pON5300, were analysed using the restriction endonucleases SalI, BamHI, HindIII and EcoRI. The fragment patterns were compared with that of the Rldrd19 and the fragments responsible for kanamycin resistance were found to be missing in Rldrd19Km and pON5300. In these plasmids a 7 Mg/mol EcoRI fragment was observed instead of the D (6.3 Mg/mol) fragment of Rldrd19. Further a new 6 Mg/mol EcoRI restriction fragment was observed in pON5300. Using double digestions it was shown that the new fragment does not carry restriction sites for HindIII, BamHI and SalI endonucleases. The non-homology of the analysed plasmid was proved electron microscopically by heteroduplex techniques. The possibility of amplification in the regulatory region for the expression of R-determinants in pON5300 is discussed.  相似文献

Summary In plant cells a DNA sequence was found which is homologous to the Drosophila per locus. In rape and spinach the homologous sequence occurs in the nuclear but not in the chloroplast genome while in Acetabularia it is found in the chloroplast but not in the nuclear genome. A 1.175 kb EcoRI-SalI fragment of the chloroplast genome of Acetabularia containing the homologous sequence was subcloned into pUC12 and sequenced. The core of the 1.175 kb fragment is a repetitive tandemly arranged sequence of 43 units of the hexamer GGA ACT coding for glycine and threonine.Abbreviations MES N-morpholinoethanesulfonic acid - DTE dithioerythritol - DTT dithiothreitol - nDNA nuclear DNA - ctDNA chloroplast DNA - TEP Tris, EDTA, proteinase K buffer  相似文献

Summary Southern blot analysis of human genomic DNA hybridized with a coding region aldolase A cDNA probe (600 bases) revealed four restriction fragments with EcoRI restriction enzyme: 7.8 kb, 13 kb, 17 kb and >30 kb. By human-hamster hybrid analysis (Southern technique) the principal fragments, 7.8 kb, 13 kb, >30 kb, were localized to chromosomes 10, 16 and 3 respectively. The 17-kb fragment was very weak in intensity; it co-segregated with the >30-kb fragment and is probably localized on chromosome 3 with the >30-kb fragment. Analysis of a second aldolase A labelled probe protected against S1 nuclease digestion by RNAs from different hybrid cells, indicated the presence of aldolase A mRNAs in hybrid cells containing only chromosome 16. Under the stringency conditions used, the EcoRI sequences detected by the coding region aldolase A cDNA probe did not correspond to aldolase B or C. The 7.8-kb and >30-kb EcoRI sequences, localized respectively on chromosomes 10 and 3, correspond to aldolase A pseudogenes, the 13-kb EcoRI sequence localized on chromosome 16 corresponds to the aldolase active gene. The fact that the aldolase A gene and pseudogenes are located on three different chromosomes supports the hypothesis that the pseudogenes originated from aldolase A mRNAs, copied into DNA and integrated in unrelated chromosomal loci.  相似文献

Genomic fragments of Bacillus polymyxa derived from separate and complete digestion by EcoRI, HindIII, and BamHI were ligated into the corresponding sites of pBR322, and the resulting chimeric plasmids were transformed into Escherichia coli. Of 6,000 transformants screened, 1 (pBPX-277) produced a clear halo on Remazol brilliant blue xylan plates. The insert in the pBPX-277 recombinant, identified as an 8.0-kilobase BamHI fragment of B. polymyxa, was subsequently subjected to extensive mapping and a series of subclonings into pUC19. A 2.9-kilobase BamHI-EcoRI subfragment was found to code for xylanase activity. Xylanase activity expressed by E. coli harboring the cloned gene was located primarily in the periplasm and corresponded to one of two distinct xylanases produced by B. polymyxa. Xylanase expression by the cloned gene occurred in the absence of xylan and was reduced by glucose and xylose. Southern blot hybridization with the cloned fragment as a probe against complete genomic digests of the bacilli B. polymyxa, B. circulans, and B. subtilis revealed that the cloned xylanase gene was unique to B. polymyxa. The xylanase expressed by the cloned gene had a molecular weight of approximately 48,000 and an isoelectric point of 4.9.  相似文献

Summary Recombinant plasmids composed of Bacillus subtilis 168 leucine genes and a B. subtilis (natto) plasmid have been constructed in a recombination deficient (recE4) mutant of Bacillus subtilis 168. The process involved EcoRI fragmentation and ligation of a B. subtilis (natto) plasmid and a composite plasmid RSF2124-B · leu in which B. subtilis 168 leucine genes are linked to the R-factor RSF2124. A constructed plasmid (pLS102) was found to be composed of an EcoRI fragment derived from the vector plasmid and two tandemly repeated EcoRI fragments carrying the leucine genes. A derivative plasmid (pLS101 or pLS103) consisting of one molecule each of the EcoRI fragments was obtained by in vivo intramolecular recombination between the repeated leucine gene fragments in pLS102. pLS103 was cleaved once with BamNI, SmaI and HpaI. Insertion of foreign DNA (Escherichia coli plasmid pBR322) into the BamNI site inactivated leuA but not the leuC function which thus can serve as selective marker if the plasmid is used as vector in molecular cloning. The penicillin resistance carried in pBR322 was not functionally expressed in B. subtilis cells. By partial digestion of pLS103 with HindIII followed by ligation with T4-induced ligase, pLS107 was obtained which contained only one EcoRI site. However, insertion of exogenous DNA (pBR322) into this EcoRI site inactivated both leuA and leuC functions.  相似文献

Cloning of human mitochondrial DNA in Escherichia coli   总被引:32,自引:0,他引:32  
In order to determine its nucleotide sequence, human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) purified from term placentae was cloned in Escherichia coli using the plasmid vector pBR322. The products of an mtDNA MboI digestion (23 fragments ranging in size from 2800 to 25 base-pairs (bp)) were ligated with BamHI-cut pBR322. The ampicillin-resistant tetracycline-sensitive colonies obtained upon transformation of E. coli χ1776 were screened by agarose gel electrophoresis of colony lysates, colony hybridization and restriction analysis. All but MboI fragment 2 were obtained in this way. MboI fragments 5 and 8 were each found only once among the 705 clones screened. All other MboI fragments were approximately equally represented in the population of clones except for a slight bias towards smaller fragments. MboI fragment 2 overlaps with the mtDNA BamHI/EcoRI (1.7 kb3) and the 0.9 kb HinIII fragments. These were cloned in similarly restricted pBR322 to provide a set of clones covering most of the mtDNA molecule. Clones representative of each MboI fragment were shown to be complementary to mtDNA by hybridization to Southern blots of mtDNA digests and were thereby partially mapped. Further mapping was obtained by restriction analysis of mtDNA sequentially degraded by exonuclease III. A collection of recombinant clones has thus been obtained using the mtDNA isolated from a single placenta and is now being used to obtain a complete nucleotide sequence of human mtDNA.  相似文献
