An S1-nuclease sensitive site exists within supercoiled plasmids containing the 5'-flanking sequences of the human beta-globin gene. This site is located approximately 540 base pairs upstream from the start of the gene within a region of 52 alternating purine-pyrimidine residues which has the potential to adopt either cruciform structures or Z-form DNA. This site is protected from specific cleavage by S1-nuclease by the high-mobility-group chromosomal proteins HMG1 and 2, which may be specifically acting to protect short sequences of single-stranded DNA. 相似文献

HMG proteins are abundant chromosomal non-histone proteins. It has been suggested that the HMG proteins may play an important role in the structure and function of chromatin. In the present study, the binding of HMG proteins (HMG1/2 and HMG14/17) to the core DNA sequence of DNaseI hypersensitive site 2 (HS2core DNA sequence, -10681--10970 bp) in the locus control region (LCR) of the human b-like globin gene cluster has been examined by using both the in vitro nucleosome reconstitution and the gel mobility shift assays. Here we show that HMG1/2 can bind to the naked HS2core DNA sequence, however, HMG14/17 cannot. Using the in vitro nucleosome reconstitution we demonstrate that HMG14/17 can bind to the HS2core DNA sequence which is assembled into nucleosomes with the core histone octamer transferred from chicken erythrocytes. In contrast, HMG1/2 cannot bind to the nucleosomes reconstituted in vitro with the HS2core DNA sequence. These results indicate that the binding patterns between HMG proteins and the HS2core DNA sequence which exists in different states (the naked DNA or the in vitro reconstituted nucleosomal DNA) are quite different. We speculate that HMG proteins might play a critical role in the regulation of the human β-like globin gene's expression. 相似文献

DNA sequence-specific binding proteins eluted from chicken erythrocyte and thymus nuclei, and fractionated as described by Emerson and Felsenfeld (19), have been investigated by filter binding and footprint analyses. The erythrocyte nuclear protein fraction specifically binds to at least two sites within the 5' flanking chromatin hypersensitive site of the chicken beta A-globin gene, and to a site 5' to the human beta-globin gene. The major chicken beta A globin gene binding site [G)18CGGGTGG) and the human beta-globin gene binding site [TA)6(T)8C(T)4) occur at or near sequences which are hypersensitive to S1 nuclease cleavage in supercoiled plasmids. Downstream, the second chicken beta A-globin gene binding site includes the beta-globin gene CACCC consensus sequence. Filter binding studies also show other sequence specific binding activities to human N-ras and human (but not chicken) c-myc gene sequences. 相似文献

Cloning and amplification of rabbit alpha- and beta-globin gene sequences into Escherichia coli plasmids. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
cDNA, synthesized from rabbit globin mRNA, was used in a self-priming reaction, with avian myeloblastosis virus DNA polymerase, for the synthesis of double-stranded DNA. Globin DNA ranging from about 400 to 650 base pairs was elongated with dG tails using deoxypolynucleotide transferase and was annealed to linear Escherichia coli plasmic pCR1, elongated with dC tails. Preparation of the plasmid DNA involved an enzymatic reconstruction of one EcoRI-specific site on each side of the molecule. After transformation of E. coli cells to kanamycin resistance with the hybrid molecules, bacterial clones harboring recombinant plasmids were studied for the presence of globin-specific DNA. Plasmids containing either alpha or beta rabbit globin gene sequences were obtained. There was a 4-fold excess of recombinant plasmids containing beta-globin sequences over those with alpha-globin DNA. The longest beta-globin sequences found in plasmids were about 550 to 600 pairs long, and correspond therefore to the entire beta-globin structural gene and to some of the untranslated regions. The alpha-globin sequences were 400 to 450 base pairs long. Treatment of clone pCR1betarG 19 with EcoRI endonuclease released two DNA fragments (410 and 210 base pairs) resulting from cleavage at two reconstructed external EcoRI sites and at one internal EcoRI site within the rabbit globin gene. The same treatment of pCR1alpharG 11 released one fragment. In most other recombinant plasmids studied however, no fragment was released by EcoRI digestion. 相似文献

Hierarchy of binding sites for chromosomal proteins HMG 1 and 2 in supercoiled deoxyribonucleic acid 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The interaction of chromosomal proteins HMG 1 and 2 with various DNA structures has been examined with plasmid pPst-0.9, which contains DNA sequences that can form the Z-DNA conformation and palindromic sequences that can form cruciform structures. Direct binding and competition experiments with 32P-labeled plasmid indicated that proteins HMG 1 and 2 preferentially bind to supercoiled form I DNA as compared to double-stranded linear DNA. The preferential binding to form I is due to the presence of single-stranded regions in this DNA. The binding of HMG 1 and 2 to the form I plasmid results in inhibition of S1 nuclease digestion in a selective manner. The B-Z junction is preferentially protected as compared to the cruciform, which in turn is more protected than other minor S1-sensitive structures present in pPst-0.9. Our results indicate that the binding of HMG 1 and 2 proteins to DNA is not random in that HMG 1 and 2 can distinguish between various S1 nuclease sensitive sites in the plasmid. The existence of a hierarchy of DNA binding sites for these proteins suggests that they can selectively affect the structure of distinct regions in the genome. 相似文献

Cloning and amplified expression in Streptomyces lividans of the gene encoding the extracellular beta-lactamase from Streptomyces cacaoi 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

A 19 kb SphI DNA fragment containing the gene for the extracellular active-site serine beta-lactamase of Streptomyces cacaoi KCC-SO352 was cloned in Streptomyces lividans TK24 using the high-copy-number plasmid pIJ702 as vector. A 30-fold higher yield of beta-lactamase was obtained from S. lividans strain ML1, carrying the recombinant plasmid pDML51, than from S. cacaoi grown under optimal production conditions. In all respects (molecular mass, isoelectric point, kinetics of inhibition by beta-iodopenicillanate) the overproduced S. lividans ML1 beta-lactamase was identical to the original S. cacaoi enzyme. A considerable reduction of beta-lactamase production was caused by elimination of a 12.8 kb portion of the 19 kb DNA fragment by cleavage at an internal SphI site located more than 3 kb upstream of the beta-lactamase structural gene. The beta-lactamase gene was located within a 1.8 NcoI-BclI fragment but when this fragment was cloned in S. lividans pIJ702, the resulting strain produced hardly any more beta-lactamase than the original S. cacaoi. 相似文献

Restriction patterns of adult chicken globin genes at early and late stages of embryonic development
Globin mRNA isolated from anemic chicken was transcribed into cDNA and integrated into the Pst I cleavage site of plasmid pBR 322. After cloning in E. coli strain HB 101 and colony hybridization with125I-labelled globin mRNA the plasmids of individual clones were characterized by hybrid arrested cell-free translation. Thus we could isolate clones containing or globin chain nucleotide sequences.DNA was isolated from chicken blastoderms incubated for 18–20 h and from 11 d chicken embryos. A comparison of the restriction maps of the DNA from the two developmental stages with labelled nick translated plasmids and labelled cDNA did not indicate any globin gene rearrangements between these two stages of embryonic development. We conclude, that the adult chicken globin genes show a constant genomic organization during embryonic development. However, the restriction patterns of the globin gene family of the chicken strain investigated revealed some differences after 2 generations of propagation. 相似文献

Abstract:Sox genes have diverse roles in developing processes,it was inferred there may be one intron in the HMG box by analyzing the genomic DNA sequence of the paramisgurnus dabryanus Sox8 gene.RT-PCR was used to verify the intron and its splicing site.First strand of the cDNA reverse-transcribed from liver RNA was amplified using the primers flanking the HMG box.RT-PCR products were cloned into the pUC18 plasmid and sequenced.The eomparison between the cDNA and genomic DNA sequence revealed the splicing site of the intron existing in the HMG-box of the paramisgurnus dabryanus Sox8 gene.We also compared the splicing site of the intron in the HMG-box of Sox8 gene between paramisgurnus dabryanus and human.These results suggest that the splicing site in the HMG-box of Sox8 gene was conserved. 相似文献

The Eco RI fragment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA isolated from human blood plasma Dane particles were inserted into plasmid pUC8 Eco RI site and transformed into E. coli JM103 host. Two recombinants pTWL1 and pTWL2 were found to carry 3.2 kbp fragment and proved to have HBV genome by Southern hybridization method. The 1.4 kbp Bam HI fragment which carried the hepatitis B viral surface antigen (HBsAg) gene, obtained via Bam HI digestion of Dane particles DNA which was made fully double stranded by endogenous DNA polymerase reaction, was also inserted into plasmid pUC8 Bam HI site. Four recombinant clones, pTWS1, pTWS2, pTWS3, and pTWS4 were found. Only one of the clones pTWS1 carried the HBsAg gene in a correct orientation with respect to the lac promoter sequence. The physical mapping of HBV DNA was performed with several restriction endonucleases. Our results indicated that the HBV DNA insert contains unique XbaI and HpaI cleavage sites and lacks the cleavage sites for the HindIII, SmaI, KpnI, SalI, and SstI endonucleases. The locations of Bam HI, BglII, and HincII endonucleases cleavage sites within the cloned HBV DNA of the pTWL1 plasmid were similar to that HBV DNA of adw and adw2 subtypes. 相似文献

In rabbit reticulocyte lysates the addition of exogenous 2-5A leads after 10-20 minutes to the inhibition of protein synthesis. This inhibition can be blocked by rat antiserum to 2-5A. In intact ribosomes the ribosomal RNA is cleaved after 2-5A addition, but this cleavage is not in correlation with the protein synthesis shutoff. Ribosomal 5S RNA and 5,8S RNA are not cleaved even after several hours of incubation with 2-5A. The degradation of polysome associated mRNA correlates with the protein synthesis inhibition as revealed by Northern blot hybridization of globin mRNA with 32P-labelled p beta G plasmid. The addition of 2-5A antiserum to the rabbit reticulocyte lysate also inhibits the degradation of polysome bound globin mRNA. 相似文献

Deletion and insertion mutants in the structural gene for ribosomal protein S1 from Escherichia coli 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Mutants have been constructed by deleting regions of the gene rpsA for ribosomal protein S1, which had been cloned in plasmid pACYC184. The mutant genes were analyzed for their ability to complement an S1 amber mutant containing a temperature-sensitive suppressor. Another series of mutants was constructed using the tac promoter plasmid pKK223-3, and the effect of the mutant proteins was analyzed in a strain wild type for rpsA. The gene products of all mutants were identified by the immunoblotting technique. Plasmids with a mutant rpsA gene which do not or only poorly complement the S1 amber mutation cause drastic growth reduction, whereas the overall protein synthesis is affected to different extents depending on the site of the deletion. Mutants which express S1 fragments comprising at least the NH2-terminal 100 amino acids stimulate or inhibit the synthesis of certain cellular proteins. The amount of chromosomal coded S1 was reduced by each mutant plasmid. Our data suggest that S1 has a general regulatory role during protein biosynthesis. 相似文献
