A set of six cloning vectors, pUR 278, 288, 289, 290, 291, 292 is presented. These vectors have the cloning sites, BamHI, SalI, PstI, XbaI and HindIII, in all frames at the 3' end of the lacZ gene. Insertion of cDNA in the proper cloning sites leads to a fusion protein of active beta-galactosidase and the peptide encoded by the cDNA. A simple immunoenzymatic assay can be used to identify clones in such a cDNA library. 相似文献

To facilitate the establishment of recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (rCHO) cell lines with dihydrofolate reductase (dhfr)-mediated gene amplification, a primary selection method based on morphology of parental CHO clones has been developed. Morphology of parental clones that were made by transfecting various plasmids encoding thrombopoietin (TPO) and its analogs and humanized antibodies into dhfr-deficient (dhfr-) CHO cells was not uniform. Morphology of many parental clones exhibiting high-level expression of the introduced gene was similar to that of nontransfected dhfr- CHO cells. On the other hand, most parental clones with low-level expression experienced noticeable morphological changes such as bipolar fibroblast-like morphology. In case of selection of parental clones with TPO expression level higher than 200 ng/mL, morphological selection improved selection efficiency by 3.5-fold compared with random selection. Furthermore, when subjected to methotrexate for gene amplification, parental clones that were selected based on morphology elevated the expression level as much as those that were selected randomly. Taken together, morphological selection of parental clones can facilitate the establishment of rCHO cell lines expressing recombinant proteins. 相似文献

We report a simple in vivo technique for introducing an antibiotic resistance marker into phage lambda. This technique could be used for direct selection of lysogens harboring recombinant phages from the Kohara lambda bank (a collection of ordered lambda clones carrying Escherichia coli DNA segments). The two-step method uses homologous recombination and lambda DNA packaging to replace the nonessential lambda DNA lying between the lysis genes and the right cohesive (cos) end with the neomycin phosphotransferase (npt) gene from Tn903. This occurs during lytic growth of the phage on a plasmid-containing host strain. Neomycin-resistant (npt+) recombinant phages are then selected from the lysates containing the progeny phage by transduction of a polA1 lambda lysogenic host strain to neomycin resistance. We have tested this method with two different Kohara lambda phage clones; in both cases, neomycin resistance cotransduced with the auxotrophic marker carried by the lambda clone, indicating complete genetic linkage. Linkage was verified by restriction mapping of purified DNA from a recombinant phage clone. We also demonstrate that insertion of the npt+ recombinant phages into the lambda prophage can be readily distinguished from insertion into bacterial chromosomal sequences. 相似文献

Complementary DNA clones specific for phospholamban have been isolated from a canine cardiac cDNA library. The amino acid sequence deduced from the cDNA sequence showed that phospholamban consisted of 52 amino acid residues and was synthesized without an amino-terminal signal sequence. The RNA blot analysis revealed that phospholamban mRNAs were represented by two main species of approximately 1.2kb and approximately 2.8kb. These mRNAs appeared to differ primarily in the length of the 3' untranslated region. 相似文献

Recombinant DNA techniques allow any parasite gene to be isolated, propagated and analysed in great detail. The techniques are now well known and widely used in research on parasite diagnosis, vaccine development and identification of chemotherapeutic targets. There are difficulties, for example in analysing carbohydrate antigens, and in selecting which genes merit the intensive investigation required. In this article john Kelly and Mark Blaxter discuss two simple procedures that allow recombinant clones to be characterized rapidly on the basis of both the parasite DNA sequences that they carry and the parasite antigens that they produce. They take examples from work on antigens of Leishmania donovani. 相似文献

Summary A genetic procedure for selection of specific clones, by homologous recombination between clones from a gene clonotheque and sequences cloned into a plasmid, was developed. Resulting clones are isolated in transduction experiments by plating infected Escherichia coli cells under conditions selecting for the antibiotic resistance marker carried by the plasmid. The feasibility of the method was demonstrated in a model test system as well as by isolation of -interferon-specific sequences from the human gene clonotheque. 相似文献

Supernatants collected after primary or secondary stimulation of spleen cells contain different arrays of lymphokines. Primary supernatants from spleen cells stimulated with Con A or allogeneic spleen cells (MLC-SF) contain IL-2 but little IL-4 or IGN-gamma; in contrast, secondary MLC-SF contains IL-2 as well as substantial IL-4 and IFN-gamma. Our laboratory previously had always used secondary MLC-SF for cloning T cells, and had routinely obtained TH1 helper T lymphocyte clones. In the present study, when primary Con A-SF was used as source of growth factors, TH2 and not TH1 clones were preferentially derived. Considering the possibility that IFN-gamma may be one important factor in determining whether TH1 or TH2 clones are preferentially obtained, clone derivation was then performed either in the presence of rIL-2 or rIL-2 plus rIFN-gamma. The majority of clones derived using rIL-2 alone were TH2 cells, whereas the majority of clones derived using rIL-2 plus rIFN-gamma were TH1 cells. Using either procedure, some clones were obtained that produced IL-2, IL-4, and IFN-gamma. These data are consistent with our previous observations that IFN-gamma inhibits the proliferation of TH2 but not TH1 clones, and suggest that the presence of IFN-gamma during an immune response would result in the preferential expansion of helper T lymphocytes of the TH1 phenotype. Our procedure for the differential selection of TH1 and TH2 clones reactive with the same Ag should be useful for designing in vitro systems for studying the function of these cell subsets in specific immune responses. 相似文献

We have used polymerase chain reaction to accelerate our analysis of recombinant lambda-cDNA clones. We have amplified the inserts of lambda gt10 or lambda gt11 recombinants starting with bacteriophage in cored plaques or isolated DNA. The amplifications made with simple or complex oligonucleotide primers have allowed convenient sizing, subcloning and translation of the phage inserts into protein. 相似文献

A scale-flexible and cost-efective protocol for plasmid preparation is described to cover miniprep and midiprep scale work in a microcentriguge format for analysis of recombinant clones. this protocol relies on a modified alkaline lysis of Escherichia coli cells and subsequent purification of plasmid DNA with no organic extraction and alcohol precipitation. It can process up to 20 mL of E. coli cells carrying 3–10 kbp plasmid vectors in <10 min. Flexprep delivers sufficient yield and purity of plasmid DNA for routine applications including restriction enzyme digestion and fluorescent automated sequencing. 相似文献

Construction of synthetic genes is today the most elegant way to optimize the heterologous expression of a recombinant protein. However, the selection of positive clones that incorporate the correct synthetic DNA fragments is a bottleneck as current methods of gene synthesis introduce 3.5 nucleotide deletions per kb. Furthermore, even when all predictable optimizations for protein production have been introduced into the synthetic gene, production of the protein is often disappointing: protein is produced in too low amounts or end up in inclusion bodies. We propose a strategy to overcome these two problems simultaneously by cloning the synthetic gene upstream of a reporter gene. This permits the selection of clones devoid of frame-shift mutations. In addition, beside nucleotide deletion, an average of three non-neutral mutations per kb are introduced during gene synthesis. Using a reporter protein downstream of the synthetic gene, allows the selection of clones with random mutations improving the expression or the folding of the protein of interest. The problem of errors found in synthetic genes is then turned into an advantage since it provides polymorphism useful for molecular evolution. The use of synthetic genes appears as an alternative to the error-prone PCR strategy to generate the variations necessary in protein engineering experiments. 相似文献

A general method for constructing and selecting recombinant vaccinia viruses with insertions, deletions, or mutations in any gene that is similar in principle to one originally devised for Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. Scherer and R. W. Davis, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 76:4951-4955, 1979) is described. The selectable marker used, Escherichia coli guanine phosphoribosyltransferase, is not retained within the final recombinant virus, and hence, this procedure may be used serially to introduce several foreign genes or to make multiple site-directed mutations. 相似文献

Summary Microgametophytic selection was investigated using two ecologically diverse autotetraploid clones of alfalfa. Several selection pressures (drying, aging, freezing, and high and low temperatures) were applied to microgametophytes at three stages of the life cycle, 1) during microsporogenesis, 2) post-anthesis, and 3) pollen tube growth. Pollen aging produced a progeny population with a greater mean plant size and a lower coefficient of variation than the control progeny. High temperature (29.5 °C) applied both during microsporogenesis and pollen tube growth resulted in progeny populations which were significantly taller and, in one case, had a larger leaf number than the control populations. In contrast, air dried pollen resulted in a progeny population which had significantly smaller character means and larger coefficients of variation than the control population. Also, low temperature (15 °C) during pollen tube growth yielded progeny with reduced branch number and a larger coefficient of variation than the control progeny. In cases where progeny derived from selected microgametophytes were found to differ from the control offspring, corresponding shifts in the reciprocal cross were not observed. For the temperature stress treatments, the lack of reciprocal differences may be related to the different temperature adaptations of the two ecotypes. These results suggest that microgametophytic selection can be effective in shifting the mean of the progeny generation; however, the results obtained will vary depending upon the selection pressure, stage of selection, and the parents used. 相似文献

Summary Four insect cell lines were used to isolate two recombinant baculoviruses which had theβ-galactosidase (β-gal) gene for colorimetric assay purposes. Plaque assays were performed using twoTrichoplusia ni cell lines: BTI-TN-5B1-4 and TN-368, and twoSpodoptera frugiperda cell lines: IPLB-SF-21AE and SF9. The number of plaques (occlusion positive and blueβ-gal+ recombinants) formed in theTrichoplusia cells was higher than in theSpodoptera cells. The appearance ofAutographa californica NPV polyhedra was also faster in theT. ni cell lines. The effect of cell passage on the plaque formation proved to be critical when two different passages of the SF9
cells were tested. The higher passage produced a lower viral titration. The size and time of appearance of the plaques was
also different. 相似文献
