Efficient four fragment cloning for the construction of vectors for targeted gene replacement in filamentous fungi 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Rasmus JN Frandsen Jens A Andersson Matilde B Kristensen Henriette Giese 《BMC molecular biology》2008,9(1):70
Background
The rapid increase in whole genome fungal sequence information allows large scale functional analyses of target genes. Efficient transformation methods to obtain site-directed gene replacement, targeted over-expression by promoter replacement, in-frame epitope tagging or fusion of coding sequences with fluorescent markers such as GFP are essential for this process. Construction of vectors for these experiments depends on the directional cloning of two homologous recombination sequences on each side of a selection marker gene. 相似文献32.

In normal pregnancy, hepatic metabolism adaptation occurs with an increase in lipid biosynthesis. Placental shedding of syncytiotrophoblast‐derived extracellular vesicles (STBEVs) into the maternal circulation constitutes a major signalling mechanism between foetus and mother. We investigated whether STBEVs from normal pregnant women might target liver cells in vitro and induce changes in lipid synthesis. This study was performed at the Nuffield Department of Women''s & Reproductive Health, Oxford, UK. STBEVs were obtained by dual‐lobe placental perfusion from 11 normal pregnancies at term. Medium/large and small STBEVs were collected by ultracentrifugation at 10,000g and 150,000g, respectively. STBEVs were analysed by Western blot analysis and flow cytometry for co‐expression of apolipoprotein‐E (apoE) and placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP). The uptake of STBEVs by liver cells and the effect on lipid metabolism was evaluated using a hepatocarcinoma cell line (HepG2 cells). Data were analysed by one‐way ANOVA and Student''s t test. We demonstrated that: (a) STBEVs carry apoE; (b) HepG2 cells take up STBEVs through an apoE‐LDL receptor interaction; (c) STBEV incorporation into HepG2 cells resulted in (i) increased cholesterol release (ELISA); (ii) increased expression of the genes SQLE and FDPS (microarray) involved in cholesterol biosynthesis; (iii) downregulation of the CLOCK gene (microarray and PCR), involved in the circadian negative control of lipid synthesis in liver cells. In conclusion, the placenta may orchestrate the metabolic adaptation of the maternal liver through release of apoE‐positive STBEVs, by increasing lipid synthesis in a circadian‐independent fashion, meeting the nutritional needs of the growing foetus. 相似文献

Different sensitivity to trypsin of the human platelet plasma and intracellular membrane Ca2+ pumps 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The Ca2+ pumps associated with human platelet plasma and intracellular membranes have been further characterized by their sensitivity to trypsin. (a) Tryptic degradation of the Ca2+-ATPases has been followed by immunoblotting. It resulted in fragmentation into peptides of 80, 55, 35, and 24 kDa for both enzymes. Subcomplete hydrolysis obtained with a ratio of trypsin/membrane protein of 0.05-0.1 for the two Ca2+ pumps resulted in the total disappearance of the 100-, 80-, and 35-kDa fragments. However, maximum degradation was reached within 1 min for the intracellular enzyme but needed 5 min of incubation for the plasma membrane enzyme. (b) This effect of trypsin has been correlated with its effect on both the Ca2+-ATPase activities. The plasma membrane enzyme showed a maximum inhibition of 50-60% which was obtained using a trypsin/protein ratio of 0.1 and 5 min of incubation. A much higher trypsin sensitivity was observed for the intracellular enzyme because the maximum inhibition reached 80% after only 1 min of incubation. (c) Finally, the two Ca2+ transport systems studied showed different trypsin reactivities; the Ca2+ uptake by the plasma membrane vesicles was inhibited by 20-25%, and this maximum inhibition was observed after 5 min of incubation with trypsin. In contrast, the Ca2+ transport associated with the intracellular membrane vesicles was difficult to detect after trypsin treatment. Taken together, the results show that the two Ca2+ pumps can be distinguished by their trypsin sensitivity. 相似文献

Due to a growing world population and increasing welfare, energy demand worldwide is increasing. To meet the increasing energy demand in a sustainable way, new technologies are needed. The Plant-Microbial Fuel Cell (P-MFC) is a technology that could produce sustainable bio-electricity and help meeting the increasing energy demand. Power output of the P-MFC, however, needs to be increased to make it attractive as a renewable and sustainable energy source. To increase power output of the P-MFC internal resistances need to be reduced. With a flat-plate P-MFC design we tried to minimize internal resistances compared to the previously used tubular P-MFC design. With the flat-plate design current and power density per geometric planting area were increased (from 0.15 A/m2 to 1.6 A/m2 and from 0.22 W/m2 to and 0.44 W/m2)as were current and power output per volume (from 7.5 A/m3 to 122 A/m3 and from 1.3 W/m3 to 5.8 W/m3). Internal resistances times volume were decreased, even though internal resistances times membrane surface area were not. Since the membrane in the flat-plate design is placed vertically, membrane surface area per geometric planting area is increased, which allows for lower internal resistances times volume while not decreasing internal resistances times membrane surface area. Anode was split into three different sections on different depths of the system, allowing to calculate internal resistances on different depths. Most electricity was produced where internal resistances were lowest and where most roots were present; in the top section of the system. By measuring electricity production on different depths in the system, electricity production could be linked to root growth. This link offers opportunities for material-reduction in new designs. Concurrent reduction in material use and increase in power output brings the P-MFC a step closer to usable energy density and economic feasibility. 相似文献

(Ca2+ + Mg2+)-dependent ATPase mRNA from smooth muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum differs from that in cardiac and fast skeletal muscles 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
We have investigated some characteristics of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-dependent ATPase (Ca2+-ATPase) mRNA from smooth muscle using specific cDNA probes isolated from a rat heart cDNA library. RNA blot analysis has shown that the Ca2+-ATPase mRNA expressed in smooth muscle is identical in size to the cardiac mRNA but differs from that of fast skeletal muscle. S1 nuclease mapping has moreover shown that the cardiac and smooth muscle isoforms possess different 3'-end sequences. These results indicate that a distinct sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase mRNA is present in smooth muscle. 相似文献

The immunoglobulin kappa light-chain constant region gene (C kappa) has
been cloned and sequenced from five wild mouse species. Analysis of these
data has permitted an assessment of single-copy gene evolution during a
limited time period as defined by the genus Mus. Sequence conservation was
found to be as high (or higher) in the 5' and enhancer regions as in the
coding region. The pattern of substitutions throughout these genes suggests
that parallel evolution has occurred frequently and that substitutions at
replacement sites have not decreased significantly, owing to saturation
during this period of approximately 10 Myr. Phylogenetic relationships have
been determined among these wild species as well as among members of the
genus Rattus.

Macroautophagy (MA) regulates cellular quality control and energy balance. For example, loss of MA in aP2‐positive adipocytes converts white adipose tissue (WAT) into brown adipose tissue (BAT)‐like, enhancing BAT function and thereby insulin sensitivity. However, whether MA regulates early BAT development is unknown. We report that deleting Atg7 in myogenic Myf5+ progenitors inhibits MA in Myf5‐cell‐derived BAT and muscle. Knock out (KO) mice have defective BAT differentiation and function. Surprisingly, their body temperature is higher due to WAT lipolysis‐driven increases in fatty acid oxidation in ‘Beige’ cells in inguinal WAT, BAT and muscle. KO mice also present impaired muscle differentiation, reduced muscle mass and glucose intolerance. Our studies show that ATG7 in Myf5+ progenitors is required to maintain energy and glucose homeostasis through effects on BAT and muscle development. Decreased MA in myogenic progenitors with age and/or overnutrition might contribute to the metabolic defects and sarcopenia observed in these conditions. 相似文献
