Genetic instability in Streptomyces species often involves large deletions sometimes accompanied by DNA amplification. Two such systems in Streptomyces lividans 66 involve the production of mutants sensitive to chloramphenicol and the production of mutants resistant to the galactose analogue 2-deoxygalactose, respectively. Overlapping cosmids were isolated that span the ca. 1 Mb region between the two amplifiable regions. The structure of the region was confirmed by restriction mapping using the rarely cutting enzymes AseI, BfrI and DraI and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. The region contains a non-clonable gap flanked by inverted repeats; the structure is consistent with the presence of a physical gap, i.e. a linear chromosome. 相似文献

Cathepsin L deficiency as molecular defect of furless: hyperproliferation of keratinocytes and pertubation of hair follicle cycling. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Lysosomal cysteine proteinases of the papain family are involved in lysosomal bulk proteolysis, major histocompatibility complex class II mediated antigen presentation, prohormone processing, and extracellular matrix remodeling. Cathepsin L (CTSL) is a ubiquitously expressed major representative of the papain-like family of cysteine proteinases. To investigate CTSL in vivo functions, the gene was inactivated by gene targeting in embryonic stem cells. CTSL-deficient mice develop periodic hair loss and epidermal hyperplasia, acanthosis, and hyperkeratosis. The hair loss is due to alterations of hair follicle morphogenesis and cycling, dilatation of hair follicle canals, and disturbed club hair formation. Hyperproliferation of hair follicle epithelial cells and basal epidermal keratinocytes-both of ectodermal origin-are the primary characteristics underlying the mutant phenotype. Pathological inflammatory responses have been excluded as a putative cause of the skin and hair disorder. The phenotype of CTSL-deficient mice is reminiscent of the spontaneous mouse mutant furless (fs). Analyses of the ctsl gene of fs mice revealed a G149R mutation inactivating the proteinase activity. CTSL is the first lysosomal proteinase shown to be essential for epidermal homeostasis and regular hair follicle morphogenesis and cycling. 相似文献

Base excision repair of oxidized DNA in human cells is initiated by several DNA glycosylases with overlapping substrate specificity. The human endonuclease VIII homologue NEIL1 removes a broad spectrum of oxidized pyrimidine and purine lesions. In this study of NEIL1 we have identified several key residues, located in three loops lining the DNA binding cavity, important for lesion recognition and DNA glycosylase/AP lyase activity for oxidized bases in double-stranded and single-stranded DNA. Single-turnover kinetics of NEIL1 revealed that removal of 5-hydroxycytosine (5-OHC) and 5-hydroxyuracil (5-OHU) is ~25 and ~10-fold faster in duplex DNA compared to single-stranded DNA, respectively, and also faster than removal of dihydrothymine (DHT) and dihydrouracil (DHU), both in double-stranded and single-stranded DNA. NEIL1 excised 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) only from double-stranded DNA and analysis of site-specific mutants revealed that Met81, Arg119 and Phe120 are essential for removal of 8-oxoG. Further, several arginine and histidine residues located in the loop connecting the two β-strands forming the zincless finger motif and projecting into the DNA major groove, were shown to be imperative for lesion processing for both single- and double-stranded substrates. Trapping experiments of active site mutants revealed that the N-terminal Pro2 and Lys54 can alternate to form a Schiff-base complex between the protein and DNA. Hence, both Pro2 and Lys54 are involved in the AP lyase activity. While wildtype NEIL1 activity almost exclusively generated a δ-elimination product when processing single-stranded substrates, substitution of Lys54 changed this in favor of a β-elimination product. These results suggest that Pro2 and Lys54 are both essential for the concerted action of the β,δ-elimination in NEIL1. 相似文献

Thirty-two 2-deoxygalactose-resistant mutants with DNA amplifications were isolated from Streptomyces lividans 66 strains carrying plasmid pMT664, which carries an agarase gene (dagA) and IS466. Thirty-one of the mutants carried amplified DNA sequences from a 70 kb region about 300 kb from one end of the linear chromosome in this species. In 28 of the mutants, all the wild-type sequences between the amplified region and the start of the 30 kb inverted repeat that forms the chromosome end were deleted. Thus, there appeared to be loss of one chromosome end and its replacement by the DNA amplification. In some mutants there amplification of a previously characterised 5.7 kb sequence that lies about 600 kb from the other chromosome end was also noted. 相似文献
