Defective transducing phages carrying aroG, the structural gene for phenylalanine (phe)-inhibitable phospho-2-keto-heptonate aldolase (EC 4.1.2.15; previously known as 3-deoxy-D-arabinoheptulosonate-7-phosphate synthetase[phe]), have been isolated, and DNA from two of these phages has been used to construct a restriction map of the region from att lambda to aroG. A 7.6-kb PstI-HindIII fragment from one of these phages was cloned into pBR322 and shown to contain aroG. The location of aroG within the 7.6 kb was established by subcloning and Tn3 transpositional mutagenesis. A fragment carrying the aroG promoter and operator has been cloned into a high copy number promoter-cloning vector (pMC489), and the resulting aroGpo-LacZ' (alpha) fusion subcloned in a low copy number vector. Strains with this fusion on the low copy number vector exhibit negative regulation of beta-galactosidase expression by both phenylalanine and tryptophan and positive regulation by tyrosine in a tyrR+ background. 相似文献

The pyr4 gene of Neurospora crassa, which codes for orotidine-5'-phosphate decarboxylase, is capable of transforming an Aspergillus nidulans pyrG mutant by chromosomal integration, despite low homology between the transforming DNA and the recipient genome. Integration of pFB6, a plasmid carrying pyr4 and capable of replication in Escherichia coli, was not observed at the pyrG locus. The efficiency of transformation was considerably enhanced (50-100 fold) by inclusion in the transforming vector of a 3.5-kb A.nidulans chromosomal sequence, ans1. Although this sequence was isolated on the basis of replicating activity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, there was no evidence for such activity in A.nidulans. Part of the ans1 fragment appears to be reiterated in the A.nidulans genome, though it is not yet clear whether this is directly responsible for the high transformation frequency. The efficiency of transformation of A.nidulans by plasmids bearing ans1, using an improved protocol, was approx. 5 X 10(3) stable transformants per microgram of plasmid DNA. 相似文献

The araBAD operon of Salmonella typhimurium LT2. I. Nucleotide sequence of araB and primary structure of its product, ribulokinase 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Hybrid plasmids containing the araBAD operon of Salmonella typhimurium LT2 were characterized by Southern blot and genetic analyses. The nucleotide sequence of araB was determined. The araB gene product, ribulokinase (EC 2.7.1.16), was purified and the results of amino acid composition analysis and partial amino acid sequence are in agreement with predictions from the DNA sequence. Ribulokinase is 569 amino acid residues long and has a calculated Mr of 61 793. Ribulokinase shares significant homology with xylulose kinase from Escherichia coli. Codon usage in the araB gene does not favor those codons which have intermediate codon-anticodon binding energy. 相似文献

Deletions and additions of rRNA gene sets in Bacillus subtilis were observed by Southern hybridizations using cloned radiolabeled rDNA sequences. Of the ten rRNA gene sets found in B. subtilis 168M or NCTC3610, one was deleted in strains possessing the leuB1, ilvC1, argA2 and pheA1 mutations. Among EcoRI restriction fragments of genomic DNA products, a 2.9-kb 23S rRNA homolog was missing. In HindIII digest, both 5.5- and 5.1-kb hybrid bands were lost with 16S and 23S probes, respectively. Similarly, genomic DNAs digested with SmaI showed the absence of both 2.1- and 2.0-kb fragments that hybridized to 16S and 5S sequences, respectively, in wild-type genomes. In contrast, B. subtilis strain 166 and its derivatives displayed a gain of a 3.3-kb HindIII fragment homologous to 16S rRNA. Transforming the ilvC1 and leuB1 mutations into new genetic backgrounds revealed in some clones the concomitant introduction of the ribosomal defect. Transformations with the slightly heterologous donor DNA from strain W23 yielded some Leu+ and Arg+ transformants with altered hybridization patterns when probed with cloned sequences. We propose that the deletion of the rRNA operon occurred in the ilv-leu gene cluster of the B. subtilis genome as a result of unequal recombination between redundant sequences. 相似文献

The Streptomyces plasmid SCP2*: its functional analysis and development into useful cloning vectors 总被引:43,自引:0,他引:43
Detailed restriction maps of the plasmid SCP2* and its deletion derivative pSCP103 were constructed. DNA fragments carrying hygromycin (Hyg), thiostrepton (Thio) or viomycin-resistance (VioR) determinants were inserted into pSCP103, and various segments were deleted from the resulting plasmids. Changes in plasmid phenotypes associated with these insertions and deletions allowed the localisation and characterisation of plasmid replication, stability, transfer and fertility functions. Several useful cloning vectors were constructed. They are able to maintain large (greater than 30 kb) DNA inserts, with stable inheritance at a low copy number (1-2 per chromosome) and without structural rearrangements, in Streptomyces hosts. The vectors have a broad host range in the genus Streptomyces. One of them (pIJ903) is a shuttle vector for Streptomyces and Escherichia coli. 相似文献

Transformation of Kluyveromyces lactis with the kanamycin (G418) resistance gene of Tn903 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Direct selection of Kluyveromyces lactis resistant to the antibiotic G418 following transformation with the kanamycin resistance gene of Tn903 required the development of a procedure for producing high yields of viable spheroplasts and for the isolation of autonomous replication sequences (ARS). To obtain high yields of viable spheroplasts, cells were treated with (1) a thiol-reducing agent (L-cysteine), and (2) a high concentration of an osmotic stabilizer, 1.5 M sorbitol. Several ARS-containing plasmids were selected from a K. lactis recombinant DNA library in K. lactis and in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Two of four ARS clones selected in K. lactis promoted transformation frequencies of 5-10 X 10(2) G418-resistant cells/micrograms of plasmid DNA. This frequency of transformation was at least twice as high as with ARS clones selected in S. cerevisiae. The stability of ARS-containing plasmids varied; after 20 generations of growth in the presence of G418, 16-38% of the cells remained resistant to the drug. In the absence of selection pressure less than 5% of the cells retained the drug-resistance phenotype. Plasmids containing the ARS1 or 2 mu replicon of S. cerevisiae failed to transform K. lactis for G418 resistance. Inclusion of S. cerevisiae centromere, CEN4, in a K. lactis ARS recombinant plasmid did not increase the stability of the plasmid in K. lactis, and marker genes on the vector segregated predominantly 4-:0+ through meiosis. We conclude that neither the ARS sequences or the centromere of S. cerevisiae was functioning in K. lactis. 相似文献
