The ammonia-oxidizing bacterium Nitrosomonas sp. strain ENI-11 contains three copies of the hao gene (hao 1, hao 2, and hao 3) coding for hydroxylamine oxidoreductase (HAO). Three single mutants (hao 1::kan, hao 2::kan, or hao 3::kan) had 68 to 75% of the wild-type growth rate and 58 to 89% of the wild-type HAO activity when grown under the same conditions. A double mutant (hao 1::kan and hao 3::amp) also had 68% of the wild-type growth and 37% of the wild-type HAO activity. 相似文献

An Arxula adeninivorans vector element has been identified that provides multicopy integration in an atrp1 host strain. The element consists of the ATRP1 selection marker fused to a newly generated truncated ALEU2 promoter of 53 bp. In the described example eight copies of an amyA expression vector encoding heterologous alpha-amylase from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens are integrated in the genome of the recombinant strain instead of a single copy observed when using the ATRP1 element with the complete promoter. The high copy number results in strains of superior productivity for a secreted recombinant alpha-amylase. The vector design enables the integration of a small vector fragment that consists of yeast DNA only providing high transformation frequencies and a high mitotic stability. 相似文献

Multiple copies of a gene may lead to difficulty in the interpretation of typing results because polymorphism of the copies may wrongly lead to the conclusion that different types are present in a specimen. To determine the copy number per genome of the nuclear rDNA and beta-tubulin genes analyzed for the typing of Pneumocystis carinii f. sp. hominis, we developed a strategy based on the use of the same multicompetitor molecule in two different quantitative-competitive PCRs, one for the gene under study and the other for a reference single copy gene, allowing direct comparison of the results of both PCRs. Control experiments showed that the strategy was sensitive enough to detect duplication of a gene. The copy number of the nuclear rDNA operon was determined by amplification of the intron of the 26S rDNA gene and that of the beta-tubulin by amplification of the region surrounding the intron no. 6. The method was first tested on P. c. carinii, the special form commonly infecting rats. Pneumocystis c. carinii was found to contain a single copy of the rDNA operon. The method was then applied to P. c. hominis. The results confirmed that P. c. hominis genome contains a single copy of the nuclear rDNA and beta-tubulin genes. 相似文献

Smy2p participates in COPII vesicle formation through the interaction with Sec23p/Sec24p subcomplex 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The coat protein complex II (COPII) is essential for vesicle formation from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and is composed of two heterodimeric subcomplexes, Sec23p/Sec24p and Sec13p/Sec31p, and the small guanosine triphosphatase Sar1p. In an effort to identify novel factors that may participate in COPII vesicle formation, we isolated SMY2 , a yeast gene encoding a protein of unknown function, as a multicopy suppressor of the temperature-sensitive sec24-20 mutant. We found that even a low-copy expression of SMY2 was sufficient for the suppression of the sec24-20 phenotypes, and the chromosomal deletion of SMY2 led to a severe growth defect in the sec24-20 background. In addition, SMY2 exhibited genetic interactions with several other genes involved in the ER-to-Golgi transport. Subcellular fractionation analysis showed that Smy2p was a peripheral membrane protein fractionating together with COPII components. However, Smy2p was not loaded onto COPII vesicles generated in vitro . Interestingly, coimmunoprecipitation between Smy2p and the Sec23p/Sec24p subcomplex was specifically observed in sec23-1 and sec24-20 backgrounds, suggesting that this interaction was a prerequisite for the suppression of the sec24-20 phenotypes by overexpression of SMY2 . We propose that Smy2p is located on the surface of the ER and facilitates COPII vesicle formation through the interaction with Sec23p/Sec24p subcomplex. 相似文献

Duplication and expression analysis of multicopy miRNA gene family members in Arabidopsis and rice 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
To understand the expansion ofmulticopy microRNA (miRNA) families in plants, we localized the reported miRNA genes from Arabidopsis and rice to their chromosomes, respectively, and observed that 37% of 117 miRNA genes from Arabidopsis and 35% of 173 miRNA genes from rice were segmental duplications in the genome. In order to characterize whether the expression diversification has occurred among plant multicopy miRNA family members, we designed PCR primers targeting 48 predicted miRNA precursors from 10 families in Arabidopsis and rice. Results from RT-PCR data suggest that the transcribed precursors of members within the same miRNA family were present at different expression levels. In addition, although miRl60 and miR162 sequences were conserved in Arabidopsis and rice, we found that the expression patterns of these genes differed between the two species. These data suggested that expression diversification has occurred in multicopy miRNA families, increasing our understanding of the expression regulation of miRNAs in plants. 相似文献

Mutations in the Chediak-Higashi syndrome gene (CHS1) and its murine homologue Beige result in the formation of enlarged lysosomes. BPH1 (Beige Protein Homologue 1) encodes the Saccharomyces cerevisiae homologue of CHS1/Beige. BPH1 is not essential and the encoded protein was found to be both cytosolic and peripherally bound to a membrane. Neither disruption nor overexpression of BPH1 affected vacuole morphology as assessed by fluorescence microscopy. The deltabph1 strain showed an impaired growth on defined synthetic media containing potassium acetate buffered below pH 4.25, increased sensitivity to calcofluor white, and increased agglutination in response to low pH. A library screen identified VPS9, FLO1, FLO9, BTS1 and OKP1 as high copy suppressors of the growth defect of deltabph1 on both low pH potassium acetate and calcofluor white. The deltabph1 strain demonstrated a mild defect in sorting vacuolar components, including increased secretion of carboxypeptidase Y and missorting of alkaline phosphatase. Overexpression of VPS9, BTS1 and OKP1 suppressed the carboxypeptidase Y secretion defect of deltabph1. Overexpression of BPH1 was found to suppress the calcofluor white sensitivity of a class E VPS deletion strain, deltavta1. Together, these data suggest that Bph1p associates with a membrane and is involved in protein sorting and cell wall formation. 相似文献

Nucleotide sequence of gene pfkB encoding the minor phosphofructokinase of Escherichia coli K-12 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The nucleotide sequence of a 1.3-kb DNA fragment containing the entire pfkB gene which codes for Pfk-2 of Escherichia coli, a minor phosphofructokinase (Pfk) enzyme, is reported. The Pfk-2 protein subunit is encoded by 924 bp, has 308 amino acids and an Mr of 33 000. Like other weakly expressed E. coli genes the codon usage in the pfkB gene is random; there is no strong bias for the usage of major tRNA isoaccepting species, and the codon preference rules of Grosjean and Fiers [Gene, 18 (1982) 199-209] are followed. This is the first report of the complete gene sequence of a phosphofructokinase. 相似文献
