Chemically induced mutagenesis in a shuttle vector with a low-background mutant frequency.
We have developed a recombinant DNA shuttle vector that permits the molecular analysis of mutations induced in human cells by chemical or physical mutagens. The vector is able to replicate as a plasmid in Escherichia coli and in Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed human lymphoblastoid cell lines and contains the herpes simplex virus type 1 thymidine kinase gene (HSV tk) as the target for mutag...
متن کاملShuttle mutagenesis: a method of transposon mutagenesis for Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
We have extended the method of transposon mutagenesis to the eukaryote, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A bacterial transposon containing a selectable yeast gene can be transposed into a cloned fragment of yeast DNA in Escherichia coli, and the transposon insertion can be returned to the yeast genome by homologous recombination. Initially, the cloned yeast DNA fragment to be mutagenized was transform...
متن کاملRearrangement and mutagenesis of a shuttle vector plasmid after passage in mammalian cells.
A shuttle vector plasmid that contains sequences from simian virus 40, pBR322, and a bacterial marker gene, galactokinase, has been constructed. After replication in cells permissive for virus progeny, plasmid DNA was introduced into a galactokinase-deficient bacterial strain and the relative frequency of colonies with plasmids but without galactokinase activity was determined. This assay showe...
متن کاملConstruction of a recombinant vector for site-directed mutagenesis in Salmonella typhimurium
BACKGROUND: Among all common techniques in sitedirectedmutagenesis, λ Red recombinase system has beenwidely used to knock out chromosomal genes in bacteria. In thismethod, there is always the risk of DNA Linear digestion byhost's restriction enzymes that leads to the low frequency ofrecombination. OBJECTIVES:To overcome this, we constructeda recombinant vector to disrupt phoP gene in Salmonella...
متن کاملLentinula edodes (shiitake) modulates chemically induced mutagenesis by enhancing pitting.
This study was undertaken to understand how Lentinula edodes modulates in vivo mutagenesis induced by alkylating agents in bone marrow and peripheral blood as described in our previous article. Male Swiss mice were pretreated for 15 consecutive days with aqueous extracts prepared from L. edodes, after which, the number of circulating blood cells, normal erythroid bone marrow cell cycling, and p...
