Stability of ColE1-like and pBR322-like plasmids in Escherichia coli.
The average copy number, the level of ampicillin resistance conferred by one plasmid, and the degree of plasmid multimerization were determined for several ColE1-like and pBR322-like plasmids. From the results obtained, the variance of the units of partition corresponding to each plasmid studied was calculated. Experimentally determined plasmid stability was compared with that calculated using ...
متن کاملBiochemical construction of specific chimeric plasmids from ColE1 DNA and unfractionated Escherichia coli DNA.
A series of chimeric plasmids was constructed using colicinigenic factor E1 (ColE1) DNA as the replicon and DNA fragments carrying the galactose or tryptophan operons from E. coli. Restriction endonuclease EcoRI digests of ColE1 DNA and various DNAs containing the trp or gal operons were joined by T4 polynucleotide ligase [polynucleotide synthetase (ATP), poly(deoxyribonucleotide):poly(deoxyrib...
متن کاملMulticopy plasmids are clustered and localized in Escherichia coli.
We localized the multicopy plasmid RK2 in Escherichia coli and found that the number of fluorescent foci observed in each cell was substantially less than the copy number of the plasmid, suggesting that many copies of RK2 are grouped into a few multiplasmid clusters. In minimal glucose media, the majority of cells had one or two foci, with a single focus localized near midcell, and two foci nea...
متن کاملCONSTRUCTION OF RECOMBINANT PLASMIDS FOR PERIPLASMIC EXPRESSION OF HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE IN ESCHERICHIA COLI UNDER T7 AND LAC PROMOTERS
In order to study the periplasmic expression of human growth hormone (hGH) in Escherichia coli, the related cDNA was inserted in two expression plasmids carrying pelB signal peptide, one with lac bacterial promoter and the other with a bacteriophage T7-based promoter. The recombinant plasmids were moved to TG1 and BL21 strains of E. coli, respectively. To induce the expression systems, IPTG and...
متن کاملFunctions of multiple exonucleases are essential for cell viability, DNA repair and homologous recombination in recD mutants of Escherichia coli.
Heterotrimeric RecBCD enzyme unwinds and resects a DNA duplex containing blunt double-stranded ends and directs loading of the strand-exchange protein RecA onto the unwound 3'-ending strand, thereby initiating the majority of recombination in wild-type Escherichia coli. When the enzyme lacks its RecD subunit, the resulting RecBC enzyme, active in recD mutants, is recombination proficient althou...
