Gene disruption and gene replacement in Streptomyces via single stranded DNA transformation of integration vectors.
For the isolation of single stranded plasmid DNA, various E. coli and E. coli-Streptomyces shuttle plasmids were equipped with the phage f1 replication origin. The transformation of some representative Streptomyces species with plasmid vectors occurred irrespective of whether single or double stranded DNA was used. In contrast, the transformation of Streptomyces was 10 to 100 times more efficie...
متن کاملNuclear-gene targeting by using single-stranded DNA avoids illegitimate DNA integration in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
Homologous DNA recombination (HR) allows the deletion (knockout), repair (rescuing), and modification of a selected gene, thereby rendering a functional analysis of the gene product possible. However, targeting of nuclear genes has been an inefficient process in most eukaryotes, including algae, plants, and animals, due to the dominance of integration of the applied DNA into nonhomologous regio...
متن کاملSingle-Stranded DNA Uptake during Gonococcal Transformation.
UNLABELLED Neisseria gonorrhoeae is naturally competent for transformation. The first step of the transformation process is the uptake of DNA from the environment into the cell. This transport step is driven by a powerful molecular machine. Here, we addressed the question whether this machine imports single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) at similar rates. The fluorescence ...
متن کاملIntegrative vectors for gene deletion and replacement.
An improved method for gene deletion or replacement in Escherichia coli was developed. It employs a set of integrative vectors and two helper plasmids, as a temporary source of RecA and Flp activities. The integrative vectors combine several useful features including three different selection markers placed between two parallel oriented Flp recombinase target (FRT) sites. Each marker is flanked...
متن کاملHIV-Derived Lentiviral Vectors: Current Progress toward Gene Therapy and DNA Vaccination
Lentiviral vectors are promising gene delivery tools capable of transducing a variety of dividing and non-dividing cells, including pluripotent stem cells which are refractory for transduction by murine retroviruses. Although there is a growing debate on the safety of lentiviral vectors for gene transfer, in particular for those derived from human immunodeficiency viruses, type one (HIV-1) and ...
