Mechanisms of intermolecular homologous recombination in plants as studied with single- and double-stranded DNA molecules.
To elucidate the mechanism for intermolecular homologous recombination in plants we cotransformed Nicotiana tabacum cv Petit Havana SR1 protoplasts with constructs carrying different defective derivatives of the NPTII gene. The resulting kanamycin resistant clones were screened for possible recombination products by PCR, which proved to be a valuable technique for this analysis. Our results sho...
متن کاملThe dual nature of homologous recombination in plants.
Homologous recombination creates covalent linkages between DNA in regions of highly similar or identical sequence. Recent results from several laboratories, many of them based on forward and reverse genetics in Arabidopsis, give insights into the mechanisms of the enzymatic machinery and the involvement of chromatin in somatic and meiotic DNA recombination. Also, signaling pathways and intercon...
متن کاملDesigning E1 Deleted Adenoviral Vector by Homologous Recombination
Adenoviruses are used extensively to deliver genes into mammalian cells, particularly where there is a requirement for high-level expression of transgene products in cultured cells, or for use as recombinant viral vaccines or in gene therapy. In spite of their usefulness, the construction of adenoviral vectors (AdV) is a cumbersome and lengthy process that is not readily amenable to the generat...
متن کاملHomologous recombination
DNA damage, in the form of DNA double-strand breaks, poses a considerable threat to genomic integrity and cell survival. If left unrepaired, a single double-strand break is sufficient to cause cell death and, if repaired inappropriately, a double-strand break may give rise to a potentially oncogenic translocation. Double-strand breaks in genomic DNA may arise accidentally in a number of ways, i...
متن کاملRecombination: Homologous recombination branches out
Homologous recombination can be divided into three key steps: strand exchange, branch migration and resolution. The identification of a protein complex that catalyses branch migration and Holliday junction resolution argues that the mechanism of homologous recombination is conserved from bacteria to man.
