Novel cluster of alpha-interferon gene sequences in a placental cosmid DNA library.
A human cosmid library was constructed and probed with a human alpha interferon (IFN-alpha) cDNA clone. One clone giving a strong hybridizing signal was isolated and characterized. The cosmid DNA insert represents a section of the human genome containing three regions of IFN-alpha-like sequences. The DNA was characterized with restriction endonuclease mapping, thereby allowing comparison to sim...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of a human collagen alpha 1(I)-like gene from a cosmid library.
We have isolated a human collagen alpha 1(I)-like gene from a cosmid library. The clone which contains 37kb of human DNA has been shown to contain this gene by DNA sequencing, hybrid arrest and hybrid selection assays and Northern blot hybridizations. The collagen gene sequence extends through most of the cloned DNA and must, therefore, be at least 35kb in length.
متن کاملIsolation of a functional human interleukin 2 gene from a cosmid library by recombination in vivo.
A method has been developed that allows the isolation of genomic clones from a cosmid library by homologous recombination in vivo. This method was used to isolate a human genomic interleukin 2 (IL2) gene. The genomic cosmid library was packaged in vivo into lambda phage particles. A recombination-proficient host strain carrying IL2 cDNA sequences in a non-homologous plasmid vector was infected ...
متن کاملA gene therapy for cancer using intramuscular injection of plasmid DNA encoding interferon alpha.
A cancer treatment is described in which i.m. injection of plasmid DNA (pDNA) encoding murine interferon alpha (mIFN-alpha) leads to potent antitumor effects on primary and metastatic tumors in mice. Mice bearing s.c. B16F10 melanoma, Cloudman melanoma, or glioma 261 tumors were injected i.m. with mIFN-alpha pDNA. In all three tumor models, a significant reduction in tumor volume and enhancemen...
متن کاملTotal synthesis of long DNA sequences: synthesis of a contiguous 32-kb polyketide synthase gene cluster.
To exploit the huge potential of whole-genome sequence information, the ability to efficiently synthesize long, accurate DNA sequences is becoming increasingly important. An approach proposed toward this end involves the synthesis of approximately 5-kb segments of DNA, followed by their assembly into longer sequences by conventional cloning methods [Smith, H. O., Hutchinson, C. A., III, Pfannko...
