Transformation of Monascus purpureus to hygromycin B resistance with cosmid pMOcosX reduces fertility
∗ Corresponding author Albino strain KB20M1 of Monascus purpureus was genetically transformed to hygromycin B resistance with cosmid pMOcosX, using biolistic bombardment. Conidia and mycelial fragments were used as the recipient material and rupture disk strengths of 6.2 and 9.3 MPa each yielded a transformed isolate from five bombardments. Southern analysis suggested a single copy of the cosmi...
متن کاملHigh-frequency transformation of yeast by plasmids containing the cloned yeast ARG4 gene.
Hybrid ColE1 plasmids, containing cloned DNA from the yeast ARG4 region [e.g., pYe(arg4)1], transform yeast arg4 mutants to ARG4(+) with a frequency of 10(-4) (about 10(3) transformants per mug of plasmid DNA) and can replicate autonomously without integrating into the yeast genome. The yeast transformants are genetically unstable when grown on nonselective medium, but can be readily grown and ...
متن کاملEnzymatic Basis of Hygromycin B Resistance in Escherichia coli
A plasmid conferring resistance to the aminocyclitol antibiotic hygromycin B was isolated from Escherichia coli. The gene conferring resistance to this drug was cloned in pBR322, and the gene was localized to a fragment of ca. 1,510 base pairs. Resistance to hygromycin B is determined by an aminocyclitol phosphotransferase that modifies hygromycin B and structurally related antibiotics. The spe...
متن کاملBiochemical basis of resistance to hygromycin B in Streptomyces hygroscopicus--the producing organism.
Hygromycin B, an aminocyclitol antibiotic that strongly inhibits both 70S and 80S ribosomes, is synthesized by Streptomyces hygroscopicus. Ribosomes from this Gram-positive mycelial bacterium are inhibited in vitro by the antibiotic. In contrast, the streptomycete is highly resistant to the drug in vivo since it possesses hygromycin B phosphotransferase activity. This enzyme has been shown by g...
