Neomycin resistance as a dominant selectable marker for selection and isolation of vaccinia virus recombinants.
The antibiotic G418 was shown to be an effective inhibitor of vaccinia virus replication when an appropriate concentration of it was added to cell monolayers 48 h before infection. Genetic engineering techniques were used in concert with DNA transfection protocols to construct vaccinia virus recombinants containing the neomycin resistance gene (neo) from transposon Tn5. These recombinants conta...
متن کاملPosition-independent germline transformation in Drosophila using a cuticle pigmentation gene as a selectable marker.
P element mediated germline transformation is an essential part of the analysis of gene function in Drosophila melanogaster. This method allows for efficient introduction of single copies of genes into random positions within the genome (1). The generation of multiple transformed lines is required, as some genes display variable expression patterns depending on the insertion site (2, 3). Elimin...
متن کاملA bacterial haloalkane dehalogenase gene as a negative selectable marker in Arabidopsis.
The dhlA gene of Xanthobacter autotrophicus GJ10 encodes a dehalogenase which hydrolyzes dihalo- alkanes, such as 1, 2-dichloroethane (DCE), to a halogenated alcohol and an inorganic halide (Janssen et al. 1994, Annu. Rev. Microbiol. 48, 163-191). In Xanthobacter, these alcohols are further catabolized by alcohol and aldehyde dehydrogenase activities, and by the product of the dhlB gene to a se...
متن کاملCyclosporin A-resistance based gene placement system for Neurospora crassa.
DNA introduced into Neurospora crassa are usually inserted at random ectopic sites of the genome, often in multiple copies. To facilitate the study of gene expression and function, transformation by a single-copy of a gene at a defined locus is desired. Although several targeted gene placement methods are available for N. crassa, they all require a specific genetic background in the recipient. ...
متن کاملCytokine prestimulation as a gene therapy strategy: implications for using the MDR1 gene as a dominant selectable marker.
A major obstacle to stem cell gene therapy is the extremely low efficiency of stem cell transduction. In vivo selection is a strategy for enriching a minor population of genetically modified bone marrow cells through the introduction of a drug resistance gene, followed by subsequent administration of the corresponding cytotoxic drug in vivo. Achieving persistent effects from in vivo selection i...
