High-level overproduction of His-tagged Tth DNA polymerase in Thermus thermophilus.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new plasmid for the overexpression of His-tagged thermozymes in Thermus thermophilus was developed. With this plasmid, soluble and active histidine-tagged DNA polymerase from T. thermophilus was overproduced in larger amounts in the thermophile than in Escherichia coli. The protein purified from the thermophile was active in PCR.

Reverse transcription and DNA amplification by a Thermus thermophilus DNA polymerase.
A recombinant DNA polymerase derived from the thermophilic eubacterium Thermus thermophilus (Tth pol) was found to possess very efficient reverse transcriptase (RT) activity in the presence of MnCl2. Many of the problems typically associated with the high degree of secondary structure present in RNA are minimized by using a thermostable DNA polymerase for reverse transcription, and predominantl...
متن کاملFunctional analysis of Thermus thermophilus transcription factor NusG
Transcription elongation factors from the NusG family are ubiquitous from bacteria to humans and play diverse roles in the regulation of gene expression. These proteins consist of at least two domains. The N-terminal domains directly bind to the largest, β' in bacteria, subunit of RNA polymerase (RNAP), whereas the C-terminal domains interact with other cellular components and serve as platform...
متن کاملImproving the fidelity of Thermus thermophilus DNA ligase.
The DNA ligase from Thermus thermophilus (Tth DNA ligase) seals single-strand breaks (nicks) in DNA duplex substrates. The specificity and thermostability of this enzyme are exploited in the ligase chain reaction (LCR) and ligase detection reaction (LDR) to distinguish single base mutations associated with genetic diseases. Herein, we describe a quantitative assay using fluorescently labeled su...
متن کاملLong-Range PCR Amplification of DNA by DNA Polymerase III Holoenzyme from Thermus thermophilus
DNA replication in bacteria is accomplished by a multicomponent replicase, the DNA polymerase III holoenzyme (pol III HE). The three essential components of the pol III HE are the α polymerase, the β sliding clamp processivity factor, and the DnaX clamp-loader complex. We report here the assembly of the functional holoenzyme from Thermus thermophilus (Tth), an extreme thermophile. The minimal h...
متن کاملOptimization of the PCR for detection of Staphylococcus aureus nuc gene in bovine milk.
Staphylococcus aureus is an economically important and a major mastitis-causing pathogen that also poses food safety and antimicrobial resistance threats. Substances in mastitic milk inhibit the Taq DNA polymerase reaction (Taq PCR) making it of limited use for detecting S. aureus mastitis. In the study reported here, a set of oligonucleotide primers of 21 and 24 bases was used in Taq-PCR to am...
