Biological functions of the bacteriophage T3 SAMase gene.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Certain differences between phage T3 on the one hand and T3sam- and T7 on the other hand indicate that the T3-coded SAMase function is responsible (i) for the development of the pseudolysogenic state by preventing T3 DNA methylation, and (ii) for the partial protection of the phage DNA against restriction by the P system.

Cell-specific targeting by engineered M13 bacteriophage expressing VEGFR2 nanobody
Objective(s): Filamentous bacteriophage M13 was genetically engineered to specifically target mammalian cells for gene delivery purpose. Materials and Methods: A vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2)-specific nanobody was genetically fused to the capsid gene III of M13 bacteriophage (pHEN4/3VGR19). A mammalian expression construct containing Cop-green fluorescent protein (Cop-G...

The human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulation factor (hGM-CSF) gene was cloned in the pET 23a( +) expression vector under the control of strong bacteriophage T7 transcription and translation signals. The hGM-CSF gene was transferred into E. coli strainBL21 (DE3)pLysS andIPTG was used for induction of GM-CSF gene. Production of the target protein was obtained as revealed by ELISA and ...
متن کاملConstruction of the Recombinant Plasmid Expressing AID under the Control of Temperature-sensitive Promoter of Bacteriophage Lambda
Background and purpose: Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) is a B-cell specific enzyme responsible for somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR) of antibody genes within the B-cell follicle of peripheral lymphoid organs. Ectopic overexpression of the enzyme leads to mutations in non-B cells and Escherichia coli (E.coli) genes. However, induction of mutations in E...
متن کاملLocation, function, and nucleotide sequence of a promoter for bacteriophage T3 RNA polymerase.
The major promoters for bacteriophage T3 RNA polymerase on the T3 genome have been mapped by DNA.RNA filter hybridization. One promoter is located in a 300-base-pair Hpa I restriction fragment near the genetic "left" end of T3 DNA. The sequence in the vicinity of the major initiation site of transcription in this region has been determined. A part of the (-)strand sequence is 5' T-A-T-T-T-A-C-C...
متن کاملTotal sequence, flanking regions, and transcripts of bacteriophage T4 nrdA gene, coding for alpha chain of ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase.
As a part of a study of the role of bacteriophage T4-coded ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase in the switch-on and regulation of T4 DNA replication, we report the cloning and sequencing of the nrdA gene, coding for the alpha protein chain of the enzyme. The open reading frame of the nrdA gene begins 558 base pairs downstream of the 3' terminus of the td gene (thymidylate synthase). nrdB, enco...
