A general method for gene isolation in tagging approaches: amplification of insertion mutagenised sites (AIMS)
نویسندگان
چکیده
A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based procedure for the isolation of genes in transposon or T-DNA tagging approaches has been developed. The method can be generally applied and allows the rapid isolation of putative gene sequences even in the presence of high numbers of insertion sequences. The technique has been used successfully for the isolation of the maize Bx1 gene tagged by a Mutator element.

Background and aims: Gastric malignancies have the fourth place among the most prevalent cancers. In many cancers, overexpressing of HER2/neu gene has been observed with a poor prediction. Up to now, there is a little information about the duplication of HER2/neu gene in gastric cancer using MLPA method. The present study aimed to investigate the frequency of mutations resulting from ampl...
متن کاملHigh-throughput linkage analysis of Mutator insertion sites in maize.
Insertional mutagenesis is a cornerstone of functional genomics. High-copy transposable element systems such as Mutator (Mu) in maize (Zea mays) afford the advantage of high forward mutation rates but pose a challenge for identifying the particular element responsible for a given mutation. Several large mutant collections have been generated in Mu-active genetic stocks, but current methods limi...
متن کاملSingle-primer PCR procedure for rapid identification of transposon insertion sites.
Transposons have been used in many laboratories worldwide as a powerful tool for insertional mutagenesis to investigate gene function in bacteria (8). The technique has recently been adapted in which a transposon, such as mini-Tn5, delivers a unique identifying sequence of 40 nucleotides (1). This technique, termed signature-tagged mutagenesis (STM), is widely used in the search for virulence-a...

Rhodococcus FMF is a gram-positive bacterium isolated for the first time from soil samples of Tabriz refinery in Iran. This microorganism is able to catabolize dibenzothiophene to 2-hydroxybiphenyl and inorganic sulfur without the destruction of carbon-carbon bonds. Three structural genes, dszA, dszB, and dszC have been characterized and shown to be responsible for this phenotype. In this work,...
