چکیده

We have isolated host mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in which the 2 microns plasmid is poorly maintained. All the mutants tested constituted one complementation group, which was designated map1 (maintenance of plasmid). Minichromosomes carrying a chromosomal replication origin and a centromere were affected in the mutants. Two types of hybrid plasmids generated in vivo and in vitro appeared to compensate for the mutations and had DNA regions containing multiple ARS (autonomously replicating sequence) or a set of 2 microns inverted repeat sequences. These results suggested that poor maintenance of plasmids was due to low levels of replication, probably at the initiation of replication.

EXPRESSION OF HEPATITIS B SURFACE ANTIGEN IN SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE

The genome of HB V virus of serotype ayw cloned in pBR322 and expression shuttle vector p YES2 were used for construction of the HBsAg chimeric genes and their expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Two recombinant plasmids were constructed. One of them contained the coding sequences for the major polypeptide of surface antigen. Another construct carried the major polypeptide with the pre-S2 a...

Isolation, Subtype Determination, Cloning and Expression of HBsAg Gene from an Iranian Carrier in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

The Hepatitis B Surface antigen ( HBsAg) gene was isolated from an Iranian HBeAg positive carrier by PCR. The gene was cloned in pUC19 for sequencing and pYES2 for expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which pNF1 and pDF3 constructs were made respectively. The sequencing data showed that the isolated HBsAg gene shared more than 90% homology with the ayw subtype. The pDF3 was transferred into ...
