The rice miniature inverted repeat transposable element mPing is an effective insertional mutagen in soybean.
Insertional mutagenesis of legume genomes such as soybean (Glycine max) should aid in identifying genes responsible for key traits such as nitrogen fixation and seed quality. The relatively low throughput of soybean transformation necessitates the use of a transposon-tagging strategy where a single transformation event will produce many mutations over a number of generations. However, existing ...
متن کاملSite preferences of insertional mutagenesis agents in Arabidopsis.
We have performed a comparative analysis of the insertion sites of engineered Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) insertional mutagenesis vectors that are based on the maize (Zea mays) transposable elements and Agrobacterium T-DNA. The transposon-based agents show marked preference for high GC content, whereas the T-DNA-based agents show preference for low GC content regions. The transposon-base...
متن کاملInsertional mutagenesis of pathogenic fungi.
Screening insertional mutants for loss of virulence is an effective method for investigating the molecular genetic basis of bacterial pathogenesis, but has only recently been applied to fungal pathogens. For many pathogenic fungi transformation with heterologous plasmid DNA results in complex integration events. This problem can now be circumvented for some species using restriction enzyme medi...
متن کاملA versatile transposon-based activation tag vector system for functional genomics in cereals and other monocot plants.
Transposon insertional mutagenesis is an effective alternative to T-DNA mutagenesis when transformation through tissue culture is inefficient as is the case for many crop species. When used as activation tags, transposons can be exploited to generate novel gain-of-function phenotypes without transformation and are of particular value in the study of polyploid plants where gene knockouts will no...
متن کاملRandom transposon mutagenesis of Campylobacter jejuni.
Genetic studies of Campylobacter jejuni have been limited due to the lack of a transposon mutagenesis method. Here, we describe a novel technique for random transposon mutagenesis using a mariner-based transposon into C. jejuni strain 480. Insertions were random, as demonstrated by Southern blot analysis and insertional junction sequencing. We have demonstrated, for the first time, random in vi...
