Group II intron mobility occurs by target DNA-primed reverse transcription
Mobile group II introns encode reverse transcriptases and insert site specifically into intronless alleles (homing). Here, in vitro experiments show that homing of the yeast mtDNA group II intron aI2 occurs by reverse transcription at a double-strand break in the recipient DNA. A site-specific endonuclease cleaves the antisense strand of recipient DNA at position +10 of exon 3 and the sense str...
متن کاملUse of computer-designed group II introns to disrupt Escherichia coli DExH/D-box protein and DNA helicase genes.
Mobile group II introns are site-specific retroelements that use a novel mobility mechanism in which the excised intron RNA inserts directly into a DNA target site and is then reverse transcribed by the associated intron-encoded protein. Because the DNA target site is recognized primarily by base-pairing of the intron RNA with only a small number of positions recognized by the protein, it has b...
متن کاملGene targeting using randomly inserted group II introns (targetrons) recovered from an Escherichia coli gene disruption library
The Lactococcus lactis Ll.LtrB group II intron retrohomes by reverse-splicing into one strand of a double-stranded DNA target site, while the intron-encoded protein cleaves the opposite strand and uses it to prime reverse transcription of the inserted intron RNA. The protein and intron RNA function in a ribonucleoprotein particle, with much of the DNA target sequence recognized by base-pairing ...
متن کاملGroup II Intron-Based Gene Targeting Reactions in Eukaryotes
BACKGROUND Mobile group II introns insert site-specifically into DNA target sites by a mechanism termed retrohoming in which the excised intron RNA reverse splices into a DNA strand and is reverse transcribed by the intron-encoded protein. Retrohoming is mediated by a ribonucleoprotein particle that contains the intron-encoded protein and excised intron RNA, with target specificity determined l...
متن کاملLocalization of a Bacterial Group II Intron-Encoded Protein in Eukaryotic Nuclear Splicing-Related Cell Compartments
Some bacterial group II introns are widely used for genetic engineering in bacteria, because they can be reprogrammed to insert into the desired DNA target sites. There is considerable interest in developing this group II intron gene targeting technology for use in eukaryotes, but nuclear genomes present several obstacles to the use of this approach. The nuclear genomes of eukaryotes do not con...
