Abstract:

Purpose: The aim of this study was cloning the Gba enzyme in pUCBM21 plasmid, and making frame mutation on it and sequencing it. Materials and methods: mRNA was extracted from mouse spleen and glucocerebrosidase cDNA was synthesized and amplified by PCR with specific primers. cDNA was cloned in pUCBM21 and analyzed by restriction enzymes. A fragment of its sequence was deleted using MscI restriction enzyme .Then frame mutation was prepared and sequenced. Results: glucocerebrosidase cDNA was synthesized and amplified by PCR. Then cloned in pUCBM21 and confirmed using restriction analysis. An in frame mutation was done and confirmed by sequencing. Conclusion: The successful sequenced Gba cDNA compared with other researchers results.

In vitro elaboration Mutagenesis and cloning of the PA gene in Bacillus subtilis

Background: The immune antigen of Bacillus anthracis is a protein that can attach to the surface receptor of all human cells. At the surface of cancer cells, there is a receptor that activates the uPA (Urokinase plasminogen) that do not exist in normal human cells. Objectives: The aim of this study was changing the location of the attachment of the PA gene by a dir...

Molecular cloning and nucleotide sequence of human glucocerebrosidase cDNA.

Mutations in the human glucocerebrosidase gene cause Gaucher disease. A cDNA clone containing the entire human glucocerebrosidase coding region from normal cells has been isolated using lambda gt11 expression libraries. The complete nucleotide sequence, a restriction map, and a hydropathy profile are presented. Hybridization to chromosome-specific DNA localizes the human glucocerebrosidase gene...

Isolation, molecular cloning and expression analysis of Aeluropus littoralis Monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDHAR) gene under salt stress

Plants are naturally exposed to frequent changes in environmental conditions such as salt stress affecting their growth and development, and consequently a considerable reduction in total productivity. Monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDHAR), a key enzyme in ascorbate-glutathione cycle, serves as an important antioxidative enzyme in scavenging of reactive oxygen spices (ROS). In this study, ...

Molecular cloning and site-specific mutagenesis of a gene involved in arylsulfatase production in Campylobacter jejuni.

The arylsulfatase gene from Campylobacter jejuni 81-176 encodes a predicted protein of 69,293 Da which shows no sequence similarity with other known arylsulfatases. The gene hybridizes to other Ast+ strains of C. jejuni and Campylobacter sputorum subsp. bubulus, as well as to many Ast- strains of C. jejuni.
