Generation of targeted Chlamydia trachomatis null mutants.
Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular bacterial pathogen that infects hundreds of millions of individuals globally, causing blinding trachoma and sexually transmitted disease. More effective chlamydial control measures are needed, but progress toward this end has been severely hampered by the lack of a tenable chlamydial genetic system. Here, we describe a reverse-genetic approach ...
متن کاملParacoccus denitrificans cytochrome c1 gene replacement mutants.
We describe the construction and characterization of gene replacement mutants for the respiratory chain component cytochrome c1 in the bacterium Paracoccus denitrificans. Its structural gene (fbcC) was inactivated by insertion of the kanamycin resistance gene, introduced into a suicide vector, and conjugated into Paracoccus; chromosomal mutants obtained by homologous recombination were selected...
متن کاملa novel single step double positive double negative selection strategy for β-globin gene replacement
introduction: beta thalassemias are a heterogenous group of autosomal recessive disorders, characterized by reduced or absent production of the b-globin chain by the affected allele. transplantation of allogenic hematopoietic stem cells (hsc) is a curative approach but this therapeutic option is not available to the majority of patients. transplantation of genetically corrected autologous hsc i...
متن کاملStable gene replacement in barley by targeted double-strand break induction.
Gene targeting is becoming an important tool for precision genome engineering in plants. During gene replacement, a variant of gene targeting, transformed DNA integrates into the genome by homologous recombination (HR) to replace resident sequences. We have analysed gene targeting in barley (Hordeum vulgare) using a model system based on double-strand break (DSB) induction by the meganuclease I...
متن کاملMechanisms involved in targeted gene replacement in mammalian cells.
The "ends-out" or omega (Omega)-form gene replacement vector is used routinely to perform targeted genome modification in a variety of species and has the potential to be an effective vehicle for gene therapy. However, in mammalian cells, the frequency of this reaction is low and the mechanism unknown. Understanding molecular features associated with gene replacement is important and may lead t...
