Site-Directed Mutagenesis in Human Granulocyte-colony Stimulating Factor, Cloning and Expression in Escherichia coli
Human granulocyte colony stimulating factor (hG-CSF) induces proliferation and differentiation of granulocyte progenitor cells. This glycoprotein is currently being used for treatment of neutropenia, in patients who have undergone bone marrow transplantation. So far, different researchers have tried to enhance hG-CSF biological activity and stability. In this study, Polymerase Chain Reaction (P...
متن کاملSystematic mutagenesis of the Escherichia coli genome.
A high-throughput method has been developed for the systematic mutagenesis of the Escherichia coli genome. The system is based on in vitro transposition of a modified Tn5 element, the Sce-poson, into linear fragments of each open reading frame. The transposon introduces both positive (kanamycin resistance) and negative (I-SceI recognition site) selectable markers for isolation of mutants and su...
متن کاملOxygen-dependent mutagenesis in Escherichia coli lacking superoxide dismutase.
Escherichia coli double mutants (sodA sodB) completely lacking superoxide dismutase (SOD) have greatly enhanced mutation rates during aerobic growth. Single mutants lacking manganese SOD (MnSOD) but possessing iron SOD (FeSOD) have a smaller increase, and single mutants lacking FeSOD but possessing MnSOD do not show such an increase. The enhancement of mutagenesis is completely dependent on the...
متن کاملDNA polymerase switching: effects on spontaneous mutagenesis in Escherichia coli
Escherichia coli possesses five known DNA polymerases (pols). Pol III holoenzyme is the cell's main replicase, while pol I is responsible for the maturation of Okazaki fragments and filling gaps generated during nucleotide excision repair. Pols II, IV and V are significantly upregulated as part of the cell's global SOS response to DNA damage and under these conditions, may alter the fidelity of...
متن کاملDual role for Escherichia coli RecA protein in SOS mutagenesis.
Induction of the Escherichia coli SOS system increases the ability of the cells to perform DNA repair and mutagenesis. Previous work has shown that this increased mutagenesis is the result of derepression of specific genes through a complex regulatory mechanism controlled by LexA and RecA proteins. One role of RecA protein in this process is to facilitate proteolytic cleavage of LexA protein (t...
