متن کاملTransposon-mediated insertional mutagenesis revealed the functions of animal cellulose synthase in the ascidian Ciona intestinalis.
Tunicates are the only animals that perform cellulose biosynthesis. The tunicate gene for cellulose synthase, Ci-CesA, was likely acquired by horizontal transfer from bacteria and was a key innovation in the evolution of tunicates. Transposon-based mutagenesis in an ascidian, Ciona intestinalis, has generated a mutant, swimming juvenile (sj). Ci-CesA is the gene responsible for the sj mutant, i...
متن کاملInsertional mutagenesis by a hybrid piggyBac and sleeping beauty transposon in the rat.
A hybrid piggyBac/Sleeping Beauty transposon-based insertional mutagenesis system that can be mobilized by simple breeding was established in the rat. These transposons were engineered to include gene trap sequences and a tyrosinase (Tyr) pigmentation reporter to rescue the albinism of the genetic background used in the mutagenesis strategy. Single-copy transposon insertions were transposed int...
متن کاملInsertional mutagenesis by the Tol2 transposon-mediated enhancer trap approach generated mutations in two developmental genes: tcf7 and synembryn-like.
Gene trap and enhancer trap methods using transposon or retrovirus have been recently described in zebrafish. However, insertional mutants using these methods have not been reported. We report here development of an enhancer trap method by using the Tol2 transposable element and identification and characterization of insertional mutants. We created 73 fish lines that carried single copy inserti...
متن کاملA system for insertional mutagenesis and chromosomal rearrangement using the Ds transposon and Cre-lox.
A system for insertional mutagenesis and chromosomal rearrangement in Arabidopsis has been developed. The T-DNA vectors are based on the maize transposon Ds, lox sites from the Cre-lox site-specific recombination system, and transcriptional fusions expressing Ac transposase or Cre recombinase. The engineered transposon is termed Dslox. Transposed Dslox insertions were created by crossing plants...
