Rolling circle amplification of complete nematode mitochondrial genomes.
To enable investigation of nematode mitochondrial DNA evolution, methodology has been developed to amplify intact nematode mitochondrial genomes in preparative yields using a rolling circle replication strategy. Successful reactions were generated from whole cell template DNA prepared by alkaline lysis of the rhabditid nematode Caenorhabditis elegans and a mermithid nematode, Thaumamermis cosgr...
متن کاملA Rolling Circle Replication Mechanism Produces Multimeric Lariats of Mitochondrial DNA in Caenorhabditis elegans
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) encodes respiratory complex subunits essential to almost all eukaryotes; hence respiratory competence requires faithful duplication of this molecule. However, the mechanism(s) of its synthesis remain hotly debated. Here we have developed Caenorhabditis elegans as a convenient animal model for the study of metazoan mtDNA synthesis. We demonstrate that C. elegans mtDNA r...
متن کاملRolling Circle Amplification (RCA): an approach for quick detection and identification of fungal species
Conventional methods for fungal identification in the clinical laboratory rely on morphological andphysiological tests. These tests often need several days or weeks to complete and are frequentlyunspecific. Molecular identification mostly implies sequencing, which is relatively expensive andtime-consuming, as well as impractical for large numbers of isolates. The Rolling CircleAmplification app...
متن کاملIsothermal strand-displacement amplification applications for high-throughput genomics.
Amplification of source DNA is a nearly universal requirement for molecular biology applications. The primary methods currently available to researchers are limited to in vivo amplification in Escherichia coli hosts and the polymerase chain reaction. Rolling-circle DNA replication is a well-known method for synthesis of phage genomes and recently has been applied as rolling circle amplification...
متن کاملDouble rolling circle replication (DRCR) is recombinogenic
Homologous recombination plays a critical role in maintaining genetic diversity as well as genome stability. Interesting examples implying hyper-recombination are found in nature. In chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) and the herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) genome, DNA sequences flanked by inverted repeats undergo inversion very frequently, suggesting hyper-recombinational events. However, mechanisms respo...
