Presentation Transcript

  1. gDNA (fragments) cDNA (copy of RNA) • Preparing gDNA • restriction enzymes • ‘random nuclease’ •  size fractionate Recombinant DNA • prepare foreign (target) DNA • prepare vector (host) • recombine target and vector DNA • introduce rDNA to host • screen for DNA of interest

  2. gDNA vs cDNA • level of expression • differential gene expression • accessibility • introns • complicates gDNA analysis • can preclude expression • ease of preparation • cDNA more work

  3. Preparation of cDNA • 1) Isolate mRNA • 2) Synthesize DNA-RNA hybrid • reverse transcriptase • oligo-dT primer • random priming • 3) Synthesize 2nd DNA strand • 4) Add termini  RNA dependent DNA polymerase

  4. 1) Isolate mRNA • 2) Synthesize DNA-RNA hybrid • 3) Synthesize 2nd DNA strand • self-priming • replacement synthesis • primed synthesis • 4) Add termini

  5. 1) Isolate mRNA • 2) Synthesize DNA-RNA hybrid • 3) Synthesize 2nd DNA strand • 4) Add termini • i.e., linkers CGGAATTCCG GCCTTAAGGC Eco RI

  6. Recombinant DNA Vectors • autonomously-replicating DNA used to ‘carry’ and amplify foreign DNA within host cell • eg: plasmids, phage/viruses, or combinations • Plasmids • extra-chromosomal elements • 1-200 kb size range • transmitted during conjugation • antibiotic resistance • low copy number vs high copy number

  7. Multiple Cloning Site: |SacI||ScII||XbaI||SpeI||BamH||SmaI||PstI||EcRI||EcRV||HIII||ClaI||SalI||XhoI||KpnI| GAGCTCCACCGCGGTGGCGGCCGCTCTAGAACTAGTGGATCCCCCGGGCTGCAGGAATTCGATATCAAGCTTATCGATACCGTCGACCTCGAGGGGGGGCCCGGTACC CTCGAGGTGGCGCCACCGCCGGCGAGATCTTGATCACCTAGGGGGCCCGACGTCCTTAAGCTATAGTTCGAATAGCTATGGCAGCTGGAGCTCCCCCCCGGGCCATGG Useful Plasmid Features • Relaxed Replication • Selectable Markers • Streamlined • Polylinker or MCS • Identification of Recombinants • most derived from pUC or pBR322

  8. Generic rDNA Protocol • prepare foreign DNA • prepare vector • ligate foreign DNA and vector • introduce vector into host • screen for rDNA of interest

  9. Ligation Reaction • mix foreign and vector DNA in presence of DNA ligase • optimal ratios of vector to insert generally 1.5-2:1 • intermolecular base-pairing can occur between compatible overhangs

  10. DNA Ligase • catalyzes the formation of phosphodiester bond between 5’-PO4 and 3’-OH • i.e., joins DNA fragments • typically carried out at lower temperatures (8-16o) for extended periods

  11. Intramolecular vs. Intermolecular

  12. Removal of 5’-PO4 Prevents Vector Self Ligation

  13. prepare foreign DNA • prepare vector • ligate target and vector • introduce rDNA to host • heat shock + Ca2+ • electroporation • select for transformants with antibiotic • screen for rDNA of interest

  14. Colony Lift • Sources of Probes • cloned genes • synthetic oligonucleotides • PCR products

  15. Identifying Recombinants • based on interruption of a gene • eg., lacZ gene = b-galactosidase • intact b-galactosidase produces blue color in presence of X-gal • -complementation or blue-white screening
