摘要:
Intensely crimson colonies are obtained from Streptomyces coelicolor DSM 3030 by total digestion of the total DNA, cloning into a suitable vector, and transformation of Streptomyces lividans. Re-isolation of the plasmid DNA and cutting with BamHI results in fragments about 3.4 to 9 kb in length, on which is located the gene which determines production of the coloring agent. This gene is suitable as marker, in particular as inactivation marker, in Streptomycetes.

Intensely blue-black colonies are obtained from Streptomyces coelicolor DSM 3030 by total digestion of the total DNA, cloning into a suitable vector, and transformation of a streptomycetes recipient strain. Re-isolation of the plasmid DNA and cutting with BamHI results in a 5.5 kb fragment on which the gene for the coloring agent is located. This gene is suitable as marker, in particular as inactivation marker, in Streptomycetes.
摘要:
The kil-kor system from the plasmid pIJ101 can be utilized for regulated gene expression in Streptomycetes. For this, the KorA protein is either inactivated or eliminated to "switch on" a particular gene.
摘要:
Starting from the Streptomycetes plasmids pSG2, pSG5 and pSVH1, "shuttle vectors" which, in additon to a E. coli replicon, also contain suitable selection markers for E. coli and Streptomycetes are constructed. These shuttle vectors replicate both in E. coli and in Streptomycetes, and they can be used for cloning and expression of foreign DNA.

S. ghanaensis DSM 2932 is resistant to gentamicin at up to 20 .mu.g/ml. Total digestion of the genomic DNA with BglII, incorporation of the restriction fragments into a suitable plasmid, and selection using gentamicin results in gentamicin-resistant clones which contain a 7 kb fragment with the gentamicin-resistance gene. The plasmid pPH1JI likewise contains a gentamicin-resistance gene located on a 2.3 kb HindIII-BamHI fragment. These genes are suitable as markers, in particular for Streptomycetes vectors.
摘要:
The plasmid pSG5 which, because of its molecular length of about 12.7 kb and its four unique restriction sites, can be used for the construction of plasmid vectors for Streptomycetes, for example of shuttle vectors between Streptomycetes and other microorganisms, can be isolated from a culture of Streptomyces ghanaensis DSM 2932.
摘要:
The invention relates to deacetylase genes, to processes for their isolation, and to their use, in particular for the production of transgenic plants using tissue-specific promoters. It is possible to prevent the development of certain parts in these plants in a targeted manner. With the aid of deacetylase genes, it is furthermore possible to identify and isolate tissue-specific promoters in transgenic plants.
摘要:
Selection of Streptomyces viridochromogenes DSM 4112 for resistance to phosphinothricyl-alanyl-alanine (PTT) results in PTT-resistance selectants. The DNA fragment which carries the phosphinothricin(PTC)-resistance gene is obtained from the total DNA of these selectants by cutting with BamHI, cloning of a fragment 4.0 kb in size, and selection for PTT resistance. This gene is suitable for the production of PTC-resistant plants, and as a resistance marker and for the selective N-acetylation of the L-form of racemic PTC.
摘要:
The phosphinothricin (PTC)-resistance gene isolated from the genome of Streptomyces viridochromogenes DSM 40736 is, after adaptation to the codon usage in plants, synthesized and incorporated into gene structures which make plants resistant to PTC after expression therein.
