    摘要: Fungal artificial chromosome (FAC) vectors are disclosed. A vector can be replicated in a bacterial or a fungal host, and can comprise an insert of heterologous DNA up to about 500 kilobases. A vector can be used for cloning and expressing a secondary metabolite (SM) gene cluster. An insert sequence can be modified by homologous recombination. A vector can be a plasmid comprising bacterial and fungal origins of replication, as well as bacterial and fungal selection marker genes. Also disclosed are vectors that can be integrated into a fungal genome, and dual function vectors which can be replicated in a bacterial or a fungal host and can also be integrated into a fungal genome. Also disclosed are methods of generating plasmid libraries including vectors comprising intact SM gene clusters.

    摘要: A replicon, in which a nucleotide sequence encoding a cell killing function is regulatably expressed when the replicon is harbored in one type of host cell (primary host cell), so that cells harboring the replicon are killed under conditions under which the cell killing function is expressed, and the nucleotide sequence encoding the cell killing function is regulatably or constitutively expressed when the replicon is harbored in another type of host cell (secondary host cell), so that cells harboring the replicon are invariably killed or killed under conditions under which the cell killing function is expressed, may be used in a method of active biological containment of cells under defined environmental conditions. The biological containment principle may be utilized in the industrial production of a biosynthetic product by recombinant DNA techniques, when deliberately releasing a genetically engineered microorganism to the natural environment or in the preparation of a live vaccine. The expression of the cell killing function may be regulated by means of a promoter.
