  • Positional clonging (map-based cloning) of mutations or genetic variations has been served as an invaluable tool to understand in-vivo functions of genes and to identify molecular components underlying phenotypes of interest. Mice homozygous for the cerebellar deficient folia (cdf) mutation are ataxic, with cerebellar hypoplasia and abnormal lobulation of the cerebellum. In the cdf mutant cerebellum approximately 40% of Purkinje cells are ectopically located within the white matter and the inner granule cell layer (IGL). To identify the cdf gene, a high-resolution genetic map for the cdf-gene-encompassing region was constructed using 1997 F2 mice generated from C3H/HeSnJ-cdf/cdf and CAST/Ei intercross. The cdf gene showed complete linkage disequilibrium with three tightly linked markers D6Mit208, D6Mit359, and D6Mit225. A contig using YAC, BAC, and P1 clones was constructed for the cdf critical region to identify the gene. A deletion in the cdf critical region on chromosome 6 that removes approximately 150 kb of DNA selection. cdf mutant mice with the transgenic copy of the identified gene restored the brain abnormalities of the mutant mice. The positional cloning of cdf gene provides a good example showing the identification of a gene could lead to finding a new component of important molecular pathways.

  • Living cells are continuously subject to all sorts of stress such as ultraviolet rays on skin cells. Tests made in various laboratories show that when young fibroblasts (Le. at the beginning of their proliferate life) were repeatedly put under stress at subletal doses, they acquired a phenotype similar to Senescence Induced Prematurely by Stress (SIPS). The work presented hereafter was made on a new model of senescence induced prematurely by stress from ultraviolet Brays (UVB). The human fibroblast model was put under repeated UVB stress, causing SIPS. Several ageing biomarkers were used in order to characterise the cells that underwent stress:. an increase in the proportion of positive cells with senescence associated $\beta$-galactosidase activity (SA $\beta$-gal) measured by a specific coloration,. the proportion in the different morphological stages that fibroblasts undergo during culture visualised by microscopic observation,. the expression of genes known for overexpressing during senescence, particularly fibronectin and apolipoprotein J, measured by Real Time-PCR,. the common deletion of 4,977 bp in mitochondrial DNA, evaluated by nested PCR. Studying the variation of these 4 biomarkers, we have evaluated the protective effect of a Laminaria digitata extract (LDE) that can be used as a natural active ingredient for anti-ageing cosmetics.

  • Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a member of the glycoprotein hormone family which includes FSH. hCG TSH. These hormone family is characterized by a heterodimeric structure composed a common $\alpha$-subunit noncovalently linked to a hormone specific $\beta$-subunit. To determine u and $\beta$ -subunits can be synthesized as a single polypeptide chain (tethered-hCG) and also display biological activity, the tethered-hCC and -FSH molecule by fusing the carboxyl terminus of the hCG $\beta$-subunit to the amino terminus of the $\alpha$-subunit was constructed. To determine the importance of $\alpha$ COOH -terminal amino acid, we also deleted the $\alpha$ COOH-terminal amino acids. The expressing vectors were transfected into CHO-K 1 cells. The tethered-wthCG and -wtFSH was efficiently secreted. The $\alpha$ Δ83hCG and $\alpha$ Δ 83FSH mutants had no secretion. These results are the first conclusive evidence that COOH-terminal amino acids are very important for secretion in human glycoprotein hormone $\alpha$-subunit. These results demonstrated that the $\alpha$ Δ83hCG and $\alpha$ Δ 83FSH mutants could be play a pivotal role in the secretion of tethered-molecule.

  • A toluene-oxidizing strain of Pseudomanas mendocina KR1 containing toluene-4-mono-oxygenase (TMO) completely degrades TCE with the addition of toluene as a co-substrate in aerobic condition. In order to construct in situ bioremediation system for TCE degradation without any growth-stimulating nutrients or toxic inducer such as toluene, we used the carbon-starvation promoter of Pseudomonas putida MK1 (Kim, Y. et al., J. bacteriol., 1995). Upon entry into the stationary phase due to the deprivation of nutrients, this promoter is strongly induced without further cell growth. The TMO gene cluster (4.5 kb) was spliced downstream of the carbon starvation promoter of Pseudomonas putida MK1, already cloned in pUC19. TMO under the carbon starvation promoter was not expressed in E. coli cells either in stationary phase or exponential phase. For TMO expression in Pseudomonas strains, tmo and carbon starvation promoter region were recloned into a modified broad-host range vector pMMB67HES which was made from pMMB67HE(8.9 kb) by deletion of tac promoter and lacIq (about 1.5 kb). Indigo was produced by TMO under the carbon starvation promoter in a Pseudomonas strain of post-exponential phase on M9 (0.2% glucose and 1mM indole) or LB. 18% of TCE was degraded in 14 hours after entering the stationary phase at the initial concentration of 6.6 ${\mu}$M in liquid phase.

  • Efficient intron deletion with the correct splicing of the two exons of the human proinsulin gene was accomplished by a novel stepwise method using genomic DNA [5]. The two exons were separately amplified in two steps, using the second step primers that incorporated additional bases complementary to the other exon. The fragments were combined in a third PCR reaction. Cloning and sequencing of the PCR product demonstrated the correct splicing of the two exons. Expression studies, using the pET9a vector, revealed a protein band with the correct size with respect to human proinsulin as confirmed by SDS-PAGe and Western blot. Proinsulin concentration was estimated to be around 200 mg per liter culture, expressed as inclusion bodies. Protein secretion to the culture medium and periplasmic space was achieved by cloning in the pEZZ18 vector.

  • Catabolic pathways for the degradation of various aromatics by Sphingomonas yanoikuyae Bl are intertwined, joining at the level of substituted benzoates, which are further degraded vita ring cleavage reactions. The mutant strain EK497, which was constructed by deleting a large DNA region containing most of the genes for biphenyl, naphthalene, m-xylene, and m-toluate degradation, was unable to grow on all of the aromatics tested except for benzoate as the sole source of carbon and energy.S. yanoikuyae EK497 was found to possess only catechol ortho-ring cleavage activity due to deletion of the genes for the meta-cleavage pathway. Wild-type S. yanoikuyae Bl grown on benzoate has both catechol orthoand meta-cleavage activity. However, m-xylene and m-toluate, which are metabolized through methylbenzoate, and biphenyl, which is metabolized through benzoate, induce only the meta-cleavage pathway, suggesting the presence of a substrate-dependent induction mechanism.
