Cloning of 17S-Ribosomal RNA Gene from the Hygromycin Resistant Tetrahymena thermophila
Hygromycin내성 Tetrahymena thermophila의 17S-Ribosomal RNA유전자의 Cloning
Abstract
17S-ribosomal RNA gene from the hygromycin resistant protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila hmr 3 was cloned on E. coli vector pBR 322 as part of study to work the 17S-rRNA structure and the mechanism of hygromycin resistance. The 17S-rDNA was inserted into the Hind 111 site of pBR 322. The clones having recombinant plasmid were selected by the method of colony hybridization with a 17S-rDNA probe of wild type B1868. The orientation of 17S-rDNA insert was located near the tetracycline resistant gene of pBR 322 in a clone 5-19 with the recombinant plasmid.
원생동물인 Tetrahymena thermophila의 17S-rDNA구조 및 hygromycin 내성 기구에 대한 연구의 일부로서 hygromycin 내성변이주 hmr3의 17S-rDNA를 대장균의 vector pBR 322에 cloning하였다. 우선 rDNA는 hot phenol-cresol 용액으로 추출하여 제한효소 Hind III 처리로서 약 2.2kbp의 17S-rDNA를 agarose 전기영동상에서 분리하였다. 이를 pBR 322에 cloning하여 wild type의 17S-rDNA probe와 colony hybridization시켜 선별하였다. 그중 5-19 균주의 recombinant plasmid로부터 17S-rDNA 의 전사 orientation위치가 pBR322의 tetracyline내성 유전자 쪽으로 삽입되어 있는 것을 확인하였다.
