Lactobacillus casei ssp. casei NCIB 4114 균주로부터 3,5kb의 플라스미드를 분리하여, 이 플라스미드를 함유하는 Escherichia coli-Lactobacillus 셔틀 백터(shuttle vector)들을 만들었다. tu틀 벡터들은 모두 electroporation에 의해 성공적으로 형질전환 되었다. Electroporation의 최적조건은 벡터DNA 1$\mu$g당 $2{\times}10^5$ 형질전환체의 효율이었고, 이들 벡터의 성공적 도입은 이들 벡터의 유산균에서의 음식등급 벡터로의 사용 가능성을 제시하였다.

Escherichia coli/Corynebacterium glutamicum shuttle vectors, pECCG1 and pECCG2 were constructed by joining a 3.00 kb cryptic plasmid pCB 1 from C. glutamicum and a 3.94 kb plasmid pACYC 177 from E. coli. By trimming unessential parts and introducing mulitiple cloning site into the plasmid pECCG 1, a plasmid pECCG122(5.1kb) was constructed. All the shuttle vectors were stably maintained in C. glutamicum up to about 40 generations irrespective of kanamycin addition in the medium. Threonine operon (homoserine dehydrogenase/homoserine kinase) and dapA gene (dihydrodipicolinate synthetase) of C. glutamicum were cloned into the plasmid pECCG122, and the resultant plasmids were designated pTN31 and pDHDP19, respectively. They were used to study the effect of cloned foreign gene on the stability of the plasmid pECCG122. Plasmids pTN31 and pDHDP19 were segregated rapidly from C. glutamicum when cultured in the medium without kanamycin. In medium with $50\mu${\g/ml} of kanamycin, their segregation rates were much slower than those in medium without kanamycin, but the danamycin addition didn't guarantee the complete maintenance of the plasmids in C. glutamicum.

알코올 생산성이 높은 Zymomonas 균주의 기질 이용성을 넓히기 위한 목적으로 natural replicon을 포함하며 적당한 항생제 저항표지를 갖는 plasmid vector의 제조를 시도하였다. Z. mobilis ATCC10988에서 분리된 몇 개의 plasmid중 3.9kb의 적당한 크기를 갖는 pZM3를 선정하여 수종의 제한효소로 처리하여 절편의 크기에 따라 유전자 지도를 작성하였다. pZM 3의 replicon과 pBR 325의 chloramphenicol 저항유전자를 포함한 재조합 plasmid인 pHZ22를 개발하고 이 plasmid vector가 숙주세포인 Z. mobilis ATCC31821에서 독립적으로 replication됨을 확인하였다. 또 하나의 항생제 저항표지로서 RP4의 tetracycline 저항유전자를 분리하여 pHZ22에 도입함으로써 pHZT224를 제조하였는데 이 plasmid vector도 Zymomonas로 conjugation에 의해 전이되어 안정하게 유지 되었다. 본 연구를 통하여 개발된 plasmid vector는 Z. mobilis와 E. coli에 공히 작용하는 shuttle vector 로서 외부 유전자를 Zymomonas에 도입시킬 수 있는 유용한 유전자 운반체임이 확인되었다.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are widely used for various food fermentation. With the recent advances in modern biotechnology, a variety of bio-products with the high economic values have been produced using microorganisms. For molecular cloning and expression studies on the gene of interest, E. coli has been widely used mainly because vector systems are fully developed. Most plasmid vectors currently used for E, coli carry antibiotic-resistant markers. As it is generally believed that the antibiotic resistance markers are potentially transferred to other bacteria, application of the plasmid vectors carrying antibiotic resistance genes as selection markers should be avoided, especially for human consump-tion. By contrast, as LAB have some desirable traits such that the they are GRAS(generally recognized as safe), able to secrete gene products out of cell, and their low protease activities, they are regarded as an ideal organism for the genetic manipulation, including cloning and expression of homologous and heterologous genes. However, the vec-tor systems established for LAB are stil insufficient to over-produce gene products, stably, limiting the use of these organisms for industrial applications. For a past decade, the two popular plasmid vectors, pAM$\beta$1 of Streptococcus faecalis and pGK12 theB. subtilis-E. coli shuttle vector derived from pWV01 of Lactococcus lactis ssp. cremoris wg 2, were most widely used to construct efficient chimeric vectors to be stably maintained in many industrial strains of LAB. Currently, non-antibiotic markers such as nisin resistance($Nis^{r}$ ) are explored for selecting recombi-nant clone. In addition, a gene encoding S-layer protein, slp/A, on bacterial cell wall was successfully recombined with the proper LAB vectors LAB vectors for excretion of the heterologous gene product from LAB Many food-grade host vec-tor systems were successfully developed, which allowed stable integration of multiple plasmid copies in the vec-mosome of LAB. More recently, an integration vector system based on the site-specific integration apparatus of temperate lactococcal bacteriophage, containing the integrase gene(int) and phage attachment site(attP), was pub-lished. In conclusion, when various vector system, which are maintain stably and expressed strongly in LAB, are developed, lost of such food products as enzymes, pharmaceuticals, bioactive food ingredients for human consump-tion would be produced at a full scale in LAB.

모기에 독성을 보이는 cry11Aa 유전자를 발현시키기 위해 cyanobacteria와 E. coli에서 발현 될 수 있는 두 가지 상이한 벡터 (pCYASK5-1, pCYASK5-2)를 제작하였다. 구축한 두 벡터를 E. coli에 형질전환하여 cry11Aa 유전자의 발현을 SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE)와 Western blot analysis을 통해 조사한 결과, pCYASK5-1와 pCYASK5-2으로 형질전환된 E. coli는 각각 72kDa과 64kDa 크기의 cry11Aa 유전자를 발현하였다. 형질전환체의 모기살충성을 조사한 결과, pCYASK5-1과 pCYASK5-2을 가지는 형질전환체는 빨간집 모기유충(Culex pipiens)에 대해 각각 93%, 89%의 치사율을 보였다.

A shuttle promoter-probe vector, pEB203, was derived from pBR322, pPL703 and pUB110. Using the vector, a useful DNA fragment, 319 bp EcoRI fragment, having strong promoter activity has been cloned from Bacillus subtills chromosomal DNA. Selection was based on chloramphenicol resistance which is dependent upon the introduction of DNA fragments allowing expression of a chloramphenicol acetyl transferase gene. The nucleotide sequence of the 319 bp fragment has been determined and the putative -35 and -10 region, ribosome binding site, and ATG initiation codon were observed. This promoter was named EB promoter and the resultant plasmid which can be used as an expression vector was named pEBP313. The crystal protein gene from B. thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki HD-73 was cloned downstream from the EB promoter without its own promoter. When the resultant plasmid, pBT313, was introduced into Escherichia coli and B. subtilis, efficient synthesis of crystal protein was observed in both cells, and the cp gene expression in B. subtilis begins early in the vegetative phase. The cell extracts from both clones were toxic to Hyphantria cunea larvae.

Finding new antimicrobial activities by functional metagenomics has been shown to depend on the heterologous host used to express the foreign DNA. Therefore, efforts are devoted to developing new tools for constructing metagenomic libraries in shuttle vectors replicatable in phylogenetically distinct hosts. Here we evaluated the use of the Escherichia coli-Bacillus subtilis shuttle vector pHT01 to construct a forest-soil metagenomic library. This library was screened in both hosts for antimicrobial activities against four opportunistic bacteria: Proteus vulgaris, Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Micrococcus luteus. A new antibacterial activity against B. cereus was found upon screening in B. subtilis. The new antimicrobial agent, sensitive to proteinase K, was not active when the corresponding DNA fragment was expressed in E. coli. Our results validate the use of pHT01 as a shuttle vector and B. subtilis as a host to isolate new activities by functional metagenomics.

Carboxydobacteria 의 일산화 탄소 산화에 대한 유전학적 연구를 위해 Pseudomonas caarboxydovorans 에 존재하는 pYK100 plasmid 와 pBR322 를 이용하여 pYK322 (7.2 kb, Ap, Tc) 와 pYK324 (7.2 kb, Ap, Tc) 등 두가지 재조합 plasmid shuttle 백테를 만들고, pYK100와 pACYC184를 이용하여 pYK210(5.2 kb, $CM^{r}$ ), pYK220 (5.2kb,$CM^{r}$ ), pYK230 (5.2 kb, $Cm^{r}$ ), pYK232 (5.2 kb, $CM^{r}$) 등 네가지 shuttle 벡터를 만들었다. 재조합된 벡터들은 보두 대장균에서 안정되게 복제되었다. pYK322 와 pYK220 을 이용한 carboxydobacteria 의 형질전환 실험에서 Bagdasarian 과 Timmis 의 방법 (Curr. Top. Microbiol. Immunol., 96 :47-67, 1982) 을 변형하여 0.2% succinate 가 포함된 무기염류배지에서 지수성장 중기까지 배댜ㄷ한 세균을 이용하고, 형질전환용액의 10 mM RbCI 을 100 mM KCI 로 대체하며, 형질전환용액 처리후 4.deg.C 에서의 방치시간을 12시간으로 하고, DNA첨가휴 45.deg.C 에서 3 분간 heat shock 을 준 경우에 높은 형질전환이 일어났다. 형질전환된 세균으로 부터 형질전환에 사용한 plasmid 를 발견할 수 없었는데, 이는 도입된 plasmid 가 염색체 DNA 에 결합되었기 때문인 것으로 추측된다.

In order to improve the transformation efficiency of the Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt)-Escherichia coli (E. coli) shuttle vector, pHT3101, we intended to minimize replication origin of Bt in pHT3101. For this, two modified shuttle vectors, pHT1K and pHT261, in which 2.9 kb of replication origin of Bt were shortened to 1 kb and 261 bp, respectively as previously reported. Whereas the pHT1K could efficiently transform Bt into the antibiotic resistant, no transformants were obtained with pHT261. Furthermore, pHT1K showed higher transformation efficiency compared to that of parent vector, pHT3101. Therefore, pHT1K might be a very useful Bt-E. coli shuttle vector carrying minimal replication origin of Bt.
