Hybrid plasmid pSP97 carrying the entire genome of polyoma virus (PY), inserted into bacterial vector psV3, transforms yeast cells with the frequency 1 x 10(-2). Plasmid pSP97 is capable of autonomous replication in S. cerevisiae, while its structure remains unaltered, the stability of hybrid plasmid in transformants is 44%--100%. Plasmid pSP155 consisting of Ori-containing DNA segment from polyoma, pBR322 and yeast gene arg4, transforms yeast cells with the frequency 5 x 10(-3), the stability of plasmid in transformants is 23%--29%. Two types of plasmids were isolated from transformants: one was identical to SP155, while the another differed structurally and phenotypically from SP155. Plasmids pSP113 and pSP114, in addition to pBR322 and yeast gene arg4, contain a viral DNA segment that encodes genes from small and middle T-antigens. These plasmids transform yeast cells with low frequency (2 x 10(-4), 3 x 10(-5)), the stability of plasmids in yeast transformants is 100%. However, hybrid plasmids identical to pSP113 were isolated from transformants. Structural rearrangements have been observed in pSP114, which carries the arg4 gene in reversed orientation compared to pSP113.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.

D010957 Plasmids Extrachromosomal, usually CIRCULAR DNA molecules that are self-replicating and transferable from one organism to another. They are found in a variety of bacterial, archaeal, fungal, algal, and plant species. They are used in GENETIC ENGINEERING as CLONING VECTORS. Episomes,Episome,Plasmid
D011120 Polyomavirus A genus of potentially oncogenic viruses of the family POLYOMAVIRIDAE. These viruses are normally present in their natural hosts as latent infections. The virus is oncogenic in hosts different from the species of origin.

D004262 DNA Restriction Enzymes Enzymes that are part of the restriction-modification systems. They catalyze the endonucleolytic cleavage of DNA sequences which lack the species-specific methylation pattern in the host cell's DNA. Cleavage yields random or specific double-stranded fragments with terminal 5'-phosphates. The function of restriction enzymes is to destroy any foreign DNA that invades the host cell. Most have been studied in bacterial systems, but a few have been found in eukaryotic organisms. They are also used as tools for the systematic dissection and mapping of chromosomes, in the determination of base sequences of DNAs, and have made it possible to splice and recombine genes from one organism into the genome of another.

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
