In-vitro Mutagenesis01:16

In-vitro Mutagenesis

To learn more about the function of a gene, researchers can observe what happens when the gene is inactivated or “knocked out,” by creating genetically engineered knockout animals. Knockout mice have been particularly useful as models for human diseases such as cancer, Parkinson’s disease, and diabetes.
Conservative Site-specific Recombination and Phase Variation02:53

Conservative Site-specific Recombination and Phase Variation

Because the DNA segments are cut and reorganized in a direction-specific manner, site-specific recombination has emerged as an efficient genetic engineering technique. Flippase and Cyclization recombinases or Flp and Cre, respectively, are two members of the tyrosine recombinase family derived from bacteriophages, that are used to mediate site-specific DNA insertions, deletions, and targeted expression of proteins in mammalian cell lines.
The recognition sites for Cre recombinase called LoxP...

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Genetics
  • Yeast Biology

Background:

  • Precise gene replacement is crucial for understanding gene function.
  • Existing methods often require selection and can introduce unwanted mutations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a highly efficient, selection-free method for exact gene replacement in budding yeast.
  • To enable direct phenotypic analysis of essential and lethal gene replacements.

Main Methods:

  • Engineered a GAL-HO MATa-inc system for targeted HO endonuclease cleavage.
  • Integrated a partial replacement allele and HO cut site adjacent to the wild-type locus.
  • Induced recombination for gene conversion, replacing the endogenous allele without markers.

Main Results:

  • Achieved at least 50% exact gene replacement in the cell population without selection.
  • Successfully replaced essential genes (CDC28) and non-essential genes (CDH1, CLB3) with mutated alleles.
  • Demonstrated direct phenotypic analysis of lethal gene replacements.

Conclusions:

  • The developed method offers a rapid and efficient approach for precise gene editing in yeast.
  • Eliminates the need for selection, avoiding suppressor mutations and enabling direct analysis of gene function, including lethality.
