DNA Replication02:40

DNA Replication

59.6K
DNA replication involves the separation of the two strands of the double helix, with each strand serving as a template from which the new complementary strand is copied.  After replication, each double-stranded DNA includes one parental or “old” strand and one “new” strand. This is known as semiconservative replication. The resulting DNA molecules have the same sequence and are divided equally into the two daughter cells.

The DNA Replication Fork01:02

The DNA Replication Fork

41.1K
An organism’s genome needs to be duplicated in an efficient and error-free manner for its growth and survival. The replication fork is a Y-shaped active region where two strands of DNA are separated and replicated continuously. The coupling of DNA unzipping and complementary strand synthesis is a characteristic feature of a replication fork.   Organisms with small circular DNA, such as E. coli, often have a single origin of replication; therefore, they have only two replication...

Orthogonal Trajectories01:26

Orthogonal Trajectories

71
Orthogonal trajectories describe the geometric relationship between two families of curves that intersect each other at right angles. One illustrative case involves a family of parabolas that open sideways along the x-axis. These curves share a common shape but differ by a scaling parameter, resulting in a set of curves that all pass through the origin and widen at different rates.Determining Orthogonal TrajectoriesTo identify the orthogonal trajectories for these parabolas, the first step...

S-Cdk Initiates DNA Replication

5.7K
The cell cycle is a series of events leading to DNA duplication followed by the division of cell content to form two daughter cells. The cell cycle progresses in four stages—the cell increases in size (gap 1 or G1-phase), duplicates its DNA (synthesis or S-phase), prepares to divide (gap 2 or G2-phase), and divides (mitosis or M-phase).
Two states at the origin of replication
In eukaryotes, the initiation of replication occurs at many sites on the chromosomes, called the origins of...

Mutual Inductance01:24

Mutual Inductance

3.8K
Inductance is the property of a device that tells us how effectively it induces an emf in another device. In other words, it is a physical quantity that expresses the effectiveness of a given device.
When two circuits carrying time-varying currents are close to one another, the magnetic flux through each circuit varies because of the changing current in the other circuit. Consequently, an emf is induced in each circuit by the changing current in the other. Therefore, this type of emf is called...

Area of Science:

  • Synthetic biology
  • Molecular biology
  • Yeast genetics

Background:

  • Orthogonal DNA replication systems are crucial for advanced genetic engineering.
  • The pGKL1/TP-DNAP1 system in yeast enables in vivo continuous evolution by allowing high mutation rates without affecting genomic stability.
  • A need exists for additional orthogonal replication systems to expand synthetic biology toolkits.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish and characterize a second orthogonal DNA replication system in yeast.
  • To demonstrate the orthogonality of the new system with both genomic replication and the existing pGKL1 system.
  • To explore the potential for engineering error-prone polymerases within this new system for applications like continuous evolution.

Main Methods:

  • Construction and characterization of the pGKL2 plasmid and its cognate DNA polymerase, TP-DNAP2.
  • Demonstration of pGKL2 replication in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
  • Assessment of the orthogonality of pGKL2/TP-DNAP2 with genomic DNA replication.
  • Testing mutual orthogonality between pGKL1/TP-DNAP1 and pGKL2/TP-DNAP2 systems.
  • Engineering of error-prone TP-DNAP2 variants.

Main Results:

  • The pGKL2/TP-DNAP2 pair forms a functional orthogonal DNA replication system in yeast.
  • This system is orthogonal to the host's genomic replication.
  • pGKL2/TP-DNAP2 is mutually orthogonal to the previously established pGKL1/TP-DNAP1 system.
  • Custom genes can be encoded and expressed from pGKL2.
  • Error-prone TP-DNAP2 variants were successfully engineered.

Conclusions:

  • The successful development of a second, mutually orthogonal DNA replication system (pGKL2/TP-DNAP2) significantly expands the toolkit for yeast synthetic biology.
  • This system, with its tunable error rates, offers new possibilities for cell-based continuous evolution and genetic recording.
  • The availability of two independent orthogonal replication systems opens avenues for complex genetic manipulations and synthetic genome design.
