The precise assembly of defined DNA sequences into plasmids is an essential task in bioscience research. While a number of molecular cloning techniques have been developed, many methods require specialized expensive reagents or laborious experimental procedure. Not surprisingly, conventional cloning techniques based on restriction digestion and ligation are still commonly used in routine DNA cloning. Here, we describe a simple, fast, and economical cloning method based on RecA- and RecET-independent in vivo recombination of DNA fragments with overlapping ends using E. coli. All DNA fragments were prepared by a 2-consecutive PCR procedure with Q5 DNA polymerase and used …
Mrub_0860, Mrub_0701 And Mrub_2285 Are Orthologous To E. Coli B2892, B2562 And B3863 Within The Recfor Pathway For Homologous Recombination, Bailey Englund, Dr. Lori Scott
Mrub_0860, Mrub_0701 And Mrub_2285 Are Orthologous To E. Coli B2892, B2562 And B3863 Within The Recfor Pathway For Homologous Recombination, Bailey Englund, Dr. Lori Scott
Meiothermus ruber Genome Analysis Project
This project is part of the Meiothermus ruber genome analysis project, which uses the bioinformatics tool associated with the Guiding Education through Novel Investigation – Annotation Collaboration Toolkit (GENI-ACT) to predict the gene function. We investigated the biological function of the genes Mrub_0860, Mrub_0701,and Mrub_2285. We predicted that Mrub_0860 (DNA coordinates 842934..844868 on the forward strand) encodes for the enzyme single-stranded DNA-specific exonuclease, which is in the first step of homologous recombination via the RecFOR pathway (KEGG map number 03440). The E. coli K12 MG1655 ortholog is predicted to be b2892, which has the gene identifier …
