Experimental Details
deoxycycline-regulation of RNase expression
- regulation of expression from deoxycline-induced promoter, described in Herrero Yeast 1998 14(12):1127-38
- sequence file for pCM224 which encodes tTA and CYC1-repressible promoter due to 2 copies of tetO
- can excise relevant regulatory module (tTA driven by ADH1 and CYC1 with 2XtetO) on RI, BamHI fragment
pRS416
- sequence file for pRS416
- can clone tTA/CYC1tetO2/mtRNT1 into RI, BamHI bkb
mtRnt1
Steps to target RNT1 to mitochondrial matrix
- 1. downloaded genomic sequence of RNT1 from SGD. RNT1/YMR239C on chromosome XIII from coordinates 749676 to 748261 on Crick (bottom) strand.
- sequence file for RNT1 genomic DNA
- 2. removed EcoRI site from coding sequence of RNT1. Changed GAA(bp721-723)TTC(bp724-726) at Glu240Phe241 to GAG TTC which removed RI but keeps GluPhe.
- sequence file for RNT1 genomic DNA with silent mutation to remove EcoRI
- Favorite Enzymes: AvaI, BamHI, BglII, EcoRI, HincII, HindIII, PstI, SmaI, XbaI, XmnI
- 3. added mitochondrial targeting sequence from HEM1 to 5' end of RNT1
- described as sufficient for mt localization of b-gal
- does not change restriction analysis with favorite enzymes
