Site-directed mutagenesis is a powerful tool that has enabled molecular biologists to perform functional analysis of altered nucleic acids and proteins. Newer PCR-based mutagenesis techniques have reduced the process of mutagenesis to as little as one day. While each technique has its advantages, both require a strategy to isolate the desired clone from a population that contains mutagenized and wild-type genes. In this report, we describe a World Wide Web-based computer program that facilitates the design of mutagenic primers such that successfully mutagenized clones can be identified by the presence or absence of a unique restriction site.
定点诱变是一种强大的工具,它使分子生物学家能够对改变的核酸和蛋白质进行功能分析。更新的基于聚合酶链反应(PCR)的诱变技术已将诱变过程缩短至仅一天。虽然每种技术都有其优点,但两者都需要一种策略,以便从包含诱变基因和野生型基因的群体中分离出所需的克隆。在本报告中,我们描述了一种基于万维网的计算机程序,该程序有助于设计诱变引物,以便通过独特限制酶切位点的存在或缺失来鉴定成功诱变的克隆。
