We describe a transformation system for the ciliate Stylonychia mytilus. The neomycin resistance gene from Escherichia coli transposon Tn5, which codes for the enzyme phosphotransferase and confers resistance to the antibiotic G 418, was ligated into macronuclear ;gene-size' DNA molecules. Using this recombinant DNA for transformation experiments we show that the gene is replicated and expressed in transformed cells.
我们描述了一种对缘毛目纤毛虫小膜虫的转化系统。来自大肠杆菌转座子 Tn5 的新霉素抗性基因,其编码的酶磷酸转移酶使细胞对抗生素 G418 产生抗性,被连接到巨核 ;基因大小' DNA 分子中。使用这种重组 DNA 进行转化实验,我们表明该基因在转化细胞中被复制和表达。
