Efficient isolation of genes by using antibody probes.

Abstract

A sensitive and general technique has been devised for the dual purposes of cloning genes by using antibodies as probes and isolating unknown proteins encoded by cloned DNA. The method uses an expression vector, lambda gt11 (lac5 nin5 cI857 S100), that permits insertion of foreign DNA into the beta-galactosidase structural gene lacZ and promotes synthesis of hybrid proteins. Efficient screening of antigen-producing clones in lambda gt11 recombinant cDNA libraries is achieved through lysogeny of the phage library in hflA (high-frequency lysogeny) mutant cells of Escherichia coli; lysogens produce detectable quantities of antigen on induction, even when plated at high cell densities. The vector is also designed to facilitate the isolation of proteins specified by previously cloned gene sequences. Hybrid proteins encoded by recombinant phage accumulate in strains defective in protein degradation (lon mutants) in amounts amenable to large-scale purification. Antibodies produced against the portion of the hybrid encoded by foreign DNA could in turn be used to isolate the native polypeptide from eukaryotic cells.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
