Lecture 9 Recombinant DNA, Vector Design and Construction Neal Stewart and Dave Mann Discussion questions 1. What basic elements should be included in the design and construction of an efficient ubiquitous and constitutive plant gene expression vector? 2. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of recombination cloning technologies versus traditional restriction digestion and ligation technology. 3. Describe a novel strategy to generate a T-DNA vector that allows the expression of several genes from a single position in the genome. 4. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using plastid vectors for plant transformation and gene expression. 5. Describe ways in which transgene technology could be made more acceptable to the public. Nucleotide base pairing A’s pair with T’s G’s pair with C’s Nucleotide base pairing occurs through “hydrogen bonding” Strands have directionality from 5’ to 3’ and when paired strands are in “antiparallel” orientation Figure 8.1 Transgenic plantsAgrobacterium Any gene, any organism The new plant will pass the transgene to its progeny through seed. Biolistics Steps to make transgenic plants— lotta transformation • Make transformation cloning plasmid vector • Transform bacteria (usually Escherichia coli) to maintain clone • Characterize plasmid (restriction digest and sequencing) • Transform Agrobacterium (if using Agrobacterium) and characterize • Transform plant Recombinant DNA history 1966 The genetic code is deciphered when biochemical analysis reveals which codons determine which amino acids. 1970 Hamilton Smith, at Johns Hopkins Medical School, isolates the first restriction enzyme, an enzyme that cuts DNA at a very specific nucleotide sequence. Over the next few years, several more restriction enzymes will be isolated. 1972 Stanley Cohen and Herbert Boyer combine their efforts to create recombinant DNA. This technology will be the beginning of the biotechnology industry. 1976 Herbert Boyer cofounds Genentech, the first firm founded in the United States to apply recombinant DNA technology 1978 Somatostatin, which regulates human growth hormones, is the first human protein made using recombinant technology. 1983 Kary Mullis does PCR. 1985 Kary Mullis publishes method.

The T-DNA is flanked by 25-bp direct repeats, known as the left and right border sequences (LB and RB, respectively). The vir genes are required for T-DNA processing and transfer to the plant cell. The T-DNA is stably integrated into the nuclear genome of the plant cell, and genes encoded within it, necessary for the biosynthesis of the plant growth hormones, cytokinin and auxin, result in the formation of the characteristic tumorous growth associated with crown gall disease. The T-DNA also encodes opines (nopaline and octapine) that provide the Agrobacterium with an exclusive nitrogen source. This provides Agrobacterium carrying the Ti plasmid with a competitive advantage over Agrobacterium that do not.

What are some different applications in plants? • Functional analysis of open reading frame (ORFs) • Overexpression and knockdown (RNAi) of specific genes. • Multigenic traits for crop improvement • Analysis of the expression level/specificity/ inducibility of promoters RNA interference pathway Figure 8.14 Figure 8.14 Plant gene expression vectors for conventional cloning using restriction digestion and ligation (a) and Gateway® recombination cloning (b). The first vectors shown in (a) and (b) are designed to allow a gene to be ectopically expressed in a plant cell. The second vectors shown for each category contain the GFP (green fluorescent protein) gene. These vectors are designed to effect protein fusions with GFP to help identify the subcellular target of a protein under investigation. Ideally, three vectors for each type are frequently made, one for each reading frame, to ensure that a perfect fusion between the GOI and the marker gene is made. The insert DNA must be in an “open” ORF configuration (described in the text) so that no stop codon is present between the GOI and the marker gene. Figure 8.15 Figure 8.15 Gene silencing in plants can be achieved using inverted repeat transgene constructs that encode a hairpin RNA (hpRNA). Using Gateway® cloning technology, the production of such invertedrepeat transgene constructs can be achieved efficiently, since DNA fragment orientation during the excision and integration process is maintained and the Gateway® recombination cassettes are arranged in opposite orientations with respect to each other. Figure 8.16 Figure 8.16 Multisite Gateway® allows several DNA fragments to be cloned within a single vector construct. More recent advances in the design of new att recombination sites have permitted the assembly of up to five DNA molecules within a single vector construct, but none have been designed as yet for plant transformation Multiple promoters from the MRS2/MGT gene family fused to the GUS gene and expressed in Arabidopsis thaliana Gebert et al., The Plant Cell, Vol. 21: 4018–4030, December 2009 Figure 8.17 Figure 8.17 Excision of selectable marker gene following T-DNA insertion into the plant genome. XVE is a chimeric transcription factor. It contains three functional domains, a LexA DNA binding domain (X), the VP16 activation domain (V), and the estrogen receptor binding domain (E). The G10-90 promoter drives the constitutive and ubiquitous expression of XVE in transformed plant cells. The XVE protein is then bound as a monomer in the cytosol of the cell by a chaperone protein HSP90, and the target gene is transcriptionally inactive. Application of -estradiol causes a conformational change in E, which leads to the release of HSP90 and dimerization of the receptor. On dimerization, the receptor is activated, allowing the protein to translocate to the nucleus of the cell where it binds OLexA binding sites of the promoter that is placed upstream of the Cre recombinase. The VP16 activation Figure 8.18 Figure 8.18 Site-specific integration is achieved by two homologous recombination events, one on either side of the DNA fragment to be integrated. During insertion, the targeted region of the vector replaces the targeted region of the plastid genome, and the vector backbone is lost. The inserted DNA fragment contains a selectable marker (here, the aadA gene encoding aminoglycoside 3adenylyltransferase, providing spectinomycin resistance) and can contain either a single gene flanked by independent 5 and 3 regulatory regions, including a promoter; a 5 UTR and a 3 UTR; or, as is the case here, multiple genes with a single promoter that regulates the Vectors derived from plant sequences • Public acceptance of GMOs linked to concerns of the origin of DNA employed • Ironically, wild-type plant cells already contain bacterially-derived genomes • T-DNA could be replaced with P-DNA • Replace viral promoters with plant promoters Figure 7.20 A loxP-FRT loxP-FRT LB RB LAT52 FLP Recombinase NOS Pollen-specific promoter LAT52 activates recombinase in tobacco pollen excision 35S p GUS:NPTII NOS Pollen genome loxP FRT LAT52 FLP Recombinase NOS 35S p GUS:NPTII NOS loxP-FRT RB LB Pollen genome B Luo et al. 2007.
