    PROTOCOL Identification and analysis of essential Aspergillus nidulans genes using the heterokaryon rescue technique Aysha H Osmani, Berl R Oakley & Stephen A Osmani Department of Molecular Genetics, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio 43210, USA. Correspondence should be addressed to S.A.O. ([email protected]) Published online 29 December 2006; corrected online 25 January 2007 (details online); doi:10.1038/nprot.2006.406 s In the heterokaryon rescue technique, gene deletions are carried out using the pyrG nutritional marker to replace the coding region of target genes via homologous recombination in Aspergillus nidulans. If an essential gene is deleted, the null allele is maintained in spontaneously generated heterokaryons that consist of two genetically distinct types of nuclei. One nuclear type has the essential gene deleted but has a functional pyrG allele (pyrG+). The other has the wild-type allele of the essential gene but lacks a functional pyrG allele (pyrG–). Thus, a simple growth test applied to the uninucleate asexual spores formed from primary transformants can natureprotocol / m identify deletions of genes that are non-essential from those that are essential and can only be propagated by heterokaryon rescue. o c . The growth tests also enable the phenotype of the null allele to be defined. Diagnostic PCR can be used to confirm deletions at the e r molecular level. This technique is suitable for large-scale gene-deletion programs and can be completed within 3 weeks. u t a n . w w INTRODUCTION w / / : One of the most fundamental pieces of information regarding the non-essential gene is deleted, the resulting strains are able to grow p t t function of any gene is whether the gene is essential or not.

  • Bacterial Survival in Microscopic Surface Wetness Maor Grinberg†, Tomer Orevi†, Shifra Steinberg, Nadav Kashtan*
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Bacterial survival in microscopic surface wetness Maor Grinberg†, Tomer Orevi†, Shifra Steinberg, Nadav Kashtan* Department of Plant Pathology and Microbiology, Robert H. Smith Faculty of Agriculture, Food, and Environment, Hebrew University, Rehovot, Israel Abstract Plant leaves constitute a huge microbial habitat of global importance. How microorganisms survive the dry daytime on leaves and avoid desiccation is not well understood. There is evidence that microscopic surface wetness in the form of thin films and micrometer-sized droplets, invisible to the naked eye, persists on leaves during daytime due to deliquescence – the absorption of water until dissolution – of hygroscopic aerosols. Here, we study how such microscopic wetness affects cell survival. We show that, on surfaces drying under moderate humidity, stable microdroplets form around bacterial aggregates due to capillary pinning and deliquescence. Notably, droplet-size increases with aggregate-size, and cell survival is higher the larger the droplet. This phenomenon was observed for 13 bacterial species, two of which – Pseudomonas fluorescens and P. putida – were studied in depth. Microdroplet formation around aggregates is likely key to bacterial survival in a variety of unsaturated microbial habitats, including leaf surfaces.

White round colonies will be present in HLP is Lactobacillus or Pediococcus is present. Teal or blue bacterial colonies will be present on SDA if bacterial contamination is present. LCSM provides the best means for a brewery to test for the presence of Non-Saccharomyces wild yeast. This medium inhibits, or markedly restricts, growth of brewery culture yeast while permitting growth of a variety of wild yeast using cupric sulfate. Some specific brewing yeast strains (typically Hefeweizen, Belgian strains) of brewer’s yeast show weak growth on LWYM. TAKING THE SAMPLE: How to take a sterile sample from a heat exchanger: • Collect wort from a valve after heat exchanger in sterile 50 ml tube (provided) How to take a fermentor/brite tank sample: • Use cotton swab to swab any sediment in the zwiggle/stop cock.

Normal operation of this process results in a floc-forming bacterial mixture, which settles rapidly. However, filamentous bacteria can cause sludge bulking, which interferes with the compaction and settling of flocs. A common method to control sludge bulking is adding a chemical such as chlorine to the activated sludge basin, which kills not only the problematic bacteria, but also the essential floc-forming bacteria. Bacteriophages (phages) are viruses that only infect bacteria. It is hypothesized that phages of filamentous bacteria can be added to the activated sludge basin to control sludge bulking, rather than a chemical.

  • UW Igem Lab Training Exercise
    iGEM Training UW iGEM Lab Training Exercise The overall goal of the lab exercise is to transform E. coli cells previously unable to express GFP (green fluorescent protein), to now express GFP. GFP expression is visible when the cells are viewed under UV light. This is done by turning on a gene, which is achieved by positioning a promoter in front of the sequence and assembling it into another vector. This is done all in one step. (Drawn on board) To separate out the plasmid DNA (which acts as the vector to contain our gene of interest) we use the cells inherent chemical nature and manipulate it to differentiate the cell components. Centrifuging is a big component of the separation of cell components by spinning at high speeds. It separates components of different sized in a mixture and is therefore used to separate out different cell components. Important Notes on Centrifugation… (When centrifuging make sure that tubes are placed across each other so that the centrifuge is balanced. If you have an odd number of tubes, a microfuge tube filled with the equivalent amount of water can be used as a “dummy tube”. Orient the tube with the hinge facing up so you can anticipate where the pellet is going to form, as it may be difficult to see a pellet in some miniprep procedures) MOST IMPORTANTLY!: This is a sequential process and the samples that you are working with will be carried on to the next day. If at any point you are confused/unsure ASK! CONTENTS DAY 1: Pipette Basics, Plasmid Miniprep and Restriction Digest .............................................................................2

Cell staining is a necessary and useful technique for visualizing cell morphology and structure under a microscope. This technique has been used in many areas such as cytology, hematology, oncology, histology, virology, serology, microbiology, cell biology, and immunochemistry. One of the key pieces of equipment for preparing a slide for cell staining is cytology centrifuge (cytocentrifuge) such as cytospin. However, many small labs do not have this expensive equipment and its accessory, cytoclips (also expensive relatively), which makes them difficult to study cell cytology. Here we present an alternative method for preparing a slide and cell staining in the absence of a cytocentrifuge (and cytoclips).
