Abstract

The invention provides a new method for conducting site-specific mutation in methylated circular stranded DNA molecules conferred by means of mutagenic primer pairs and methylase deficient Escherichia coli. The mutagenic primer pairs are complementary at 5' end or 3' end, or completely complementary to each other. Firstly, mutagenic primer pair is annealed to opposite strands of the methylated circular double-stranded parent DNA molecules. Then, polymerase chain reaction with DNA polymerase is performed by using unmethylated dNTPs to create unmethylated mutagenized double-stranded daughter DNA molecules. Finally, the reaction mixture of the methylated parent DNA molecules and unmethylated mutagenized daughter DNA molecules is transformed into a methylase deficient competent E.coli. The replication of methylated parent DNA is inhibited in methylase deficient host cell. In contrast, the unmethylated daughter DNA, which contains the desired mutation, are efficiently replicated in methylase deficient host cell and recovered thereafter. The invention also provides a kit for introducing site-specific mutagenesis in accordance with the method of the present invention.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of molecular biology, and specifically relates to a new method for site-directed mutagenesis. Background technique [0002] Site-directed mutagenesis is a powerful tool in the field of studying the effects of DNA sequence changes on protein function. Site-directed mutagenesis can be performed in a variety of ways (see, eg, US Patent Nos. 6,391,548, 7,132,265 and 6,713,285, incorporated herein by reference). Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has been widely used in this field as a cyclic amplification technique in which mutagenic primers are used to introduce desired mutations (see Allemandou et al., J Biomed Biotechnol S, 202-207, (2003); An et al., Appl Microbiol Biotechnol S 68, 774-778, (2005); Jeltsch et al., Methods Mol Biol S 182, 85-94 (2002); Hall, et al. Protein Eng. 4:601 (1991) ; Hemsley, et al. Nucleic Acids Research 17: 6545-6551 (1989); Ho, et al. Gene 77: 51-59 (1989); Hultman, et al. Nucleic Acids Rese...
