Benefits of technology

The patent describes a method for increasing the production of a specific type of nucleic acid molecule that contains an unnatural nucleotide. This is achieved by either using an engineered cell or by incubating a cell with a purified plasmid. This method can help to create new and useful molecules that can be used in various applications.

Problems solved by technology

However, the oligonucleotides including both DNA and RNA each includes only the four natural nucleotides of adenosine (A), guanosine (G), cytosine (C), thymine (T) for DNA, and the four natural nucleotides of adenosine (A), guanosine (G), cytosine (C), and uridine (U) for RNA, and which significantly restricts the potential functions and applications of the oligonucleotides.

example 1

[0162]All natural organisms store genetic information in a four letter, and two base pair genetic alphabet. In some instances, a mutant form of Escherichia coli was generated, grown in the presence of the unnatural nucleoside triphosphates dNaMTP and d5SICSTP, and provided with the means to import them via expression of a plasmid-borne nucleoside triphosphate transporter, replicates DNA containing a single dNaM-d5SICS UBP. In some cases, the organism grew poorly, and was unable to indefinitely store the unnatural information, which is a prerequisite for true semi-synthetic life. Described below comprise an engineered transporter, coupled with a chemically optimized UBP, to generate a semi-synthetic organism (SSO).

Methods

[0163]Unless otherwise stated, liquid bacterial cultures were grown in 2×YT (casein peptone 16 g / L, yeast extract 10 g / L, NaCl 5 g / L) supplemented with potassium phosphate (50 mM, pH 7), referred to hereafter as “media”, and incubated at 37° C. in a 48-well flat bott...
