SuperCos1 - a „common“cosmid for cloning, Fragments to clone 40-50 kbp

“Archives”

based systems, e.g. LambdaZap

Expression libraries

pLAFR3 - a replicon in a variety of Gram-negatives(e.g. P. putida)fragments to clone - 20-30 kbp

Metagenomic expression library in lambda phage

Cosmid arms treated with phosphatese

Transduce, select for antibiotics resistans and score for white phages n X-Gal

DNA size-fractionated,partially digested with Sau3A

Ligation

Package in vitro

Library of dozens of thousands phage particles with 0-12 kbp inserts

Page 6: Technical University  Braunschweig

The ZAP Express vector allows bouth eukaryoticand prokaryotic expression and accomodates DNA insert from 0 to 12 kb in length.

„Oil“ library = 1,8 x 106 phage particles. Average insert size - 7.5 kbp

Clones in the ZAP Express vector can be screend with either DNAprobes or antibody probes

Few hydrolytic enzymes from expression libraries obtained after oil enrichment, have been characterised

Isolation will be continued with other samples(e.g. Bannock interface has a number of positives, characterization in progress)

Conclusions and outlook

The natural microbial communities from interface capable of petroleum oil degradation

Isolation of a variety of enzymes will be continued

Screening/characterisation of enzymatic and antimicrobial activities from the isolates

Interface libraries from the last RV”Urania” sampling cruise to be analysed(e.g. Bannock interface has a number of positives, characterization in progress)
