Molecular cloning of genomic DNA segments partially coding for human thymidylate synthase from the mouse cell transformant.

Mouse cells deficient in the enzyme thymidylate synthase [TS; EC 2.1.1.45] were serially transformed with human DNA to yield primary and secondary transformants which produced human TS [Ayusawa, D., Shimizu, K., Koyama, H., Takeishi, K., & Seno, T. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 48-53]. Southern blot hybridization of their genomic DNA showed that six secondary transformants examined contained in common a 5.5 kb EcoRI fragment hybridized with a human Alu sequence. From the secondary transformant genomic library constructed with phage lambda Charon 4A, two recombinant phage clones carrying Alu sequences were isolated. Restriction endonuclease mapping revealed that the insert DNAs of the two phage clones overlapped and covered a region of 19 kb in total. Within this region at least six Alu sequences were located. A 2.0 kb DNA fragment, prepared from an EcoRI fragment subcloned in plasmid pBR322 and free of Alu sequences, hybridized to a single band on RNA blots of primary and secondary transformant poly(A)+ RNA, but not to RNA of mouse wild-type and recipient cell lines. The relative amount of the presumed human TS mRNA was linearly correlated with the relative activity of human TS in various types of mouse transformant cells. These results indicate that these two phage clones contain genomic DNA sequences encoding human TS.
