The transformation-associated recombination (TAR) cloning technique allows selective and accurate isolation of chromosomal regions and genes from complex genomes. The technique is based on in vivo recombination between genomic DNA and a linearized vector containing homologous sequences, or hooks, to the gene of interest. The recombination occurs during transformation of yeast spheroplasts that results in the generation of a yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) containing the gene of interest. To further enhance and refine the TAR cloning technology, we determined the minimal size of a specific hook required for gene isolation utilizing the Tg.AC mouse transgene as a targeted region. For this purpose a set of vectors containing a B1 repeat hook and a Tg.AC-specific hook of variable sizes (from 20 to 800 bp) was constructed and checked for efficiency of transgene isolation by a radial TAR cloning. When vectors with a specific hook that was ≥60 bp were utilized, ∼2% of transformants contained circular YACs with the Tg.AC transgene sequences. Efficiency of cloning dramatically decreased when the TAR vector contained a hook of 40 bp or less. Thus, the minimal length of a unique sequence required for gene isolation by TAR is ∼60 bp. No transgene-positive YAC clones were detected when an ARS element was incorporated into a vector, demonstrating that the absence of a yeast origin of replication in a vector is a prerequisite for efficient gene isolation by TAR cloning.

The yeast two-hybrid system and far-Western protein blot analysis were used to demonstrate dimerization of human double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-dependent protein kinase (PKR) in vivo and in vitro. A catalytically inactive mutant of PKR with a single amino acid substitution (K296R) was found to dimerize in vivo, and a mutant with a deletion of the catalytic domain of PKR retained the ability to dimerize. In contrast, deletion of the two dsRNA-binding motifs in the N-terminal regulatory domain of PKR abolished dimerization. In vitro dimerization of the dsRNA-binding domain required the presence of dsRNA. These results suggest that the binding of dsRNA by PKR is necessary for dimerization. The mammalian dsRNA-binding protein TRBP, originally identified on the basis of its ability to bind the transactivation region (TAR) of human immunodeficiency virus RNA, also dimerized with itself and with PKR in the yeast assay. Taken together, these results suggest that complexes consisting of different combinations of dsRNA-binding proteins may exist in vivo. Such complexes could mediate differential effects on gene expression and control of cell growth.

A complete study of the importance of the pyrolysis temperature (up to 1500 °C) of a petroleum residue (ethylene tar) in the activation with KOH of the resultant pyrolysis products (covering from the own ethylene tar to pitches and well developed cokes) has been carried out. The trend in the porosity found for activated carbons is as follows: the pore volume increases with the pyrolysis temperature reaching a maximum value (1.39 cm3/g) at about 460 °C, just at the transition temperature between a fluid pitch and a solid coke. It is the pitch with highest mesophase content that develops the maximum porosity when activated with KOH. The amount of H2, CO and CO2 produced during the reaction of the mesophase pitch and coke with KOH has been quantified, and a trend as described for the pore volume was found with the pyrolysis temperature. Therefore, there is a relationship between the reactivity of the precursor with KOH and the porosity developed by the activated carbon. Since the reactions that produce H2 initiate at temperatures as low as 300 °C, it seems that KOH is modifying the conditions under which the pyrolysis occurs, and this fact is critical in the development of porosity.
