Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of production and screening of gene libraries, and more particularly to the generation and screening of normalized genomic DNA libraries from mixed populations of microbes and/or other organisms.
- the present invention addresses this need by providing methods to isolate the
- DNA from a variety of sources including isolated organisms, consortias of microorganisms, primary enrichments, and environmental samples, to make libraries which have been "normalized” in their representation of the genome populations in the original samples, and to screen these libraries for enzyme and other bioactivities.
- the present invention represents a novel, recombinant approach to generate and screen DNA libraries constructed from mixed microbial populations of cultivated or, preferably, uncultivated (or "environmental") samples.
- libraries with equivalent representation of genomes from microbes that can differ vastly in abundance in natural populations are generated and screened.
- This "normalization" approach reduces the redundancy of clones from abundant species and increases the representation of clones from rare species.
- These normalized libraries allow for greater screening efficiency resulting in the isolation of genes encoding novel biological catalysts. .- 4 - Screening of mixed populations of organisms has been made a rational approach because of the availability of techniques described herein, whereas previously attempts at screening of mixed population were not feasible and were avoided because of the cumbersome procedures required.
- the invention provides a process for forming a normalized genomic DNA library from an environmental sample by (a) isolating a genomic DNA population from the environmental sample; (b) at least one of (i) amplifying the copy number of the DNA population so isolated and (ii) recovering a fraction of the isolated genomic DNA having a desired characteristic; and (c) normalizing the representation of various DNAs within the genomic DNA population so as to form a normalized library of genomic DNA from the environmental sample.
- the process comprises the step of recovering a fraction of the isolated genomic DNA having a desired characteristic.
- the process comprises the step of amplifying the copy number of the DNA population so isolated.
- the step of amplifying the genomic DNA precedes the normalizing step.
- the step of normalizing the genomic DNA precedes the amplifying step.
- the process comprises both the steps of (i) amplifying the copy number of the DNA population so isolated and (ii) recovering a fraction of the isolated genomic DNA having a desired characteristic.
- Another aspect of the invention provides a normalized genomic DNA library formed from an environmental sample by a process comprising the steps of (a) isolating a genomic DNA population from the environmental sample; (b) at least one - 5 - of (i) amplifying the copy number of the DNA population so isolated and (ii) recovering a fraction of the isolated genomic DNA having a desired characteristic; and (c) normalizing the representation of various DNAs within the genomic DNA population so as to form a normalized library of genomic DNA from the environmental sample.
- the various preferred embodiments described with respect to the above method aspect of the invention are likewise applicable with regard to this aspect of the invention.
- the invention also provides a process for forming a normalized genomic DNA library from an environmental sample by (a) isolating a genomic DNA population from the environmental sample; (b) at least one of (i) amplifying the copy number of the DNA population so isolated and (ii) recovering a fraction of the isolated genomic DNA having a desired characteristic; and (c) normalizing the representation of various DNAs within the genomic DNA population so as to form a normalized library of genomic DNA from the environmental sample.

- the various preferred embodiments described with respect to the above method aspect of the invention are likewise applicable with regard to this aspect of the invention.
- Figure 1 is a graph showing the percent of total DNA content represented by G + C in the various genomic DNA isolates tested as described in Example 2. r 6 -
- DNA can be isolated from samples using various techniques well known in the art (Nucleic Acids in the Environment Methods & Applications, J.T. Trevors, D.D. van Elsas, Springer Laboratory, 1995). Preferably, DNA obtained will be of large size and free of enzyme inhibitors and other contaminants. DNA can be isolated directly from the environmental sample (direct lysis) or cells may be harvested from the sample prior to DNA recovery (cell separation). Direct lysis procedures have several advantages over protocols based on cell separation.
- the direct lysis technique provides more DNA with a generally higher representation of the microbial community, however, it is sometimes smaller in size and more likely to contain enzyme inhibitors than DNA recovered using the cell separation technique.
- Very useful direct lysis techniques have recently been described which provide DNA of high molecular weight and high purity (Barns, 1994; Holben, 1994). If inhibitors are present, there are several protocols which utilize cell isolation which can be employed (Holben, 1994). Additionally, a fractionation technique, such as the bis-benzimide separation (cesium chloride isolation) described below, can be used to enhance the purity of the DNA.
- DNA is preferably fractionated using a density centrifugation technique.
- a density centrifugation technique is a cesium-chloride gradient.
- the technique is performed in the presence of a nucleic acid intercalating agent which will bind regions of the DNA and cause a change in the buoyant density of the nucleic acid.
- the nucleic acid intercalating agent is a dye, such as bis-benzimide which will preferentially bind regions of DNA (AT in the case .- 7 - of bis-benzimide) (Muller, 1975; Manuelidis, 1977).
- nucleic acid complexed with an intercalating agent such as bis-benzimide
- an intercalating agent such as bis-benzimide
- the nucleic acid is fractionated. If the intercalating agent preferentially binds regions of the DNA, such as GC or AT regions, the nucleic acid is separated based on relative base content in the DNA. Nucleic acid from multiple organisms can be separated in this manner.
- Density gradients are currently employed to fractionate nucleic acids. For example, the use of bis-benzimide density gradients for the separation of microbial nucleic acids for use in soil typing and bioremediation has been described. In these experiments, one evaluates the relative abundance of A 260 peaks within fixed benzimide gradients before and after remediation treatment to see how the bacterial populations have been affected. The technique relies on the premise that on the average, the GC content of a species is relatively consistent. This technique is applied in the present invention to fractionate complex mixtures of genomes. The nucleic acids derived from a sample are subjected to ultracentrifugation and fractionated while measuring the A 260 as in the published procedures.
- equal A 260 units are removed from each peak, the nucleic acid is amplified using a variety of amplification protocols known in the art, including those described hereafter, and gene libraries are prepared.
- equal A 260 units are removed from each peak, and gene libraries are prepared directly from this nucleic acid.
- gene libraries are prepared from a combination of equal amounts of DNA from each peak. This strategy enables access to genes from minority organisms within environmental samples and enrichments, whose genomes may not be represented or may even be lost, due to the fact that the organisms are present in such minor quantity, if a library was construed from the total unfractionated DNA sample.
- DNA can be normalized subsequent to fractionation, using techniques described hereafter. DNA libraries can then be generated from this fractionated/normalized DNA. .- 8 -
- composition of multiple fractions of the fractionated nucleic acid can be determined using PCR related amplification methods of classification well known in the art.
- NORMALIZATION Previous normalization protocols have been designed for constructing normalized cDNA libraries (WO 95/08647, WO 95/1 1986). These protocols were originally developed for the cloning and isolation of rare cDNA's derived from mRNA. The present invention relates to the generation of normalized genomic DNA gene libraries from uncultured or environmental samples.
- Nucleic acid samples isolated directly from environmental samples or from primary enrichment cultures will typically contain genomes from a large number of microorganisms. These complex communities of organisms can be described by the absolute number of species present within a population and by the relative abundance of each organisms within the sample. Total normalization of each organisms within a sample is very difficult to achieve. Separation techniques such as optical tweezers can be used to pick morphologically distinct members with a sample. Cells from each member can then be combined in equal numbers or pure cultures of each member within a sample can be prepared and equal numbers of cells from each pure culture combined to achieve normalization. In practice, this is very difficult to perform, especially in a high thru-put manner.
- the present invention involves the use of techniques to approach normalization of the genomes present within an environmental sample, generating a DNA library from the normalized nucleic acid, and screening the library for an activity of interest.
- DNA is isolated from the sample and fractionated.
- the strands of nucleic acid are then melted and allowed to selectively reanneal under fixed conditions (C 0 t driven hybridization).
- DNA is not - 9 - fractionated prior to this melting process.
- the common sequences find their complementary strands faster than the rare sequences.
- single-stranded nucleic acid representing an enrichment of rare sequences, is amplified and used to generate gene libraries. This procedure leads to the amplification of rare or low abundance nucleic acid molecules. These molecules are then used to generate a library. While all DNA will be recovered, the identification of the organism originally containing the DNA may be lost. This method offers the ability to recover DNA from "unclonable sources.”
- Nucleic acid samples derived using the previously described technique are amplified to complete the normalization process.
- samples can be amplified using PCR amplification protocols such as those described by Kx> et al. (Ko, 1990b; Ko, 1990a, Takahashi, 1994), or more preferably, long PCR protocols such as those described by Barnes (1994) or Cheng (1994).
- Normalization can be performed directly, or steps can also be taken to reduce the complexity of the nucleic acid pools prior to the normalization process. Such reduction in complexity can be beneficial in recovering nucleic acid from the poorly represented organisms.
- the microorganisms from which the libraries may be prepared include prokaryotic microorganisms, such as Eubacteria and Archaebacteria, and lower eukaryotic microorganisms such as fungi, some algae and protozoa.
- the microorganisms may be cultured microorganisms or uncultured microorganisms obtained from environmental samples and such microorganisms may be extremophiles, such as thermophiles, hyperthermophiles, psychrophiles, psychrotrophs, etc. -. 10 -
- the library may be produced from environmental samples in which case DNA may be recovered without culturing of an organism or the DNA may be recovered from a cultured organism.
- Sources of microorganism DNA as a starting material library from which target DNA is obtained are particularly contemplated to include environmental samples, such as microbial samples obtained from Arctic and Antarctic ice, water or permafrost sources, materials of volcanic origin, materials from soil or plant sources in tropical areas, etc.
- environmental samples such as microbial samples obtained from Arctic and Antarctic ice, water or permafrost sources, materials of volcanic origin, materials from soil or plant sources in tropical areas, etc.
- genomic DNA may be recovered from either a culturable or non-culturable organism and employed to produce an appropriate recombinant expression library for subsequent determination of enzyme activity.
- genes Bacteria and many eukaryotes have a coordinated mechanism for regulating genes whose products are involved in related processes.
- the genes are clustered, in structures referred to as "gene clusters," on a single chromosome and are transcribed together under the control of a single regulatory sequence, including a single promoter which initiates transcription of the entire cluster.
- the gene cluster, the promoter, and additional sequences that function in regulation altogether are referred to as an "operon" and can include up to 20 or more genes, usually from 2 to 6 genes.
- a gene cluster is a group of adjacent genes that are either identical or related, usually as to their function.
- Some gene families consist of identical members. Clustering is a prerequisite for maintaining identity between genes, although clustered genes are not necessarily identical. Gene clusters range from extremes where a duplication is generated to adjacent related genes to cases where hundreds of identical genes lie in a tandem array. Sometimes no significance is discernable in a repetition of a particular gene. A principal example of this is the expressed duplicate insulin genes in some species, whereas a single insulin gene is adequate in other mammalian species.
- gene clusters undergo continual reorganization and, thus, the ability to create heterogeneous libraries of gene clusters from, for example, bacterial or other prokaryote sources is valuable in determining sources of novel proteins, particularly including enzymes such as, for example, the polyketide synthases that are responsible for the synthesis of polyketides having a vast array of useful activities.
- enzymes such as, for example, the polyketide synthases that are responsible for the synthesis of polyketides having a vast array of useful activities.
- Other types of proteins that are the product(s) of gene clusters are also contemplated, including, for example, antibiotics, antivirals, antitumor agents and regulatory proteins, such as insulin.
- Polyketides are molecules which are an extremely rich source of bioactivities, including antibiotics (such as tetracyclines and erythromycin), anti- cancer agents (daunomycin), immunosuppressants (FK506 and rapamycin), and veterinary products (monensin). Many polyketides (produced by polyketide synthases) are valuable as therapeutic agents. Polyketide synthases are multifunctional enzymes that catalyze the biosynthesis of a huge variety of carbon chains differing in length and patterns of functionality and cyclization. Polyketide synthase genes fall into gene clusters and at least one type (designated type I) of polyketide synthases have large size genes and enzymes, complicating genetic manipulation and in vitro studies of these genes/proteins. - 12 -
- the ability to select and combine desired components from a library of polyketides and post-polyketide biosynthesis genes for generation of novel polyketides for study is appealing.
- the method(s) of the present invention make it possible to and facilitate the cloning of novel polyketide synthases, since one can generate gene banks with clones containing large inserts (especially when using the f-factor based vectors), which facilitates cloning of gene clusters.
- the gene cluster DNA is ligated into a vector, particularly wherein a vector further comprises expression regulatory sequences which can control and regulate the production of a detectable protein or protein-related array activity from the ligated gene clusters.
- a vector further comprises expression regulatory sequences which can control and regulate the production of a detectable protein or protein-related array activity from the ligated gene clusters.
- Use of vectors which have an exceptionally large capacity for exogenous DNA introduction are particularly appropriate for use with such gene clusters and are described by way of example herein to include the f-factor (or fertility factor) of E. coli.
- This f-factor of E. coli is a plasmid which affect high-frequency transfer of itself during conjugation and is ideal to achieve and stably propagate large DNA fragments, such as gene clusters from mixed microbial samples.

- the tube was then filled with the filtered cesium chloride solution and spun in a VTi50 rotor in a Beckman L8-70 Ultracentrifuge at 33,000 rpm for 72 hours. Following centrifugation, a syringe pump and fractionator (Brandel Model 186) were used to drive the gradient through an ISCO UA-5 UV absorbance detector set to 280 nm. Three peaks representing the DNA from the three organisms were obtained. PCR amplification of DNA encoding rRNA from a 10-fold dilution of the E. coli peak was performed with the following primers to amplify eubacterial sequences:
- 16S rRNA analysis is used to analyze the complexity of the DNA recovered from environmental samples (Reysenbach, 1992; DeLong, 1992; Barns,

- the single-stranded DNA fraction is desalted and amplified by PCR. 6. The process is repeated for several more rounds (up to 5 or more).
- Genomic DNA dissolved in TE buffer is vigorously passed through a 25 gauge double-hubbed needle until the sheared fragments are in the desired size range.
- DNA ends are "polished” or blunted with Mung Bean nuclease. - 17 -
