[Dependence of the efficacy of transfecting muscle fibers in vivo on electroporation conditions].

This study is a survey of in vivo experiments on transfection of laboratory mouse muscle fibers by electroporation using an original device generating electric impulses. Transfection efficiency proved to depend on DNA dose and the number of electric impulses. It can be increased significantly by electroporation at varying pulse burst polarity. At both direct electrode application to muscles and electroporation through the skin, the muscle fiber transfection was more efficient under electroporation conditions much milder than those usually reported. The use of electroporation method for gene therapy of Duchenne muscular dystrophy is discussed.

[Restrictase BamHI, HindII, EcoRI and SmaI mapping of hybrid lambda-phi 80 phages with recombination in the structural gene region].

Hybrids lambda H lambda T80 with recombination in the region of structural genes have lambda head and phi 80 tail genes. In this paper the molecular structure of 5 independently isolated hybrids was established using restriction endonucleases. It has been shown that all of them have a recombinant head or tail. A deletion of 4,8% lambda was demonstrated in the immunity region of phi 80vir phage. Co-ordinates of restriction sites for BamHI, HindIII, EcoRI and SmaI restriction endonucleases on phi 80 DNA were calculated.

[Lambda H-lambda T 80 hybrid study of the DNA structural gene region in lambda and phi 80 phages].

Hybrids lambda H lambda T80 are formed due to recombination of the phage lambda att80 and phi 80 prophage partially deleted in the region of structural genes. Genetic structure of 22 independently isolated lambda H lambda T80 hybrids was determined by the restriction method and it was shown that recombination took place in the genes A, C, D and H. The frequencies of hybrid formation diminish from 1.10(-3) to 4.10(-5) for this gene order, which suggests that the polar divergence of nucleotide sequencies in the region of structural genes exists. It was found that formation of hybrids with recombination in the region of "weak" homology (gene H) was possible only when the region of "strong" homology was present in the deleted phi 80 prophage to initiate recombination.

[Molecular structure of hybrid phage phi80hy43].

The phage hybrid phi80hy43 derived from a vegetative cross phi80cIhlambda x lambdacIc17 was constructed for discrimination phi80mono- and polylysogens. Molecular structure of this hybrid was established using heteroduplex analysis and restriction endonuclease EcoRI. It is found that the hybrid phi80hy43 represents a phage phi80 containing a foreign piece of DNA between genes cI and 0. The length of this piece of DNA comprises 0.7%, corresponding to the length of cy-cII region of th phage lambda. So it is believed that the hybrid phi80hy43 was formed due to insertion of the lambdacy region with the mutation c17 into phi80hlambda phage genome.
