Yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) are engineered DNA molecules that can clone and replicate large DNA sequences in yeast cells. YACs contain essential yeast elements like a centromere and telomeres that allow them to behave like natural yeast chromosomes. YACs can clone very large inserts of up to 10 megabases of foreign DNA, making them useful for generating whole genome libraries.

The Art Pastor's Guide to Sabbath | Steve ThomasonSteve Thomason
What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

Yeast Artificial Chromosomes (YACs)
1.
2. YACs are plasmid shuttle vectors capable of
replicating and being selected in common
bacterial hosts such as Escherichia coli, as
well as in the budding yeast
Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) is
a human-engineered DNA molecule
used to clone DNA sequences in
yeast cells
3. YEAST ARTIFICIAL CHROMOSOMES
YAC is an artificially constructed chromosome that
contains a
Centromere
Telomeres
Autonomous replicating sequence (ARS) element
required for replication and preservation of YAC
in yeast cells
ARS elements are thought to act as replication origins
First described in 1983 by Murray and Szostak
4. YACs behave like naturally
existing chromosomes, provided
that they are of the proper size,
showing comparable stability.
5. Purpose:
Cloning vehicles that propogate in eukaryotic cell
hosts as eukaryotic Chromosomes
Clone very large inserts of DNA: 100 kb - 10 Mb
Features:
YAC cloning vehicles are plasmids
Final chimeric DNA is a linear DNA molecule with
telomeric ends: Artificial Chromosome
7. Yeast Artificial Chromosomes
(pYACs) Plasmids
Many different yeast artificial chromosomes
plasmids exist, such as pYAC3 and pYAC4
plasmids.
The basic structural features of YACs were
developed from the yeast centromere shuttle-
plasmids YCp series.
These are composed of:
double-stranded circular DNA sequences carrying
the b-lactamase gene bla and the bacterial pMB1
origin of replication
Include yeast ARS1 with its associated CEN4
DNA sequence, as well as the URA3 selectable
8. Yeast HIS3 is flanked by a telomere-like DNA
sequence that are adjacent to two recognition
sites for the BamHI restriction enzyme.
Most of these YACs also contain the cloning site
in the middle of the SUP4 suppressor of an ochre
allele of a tyrosine transfer RNA (tRNA) gene.
10. Construction of Yeast Artificial
Chromosomes
Plasmid DNA purification
Treatment with restriction
enzymes
Ligation and yeast
transformation
11. CONSTRUCTION OF YAC
A YAC is built using an initial circular plasmid
typically broken into two linear molecules
using restriction enzymes
DNA ligase is then used to ligate a sequence or
gene of interest between the two linear molecules
forming a single large linear piece of DNA
12.
13.
14. This inserted gene compensates for a mutation in the yeast
host cell that causes the accumulation of red pigment
The host cells are normally red, and those transformed with
YAC only, will form colourless colonies
Cloning of a foreign DNA fragment into the YAC causes
insertional inactivation, restoring the red colour
Therefore the colonies that contain the foreign DNA fragment
are red. The yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) vector is
capable of carrying a large DNA fragment (up to 2 Mb)
Transformation efficiency is very low.
15. Homologous Recombination
In recombinationally-targeted YAC
cloning, YACs are assembled in vivo, by
recombination, and not by ligation in
vitro
Recombination takes place between a
target segment of the exogenous DNA,
and the YAC vector that contains
sequences homologous to these targets
16. Firstly two YAC vectors arms and the
exogenous segment(flanked by desired
sequences) are transformed into the
yeast cell
Then followed by recombination
Results in formation of desired stable
YACs.
17. Figure.Recombinati
onal targeted
cloning with YAC
vectors. A yeast
strain is transformed
with a mixture of the
two YAC vector
arms and large
fragments of DNA.
Recombination in
vivo results in the
formation of a
specific YAC clone.
The two YAC vector
arms are derived
from linearized
plasmids that
contain targeting
segments that are
homologous to the
termini of the DNA
segment that is to
be cloned.
18. Existing YAC clones can be
modified by homologous
recombination in yeast
•‘Retrofitting’
Modifying YACs by Homologous
Recombination
19. Applications of YACs include generating whole DNA
libraries of the genomes of higher organisms
to identifying essential mammalian chromosomal
sequences necessary for the future construction of
specialized mammalian artificial chromosomes
(MACs)
Use of Yeast Artificial
Chromosomes
20. Another major application of YACs is in the study of
regulation of gene expression by cis-acting,
controlling DNA elements
That are present either upstream or downstream of
large eukaryotic genes, after the transfer of these
YACs from yeast to mammalian cells
21. It is possible to construct YACs with
megabase-long inserts using the precise
homologous recombination
original DNA sequence of a eukaryotic
genome fragment more than 2Mb in size
can be maintained in a single YAC
vector
