Background

Intracellular localization is an important part of the characterization of a gene product. In an attempt to search for genes based on the intracellular localization of their products, we constructed a green fluorescent protein (GFP)-fusion genomic DNA library of S. pombe.

Results

We constructed the S. pombe GFP-fusion genomic DNA library by fusing, in all three reading frames, random fragments of genomic DNA to the 5' end of the GFP gene in such a way that expression of potential GFP-fusion proteins would be under the control of the own promoters contained in the genomic DNA fragments. Fission yeast cells were transformed with this plasmid library, and microscopic screening of 49 845 transformants yielded 6954 transformants which exhibited GFP fluorescence, of which 728 transformants showed fluorescence localized to distinct intracellular structures such as the nucleus, the nuclear membrane, and cytoskeletal structures. Plasmids were isolated from 516 of these transformants, and a determination of their DNA sequences identified 250 independent genes. The intracellular localizations of the 250 GFP-fusion constructs was categorized as an image database; using this database, DNA sequences can be searched for based on the localizations of their products.

Conclusions

A number of new intracellular structural components were found in this library. The library of GFP-fusion constructs also provides useful fluorescent markers for various intracellular structures and cellular activities, which can be readily used for microscopic observation in living cells."xsd:string
