Govorun1 Cloning of Mycoplasma gallisepticum Genome in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cells 1Institute of Systems Biology and Medicine, Moscow, 117246 Russia*g.fisunov@sysbiomed.ru Received - 2025-10-28; Revised - 2025-12-10; Accepted - 2025-12-18 To date, the genomes of several mycoplasmas have been cloned in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells, including Mycoplasma genitalium, M. pneumoniae, and M. mycoides. In this work, the 1-Mb genome of Mycoplasma gallisepticum S6 was cloned in S. cerevisiae. A transposon vector was constructed to deliver a synthetic S. cerevisiae replicon and a selective marker into M. gallisepticum genome. Transplantation of the M. gallisepticum genome with the integrated yeast replicon to yeast cells was performed using two approaches, polyethylene glycol (PEG)-induced transformation of yeast spheroplasts with intact genomic DNA isolated from M. gallisepticum cells and prepared in aragose plugs and PEG-induced fusion of M. gallisepticum cells with yeast spheroplasts. Both of the approaches yielded S. cerevisiae strains with the cloned M. gallisepticum genome, as was verified by nanopore sequencing. genome cloning, spheroplast, centromeric plasmid, Mycoplasma gallisepticum, Saccharomyces cerevisiae |
