用RACE结合cDNA文库筛选的方法获取新的锌指蛋白基因

大多数有重要功能的蛋白质都含相应的由保守氨基酸顺序组成的功能结构域。本文首先根据蛋白质功能结构域保守氨基酸序列设计简并引物,用PCR方法扩增出基因EST序列,再利用改进的快速扩增cDNA末端（RACE）方法从cDNA文库中扩增出基因非同源部位,然后以非同源序列为探针,筛选cDNA文库。利用此方法成功地从人骨髓cDNA文库中克隆到几个编码锌指蛋白并代表原有EST的新的全长cDNA。这一策略也应适用于筛选编码具有其他序列保守性功能结构域蛋白的基因。 Abstract:Most of the important functionally proteins contain the corresponding function domains that consist of conserved amino acid sequences.The study provided a method to identify novel genes that encode proteins containing important functionally domains with conserved sequences.First,primers were designed according to the sequence of the cDNA library vector and the ESTs that have been obtained by reverse PCR and degenerate primers encoding Zinc finger domain.The cDNA library DNA was used as template for PCR amplification.The amplified fragment that contains nonhomologous sequences of the cDNA was inserted into pGEM-T easy vector.The fragment was recovered and used as a probe for screening the cDNA library.Several cDNAs with full length that encode proteins with Zinc finger domain and represent the original ESTs have been successfully cloned from a human bone marrow cDNA library.This strategy can also be used in screening genes that encode proteins containing differential function domains with conserved sequences.     

Investigation of diversity and isotypes of the beta-tubulin cDNA in several small strongyle (Cyathostominae) species

The diversity of the beta-tubulin cDNAs of the cyathostominae and the occurrence of further isotypes were examined in adult worms isolated from an anthelmintic-na?ve horse. cDNAs encoding beta-tubulin from Cyathostomum catinatum, Cylicocyclus nassatus, Cylicocyclus insigne, Cylicocyclus radiatus, Cylicocyclus elongatus, Cyathostomum coronatum, and Cyathostomum pateratum were characterized using specific primers developed from the cDNA sequence of Cc. nassatus. The cDNA sequences span 1,429 bp and show identities ranging from 95.6 to 100%. The deduced protein sequences span 448 amino acids and were 98-100% identical. The amino acid sequences of the 7 species varied within and between species at 10 positions. A 3' Rapid Amplification of cDNA ends using a degenerate forward primer was carried out with cDNA from Cy. pateratum, Cy. coronatum, Cy. catinatum, and Cc. nassatus to investigate the occurrence of further beta-tubulin isotypes. The expected polymerase chain reaction (PCR) product of 400 bp, including 306 bp of coding sequence, was amplified, as was an additional fragment of 600 nucleotides in the case of Cy. pateratum, Cy. coronatum, and Cy. catinatum. Sequencing of the PCR products revealed no evidence for the existence of a second beta-tubulin isotype in cyathostomes. The variation in size was caused by a length polymorphism within the 3' untranslated region, and 2 functional mRNAs seem to be transcribed from the same gene.     

Single-cell cDNA-PCR: removal of contaminating genomic DNA from total RNA using immobilized DNase I.

A procedure utilizing immobilized DNase I that allows the efficient amplification of cDNA by PCR from a single cell in the absence of contaminating genomic DNA is described. DNase I treated, total RNA derived from single cells was reverse transcribed into cDNA followed by PCR using beta-actin and c-fos specific primers that recognize different exons of the respective genes. Amplification products corresponding to cDNA, but not to genomic sequences, were detected after treatment with immobilized DNase I in samples previously shown to be contaminated with genomic DNA. This method allows the efficient removal of DNA contaminating total RNA derived from a single cell.     

Determination method of sense sequence based on RT/PCR

When novel sequences are isolated by differential display and other methods, it seems useful to determine which is a sense sequence at an early stage before further experiments. A novel sequence, named MT-001, which shows enhanced expression in the permanent ischemic rat brain, was isolated by differential display. Based on this sequence, a primer set for both direction was designed. Each primer was used to make a cDNA and PCRs performed with each cDNA and both primers. One primer used in the RT step produced a PCR product at the expected position, but another primer in the reverse direction could not. This result indicated that the primer that made the expected PCR product is antisense.
