麂亚科动物钾离子通道基因片段及其内含子 序列的克隆与进化分析

运用PCR扩增、T-A克隆、测序等技术,获得黑麂,小麂,赤麂和毛冠鹿4种麂亚科动物基因组DNA的钾离子通道部分序列。序列分析表明:麂属动物之间的外显子区域序列差异为0.90%～1.44%,毛冠鹿与麂属动物之间的差异为0.90%～1.26%,可见这一段序列的同源性较高。而内含子部分序列差异在麂属动物之间的差异为0～1.22%,毛冠鹿与麂属动物的差异为1.83%左右。由NJ法和最大简约法（Mp法）构建的进化树表明黑麂与赤麂亲缘关系较近,小麂与他们同为一属但关系较远,而毛冠鹿与它们之间的分化程度已达到属间水平。研究表明基因组的内含子序列能够较真实反映近缘动物之间的关系,是进行分子进化比较分析的较理想标记。 Abstract: In this study, partial fragments of potassium ion channel gene were amplified using the genomic DNA of muntjak, reevesi, crinifrons, and Elaphodus cephalophus. The PCR products were ligated to the plasmid of pMD18-T Vector by the method of direct T-A cloning. The positive clones were identified by colony PCR. The sequences of the recombinant clones were determined using M13-47/RV-M universal primers and aligned by the software CLUSTALW. The nucleotide divergences of exon were 0.90%-1.44% among three species of Muntiacus, 0.90%-1.26% between E. cephalophus and each of Muntiacus deer. In the nucleotide of intron there is 0%-1.22% difference among these muntjac deers, and the divergene reached about 1.83% between E. cephalophus and the three species of Muntiacus. Using the software of MEGA to analyse molecular phylogeny, Phylogenetic trees were constructed with neighbor-joining method and maximum parsimony method. The result showed Muntiacus, crinifrons is most closely related to muntjak, with reevesi as their sister species. E. cephalophus is in the other genus.
