cDNA微阵列制作的优化

为了优化筛检cDNA微阵列中靶基因的最适长度、浓度及点样溶液的种类,设计持家基因betaactin和GAPDHRT PCR3对引物,产物长度在189～1078bp之间,以乙肝病毒DNA片段为阴性对照,扩增纯化后分别溶于3×SSC、50%DMSO及0.5mol/L碳酸盐缓冲液(pH=9.0)中,调整浓度分别为0.5μg/μL、1.0μg/μL和1.5μg/μL,比较上述不同条件的杂交结果。结果表明,杂交具有较好的特异性,阴性对照(乙肝病毒)和空白对照(点样溶液)均未见杂交信号;3种长度的同一靶基因杂交信号强度无明显差别(betaactinP=0.378;GAPDHP=0.866);3种点样溶液中以50%DMSO杂交信号最好,较强且均匀一致(P=0.0001),其余2种差异不显著(P=0.142);3种浓度靶基因杂交信号差异不显著(P=0.648),浓度高者信号略强。短片段靶基因(200bp左右)可获得与长片段靶基因(1000bp以上)一样较好的杂交信号,点样溶液以50%DMSO效果最好,靶基因浓度为0.5μg/μL时即可得到较好的杂交结果。
