为了鉴定家蝇Musca domestica免疫相关基因,应用抑制性消减杂交技术,构建刺激家蝇幼虫差异表达cDNA消减文库。以大肠杆菌Escherichia coli和金黄色葡萄球菌Staphylococcus aureus诱导12 h的家蝇幼虫与未诱导的家蝇幼虫为消减杂交对象,获得了差异表达基因的cDNA片段,将其与T/A载体连接并转化大肠杆菌DH5α,构建了刺激家蝇幼虫cDNA消减文库。PCR检测发现,文库的阳性克隆中插入的cDNA片段大小在200~1 000 bp之间,随机挑选了161个含大小不等差异片段的克隆进行测序和同源性分析,鉴定了36种蛋白的基因片段,包括抗菌肽、酶、核糖体蛋白、其他功能蛋白以及功能不明的蛋白。用半定量RT-PCR分析了其中6种蛋白基因的表达,结果显示：防御素和攻击素基因在细菌刺激后24 h内明显上调表达,而溶菌酶、酚氧化酶原活化因子、糜蛋白酶和蛋白质合成起始因子基因在细菌刺激后0-4 h内表达受抑制,12 h后上调表达。该研究结果为家蝇免疫相关基因的克隆和家蝇免疫防御机制的探讨奠定了良好的基础。     

Identification of differentially expressed genes in human heart with ventricular septal defect using suppression subtractive hybridization

Ventricular septal defect (VSD) accounts for the largest number of birth congenital heart defects in human, but the genetic programs that control ventricular septation are poorly understood. To identify differentially expressed genes between ventricular septal defect and normal ventricular septum myocardium, we have undertaken suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) and generated reciprocal cDNA collections of representative mRNAs specific to human heart with ventricular septal defect versus normal control. Following SSH, 1378 clones were sequenced and found to derive from 551 different genes. These predominately expressed genes included genes involved in energy metabolism, cell cycle and growth, cytoskeleton and cell adhesion, LIM protein, zinc finger protein, and development. It is anticipated that further study of genes identified will provide insights into their specific roles in the etiology of VSD, even in cardiac development, aging, and disease.

Genome comparison of Bifidobacterium longum strains NCC2705 and CRC-002 using suppression subtractive hybridization

Because probiotic effects are strain dependent, genomic explanations of these differences will contribute to understanding their mechanisms of action. The genomic sequence of the Bifidobacterium longum probiotic strain NCC2705 was determined, but little is known about the genetic diversity between strains of this species. Suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) is a powerful method for generating a set of DNA fragments differing between two closely related bacterial strains. The purpose of this study was to identify genetic differences between genomes of B. longum strains NCC2705 and CRC-002 using PCR-based SSH. Strain CRC-002 produces exopolysaccharides whereas NCC2705 is not known for reliable exopolysaccharide production. Thirty-five and 30 different sequences were obtained from the SSH libraries of strains CRC-002 and NCC2705, respectively. Specific CRC-002 genes found were predicted to be involved in the biosynthesis of exopolysaccharides and metabolism of other carbohydrates, and these genes were not present in the genome of strain NCC2705. The identification of an endo-1,4-beta-xylanase gene in the CRC-002 SSH library is an important difference because xylanase genes have previously been proposed as a defining characteristic of the NCC2705 strain. The results demonstrate that the SSH technique was useful to highlight potential genes involved in complex sugar metabolism that differ between the two probiotic strains.

利用SSH方法筛选与鉴定AC3基因缺失小鼠主要嗅觉表皮内的差异表达基因

腺苷酸环化酶3(Adenylate cyclase 3, AC3)基因在小鼠主要嗅觉表皮(Main olfactory epithelium, MOE)内的嗅觉信号传导中起着重要作用, AC3缺失是否会导致MOE内与之相关的基因发生差异表达, 尚待确定。文章利用抑制性消减杂交(Suppression subtractive hybridization, SSH)方法, 以AC3敲除(AC3^-/-)及其同窝出生的野生型(AC3^+/+)小鼠MOE为材料, 构建了正向和反向两个消减文库, 采用斑点杂交对消减文库进行初步筛选, 对筛选出的差异表达基因进行序列测定及生物信息学分析, 并利用荧光定量PCR(qRT-PCR)方法对其进行验证。斑点杂交筛选获得了386个差异表达克隆, 随机选取其中的80个进行DNA序列测定, 经序列比对后发现有62个在GenBank上获得了与之相匹配的基因信息, 其中24个上调差异表达克隆对应于kcnk3、mapk7、megf11等基因, 38个下调差异表达克隆对应于tmem88b、c-mip、skp1a、mlycd等基因。利用Gene Ontology(GO)方法对这些差异表达基因进行蛋白功能注释, 发现它们主要集中在分子结合、细胞周期、生物和细胞过程等功能方面。选取其中上调基因kcnk3和下调基因c-mip、mlycd、tmem88b及trappc5进行qRT-PCR验证。结果表明, 在AC3^-/-小鼠MOE内kcnk3的表达量显著上调, 是对照组小鼠的1.27倍, 而c-mip、mlycd、tmem88b和trappc5的表达量显著下调, 为对照组小鼠的20%、7%、32%和29%。这些基因的功能与K⁺通道、细胞发育与分化、脂肪代谢和膜蛋白转运等密切相关。推测它们可能与AC3基因共同作用, 调节小鼠MOE内的嗅觉信号传导信息。

Molecular markers for ozone stress isolated by suppression subtractive hybridization: specificity of gene expression and identification of a novel stress-regulated gene

Suppression subtractive hybridization was used to identify genes regulated by ozone (100 nmol mol ^{? 1}) in Pisum sativum. One novel gene (named PsUod1) was found. In addition, mRNA levels for four genes (encoding lipid transfer protein, pre‐hevein‐like protein, leucine‐rich repeat protein, and disease‐resistance response protein 230), which previously were shown to be regulated by biotic stress, increased. Finally, mRNA species for two genes (encoding extensin and pathogenesis‐related protein 4A), previously shown to be regulated by ozone in other species, were found to increase in abundance. The ozone‐specificity of the expression of these genes was studied by using UV‐B radiation. PsUod1 and the genes encoding extensin, leucine‐rich repeat protein, and disease‐resistance response protein 230, were differentially regulated when comparing ozone and UV‐B. Moreover, the mRNA levels for extensin, leucine‐rich repeat protein and disease‐resistance response protein 230 all increased under NaCl and aluminium stress and after wounding, whereas the message abundance for PsUod1 was unchanged under these stresses. Thus, in general, ozone caused changes similar to wounding, salt stress and aluminium stress, whereas UV‐B radiation regulated gene expression differently.

Identification of symbiosis-regulated genes in Eucalyptus globulus-Pisolithus tinctorius ectomycorrhiza by differential hybridization of arrayed cDNAs

Ectomycorrhiza development alters gene expression in the fungal and plant symbionts. The identification of a large number of genes expressed exclusively or predominantly in the symbiosis will contribute greatly to the understanding of the development of the ectomycorrhizal symbiosis. We have constructed a cDNA library of 4-day-old Eucalyptus globulus-Pisolithus tinctorius ectomycorrhiza and sequenced 850 cDNAs cloned randomly or obtained through suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH). Based on the absence of a database match, 43% of the ectomycorrhiza ESTs are coding for novel genes. At the developmental stage analysed (fungal sheath formation), the majority of the identified sequences represented 'housekeeping' proteins, i.e. proteins involved in gene/protein expression, cell-wall proteins, metabolic enzymes, and components of signalling systems. We screened arrayed cDNAs to identify symbiosis-regulated genes by using differential hybridization. Comparisons of signals from free-living partners and symbiotic tissues revealed significant differences in expression levels (differential expression ratio >2.5) for 17% of the genes analysed. No ectomycorrhiza-specific gene was detected. The results successfully demonstrate the use of the cDNA array and SSH systems as general approaches for dissecting symbiosis development, and provide the first global picture of the cellular functions operating in ectomycorrhiza.     

Identification of up-regulated genes in human uterine leiomyoma by suppression subtractive hybridization

In searching for differentially expressed genes in human uterine leiomyomas (ULs), suppression sub-tractive hybridization was used to construct an UL up-regulated library, which turned out to represent 88genes. After two rounds of screening by reverse Northern analysis, twenty genes were proved to be up-regulated, including seventeen known genes and three genes with unknown function. All these genes werefirstly associated with UL. Three genes with notable difference were selected for Northern confirmationOur results proved the authenticity of the twenty genes. One gene named Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) showedup-regulation in 4/6 of the patients and investigation of tissue distribution indicated that it had obviousexpression in prostate, testis, liver, heart and skeletal muscle.
