大鼠谷氨酰胺合成酶基因的克隆及其在Hela-G细胞中的表达

摘要

Objective To clone rat glutamine synthetase(GS) gene and to express it in mammalian cells. Methods Rat GS cD NA was amplified by RT-PCR from RNA of rat cerebral cortex tissue. GS cDNA was inserted into eukaryotic expression vector pEGFP-N3. The recombinant expression vector was transiently transfected into Hela-G cells by LipofectamineTM 2000 reagent. The expression of GS in Hela-G cells was detected by immunocytochemistry. Results The sequence of the cloncd GS was confirmed by DNA sequencing. The Hela-G cells transfected with pEGFP-N3-GS could efficicntly express GS protein. Conclusion The cloning of rat GS gene and the construction of its eukaryotic expression vector are successful,which lavs the foundation for further investiga ting the role of GS in astrocytes.%目的 克隆大鼠谷氨酰胺合成酶(GS)基因,构建其真核表达载体,并观察其在Hela-G细胞中的表达. 方法 采用RT-PCR方法,以大鼠大脑皮层总RNA为模板,扩增GS基因,定向克隆到pEGFP-N3载体中.以LipofectamineTM2000试剂转染pEGFP-N3-GS表达载体至Hela-G细胞中进行瞬时真核表达.以免疫细胞化学方法鉴定GS的表达.结果 从大鼠大脑皮层组织中克隆到序列正确的GS全长编码序列.所构建的pEGFP-N3-GS质粒在Hela-G细胞中获得高效表达.结论 大鼠GS基因的克隆、真核表达载体的构建及在Hela-G中的表达获得成功.
