ABSTRACT
The study is aimed to construct high quality Salvia miltiorrhiza cDNA library and obtain the SmJAZ8 gene of S. miltiorrhiza by yeast two-hybrid system. In this study， full-length cDNA was synthesized from roots， stems， leaves， flowers and hairy roots of S. miltiorrhiza. The full-length cDNA library was synthesized by SMART method and constructed with DSN homogenization technique. The results showed that the library capacity was 1.45×10⁶， the recombination rate was 100%， and the average size of the insert was 500-2 000 bp. The recombinant vector of pDEST-pGADT7-SmJAZ8 was constructed and transformed into Y2HGold strain. The interaction protein was screened by yeast two-hybrid system. The DnaJ protein and UBQ protein were screened by yeast two-hybrid system. This study has successfully constructed a full-length cDNA library of S. miltiorrhiza， and laid the foundation for the follow-up study on functional gene screening and gene function of S. miltiorrhiza.
