RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To establish a novel approach for quick and high throughput verification of human gene imprinting.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>By use of a pair of dye-labeled probes, 5' nuclease assay was combined with reverse transcriptase-PCR(RT-PCR) to genotype a coding single nucleotide polymorphism (cSNP), rs705(C/T) of a known imprinted gene, small nuclear ribonucleotide protein N (SNRPN), on both genomic DNA and cDNA of human lymphoblast cell lines.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Allele discrimination showed a clear monoallelic expression pattern of SNRPN, which was confirmed by RT-PCR based restriction fragment length polymorphisms. Pedigree analysis verified the paternal origin of expressed allele, which is in consistency with previous report.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Coding SNP is an ideal marker for detecting gene imprinting by 5' nuclease assay. This approach has also a potentiality to discover differential allele expression of non-imprinted genes in order to find gene cis-acting functional polymorphism.</p>

Objective: To obtain polycystin-1 intracellular region. Methods: cDNA of polycystin-1 intracellular region was generated by PCR and then cloned into pProEX Hta, which was prokaryotic expression vector. After verified by sequencing, the recombinant was transformed into E.coli host to express and purify the fusion protein by affinity chromatography. Results: 660 bp cDNA of polycystin-1 intracellular region and 2.6×104 fusion protein were obtained. Conclusion: The fusion protein containing polycystin-1 intracellular region is obtained and is helpful for preparing anti-polycystin-1 monoclonal antibody.
