Expression of human gene 5 transactivated by pre-S1 protein of hepatitis B virus in yeast cell / 中华传染病杂志

Objective To study the exact function of human gene 5 transactivated by pre-S1 protein of hepatitis B virus(PS1TP5)by investigating the gene expression of PS1TP5 in yeast cells. Methods Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)was performed to amplify the gene of PS1TP5 using the mRNA of HepG2 cells as template and the gene was cloned into pGEM-T vector.The gene of PS1TP5 was cut from pGEM-T-PS1TP5 vector and cloned into yeast expressive plasmid pGBKT7,then pGBKT7-PS1TP5 was transformed into yeast cell AH109.The yeast protein was isolated and analyzed with sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis(SDS-PAGE) and Western hybridization.Results PS1TP5 gene was successfully amplified and identified by DNA sequencing.The digested fragment was cloned into pGBKT7 vector and transformed into yeast cell AH109.The results of SDS-PAGE and Western assay showed that the relative molecular weight of the expressed product was about 36 950,and PS1TP5 protein existed in yeast cells.Conclusion The findings suggest that PS1TP5 can be successfully expressed in yeast cell.

Cloning, prokaryotic expression and tissue expression profile of human novel gene HBVDNAPTP1 transactivated by hepatitis B virus DNA polymerase / 解放军医学杂志

Objective To clone the human target gene HBVDNAPTP1 transactivated by hepatitis B virus DNA polymerase obtained by screening with suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) and bioinformatics techniques. To construct prokaryotic expressive vector of HBVDNAPTP1 gene, induce the expression of recombinant protein in E. coli, and analyze the expression level of HBVDNAPTP1 gene in human tissues. Methods The DNA fragment of HBVDNAPTP1 was amplified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) taking mRNA from HepG2 cells as the template, and the correct DNA fragment was then inserted into inducible prokaryotic expressive vector pET-32a (+). The competent BL21 (DE3) E. coli was transformed, and then cultured and induced with IPTG. The expressed HBVDNAPTP1 was confirmed with Western blot. UniGene database was used to analyze the chromosome mapping and tissue expression profile of HBVDNAPTP1 gene. Results The DNA fragment of HBVDNAPTP1 was amplified by RT-PCR. HBVDNAPTP1 expressive vector was constructed. After transformation with pET-32a(+)-HBVDNAPTP1 and induction with IPTG, recombinant HBVDNAPTP1 was expressed and confirmed by Western blot. The expression of genomic location of HBVDNAPTP1 gene was low in multiple-tissues with the exception of pituitary gland, tonsil, tongue, thymus, trachea and umbilical cord. Conclusion The recombinant HBVDNAPTP1 gene could be expressed in prokaryotic expression system of E. coli. The chromosome mapping and tissue expression level of HBVDNAPTP1 gene is tentatively conceived.
