Construction of eukaryotic expression plasmid of human promyelocytic leukemia gene of six transcripts and subcellular location analysis of its recombinant proteins / 中国生物制品学杂志

ABSTRACT

@#Objective To construct eukaryotic expression plasmids of human promyelocytic leukaemia(hPML) gene of six transcripts and analyze the subcellular location of the recombinant proteins.Methods Primers were designed according to the hPML gene sequences registered in GenBank databases.Six transcripts of hPML gene fragments(hPML Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅳ,Ⅴ,Ⅵ and Ⅶ) were amplified by RT-PCR,which were linked to the eukaryotic expression vector pCAGGS respectively.The obtained eukaryotic expression plasmids of six transcripts of hPML gene were transfected into 293T cells respectively and detected for their protein expression by Western blot,while transfected into Vero cells and detected for their subcellular location by indirect immunofluorescence assay(IFA).Results The target gene fragments of the six eukaryotic expression plasmids were consistent with the hPML gene sequences registered in GenBank.All the six recombinant proteins showed specific binding with Myc antibody,among which the recombinant protein hPML Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅳ,Ⅴ and Ⅵ were located in the nucleus and cytoplasm,while the recombinant protein hPML Ⅶ was mainly located in the cytoplasm,rarely in the nucleus.Conclusion The eukaryotic expression plasmids of six transcripts of hPML gene all can be expressed correctly in mammalian cells,and the expressed recombinant proteins were located in nucleus and cytoplasm simultaneously or mainly in cytoplasm.This study provides an experimental basis for subsequent study on the antiviral and other biological functions of recombinant protein hPML.
