摘要
人巨细胞病毒是一种DNA病毒,在人群中一般呈亚临床感染和潜伏感染。为研究病毒基因沉默工具和抗病毒制剂,以人巨细胞病毒UL54基因mRNA序列设计互补的外部引导序列,共价结合到大肠杆菌来源RNaseP催化核心M1RNA上,从而构建成M1GS-T6核酶。通过对DNA聚合酶UL54基因亚克隆片段转录产物体外切割研究,证实该核酶具备对UL54mRNA片段的特异切割能力。
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a DNA virus and serious opportunistic pathogen for both newborn and immunocompromised individuals.To research technique for gene silence and antiviral agents, ribozyme M1GS-T6 was constructed from external guide sequences(EGSs)that consist of a sequence complementary to HCMV UL54 gene RNA and M1 RNA, the catalytic RNA subunit of RNase P from Escherichia coli. The results showed that M1GS can efficiently cleave the mRNA sequence encoding UL54 protein in vitro.
