磷氧氮丙啶诱发CHO细胞HGPRT基因位点正向突变的分子特征

Molecular Characteristic of CHO Cells HGPRT Locus Forward Mutation Induced by MAPO

ＭＡＰＯ诱发的ＣＨＯ细胞ＨＧＰＲＴ基因位点突变克隆ＤＮＡ，经ＥｃｏＲＩ和ＰｓｔＩ酶切消化后，用Ｓｏｕｔｈｅｒｎ印迹杂交法，与ＨＧＰＲＴ基因探针杂交。从杂交图谱可见，正常ＣＨＯ细胞基因组ＤＮＡ经ＰｓｔＩ酶切后杂交可显出６条杂交带，其中８３ｋｂ，７６ｋｂ，６０ｋｂ，和３２ｋｂ带为Ｘ染色体连锁的ＨＧＰＲＴ基因所有，分别代表外显子２，６８，４和３，其余两条带为假基因。而经ＥｃｏＲＩ酶切后，正常ＣＨＯ细胞基因组ＤＮＡ有１７５ｋｂ和１１３ｋｂ两条ＨＧＰＲＴ基因杂交带，分别代表了外显子６９和２４。而从ＭＡＰＯ所诱发的ＨＧＰＲＴ基因突变细胞杂交图谱可见，其主要改变是ＨＧＰＲＴ基因全部缺失或部分缺失，同时出现了新的杂交带。ＰｓｔＩ酶切的７个突变克隆均显出基因缺失或新的杂交带型，而ＥｃｏＲＩ酶切８个突变克隆中，有３个无ＨＧＰＲＴ基因改变。由此可见，ＭＡＰＯ诱发ＨＧＰＲＴ基因位点突变的分子机理主要是由于基因缺失或重排。

The molecular chardacteristics of forward mutation on CHO cells HGPRT locus induced by MAPO were studied.Southern blot analysis indicated that 7 mutant DNA digested with PstI showed HGPRT gene deletion or/and the presence of new gene fragment,but DNA of 3 mutants among 8 mutants digested with Ecorl showed the same results as wild CHO cells.All the results above suggested that the molecular mechanism that MAPO induced CHO cell HGPRT mutation were based on gene's deletion and rearrangement.
