广西巴马小型猪PGC-1α基因克隆与组织表达分析

Cloning and analysis of tissue expression of PGC-1α gene in Guangxi Bama mini-pigs

目的克隆广西巴马小型猪PGC-1α基因编码区(CDS)序列,利用RT-PCR和QRT-PCR方法分析PGC-1αmRNA组织表达情况。方法本实验以广西巴马小型猪背最长肌cDNA为模版,PCR扩增PGC-1α基因CDS序列,将其连接至pEASY-T5载体,转染细菌、验证和序列测定;通过RT-PCR半定量和QRT-PCR实时荧光定量检测PGC-1α基因在小型猪多个组织中的表达情况。结果克隆获得广西巴马小型猪PGC-1α基因CDS序列,全长2391 bp,编码796个氨基酸,与参考序列的同源性为99.9%,两处碱基发生同义突变,分别是C-A1105和GA1524;PGC-1α基因在广西巴马小型猪心脏和肾脏中的表达丰度最高,其次是肝脏、皮下脂肪和背最长肌,而在胰腺中未检测到其表达。结论成功克隆了广西巴马小型猪PGC-1α基因编码区序列并进行了多种组织表达分析,为后续研究PGC-1α在小型猪2型糖尿病发生过程中作用途径打下基础。

Objective To clone the coding sequence of Guangxi Bama mini-pig PGC-1αgene, and to analyze the expression of PGC-1αgene in various tissues of mini-pigs using RT-PCR and QRT-PCR techniques.Methods The PGC-1αgene coding sequence （ CDS） was amplified by PCR from the cDNA of longissimus muscle of Guangxi Bama mini-pig. The PCR products were inserted into pEASY-T5 vector, transfected E.coli, identified and sequenced.The PGC-1αgene expression in different tissues of the Bama mini-pigs was detected by RT-PCR and QRT-PCR assays.Results The PGC-1αgene CDS of Guangxi Bama mini-pig was cloned.It was 2391 bp in length.It had 99.9%homology with the reference sequence, and had two synonymous mutations that were C-A1105 and G-A1524.The expression level of PGC-1αgene was higher in the heart and kidney, followed by liver, subcutaneous fat and longissimus muscle, but the expression was not de-tected in pancreas of Guangxi Bama mini-pig.Conclusions We have successfully cloned the PGC-1αgene of Guangxi Bama mini-pig, and detected this gene expression in six tissues.The results of this study will provide a basis for studying the effect of PGC-1αon type 2 diabetes mellitus （T2DM） in Bama mini-pigs.
