RT-PCR was then used to amplify porcine SREBP-1c gene with total RNA of spleen tissue. A 760 bp segment of cDNA was cloned and sequenced. Homogeneous comparison showed that the sequence of porcine SREBP-1c had 99.9% and 99.1% homogeneity with the two known partial mRNA sequences of porcine SREBP-1c gene. The complete cDNA was obtained mainly based on the known partial sequences, which has 3 830 bp, encoding 1 151 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 121 479 Da. It is the first time that we get complete encode sequence of porcine SREBP-1c gene. The complete cDNA sequence has high homogeneity with SREBP-1c gene of other species. A characteristic structure of HLH (Helix-Loop-Helix) and four transmembrane segments were found in the amino acids. The sequence had been submitted to GenBank (Accession No.NM_-214157).展开更多
