A hammerhead ribozyme (Rz464) specific to 463-465 GUC triplet of C Ⅱ TA and its target gene were transcribed, then mixed up and incubated in vitro . The cleavage products were analyzed by PAGE and silver staining. Rz464 was then inserted into the pIRES2 EGFP vector (pRz464). Stable transfectants of Hela with pRz464 were tested for class Ⅱ MHC induction by recombinant human interferon gamma (IFN γ). mRNA of C Ⅱ TA was measured by RT PCR. Our results showed that Rz464 could exclusively cleave C Ⅱ TA RNA. When induced with IFN γ, the expression of HLA DR, DP, DQ on pRz464 + Hela was induced, and the mRNA content of C Ⅱ TA decreased too. It is concluded that Rz464 could inhibit C Ⅱ TA and thus the family of genes was regulated by C Ⅱ TA:MHC Ⅱ molecules. These results provided insight into the future application of Rz464 as a new nucleic acid drug against auto immune diseases.展开更多
目的:构建携带小鼠MHCII类分子反式激活因子(MHC class II molecule transactivator,CIITA)突变体基因的腺病毒,并观察腺病毒介导该基因的表达情况以及表达产物的体外功能。方法:采用常规分子生物学方法从IFN-γ诱导后的BALB/c小鼠腹腔...目的:构建携带小鼠MHCII类分子反式激活因子(MHC class II molecule transactivator,CIITA)突变体基因的腺病毒,并观察腺病毒介导该基因的表达情况以及表达产物的体外功能。方法:采用常规分子生物学方法从IFN-γ诱导后的BALB/c小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞中获得IV型CIITA cDNA;利用重叠延伸PCR法构建CIITA突变体基因,并克隆入表达载体pIRES;采用pAdEasy-1系统获得具有感染能力的、携带CIITA突变体基因的缺陷型重组腺病毒(Ad-CIITAm)和空载对照病毒(Ad-GFP),并经大量扩增、纯化及滴度测定;将Ad-CIITAm和Ad-GFP分别感染HeLa细胞和Raji细胞,流式细胞术观察对诱导型和组成型HLA-DR分子表达的影响。结果:成功克隆了小鼠CIITA突变体基因,并构建了携带小鼠CIITA突变体基因的重组腺病毒Ad-CIITAm;经流式细胞术证实感染Ad-CIITAm的Hela和Raji细胞较感染Ad-GFP的细胞,其表面HLA-DR分子的表达均受到明显的抑制。结论:本实验证实了重组腺病毒介导表达的小鼠CIITA突变体在体外能够有效地抑制MHCII类分子的表达。展开更多
