To construct the RNA interference expression vector for expression of human neuropathy target esterase (NTE) gene in mammalian cells.
Spe I and Xho I-digested insert from pSUPER, which comprised H1 RNA polymerase III promoter and the multiple cloning sites, were cloned into the compatible in the pcDNA3.1 (+) to generate pSUPER/neo that could express small interfering RNA in mammalian cells. The annealed oligos targeting the expression of NTE were ligated into pSUPER/neo vector digested with Bgl II and Hind III to generate pSUPER/neo-NTE, which was transfected into COS7 and SH-SY5Y cells. The inhibitory effect of the expression of NTE was detected by western blot analysis and the enzyme activity assay.
pSUPER/neo-NTE could stably express double-stranded RNA of NTE. The expression of pSUPER/neo-NTE in COS7 and SH-SY5Y cells could efficiently inhibit the activity of NTE in the mammalian cells.
Stable eukaryotic expression vector of double-stranded RNA of NTE, pSUPER/neo-NTE, has been constructed successfully with promoter substitution strategy.
构建用于在哺乳动物细胞中表达人神经病靶酯酶(NTE)基因的RNA干扰表达载体。
将经Spe I和Xho I酶切的pSUPER插入片段(包含H1 RNA聚合酶III启动子和多克隆位点)克隆到pcDNA3.1(+)的相应位点,构建能在哺乳动物细胞中表达小干扰RNA的pSUPER/neo。将退火后的靶向NTE表达的寡核苷酸连接到经Bgl II和Hind III酶切的pSUPER/neo载体上,构建pSUPER/neo-NTE,并将其转染到COS7和SH-SY5Y细胞中。通过蛋白质免疫印迹分析和酶活性测定检测NTE表达的抑制效果。
pSUPER/neo-NTE能稳定表达NTE双链RNA。pSUPER/neo-NTE在COS7和SH-SY5Y细胞中的表达能有效抑制哺乳动物细胞中NTE的活性。
采用启动子替换策略成功构建了NTE双链RNA的稳定真核表达载体pSUPER/neo-NTE。
