摘要:

巴德-毕氏综合症(Bardet-Biedl syndrome,BBS)是一种由多种基因突变造成、与原生纤毛功能缺失相关的疾病,包含12种致病基因,分别为BBS1-12。旨在通过对衣藻BBS1基因进行RNAi干扰来研究其在衣藻中的功能。首先搭建衣藻快捷简单的RNAi骨架载体;再用RT-PCR克隆莱茵衣藻BBS1基因的一段cDNA 序列于中间载体pEASY-T1上;测序后通过两次酶切连接到RNAi骨架载体上,经菌液PCR、酶切和测序验证,成功构建BBS1基因的RNAi干涉载体。经基因枪介导法转化莱茵衣藻CC503,转基因衣藻具有明显不同于对照的表现型,趋光性发生了改变。

Abstract:

Bardet-Biedl syndrome is a disease caused by mutations of various genes and associated with afunction of primary cilia. There are 12 disease-causing genes of BBS1-12 respectively. This study aimed to understand the function of BBS1 gene in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii through RNAi interference technology. Firstly, the fast and simple RNAi backbone vector was constructed. Subsequently, a cDNA in BBS1 gene was cloned into media vector pEASY-T1 using RT-PCR. After sequencing, the target fragment was inserted into the RNAi backbone vector through the twice enzyme digestion. Verified by PCR testing, enzyme digestion and sequencing, the RNAi vector of BBS1 gene was successfully constructed. The phenotype of transgenic C. reinhardtii CC503 transformed into BBS1 RNAi plasmid by gene gun was significantly different from that of the control and their phototaxis changed compared to the control.
