英文摘要：

AIM： To investigate the expression of transmembrane protein 16A（ TMEM16A） in Fischer rat thyroid follicular epithelial（ FRT） cells and its electrophysiologic properties. METHODS： The eukaryotic expression vector of pUB6 /V5-TMEM16 A was constructed and transfected into FRT cells by liposome-mediated transfection. In order to obtain the high efficiency of gene transfection and expression,the quantity and ratio of lipid /DNA complexes were optimized.The FRT cells stably expressing TMEM16 A were gained by the selection with blasticidin and confirmed by the techniques of RT-PCR and immunofluorescence. The expression and location of TMEM16 A in the FRT cells were observed under an inverted fluorescence microscope. TMEM16 A protein was associated with calcium-dependent chloride current,as measured with halide-sensitive fluorescent protein and patch-clamp technique. RESULTS： The results of double digestion and sequencing indicated that TMEM16 A was cloned into pUB6 /V5. The results of RT-PCR and immunofluorescence confirmed that TMEM16 A was expressed in the FRT cells after transfection with TMEM16 A. The classical calcium-activated chloride channel currents were recorded in the FRT cells stably expressing TMEM16 A by the technique of patch-clamp and halidesensitive fluorescent protein YFP-H148 Q /I152 L. CONCLUSION： The protein expression of TMEM16 A in the FRT cells was observed. TMEM16 A is the molecular identity of calcium-activated chloride channels.
