Objective To construct the specific RNA interference vector targeting human 14-3-3ζ gene and to establish a human glioma cell line stably transfected with the vector. Methods According to 14-3-3ζ DNA coding sequence, the specific RNA interference (RNAi) fragments targeting 14-3-3g gene were designed and synthesized, which were cloned into pSileneer3.1-Hlneo plasmid vector, and the shRNA eukaryotic expression vector pSileneer-14-3-3ζ targeting 14-3-3ζ gene was constructed. The pSilencer-14-3-3ζ vector and negative pSilencer-14-3-3ζ vector were transfected respectively into U251 cells by LipofectamineTM 2000, and the transfected cells were selected by G418. Anti-G418 clones were isolated and Western blot methods were carried out for the identification of integration of protein levels. Results The specific shRNA eukaryotic expression vector pSilencer-14-3-3ζ targeting 14-3-3ζ gene was constructed successfully, which was identified by restriction endonuclease digestion and sequencing. Cell clones sorted out with G418 selection which had stably integrated RNAi vector targeting 14-3-3ζ gene were obtained. Conclusion Expression of 14-3-3ζ gene can be suppressed markedly by specific RNA interference vector in U251 cells which provides the experimental foundation for the further study on the biological functions and mechanisms of 14-3-3ζ in U251 cells.
