目的:用于负链RNA病毒的重组技术称为反向遗传技术,其核心需要构建一个具有双向启动子的反向遗传通用载体,可以分别正向转录翻译病毒复制所需酶系和负向转录病毒负链RNA。为此,构建负链RNA病毒反向遗传通用的载体。方法:为提高转染和表达效率,首先改造pcDNA3载体,通过酶切删除pcDNA3载体中非必需序列,在保留Amp抗性的前提下,通过酶切去除pcDNA3载体中非必需的Kan抗性表达盒与CMV启动子前区。利用长引物合成含有反向polI启动子与多克隆位点的基因片段。将合成后的片段酶切、补平粘端、连接,反向插入至经改造后的pcDNA3载体中,构建反向遗传通用表达载体。采用PCR检测、酶切鉴定以及DNA测序进行验证。结果:PCR检测、酶切鉴定以及DNA测序结果表明,载体构建正确,合成及插入序列与预期设计完全一致。结论:成功构建具有CMV与polI双向启动子的反向遗传通用载体,为建立负链RNA病毒反向遗传平台提供了研究基础。
OBJECTIVE:To construct a system for reverse genetics of minus RNA viruses,the universal reverse genetic vector was constructed.METHODS:Using pcDNA3 as plasmid backbone,non-essential Kanamycin resistant expression cassettes and CMV promoter upstream region were removed.Then the fragment including reverse pol I promoter and multiple clone site were synthesized by PCR and inserted into the reconstructed pcDNA3.The modified pcDNA3 and universal reverse genetic vector were identified by restriction enzyme.RESULTS:Sequencing showed that the universal reverse genetic vector which had CMV and pol I bidirectional promoter was constructed successfully.CONCLUSION:This research established reverse genetics system of minus RNA viruses and provided research basis for further development of minus RNA viruses.
