荧光素酶报告基因:荧光素酶报告基因是指以荧光素(luciferin)为底物来检测萤火虫荧光素酶(fireflyluciferase)活性的一种报告系统。
荧光素酶:可催化荧光素氧化,在荧光素氧化的过程中,会发出生物荧光。荧光素和荧光素酶这一生物发光体系,可以极其灵敏、高效地检测基因的表达。是检测转录因子与目的基因启动子区DNA相互作用的一种检测方法。
摘要
背景
:自噬可以通过抑制凋亡来缓解膝骨关节炎,miR-140是否可以调节自噬关键基因丝氨酸/苏氨酸蛋白激酶-失调51样激酶1(uncoordinated 51 like kinase-1,ULK1)基因未见报道。
目的:探索miRNA-140对ULK1基因的调控关系。
方法:通过miRNA靶基因预测网站预测ULK1基因是否为miRNA-140的靶基因;将ULK1基因的3'端非翻译区全长序列载入海肾荧光素酶基因的下游,通过构建结合位点的突变序列,得到野生型和突变型载体,分别用野生型和突变型海肾荧光素酶载体转染293T细胞,检测每种转染细胞海肾荧光素酶的表达活性;运用miRNA-140 inhibitor对293T细胞进行干预,Western blot检测ULK1蛋白表达水平。
结果与结论:与野生型载体组细胞相比,加入miR-140 mimics后荧光素酶的表达活性明显降低(P < 0.01);当抑制miRNA-140后,ULK1蛋白的表达明显升高(P < 0.01)。结果证实,miRNA-140可以与ULK1基因靶向结合从而调控其表达。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Autophagy can alleviate the development of knee osteoarthritis by inhibiting cell apoptosis. However, it is still unclear that whether miR-140 can regulate the key gene uncoordinated 51 like kinase-1 (ULK1) in autophagy.
OBJECTIVE: To explore the regulatory role of miR-140 on the ULK1 gene.
METHODS: The microRNA website was used to predict whether the ULK1 was the target gene of miR-140. Firstly, the full-length sequence of 3'-untranslated region of ULK1 was embed in the downstream of the renilla luciferase gene. Secondly, the mutant sequence of binding sites was constructed to obtain wild type vector and mutant vector. Thirdly, the expression activity of luciferase was detected after transfecting 293T cells with these luciferase vectors. Lastly, 293T cells were treated with miRNA-140 inhibitor, and the expression level of ULK1 protein was detected by western blot assay.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The expression activity of luciferase was significantly decreased in 293T cells transfected by wild type vector and miR-140 mimics compared with the cells transfected by wild type vector alone (P < 0.01). In addition, the expression of ULK1 protein was significantly increased when miR-140 was inhibited (P < 0.01). These results imply that miR-140 can regulate the expression of ULK1 gene by binding with its gene sequence.
