Problems solved by technology

At present, the research on HBV epigenetic marks only focuses on the methylation of the carbon atom at the 5th position of cytosine, that is, the 5mC modification, and has not yet involved the 6mA modification.
Moreover, the only research on 5mC modification of HBV is based on the extraction of HBV DNA with a very small amount and a very low degree of methylation modification from the body, and it is impossible to obtain a large amount of methylated HBV DNA. The study of viruses poses great limitations

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for modifying HBV with 6mA in vitro, comprising the following steps: (1) constructing a pEASY-HBV positive plasmid: cloning HBV into a pEASY-Blunt vector to obtain thepEASY-HBV positive plasmid; (2) preparing HBV cccDNA: taking the pEASY-HBV plasmid as a template, and adopting a PCR amplification method to obtain an HBV DNA amplification product; carrying out a digestion reaction on the amplification product and then carrying out a cyclization reaction to obtain HBV cccDNA; (3) extracting HepG2 nucleoprotein from human hepatocellular carcinoma cells: isolatingcytoplasmic protein and nucleoprotein of HepG2 cells and collecting HepG2 nucleoprotein; and (4) performing 6mA methylated modification of HBV cccDNA in vitro: taking HepG2 nucleoprotein as an enzyme, SAM as a methyl donor and HBV cccDNA as a substrate, incubating at 35-39 DEG C for 10-15 hours, and carrying out in-vitro 6mA methylated modification. The method provided by the invention is simpleto operate, successfully carries out 6mA methylated modification of HBV cccDNA in vitro for the first time, can be adopted to obtain a large number of 6mA modified HBV cccDNA products, and lays a foundation for the research of hepatitis B virus.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of molecular biology, in particular to a method for modifying hepatitis B virus with N6-methyladenine in vitro. Background technique [0002] DNA methylation is a common and important epigenetic modification that can alter genetic expression without changing the DNA sequence. DNA methylation in a broad sense refers to the specific bases on the DNA sequence under the catalysis of DNA methyltransferase (DNA methyltransferase, DNMT), with S-adenosylmethionine (S-adenosylmethionine, SAM) as the Methyl donor, the process of chemical modification to obtain a methyl group through covalent bonding. A large number of studies have shown that DNA methylation can cause changes in chromatin structure, DNA conformation, DNA stability, and the interaction between DNA and proteins, thereby controlling gene expression. DNA 6mA modification (DNA N6-methyladenine, 6mA) is a methylation (N6-adenine DNA methylation) modificati...
