Problems solved by technology

Site-specific cleavage of the meiotic cohesin protein REC8 by separase during the first meiosis is a critical step in eukaryotic gamete generation, but currently, chromosome localization and dynamics of this critical cleavage step are analyzed Can only be roughly inferred based on downstream genetic data in lower eukaryotes

Embodiment 1

[0118] Embodiment 1 Experimental scheme design

[0119] Figure 1A and Figure 1B is the hydrolysis schematic diagram of the complex based on RAD21 and the complex based on REC8, wherein, Figure 1A Schematic representation of somatic cohesin complexes (RAD21-based) and proteolysis from metaphase to anaphase transition, three proteolytic fragments are RAD21*N, RAD21*M and RAD21*C; Figure 1B Schematic diagram of the proteolysis of the germline-specific cohesin complex (REC8-based) and prometaphase of the first meiosis and anaphase of the second meiosis. The three proteolytic fragments are REC8*N, REC8 *M and REC8*C.

[0120] Cleavage of cohesin occurs at the centromere during the metaphase-to-anaphase transition. In order to study the epigenomic map of cohesin fragmentation during the meiotic and mitotic cycles, a reagent capable of recognizing full-length cohesin subunits from proteolytic fragments produced by separase is required, which requires recognition of separase Th...

Embodiment 2

[0122] Example 2 Identification of Anti-RAD21 Neoepitope Monoclonal Antibody

[0123] In order to prepare a specific monoclonal antibody that recognizes the COOH terminus produced by the hydrolysis of separase cleavage cohesin RAD21, mice were immunized with polypeptides DREIMR and IEEPSR that simulate the cleavage site, and the corresponding relationship between the polypeptide sequence and the cleavage site is as follows Figure 3A shown in .

[0124] The spleen cells of the immunized mice were fused with the myeloma cells, and the positive clones obtained by screening were transplanted into the peritoneal cavity of the mice. The hybridoma ascites was selected for western blot experiments, and some shorter and longer peptides were used as controls to detect the fusion peptide between the COOH end of the polypeptide near the RAD21 cleavage site and GST.

[0125] Through the above operations, two clones with specificity for the RAD21*N-terminal and two clones with specificity...

Embodiment 3

[0128] Example 3 Identification of Anti-REC8 Neoepitope Monoclonal Antibody

[0129] Using a method similar to that in Example 2, a specific monoclonal antibody recognizing the COOH terminus produced by the hydrolysis of the cohesin REC8 cleaved by the separase was prepared. Mice were immunized with peptides that mimic the cleavage site, and the correspondence between the peptide sequence and the cleavage site is as follows: Figure 4A shown.

[0130]The spleen cells of the immunized mice were fused with the myeloma cells, and the positive clones obtained by screening were transplanted into the peritoneal cavity of the mice. The hybridoma ascites was selected for western blot experiments, and the fusion peptide of the COOH terminal of the polypeptide near the REC8 cleavage site and the GST fusion peptide was screened, and a series of antibodies that specifically recognized REC8*N and REC8*M were found, such as Figure 4B shown. It can be seen from the figure that antibodies...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for in-situ detection of a separase cleavage product, and the method comprises the following steps: using an anti-REC8 neo-epitope monoclonal antibody and / or an anti-RAD21 neo-epitope monoclonal antibody to recognize neo-epitopes generated after hydrolysis of cohesion protein, then cooperating with ChIP-seq analysis, constructing a chromatin protein cleavage map, and carrying out in-situ detection on the separase cleavage product. The invention also provides an anti-REC8 new epitope monoclonal antibody and an anti-RAD21 new epitope monoclonal antibody. The invention also provides the anti-REC8 new epitope monoclonal antibody and the anti-RAD21 new epitope monoclonal antibody. The two kinds of cohesion protein neoepitope monoclonal antibodies have good specificity, and create conditions for construction of chromatin protein cracking maps and in-situ detection of separase cracking products.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of epigenetics, and in particular relates to a method for in situ detection of split enzyme cleavage products. Background technique [0002] The cohesin complex is a multifunctional protein polymer that plays a key role in somatic cells in organizing gene expression during interphase and maintaining and releasing sister chromatid cohesion at specific times in the mitotic cycle . However, during gamete development, multiple different cohesin complexes co-exist in mammalian germline cells, and experimental studies have so far characterized at least two cohesin complexes in detail: based on REC8 and RAD21L complex (Biswas, 2016). Although RAD21L is absent in lower eukaryotes, REC8 is a ubiquitous meiotic cohesin subunit that also plays critical roles in meiotic chromosome and chromatid segregation. [0003] The gene expression program and cell regulation of meiosis are extremely complex, involving multiple i...
