Problems solved by technology

However, the limitation of the traditional method is not limited to the time. More importantly, the restriction endonuclease sites at both ends of the target gene to be knocked out have great chance, and the same endonuclease cannot be used for each part. As a result, there is very little room for choice in the experimental operation, which not only increases the difficulty of the experiment, but also limits the flexibility of gene knockout, making it more difficult to achieve the expected effect of the experimental design
On the other hand, the method of BAC screening is used in the acquisition of homology arms by traditional methods, which is not only time-consuming (about 1 month), labor-intensive, and expensive (about 2000-4000 US dollars), but the use of radioactive isotopes is also harmful to the work. serious harm to the health of the
All of the above have largely delayed the study of gene function

[0033] Example 1 Vector Construction of HRPT2 Conditional Knockout Mice

[0034] HRPT2 is a tumor suppressor gene discovered and cloned in recent years, and the protein encoded by it is called Parafibromin. Mutations in the HRPT2 gene cause parathyroid neoplasia syndrome in humans. However, the physiological function of this gene is still unclear. The construction of HRPT2 conditional knockout mice is an effective means to study its normal physiological functions. In the experimental design, we plan to knock out the second exon of the gene, so as to cause a frame shift during gene translation and cause the encoded protein to be invalid. In this experiment, the 5' homology arm, the 3' homology arm, and the second exon were obtained by PCR amplification. The primers are as follows: 5' homology arm forward primer 5'-GGGG ACAACTTTGTATAGAAAAGTTG CAGTACAACATCCAGAAG-AAGGAGA-3′, reverse primer 5′-GGGG- ACTGCTTTTTTGTACAAACTTG GT-GCTTGAGATCAACTGCAGAGAC-3'. 3' homology arm forwar...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method of rapid construct vector by aid of Gateway clone system used for gene-shooting-target recombination, Firstly, by using special designing PCR primer for PCR amplification to obtain 5' and 3' homologous arms that use in homologous recombination, insert the homologous arms in vector pDONRP4-P1R and pDONRP2R-P3 individually by BP recombination reaction; then, inserting the target fragment to intermediate vector pDONR loxP / MCS / loxP- FRT / NEO / FRT that we construct creativity; finally, after one hour fast LR recombination reaction of the 3 vectors showing above and pDEST R4-R3TK vector mixture, the 5' homologous arm, the intermediate fragment, 3' homologous arm and the TK subtractive screen selecting element will split joint according to the designing sequence, by transformation and purification, shoot target gene vector will obtained. The method has the advantage of rapid, flexible, timesaving and labor saving, and the method break-through the controlling of endoenzyme site distribution in traditional method. The method has significant in study of gene function.

Description

1. Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the frontier fields of molecular biology and genetics, and is a fast, flexible and convenient method for constructing a vector for gene targeting and recombination invented by creatively transforming the Gateway recombination reaction system derived from λ bacteriophage. 2. Technical background [0002] The completion of the Human Genome Sequencing Project is not only a great achievement in the field of biology in recent decades, but also poses new challenges to biological workers. Since the genome sequence cannot directly deduce how the RNA and protein encoded by the genome integrate with each other to perform functions such as cell growth, development, and differentiation, so as to form the shape, physiology, and behavior of the entire human body, the main tasks of the post-genome era are both research and development. Elucidate the function of tens of thousands of genes. However, due to the complexity of human physiologi...
