The invention relates to a method for constructing a mouse TCR alpha CDR3 region sequencing
library. The method mainly comprises the following steps: (1) extracting
total RNA from mouse tissues or
whole blood; (2) reversely transcribing the
RNA into cDNA, ligating a
linker sequence to the end of the long-stranded cDNA, and amplifying TCR alpha containing a CDR3 region through a universal C-terminal primer and a
linker sequence primer; (3) fragmenting the TCR alpha through Tn5
transposase, and enriching a CDR3 region sequence; and (4) carrying out sequencing by an illumina high-
throughput sequencing platform. The method is suitable for
library construction of tissues containing various types of T cells, and body fluids, can highly-efficiently amplify the mouse TCR alpha through a 5'RACE technology in an agonic manner, and solves the problems of difficulty in control of the template copy number and the offset of the product, caused by
multiplex PCR amplification; and the Tn5
enzyme's ability to simultaneously complete
DNA fragmentation and
linker ligation and a specific primer are used to fast and accurately enrich and construct a
library of the
hypervariable region (CDR3 region) ofthe TCR alpha, so pertinent sequencing, easy
data analysis and sequencing cost saving are achieved.
