简介:应用DNA聚合酶链式反应(PCR)技术,对p16抑癌基因(CDKN2)进行体外定点突变,在p16cDNA中引入第48位密码子CCG(Pro)→CTG(Leu)和第74位密码子GAC(Asp)→AAC(Asn)突变,构建了p16-P48L和p16-D74N突变体。野生型和突变型p16cDNA克隆于pcDNA3构建pCMV-p16、pCMV-p16P48L和pCMV-p16D74N真核表达载体,导入纯合缺失p16基因的人肺癌细胞株H460,经RNA点杂交、RNA印迹和细胞免疫化学染色,检测到P16表达。通过比较表达野生型和突变型P16的H460细胞在~3H-TdR掺入及细胞所在周期的差异,证实P16表达抑制细胞进入S期,而P48L和D74N突变体对细胞进入S期没有什么影响,提示P48L和D74N突变导致P16蛋白功能丧失。
