Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Small conductance,Ca2+-activated potassium(SK)channel,presents in various cell types and plays a crucial role in action potential profile.However,coupling and modulation of calcium and associated molecules to SK2 channel remains unclear.OBJECTIVE: To construct the recombinants of pGBAT7 and target fragments of SK2 gene,so as to observe the coupling and regulation of SK2 channel gene to calcium and other molecules.METHODS: Three pairs of primers of the target fragments of SK2 gene were designed and synthesized based on the full-length sequences of SK2.After being identified,they were individually sub-cloned into the yeast expressive plasmid pGBKT7 to construct pGBKT7-SK2 vectors.The recombinant pGBKT7-SK2 vectors were transformed into yeast AH109 by electroporation,and their activation was tested.The recombinants were extracted from yeast AH109 and verified by electrophoresis and sequencing.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The target fragments of SK2 gene by PCR were 411,546 and 729 bp,respectively.Three sub-clones of pGBKT7-SK2 were successfully constructed.Electrophoresis and sequencing showed that the constructed sub-clones of pGBKT7-SK2 met the expected requirements.The recombinant pGBKT7-SK2 vectors transformed into the yeast could be activated.The successful construction of the sub-clones of SK2 gene provides an important material basis for further study in the SK2 channel and function-associated molecules.
