Abstract:
Objective To clone a new human gene 5 trans-activated by pre-S1 protein of hepatitis B virus (HBV), PS1TP5, and explore its structure and function by bioinformatics analysis. Methods PS1TP5 was amplified by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique by using HepG2 cDNA as template and inserted into pGEM-T vector by TA cloning. Recombinant eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA TM 3.1/myc-His A-PS1TP5 had been constructed by subcloning, followed by restriction enzyme digestion analysis and sequencing. Bioinformatic methods were used to analyze its possible physical and chemical characters, structure, and function. Results PS1TP5 was successfully amplified and cloned into pGEM-T and pcDNA TM 3.1/myc-His A vector by RT-PCR from HepG2 cDNA. The new gene had been confirmed by sequencing after PCR identification and restriction enzyme digestion and named as PS1TP5 because of its trans-active function. The sequence for the PS1TP5 gene had been deposited into GenBank, the accession number was AY427953. Bioinformatics analysis showed that its ORF was 438bp and translated a protein of 145 aa. Conclusion A new gene-PS1TP5 has been recognized, and its recombinant eukaryotic expression vector (pcDNA TM 3.1/myc-His A-PS1TP5) has been constructed. These results will certainly bring some new clues for the study of the biological function of new gene and pathogenesis of chronic hepatitis B.
