Abstract:
Objective:To clone mouse CD226(platelet and T cell activation antigen1,PTA1).Methods:Specific primers were designed and sythesized according to the EST sequence from GenBank,which had 51% homology to human CD226 on the amino acid level.And then,the cDNA of mouse CD226 was cloned from the thymus of 4 week old BALB/c mouse by using RACE technique.Results:The length of mouse CD226 cDNA is 2 223 bp,with the open reading frame(ORF) of 1 002 bp,encoding 333 amino acids,which is 3 amino acids shorter than its counterpart in human.The mouse CD226 belongs to IgSF,and shares 53% homology with human PTA1 on amino acid level.Besides,three isoforms of mouse PTA1 were also cloned at the mean time.Conclusion:The molecular cloning of mouse PTA1 lays the foundation for the in vivo studies on the biological function of this molecule,as well as the studies of this molecule in gene knockout mouse and transgenic mouse.
