Objective To clone the coding sequence of Guangxi Bama mini-pig PGC-1αgene, and to analyze the expression of PGC-1αgene in various tissues of mini-pigs using RT-PCR and QRT-PCR techniques.Methods The PGC-1αgene coding sequence ( CDS) was amplified by PCR from the cDNA of longissimus muscle of Guangxi Bama mini-pig. The PCR products were inserted into pEASY-T5 vector, transfected E.coli, identified and sequenced.The PGC-1αgene expression in different tissues of the Bama mini-pigs was detected by RT-PCR and QRT-PCR assays.Results The PGC-1αgene CDS of Guangxi Bama mini-pig was cloned.It was 2391 bp in length.It had 99.9%homology with the reference sequence, and had two synonymous mutations that were C-A1105 and G-A1524.The expression level of PGC-1αgene was higher in the heart and kidney, followed by liver, subcutaneous fat and longissimus muscle, but the expression was not de-tected in pancreas of Guangxi Bama mini-pig.Conclusions We have successfully cloned the PGC-1αgene of Guangxi Bama mini-pig, and detected this gene expression in six tissues.The results of this study will provide a basis for studying the effect of PGC-1αon type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Bama mini-pigs.
