Objective To construct the eukaryotic expression vector of human telomerase RNA component ( hTR) and study its biological function tentatively .Methods hTR Gene was obtained by PCR from cDNA template , which was reverse transcribed from 293T mRNA and cloned into pCDNA3.0 vector.The recombinant plasmid and empty vector were trans-fected into 293T cells, and hTR expression was identified by qRT-PCR.HepG2 cells that stably transfected with pCDNA3.0-hTR were constructed and identified by qRT-PCR.These cells were used to assess the interaction of hTR with human telomerase revese transcriptase ( hTERT ) and dyskerin .Telomerase activity was also detected in HepG 2 cells transfected with pCDNA3.0-hTR.Results pCDNA3.0-hTR eukaryotic expression vector was successfully constructed by double digestion identification .The inserted fragment was confirmed by sequencing .The expression of hTR in human 293T cells and HepG2 pCDNA3.0-hTR stable cell line was identified.In addition, qRT-PCR and Western blotting results showed that hTR could interact with hTERT and dyskerin , while hTR overexpression could not regulate the telomerase activity in HepG2 cells.Conclusion The eukaryotic expression vector of pCDNA 3.0-hTR is successfully constructed and expressed.This study will contribute to the further study of cancer therapy targeting hTR .

Objective To detect the effect of E6AP on gastric cancer cell proliferation and migration.Methods The expression of E6AP in different gastric cancer cell lines and normal gastric mucosa epithelial cell lines was detected by Western blotting.Gastric cancer cells BGC-823 stably expressing E6AP short hairpan RNA(shRNA) were obtained by lentiviral vector of E6AP.The effect of E6AP on BGC-823 cell growth and migration was determined by CCK-8 kit, Tran-swell and wound healing assay.Results Gastric cancer cell line BGC-823 in which E6AP was stably knocked down was established.Knockdown of E6AP inhibited the proliferation and migration of BGC-823 cells.Conclusion E6AP plays a key role in gastric cancer proliferation and migration.
