人类基因组计划的主要任务之一就是要从大片段基因组区域或整条染色体DNA 上鉴定出基因表达序列(gene expressed sequences)或转录单位(transcription units)。在人类基因组30亿个碱基对中,发生转录的表达序列(即基因)仅占总序列的3~5%。基因组中 绝大部分是基因间隔序列(intergenic seguences)或 内含子(intron)和各种各样的重复序列 ...
基因打靶技术是一种定向改变生物活体遗传信息的实验手段,它的产生和发展建立在胚胎干(ES) 细胞技术和同源重组技术成就的基础之上,并促进了相关技术的进一步发展。基因打靶技术将广泛应用于基因功能研究、人类疾病动物模型的研制以及经济动物遗传物质的改良等方面。 1 .原理 首先获得ES 细胞系,利用同源重组技术获得带有研究者预先设计突变的中靶ES 细胞。通过显微注射或者胚胎融合的方法将经过遗传修饰的ES ...
DNA片段的克隆需要合适的载体,载体或是质粒,或是噬菌体,或是病毒,通常大多经过人工改造一、质粒 常用的有pBR322,pUC系列质粒等。 (一)pBR322质粒是4362bp的环状双链DNA载体,有2个抗药性基因(四环素和氨苄青霉素),一个复制起始点和多个用于克隆的限制酶切点。当缺失抗药性基因的大肠杆菌被pBR322成功地转化时,它便从该质粒获得了抗生素抗性。两个抗生素基因中均含供插入外源DN ...
