    Abstract:
    [Objective] The research aimed to clone and analyze a new IFN-τ gene from yellow cattle in Shenyang area.[Method] A pair of specific primers were designed and synthesized according to the sequence(AY665673) of bovine IFN-τ gene published on NCBI website.The genomic DNA extracted from the kidney tissues of yellow cattle was taken as template for PCR amplification.After being reclaimed,the amplified products were connected with vector pUCm-T and transformed into competent cell DH5α of Escherichia coli.After the obtained plasmid was identified by PCR and double-enzyme digestion,it was made for sequencing and sequence analysis.[Result] Through PCR amplification,a specific band with the size of about 600 bp was obtained.Bovine IFN-τ gene was successfully recombined with the vector and the positive clone was obtained.The results of sequence analysis showed that the size of the cloned fragment was 586 bp and stop codon appeared at 376 bp and led to the translation termination.The nucleotide homology of this fragment with that of the sequence of AY665673 gene was 93.3% and their homology on the amino acid was 88.1%.[Conclusion] The cloned fragment was a new bovine IFN-τ gene probably.

    The total RNA was prepared from ConA stimulated thymocytes of a 5-week-old chicken according to the instructions of the trizol reagent.The CD8 alpha chain cDNA without its singal peptide sequence was amplified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) using a pair of gene specific primers.The obtained 651 bp fragment was identified by restriction enzyme digestion,the fragment was cloned to the pMD18-T vector and sequenced(the sequence has been deposited in GenBank with accession number of DQ202314).The sequence showed 98% homology with that of published chicken CD8 alpha chain.Subsequently, the verified fragment was digested with EcoRⅠ and SalⅠ and ligated to the pGEX-4T-1 vector using T_4 DNA ligase.The recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid,namely pGEX-4T-1-CD8α,was transformed into Escherichia coli strain BL21(DE3) and expressed as a GST fusion protein.The products were analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and a protein about 50 000 was observed.These suggest that the cloned gene encoding chicken CD8 alpha chain without signal peptide was expressed in prokaryotic system.

    Based on the published nucleotide sequence of bovine interferon-gamma(BovIFN-γ)gene,a pair of RT-PCR primers were designed and synthesized.The mature peptide fragments of γ-interferon gene was amplified using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)from total RNA of bovine peripheral blood lymphocytes,and then carried out cloning,sequencing and sequence analysis.The results showed that the mature peptide of BovIFN-γ gene can be successfully amplified by primers designed.Additionally,the homology between the amplified gene fragment sequence and the relevant sequence in GenBank can reach up to 99.77%。

    A specific pair of primers was designed and synthesized according to thesequence of swine IFN-α gene published NCBI GenBank, and a fragment of 500bp was amplified by PCR from the liver of (3-weeks-old) swine and the fragment was cloned into pMD18-T vector. The recombinant plasmids were (transferred) into the E.coli DH5α competent cells, which were incubated on ampicillin~(+)plates with X-gal and IPTG at 37℃overnight. The white clones were selected and incubated. The restriction endonuclease (analysis), PCR and sequence analysis indicated that the swine IFN-α cDNA was 501bp in full-length and (encodes) 167 amino acids. The homologies of nucleotide sequence between the swine IFN-α gene and M28623 and X57191 from GenBank were 99.4%and 99.2% respectively.

    Genome RNA was extracted from bone marrow of pig (Duroc╳Landrace╳Tai-hu) and Protegrin-1 (PPG-1) mRNA was amplified using RT-PCR. A DNA fragment about 565 bp in length was obtained and the PCR product was cloned into pGEM-T vector. Protegrin-1 gene was isolated and sequenced from the positive clones screened and the corresponding amino acid sequence was deduced from its nucleotide sequence.
