摘要
mRNA differential display technique was performed to discuss the differential expression of genes in fat tissue between introduced European and Chinese indigenous pigs. Four anchor primers in combination with five arbitrary primers （20 sets in total） were used and nearly 300 bands were observed in polyacrylamide gel, among which 29 differential display bands were obtained. Twelve of 29 cDNA fragments were identified using reverse Northern dot blot, and subsequently cloned and sequenced. Eight of 12 cDNAs had no matches in GenBank and were submitted to GenBank, and the other 4 showed similarity to identified genes from GenBank. Three among 8 novel ESTs were selected to be further identified by semiquantitative RT-PCR. In our experiment, silver staining DDRT-PCR and DIG primer DNA labeling reverse Northern dot blot were used to avoid radioactive pollution. The result showed that the expressions of 5 among 8 novel ESTs were stronger in the backfat of Tongcheng pigs and the others were weaker than that in Duroc pigs. These novel ESTs were prepared for selecting genes related to adipose cells.
