摘要
目的观察p53基因在肝癌细胞中的正常表达及定位情况。方法根据野生型p53基因的编码顺序,PCR方法扩增突变的wt-p53基因,使其3’端的终止密码TGA突变为TGG;用基因重组技术将其与绿色荧光蛋白(green fluorescence protein, GFP)融合,通过真核表达质粒一脂质体介导,导入人高转移肝癌细胞系MHCC97(PCR检测有p53基因突变)中。用荧光显微镜观察p53的表达情况。结果MHCC97细胞中存在p53基因第249位的突变,而低转移入肝癌细胞LD20则无此突变。DNA顺序测定表明:wt一p53基因与GFP基因达到编码框架内融合。荧光显微镜显示在空白载体pEGFP-N1转染的MHCC97细胞中荧光布满整个细胞,在转染阳性载体pEGFP-53的MHCC97细胞中荧光仅聚集在细胞核中。结论p53基因第249位上的突变可能与肝癌细胞的转移特性有关;转染的人高转移肝癌细胞系MHCC97能高效表达p53蛋白,并定位于细胞核内,与野生型p53基因的表达方式相同。
Objective To study the normal expression and location of wt-p53 protein on human high-metastasis hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) cell line. Methods According to the sequence of human wild-type p53, the mp53 cDNA in which stopped codon TGA was mutated to TGG, was amplified by PCR, ligated to EGFP gene, of pEGFP-NI. The re- combinant plasmid was transfected into MHCC97, in which p53 gene was mutated. The expression of human p53 protein was observed by fluorescence microscopy. Results There was a p53 mutation on 249 codon in human high-metastasis hepatocellular carcinoma cell line MHCC97, but no mutation in low-metastasis HCC cells LD20. The two genes of wt-p53 and GFP were fused in codon frame by DNA sequencing. The fluorescence microscopy showed that fluorescence light was spread in all of MHCC97 cells transfected with pEGFP-N1, but fluorescence light was focused on the nucleus of MHCC97 cells transfected with pEGFP-53. Conclusion The p53 mutation on 249 codon may be related to the character of metastasis of HCC cells. The human wild-type P53-GFP fusion protein is expressed in MHCC97 cell line and located in cell nucleus, which is similar to the expression of wt-p53 protein.
