利用模式動(dòng)物斑馬魚研究基因FoxP4在心臟發(fā)育中的作用
[Abstract]:In this paper, a zebrafish model was used to study the regulatory function of FoxP4 gene in the development of the heart. FoxP4 interacting protein CatD, Tcap and FBXL5 were screened by yeast two hybrid technique. The regulatory functions of FoxP4 and its interacting protein CatD, Tcap and FBXL5 in the development of heart were further studied.
The human FoxP4 gene is located on chromosome sixth. Bioinformatics analysis shows that the gene cDNA is long 5965bp, with a total of 17 exons, and the span of the genome is 54kb, encoding a protein with a length of 680 amino acids, which contains a C2H2 zinc finger structure at the N- end and a Fork Head domain of the C- end, with the function of binding DNA. The transcription factors of the Foxp subgroup with the flanking spiral structure, the high homology.RT-PCR and the Northern Blot in the subgroup of FoxP1, FoxP2, and Northern Blot found that the human FoxP4 gene is widely expressed in the human embryonic development processes, such as the heart, the brain, the lung, the liver and the intestines. The in situ hybridization experiment also showed that the zebrafish FoxP4 gene was also found. The FoxP4 gene is a necessary transcription factor in the early embryonic development. We screened and identified three interacting proteins, CatD, Tcap and FBXL5, and both FoxP4 and the three proteins. Interaction.
Using the model animal zebrafish and the transgenic zebrafish nppa: GFP model with GFP specifically labeled heart, we have studied the functions of FoxP4 and its interacting genes, CatD, Tcap and FBXL5, to study the.RNA interference and Morpholino knockout experiments, and the expression of the protein expression of the knockout FoxP4, CatD, Tcap, or the zebrafish embryo. Cardiac abnormalities, such as atrial enlargement, arrhythmia, and failure of the heart, suggest that FoxP4 and its interacting genes, CatD, Tcap and FBXL5, are involved in early cardiac morphogenesis, and the essential.RT-PCR experimental results in the cardiac signaling pathway show that the protein expression of FoxP4 and its interacting genes, CatD and Tcap, are expressed, The cardiac signaling pathway regulated by Nkx2.5 is hindered, which affects the expression of the downstream genes, such as the expression of cardiac-actin and Nkx2.5, which affects the development of the heart and produces deformities. It proves that the FoxP4 and its interacting genes, CarD and Tcap, are downstream of the cardiac signaling pathway regulated by Nkx2.5 and are regulated by Nkx2.5. FoxP4 and CatD may be in the position between Nkx2.5 and cardiac-actin. In addition, RT-PCR, Luciferase Report System Analysis and Western blot experiments show that FBXL5 is involved in Nkx2.5 regulation. The enhancement of FBXL5 expression in cells will enhance the activity of Nkx2.5 enhancers, and the expression of FBXL5 protein expression increases. In a word, through these studies, we believe that FoxP4 and its interacting genes, CatD, Tcap and FBXL5, have a regulatory role in the development of the heart, which may be achieved through the Nkx2.5 signaling pathway.
The nppa:GFP transgenic zebrafish is an enhancer entrapment vector containing the Tol2 transposon and GFP reporter protein of Japan, inserting GFP into the vicinity of the NPPA enhancer, making the GFP expression screened by the NPPA enhancer and specifically only in the heart expression. Using nppa: GFP transgenic zebrafish we not only studied FoxP4. At the same time, we also analyzed the cardiac function of nppa:GFP transgenic fish in morphology and physiology. Compared with wild zebrafish, no arrhythmia was found, heart rate and heartbeat cycle were not different, the maximum ventricular diastolic volume and minimum systolic volume were not different, and the cardiac output was not poor. Therefore, the physiological function of nppa:GFP transgenic fish is not different from that of wild type fish. It can be used in the study of new models of heart development and heart disease regulated by NPPA in vivo, and can also be used to detect and high throughput screening drugs for heart disease.
