摘要: 试验旨在研究过氧化物酶体增殖物激活受体γ辅助激活因子1α(PPARGC1A)在金华猪和大白猪中的遗传特征和表达情况,探究PPARGC1A基因在mRNA水平和蛋白质水平的表达模式。以金华猪和大白猪为试验动物,分别提取背脂组织的总RNA,根据GenBank中公布的猪PPARGC1A基因序列(登录号:NM_213963.2)设计编码区和实时定量PCR引物,以猪GAPDH基因和β-actin蛋白作为内参,应用多种生物信息学方法对PPARGC1A基因编码蛋白进行功能分析,并通过实时荧光定量PCR及Western blotting检测其在金华猪背脂中的表达水平。结果表明,金华猪PPARGC1A基因CDS区全长2 361 bp,编码786个氨基酸,该蛋白分子大小90 336.01 u,其中丝氨酸(ser)所占比例最高(13.7%),色氨酸(Trp)所占比例最低(0.8%)。同源性比对结果显示,金华猪PPARGC1A基因与山羊、牛和绵羊的同源性较高,分别为95.0%、94.9%和94.9%,在物种进化中具有较强的保守性;金华猪PPARGC1A蛋白不稳定指数为74.88,属于不稳定亲水蛋白,无跨膜结构,其二级结构由α-螺旋、延伸链、β-转角及无规则卷曲4种结构组成,所占比例分别为26.59%、5.73%、5.73%和61.96%,PPARGC1A蛋白同源建模经折叠、弯曲等一系列复杂的过程获得三级结构模型;实时荧光定量PCR试验和Western blotting试验结果一致,显示PPARGC1A基因在背脂较厚的金华猪中表达量显著低于瘦肉型的大白猪(P<0.05)。本研究为探明PPARGC1A基因对猪脂肪沉积的分子生物学功能提供了理论基础。

Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic characteristics and expression patterns of PPARGC1A gene in Jinhua pigs and Yorkshire pigs.The Jinhua pigs and Yorkshire pigs were used as samples to extract total RNA from the dorsal lipid tissue,and the coding region and real-time quantitative PCR primers were designed according to the sequence of porcine PPARGC1A gene in GenBank (accession No.:NM_213963.2).The porcine GAPDH gene and β-actin protein were used as internal parameters,and the PPARGC1A gene-encoded protein was applied by various bioinformatics methods.Functional analysis was performed and its expression level in dorsal lipid tissue of Jinhua pigs was detected by Real-time quantitative PCR and Western blotting assay.The results showed that the full length of PPARGC1A gene CDS region was 2 361 bp and encoded 786 amino acids.The protein had a molecular size of 90 336.01 u,with serine (Ser) accounting for the highest proportion (13.7%) and tryptophan (Trp) accounting for the lowest proportion (0.8%).Homology alignment results showed that PPARGC1A gene in Jinhua pigs had high homology with goats,cattle and sheep,which were 95.0%,94.9% and 94.9%,respectively,and was highly conserved in species evolution.The PPARGC1A protein of the instability index in Jinhua pigs was 74.88,belonging to unstable hydrophilic protein,and no transmembrane structure.Its secondary structure consists of alpha helix,extended chain,beta turn and random coil,and the proportion of them were 26.59%,5.73%,5.73% and 61.96%,respectively.The PPARGC1A protein homology modeling obtained a series of complex processes such as folding and bending to obtain a three-level structural model.The results of the Real-time quantitative PCR and Western-blotting were consistent,indicating that the expression of PPARGC1A gene in Jinhua pigs with dorsal lipid tissue was significantly lower than that of lean pigs (P<0.05).This study provides a theoretical basis for the discovery of the molecular biological function of PPARGC1A gene in pig fat deposition.
