摘要
目的了解泛素特异性蛋白酶18(USP18)对乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)复制的影响及其潜在机制。方法 1)USP18和Pol质粒构建:采用常规基因克隆方法,将人USP18编码序列及HBV多聚酶(Pol)编码序列分别构建到pcDNA3.1-3tag真核细胞表达载体内。2)研究Pol对USP18的影响:高表达转染Pol质粒至Hep AD38细胞内,抽提细胞内总RNA,逆转录成c DNA,用实时荧光定量PCR(qRT-PCR)检测Pol对USP18的影响。3)研究USP18对HBV的影响:高表达转染USP18质粒至Hep AD38细胞内,抽提细胞内总RNA和总DNA,qRT-PCR检测USP18对HBV复制的影响。4)研究Pol与USP18之间的相互作用:将Pol质粒按一定比例转染到铺有293T细胞的10cm培养皿中,采用免疫共沉淀的方法检测Pol与USP18之间是否存在相互作用。结果成功构建USP18和Pol表达质粒,并在HepAD38细胞中高表达;过表达Pol蛋白促进USP18表达;过表达USP18刺激HBV复制;Pol与USP18存在相互作用。结论初步证明USP18可能通过与Pol相互作用促进HBV复制。
Objective To investigate the impact of Ubiquitin Specific Protease 18(USP18) on the replication of Hepatitis B virus(HBV) and its potential mechanisms. Methods USP18 and HBV Polymerase(Pol) plasmids were constructed via conventional methodsbased on the pc DNA3. 1-3 tag eukaryotic cell expression vector. The effect of Pol over-expression on USP18 in HepAD38 cells was evaluated byReal-time Quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR).Similarly,the effect of USP18 over-expression on HBV was also evaluatedby q PCR. The interaction between Pol and USP18 was confirmed by Co-Immunoprecipitation(CO-IP).Results The USP18 or Pol plasmids were constructed successfully and further confirmed to exist in the HepAD38 cells by Western Blot(WB). The Over-expression of Pol promoted USP18 expression while theover-expression of USP18 promoted the replication of HBV. Certain interactions between Pol and USP18 were mapped out by CO-IP.Conclusion USP18 stimulates the replication of HBV,which may be achieved via the interaction between Pol and USP18. However,thepotential mechanismof this stimulation process remains to be further explored.
