Construction of LAPTM4B promoter-luciferase reporter recombinants
Objective:LAPTM4B is a novel gene which is over expressed in HCC.To evaluate LAPTM4B gene promoter on gene transcription
we construct luciferase reporter plasmid pGL3-LAPTM4B-Luc.Methods:The LAPTM4B cDNA was used as a template in the polymerase chain reaction to amplify its upstream regions from the translation initiation codon.The PCR product was directly cloned into the luciferase reporter vector pGL3-Basic.Results:Restriction enzymes digestion and nucleotide sequencing confirmed that the recombinant plasmids were correct without base mutation and deletion.Conclusion:A known gene promoter sequence could be freely obtained from Genbank database.This is very useful for the gene promoter cloning and promoter vector constructing.The construction of LAPTM4B recombinant plasmid lay a foundation of the analysis of promoter activities.
