Abstract:Objective: To construct an eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1(+)/endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein complex subunit 6(EMC6) and to transfect it into human liver L-02 cell line. Methods: The sequence of EMC6 gene published in Pubmed was analyzed and suitable restriction enzyme cutting site was designed. Human EMC6 gene was amplified by PCR with the cDNA of L-02 cells. The template and the fragment was combined with plasmid pcDNA3.1(+) by gene recombination technology. After constructing an eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1(+)/EMC6, the accuracy of construction was verified by colony PCR and sequencing. The recombinant expression vector pcDNA3.1(+)/EMC6 was transfected into L-02 cells by lipofectamine. The mRNA and protein expression of EMC6 in L-02 cells was respectively detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Results: After identification by colony PCR and sequencing, the eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1(+)/EMC6 was successfully constructed. The RT-PCR and Western blotting results showed the overexpression of EMC6 in L-02 cells. Conclusion: The eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1(+)/EMC6 was successfully constructed, and can be highly expressed in L-02 cells.
