52、a method routinely used in molecular biology to check for the presence of a DNA sequence in a DNA sample. Southern blotting combines agarose gel electrophoresis for size separation of DNA with methods to transfer the size-separated DNA to a filter membrane for probe hybridization. The method is name
53、d after its inventor, the British biologist Edwin Southern. Other blotting methods (northern blot , western blot) that employ similar principles, but using RNA or protein, have later been named in reference to Southern's name. As the technique was eponymously named, Southern blot should be capit
54、alized, whereas northern and western blots should not. 将待检测的DNA分子用/不用限制性内切酶消化后,通过琼脂糖凝胶电泳进行分离,继而将其变性并按其在凝胶中的位置转移到硝酸纤维素薄膜或尼龙膜上,固定后再与同位素或其它标记物标记的DNA或RNA探针进行反应。如果待检物中含有与探针互补的序列,则二者通过碱基互补的原理进行结合,游离探针洗涤后用自显影或其它合适的技术进行检测,从而显示出待检的片段及其相对大小。Southern blot 是分析DNA的杂交技术,Northern blot是分析RNA的,而Western blot是分析蛋白质的 S
55、outhern 和Northerin原理基本相同,都是利用DNA或RNA的复性过程,但过程上也有区别,主要是 Southern是先电泳后变性,而Northern是先变性后电泳; Southern是碱变性,而Northern采用甲醛、乙二醛、二甲基亚砜等变性,因为采用碱变性会导致RNA水解 RNA的特点§ T U§ 核糖§ 单链§ 核酶 RNA的转录合成从化学角度来讲类似于DNA的复制,多核苷酸链的合成都是以53的方向,在3-OH末端与加入的核苷酸磷酸二酯键,但是由于复制和转录的目的不同,转录又具有其特点: 对于一个基因组来说,转录只发生在一部分基因,而且
56、每个基因的转录都受到相对独立的控制 转录是不对称的 转录时不需要引物,而且RNA链的合成是连续的 模板识别中真核与原核的不同真核生物RNA聚合酶不能直接识别基因的启动子区,需要转录调控因子按特定顺序结合于启动子上,RNA聚合酶才能与之结合形成前起始复合物。转录作用是RNA聚合酶催化的DNA指导的RNA合成作用。反应是以DNA为模板,以四种三磷酸核苷(NTP)即ATP、GTP、CTP及UTP为原料,各种核苷酸之间的3、5磷酸二酯键相连进行的聚合反应。合成反应的方向为53。反应体系中还有Mg2+、Mn2+等参与,反应中不需要引物参与。碱基互补原则为A-U、G-C,在RNA中U替代T与A配对。 RN
57、A聚合酶缺乏35外切酶活性,所以没有校正功能。 RNA聚合酶大肠杆菌RNA聚合酶由五个亚基组成,为二个,一个,一个和一个因子,2四个亚基组成核心酶,加上因子后成为全酶。因子与核心酶的结合不紧密,容易脱落。RNA聚合酶亚基和亚基是酶的活性中心。 亚基可能与核心酶的组装及启动子识别有关。因子负责模板链的选择和识别DNA模板上转录的起始部位。 l 因子可以提高RNA聚合酶对启动子区的亲和力,降低RNA聚合酶对非专一性位点的亲和力l 不同的因子识别不同的启动子,调控不同基因转录的起始l 因子的释放表明转录起始的终止,酶-DNA-RNA形成稳定复合物,转录进入延伸期原核生物RNA聚合酶的几个特点:聚合速度比DNA复制的聚合反应速率要慢;缺乏35外切酶活性,无校对功能,RNA合成的错误率比DNA复制高很多;原核生物RNA聚合酶的活性可以被利福霉素及利福平所抑制,这是由于它们可以和RNA聚合酶的亚基相结合,而影响到酶的作用。启动子(promoter, P)是位
