[Abstract]:BMPR2 based because of bone morphogenetic protein receptor type II (BMPR- II) encoding gene.BMPR- II belongs to TGF- beta receptor superfamily, are necessary for the conduction of BMP signal. In the embryonic development and mature individuals, BMP is involved in the regulation of various types of cells and tissue proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation, and chemotaxis. The process of angiogenesis, matrix production. In recent years, BMPR2 gene mutation induced pulmonary hypertension is a focus of research; in addition, due to the close relationship between the BMP pathway and tumor occurrence is also of concern. As a kind of multifunctional gene, its expression should be precisely controlled, thus revealing its expression regulation is of great significance to clarify its normal physiological function and abnormal pathological mechanism. In this study, we isolated the human BMPR2 gene 5 'flanking region, analyzes the structure, forecasting and looking to participate in the Important regions and components of gene expression regulation. Specific research and results are as follows:
1., based on bioinformatics prediction of transcriptional start site and cDNA 5 'end before RT-PCR walking, we successfully identified the transcription start site of human BMPR2 gene based on SMART RACE technology, which is at the upstream of translation initiation codon 1013nt.
2. of the human BMPR2 gene 5 '- extraordinary long preamble sequence (1013nt) by bioinformatics analysis, we found that the GC content reaches 62%, the prediction will form two level structure and serious influence the translation efficiency; in the region because of the lack of typical internal ribosome entry site (IRES), there may be no cap do not rely on the translation initiation; according to the theory of scanning the initiation of translation, there are probably in the region of 6 with moderate intensity of translation initiation ability of the upstream open reading frame (uORF) of the real open reading frame downstream translation has negative regulatory role.
3., using human peripheral blood genomic DNA as template and PCR amplification, we constructed a recombinant plasmid pGL3-Basic-5.5K containing human BMPR2 gene 5 'flanking nearly 5.5Kb sequence, which was used for sequencing and subsequent experiments.
4. pGL3-Basic-5.5K as a template, constructed deletion mutants of 6 different fragment length, respectively, in Hela cells, lung cancer cells A549 and SMMC7721 cells with Promega dual luciferase report system to detect the promoter activity of experiment. The results showed that -1569bp ~ -1229bp (Note: the translation start codon ATG in A as a potential transcription factor +1) sequence dense binding sites may contain important transcription activation elements, the promoter region of BMPR2 gene is the key; in addition -2333bp ~ -1570bp and -5106bp ~ --2875bp section containing transcription strong negative regulatory elements also suggest that the -2874bp ~ -2334bp section contains a strong positive transcriptional regulatory elements.
The key to start the sequence of 5. spans of human BMPR2 gene -5106bp ~ DNA sequence and the experimental section of the --2875bp obtained by PCR into chimeric fragment overlap extension, cloned into pGL3-Basic vector to construct the recombinant plasmid for luciferase report experiments confirmed that -5106bp ~ --2875bp section does have a strong inhibition of transcription, this inhibition may with 4 Alu elements.
There are several potential binding sites of SP1 near 6. BMPR2 gene transcription initiation site, suggesting that the gene may be affected by the activation of SP1, we constructed SP1 eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1 (+) -SPI, and BMPR2 gene promoter luciferase gene reporter plasmid co transfection of Hela cells, the results show that SP1 can activate the human BMPR2 gene promoter in a dose-dependent manner. The mutation of BMPR2 promoter sequence in which 2 potential SP1 binding sites significantly reduced promoter activity, and EMSA experiments show that the ability to combine these 2 loci were specific for SP1 and SP1, the reaction components.
7. human BMPR2 gene transcription start site at +50nt downstream of a GGC trinucleotide repeat, examined 150 normal DNA samples, found three genotypes: GGC12 / GGC12 (148 cases), GGC12 / GGC11 (1 cases) and GGC12 / GGC8 (1 cases). The frequencies of GGC12 allele were 99.33%, GGC11, GGC8 frequency was 0.33%.
8. constructs containing human BMPR2 gene core promoter sequences and GGC12 5 'preamble sequence repeat sequence in site directed mutagenesis of the mutant luciferase reporter gene expression assay showed that the transcriptional activity of the mutant decreased significantly, suggesting that the expression of the repeat sequence of the human BMPR2 gene has a positive regulatory effect.
9. BMPR2 trinucleotide repeats of GGC gene and the flanking sequence in a CpG Island, methylation specific PCR (MSP) detection of human embryonic lung fibroblast HELF hypermethylation of the CpG island and the island of CpG lung cancer cell line PGCL3 in unmethylated display; and fluorescence quantitative PCR showed that the transcription level of BMPR2 gene in HELF cells in the lower than PGCL3, suggesting that CpG island methylation may be involved in the transcriptional regulation of BMPR2 gene.
