Abstract
Objective: To clone all-length coding cDNA of specific transcription factor T-bet of murine T helper 1 type cells.Methods: Total RNA as well as mRNA were isolated from splenic cells of Balb/c mice and the entire coding cDNA sequence of T-bet was amplified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).The T-bet cDNA were cloned into the pGEM-T vector with a T base at 3' terminal.The identification was made by means of restriction enzyme analysis,PCR and DNA sequencing.Results: The murine entire coding cDNA of 1592bp have been amplified from spleen cells.There was 99.8% homogenous nucleotide sequence as compared with standard sequence of T-bet from Genbank.Conclusion: We successfully cloned the cDNA of murine specific transcription factor T-bet.It will be the basis for studying immune interference of transferring gene.
