Problems solved by technology

[0005] The yeast two-hybrid system widely used in protein interaction often takes several days to complete the substrate colorimetry, and the reporter gene used to detect the expression of the yeast two-hybrid system needs to be connected with the target gene and then transferred into the yeast strain to activate the reporter gene However, the influence of the reporter gene on the yeast two-hybrid system cannot be ruled out. Some researchers have constructed an in vitro detection system based on the principle of the yeast two-hybrid GAL4 factor to evaluate the binding ability of organic tin and other pollutants to RXR. Research on aggregates is blank

Abstract

The invention discloses a transcriptional activation system for detecting a RXR / PPAR dimer interferent, and a detection method. The detection method comprises the following steps of: connecting a Chlamys farreri retinoic acid receptor gene RXRa to a carrier pGBT9, and constructing a yeast expression plasmid pGBT9-RXRa; connecting a Chlamys farreri peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor PPAR[alpha] to a carrier pGADT7 to construct a yeast expression plasmid pGADT7-PPAR[alpha]; and jointly converting the pGBT9-RXRa and the pGADT7-PPAR[alpha] into a Y187 yeast cell to construct a RXR / PPAR dimer transcriptional activation system, and carrying out screening, culturing and positive clone. The saccharomyces cerevisiae Y187 is taken as a host bacterial strain, construction of a reporter plasmid is simplified, the sensitivity and the accuracy of the detection method are improved, and a false positive generation probability is lowered. The transcriptional activation system greatly improves specificity for authenticating or detecting a chemical capable of interfering with the internal secretion interference activity of the RXR / PPAR dimer.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a transcriptional activation system and method for detecting RXR / PPAR dimer interferers, specifically obtaining a yeast transcriptional activation system comprising RXR and PPAR by constructing a recombinant plasmid, and using this system to detect potential endocrine disruptors in the environment method. Background technique [0002] As a ligand-dependent transcription factor, retinoic acid X receptor (RXR) can not only form a homodimer with itself, but also interact with other nuclear receptors such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR), vitamin The formate receptor (RAR) and thyroid hormone receptor (TR) form heterodimers and are therefore key players in the signaling pathway of the nuclear receptor superfamily. The transcription mechanism of RXR is the same as that of classical nuclear receptors, that is, the RXR dimer binds to the response element in the promoter region of the target gene, and regul...
