摘要: 细胞周期蛋白C(cyclin C)与细胞周期依赖性蛋白激酶cdk8结合,通过磷酸化RNA 聚合酶 II 和 TFIIH调控转录.在脊椎动物胚胎发育过程中有关细胞周期蛋白C合子型转录激活机制尚知甚少.本研究克隆了斑马鱼细胞周期蛋白C基因,并用Northern杂交和整体原位杂交技术检测其在胚胎发育过程中的表达状态.结果显示,斑马鱼细胞周期蛋白C高度保守,与人细胞周期蛋白C有88%的蛋白序列同源;斑马鱼细胞周期蛋白C在母型期开始表达,其表达伴随中囊胚转换时期的合子型转录激活以及整个胚胎发育过程.

Abstract: Cyclin C binds the cyclin-dependent kinase 8 (cdk8) , which regulates transcription by phosphorylating RNA polymerase II and TFIIH. The effect of cyclin C on zygotic transcription activation during vertebrate embryonic development is poorly understood.This paper described the clone and developmental expression pattern of zebrafish cyclin C cDNA. It was highly conserved, sharing 88% amino acid sequence identity with human cyclin C, thereby indicating an important role for the protein. Northern blotting and whole mount in situ hybridisation revealed expression of zebrafish cyclin C maternally, following the onset of zygotic transcription at the mid-blastula transition (MBT) and throughout embryonic development.
