摘要
The study of the prion protein (PrP) physiological functions or its specific role in transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE) requires new tools, particularly those able to induce PrP overexpression in a large range of cells, in vivo as well as in vitro. Here we describe the construction of two recombinant adenoviruses encoding the human PrP either with a valine at position 129 (AdTRVal) or a methionine (AdTRMet). Both genes were put under the control of the tetracycline-responsive promoter, allowing tight regulation of PrP expression. AdTRVal and AdTRMet induced high expression of the human PrP in CHO-KI cells and in organotypic brain slices in culture. The proteins expressed from these viruses exhibited a glycosylphosphatidyl inositol (GPI) anchor, proper glycosylation and sensitivity to proteinase K digestion. AdTRVal and AdTRMet will allow future studies on the human PrP and on the role of the codon 129 polyphormism in human TSE. (C) 2001 Academic Press.
