Abstract

To explore and isolate genes related to duck embryonic fibroblast cells (DEFs) post-infected with duck enteritis virus (DEV), a cDNA library was established using SMART (Switching Mechanism At 5′ end of the RNA Transcript) technique coupling with a homologous recombination method. The cells were harvested and total RNA was extracted at 48 h post infection. Then the mRNAs were purified and reverse transcribed to first-strand cDNAs using oligo (dT) primers (CDS III). Subsequently, long distance-PCR was performed, the double-stranded cDNAs were purified, and a transformation assay was carried out in that order. Eventually, a high qualitative library was successfully established according to an evaluation on quality. The transformation efficiency was about 2.33 × 106 transformants/4.34 μg pGADT7-Rec (>1.0 × 106). The cell density of the library was 1.75 × 109 cells/mL (>2×107 cells/mL). The titer of the primary cDNA library and amplified cDNA library was 6.75 × 105 and 2.33 × 107 CFU/mL respectively. The numbers for the primary cDNA library and amplified cDNA library were 1.01 × 107 and 1.14 × 109, respectively, and the recombinant rate was 97.14 %. The sequence results of 27 randomly picked independent clones revealed the insert ranged from 0.323 to 2.017 kb with an average insert size of 0.807 kb. Full-length transcripts of DEV-CHv LORF3, UL26 and UL35 genes were acquired through sequence similarity analysis from the non-redundant nucleic acid or protein database. Five polyA sites were identified in the DEV-CHv genome. Also, a new transcript of 668 bp was found between the IRS gene and US1 gene of the DEV-CHv genome. Thus, we concluded that the constructed cDNA library will be a useful tool in proteomic analysis of interactions between the DEV and host DEFs, and discovery of biomarkers studies on the mechanism of DEV and subsequently exploitation original vaccines and antiviral drugs to prevent or cure diseases.
