Abstract:

The aim of this study was to explore the effect of MAT2B on porcine intramuscular preadipocyte differentiation by constructing overexpression vector in vitro mediated by adenovirus. A pair of exclusive primers was designed according to the GenBank sequence information of MAT2B gene, and MAT2B was amplified by PCR. The obtained PCR products were inserted into a shuttle vector pAdTrack-CMV, then the gene was identified by sequencing. The results showed that shuttle vector (pAdTrack-CMV) and backbone vector (pAdEasy-1) were in homologous recombination, and the adenovirus recombinant vector (pAd-MAT2B) was constructed successfully. Then the recombinant adenovirus DNA was digested by the Pac I, the pAd-MAT2B adenovirus was produced, and we used it to infect the porcine preadipocytes. The expression level of mRNA and protein of MAT2B significantly increased. Oil Red O staining assay showed that overexpression of MAT2B promoted lipid accumulation in intramuscular preadipocyte. Moreover, the expression of adipogenic gene PPARγ and aP2 mRNA were significantly promoted when infected by Ad-MAT2B. The results suggest that MAT2B is overexpressed in expression vector in vitro mediated by adenovirus, and MAT2B play a positive role during porcine intramuscular preadipocyte differentiation.
