摘要
目的预测靶向果蝇Kr-h1(Krǜppel homolog1)基因的miRNA,并对其生物学功能及相关生物信息学进行分析,为进一步研究miRNA通过调控Kr-h1的表达而参与保幼激素(juvenile hormone,JH)对果蝇变态发育的调控奠定基础。方法通过microT-CDS、Targetscan和miRanda在线预测网站,对靶向Kr-h1基因的miRNA进行预测,对预测得到的多个miRNA按靶向结合可能性的大小进行汇总,3个网站均能预测到的miRNA为交集miRNA,对交集miRNA的靶基因及Kr-h1基因进行生物信息学功能分析。结果 microT-CDS、Targetscan和miRanda分别预测到30、7和11个靶向Kr-h1的miRNA,其中交集miRNA有4个,为miR-8、miR-277、miR-927和miR-964。功能分析发现,交集miRNA的靶基因主要参与细胞过程、生物过程和代谢过程,Kr-h1基因主要与昆虫生长发育及生殖相关。结论潜在靶向Kr-h1的miRNA涉及多个生物学过程,与昆虫的生长发育密切相关。
Objective To predict the miRNA targeting the Kr-h1(Krǜppel homolog1) gene of Drosophila,analyze the biological function and the relevant bioinformatics of the gene and provide a theoretical basis for study on the role of miRNA in metamorphosis of Drosophila melanogaster. Methods The miRNA targeting Kr-h1 gene was predicted by using microT-CDS,Targetscan and miRanda online prediction websites,and the possibilities of target binding of the obtained miRNAs were analyzed. The bioinformatics of target and Kr-h1 genes of intersecting miRNAs,i.e. the miRNAs predicted by all the three websites,were analyzed. Results A total of 30,7 and 11 miRNAs targeting Kr-h1 genes were obtained by prediction using microT-CDS,Targetscan and miRanda websites respectively,of which miR-8,miR-277,miR-927 and miR-964 were intersecting miRNAs. Bioinformatics analysis showed that the target genes of intersecting miRNAs mainly involved in the cellular,biological and metabolic processes,while Kr-h1 gene was mainly associated with the growth,development and reproduction of insects. Conclusion The miRNAs potentially targeting Kr-hl involved in various biological processes and were closely associated with the growth and development of insects.
