In previously study we isolated several fish matrix attachment regions (MARs) capable of replicating the plasmid by itself. In this study we construct a fish expression vector pBaEGFP(+) containing mud loach ${\beta}$-actin promoter EGFP as reporter gene and SV40 signal. To analyze the effects of the fish expression vector respectively. The fish ARS containing constructs pBaEGFP(+)-ARSs were transfected cells with pBaEGFP(+)-ARS101 and pBaEGFP(+)-ARS223 reduced 10 days to 25 days and then was constant to 30 days after transfection while that of the control vector without ARS element was basal level. The intensity of both constructs showed about 30fold of the intensity compared with the control vector on 30days after transfection individually .E. coli back-transformation analysis shows that pBaEGFP(+)-ARS223 and pBaEGFP(+)-ARS905 maintain in episomal state at least 30 days after transfection. The result indicates that both may be able to replicate the vector in BF-2 cell. Therefore the matrix-attached ARSs enhancing expression of the reporter gene might be useful as a component o the expression vector for transgenic studies.

랩틴은 지방세포의 비만유전자에서 분비되는 포식인자로써 음식섭취, 에너지대사, 체중, 번식생리 및 신경호르몬 분비를 조절하는 역할을 한다. 본 연구는 antisense 비만유전자를 발현하는 형질전환 생쥐를 생산하기 위하여 실시하였다. 먼저 랩틴을 분비하는 지방세포에서 RNA 를 추출한 후 역전사 PCR을 실시하여 303 bp의 anti I과 635 bp의 anti II cDNA 들을 합성하였다. 이러한 cDNA 들을 지방세포 특이적 발현 프로모터인 aP2 프로모터와 SV40 poly(A) 사이에 역방향으로 결합하여 미세주입용 유전자를 구축하였다. 생쥐의 수정란전핵에 antisense 비만유전자를 미세 주입하여 14 마리의 형질전환 생쥐를 생산하였으며, anti I 을 지닌 4 마리의 형질전환 생쥐와 anti II를 지닌 5마리의 형질전환 생쥐계통을 확립하였다. 그리고 형질전환 생쥐의 지방세포를 추출하여 RT -PCR을 실시한 결과 antisense 비만유전자 mRNA발현을 확인하였다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 생산된 형질전환생쥐는 생체 랩틴저하에 의해 비만을 일으키는 질환모텔동물로써의 사용가능성을 나타내었다.

The human homolog of position specific element of mouse Hoxa-7 was studied using transgene. It contains a 1.1 kb human DNA (HCR)- a homolog to the intergenic region between Hoxa-7 and -9, which directs the position specific expression of Hoxa-7-, tk promoter, LacZ (${\beta}$-galactosidase) gene as a reporter, and polyadenylation signal of SV40 large T antigen. It was injected into the mice embryos, and the resulting transgenic embryos were analysed through PCR as well as genomic Southern blotting with placenta DNA. Out of 20 embryos analysed, two were transgenic. Among them, one transgenic embryo expressed transgene when stained with X-gal. The expression pattern was in analogy to that of the mouse Hoxa-7, showing spatially restricted expression pattern, Since the expression of ${\beta}$-galactosidase is regulated by the upstream human HCR sequence, it implies that the HCR is the plausible position specific regulatory element of human.
