    文章编号:1007-8096(2000)01-0058-03 人类肿瘤的发生是一个多因素、多步骤的过程,涉及到多种癌基因的激活和抑癌基因的失活。自1986年首次分离Rb后,已发现10余个抑癌基因,它们以缺失、突变等方式在人类肿瘤的形成中发挥作用。1996年初Kern报道了DPC4(deletedinpancreaticcancerlocus4)—一种新的抑癌基因,现将该基因的研究进展作一综述。

    1DPC4基因的发现和结构

    人类胰腺癌的遗传学改变包括Ki-ras突变、p53突变和p16突变或纯合性缺失,等位基因型研究显示90%的胰腺癌在18q上有杂合性缺失(LOH)。事实上,Bert小组在该区域已克隆了DCC(deletedincoloncancer)基因,但是18q上发生缺失的区域相当大,包含几千个基因,故除DCC外可能还有另外的抑癌基因[1]。Hahn构建了18q缺失图谱和一个近2Mb的物理图谱,并对胰腺癌纯合性缺失的集中部位进行嵌板分析,发现三个重要位点,即DPC1/2(13q12)、p16(DPC3、9p21)和DPC4(18q21.1)。再利用c917-46、外显子扩增、Cdna文库筛选、5’-RACE和BLAST等技术,最终鉴定出一种含有51bp的开放阅读框架表达序列,该序列与人胚脑Cdna文库的杂交鉴定出19个克隆,它们为以前从未报道的DPC4基因。30%的胰腺癌有DPC4纯合性缺失,22%有突变,提示DPC4作为一种候补肿瘤抑制基因,与胰腺癌的发生有极密切的关系[2]。

    DPC4基因具有2680bp的转录单位,编码552个氨基酸序列,有11个外显子,10个内含子,其核苷酸序列保存在GenBank的U44378中。(全文见PDF)
