Abstract: 【Objective】The aim of this paper was to clone the stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1(SCD1) gene from Xuhuai goat, and analyze it’s sub-cellular localization through enhanced green fluorescent (EGFP) fusion protein. Study the gene expression in heterologous animals, explore the possibility of preparing dissimilar transgenic animals and verify whether the foreign gene can stably inherited. 【Method】cDNA was cloned by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), it’s biological information characteristics was analyzed by online software, and fusion expression vector named pEGFP-C1-SCD1 was constructed successfully. Then NIH-3T3 cells were transfected with pEGFP-C1-SCD1 through lipofectamine TMLTX&PLUS(LTX). At 48 h post-transfection, the transfected cells were observed under fluorescence inverted microscope. Then the mRNA expression level of SCD1 was detected by RT-PCR. The transgenic mice was produced by testicular injection, and the target gene expression in the F1 and F2 generations of individual was detected at DNA and protein levels. 【Result】 The results showed that the coding sequence (CDS) length of Xuhuai goat SCD1 gene was 1 074 bp, encoding 357 amino acids with GenBank accession number (JX854036). The SCD1 cDNA coding sequence was compared with the corresponding region of Human, Rattus norvegicus, Mus, Ovis aries, Bos taurus, Sus scrofa, respectively, the similarity was 86%, 83%, 82%, 98%, 95%, and 90%, respectively, and amino acid sequence homology was 84%, 79%, 79%, 96%, 92%, and 95%, respectively. pEGFP-SCD1 was successfully constructed. The RT-PCR results showed the SCD1 mRNA expressed successfully in vitro. The SCD1 protein was localized in the cytoplasm which was in line with the result of online prediction. The gene can also be expressed in mice transiently and persistencely after intravenous and testicular injection and the gene can be genetically stable. 【Conclusion】The SCD1 gene cDNA of Xuhuai goat was cloned successfully and in the single-cell level can express in the cytoplasm, also can express in mice.
