G418是一種氨基糖苷類抗生素 ,在分子遺傳試驗(yàn)中,是穩(wěn)定轉(zhuǎn)染最常用的抗性篩選試劑。它通過抑制轉(zhuǎn)座子Tn601,Tn5 的基因,干擾核糖體功能而阻斷蛋白質(zhì)合成,對(duì)原核和真核等細(xì)胞產(chǎn)生毒素 ,包括細(xì)菌、酵母、植物和哺乳動(dòng)物細(xì)胞 ,也包括原生動(dòng)物和蠕蟲。當(dāng)neo基因被整合進(jìn)真核細(xì)胞DNA后 ,則能啟動(dòng)neo基因編碼的序列轉(zhuǎn)錄為mRNA ,從而獲得抗性產(chǎn)物氨基糖苷磷酸轉(zhuǎn)移酶的高效表達(dá) ,使細(xì)胞獲得抗性而能在含有G418的選擇性培養(yǎng)基中生長(zhǎng)。G418的這一選擇特性 ,已在基因轉(zhuǎn)移、基因敲除、抗性篩選以及轉(zhuǎn)基因動(dòng)物等方面得以廣泛應(yīng)用。
