2. Introduction Zinc Finger Protein( 鋅指蛋白 ) ‧ There are large amounts of zinc finger proteins in cells. ‧ In mammalian, most of them act as transcription factor, and are not only related to the control of genes but also the development of cells.

15. Cell line:293 (2x10 5 /3.5cm plate)

16. Discussion 1.The point mutation of 6th, 8th, 9th, nucleotides of ZDBS is really had more influence than others.The result is corresponding to the experiment in vitro. 2.Different cells have different reaction with the mutant of ZDBS. 3. Why the result is opposite to our prediction is still a topic to research.

17. Z40A Protein Domain Mutation Changing the nucleotides of Z40A DNA to product the wrong amino acid, therefore the structure of zinc finger is destroyed. We want to research which mutation of domains of Z40A is more important for Z40A to bind the DNA

20. Cell line:293 (2x10 5 /3.5cm plate)

21. Discussion From the result, we can think that he zinc fingers of Z40A from seventh to twelfth are all very important for it to bind DNA.

22. 1. Why we choose the more complex way (blunt end of vector and of insert) to clone the mutants of ZDBS? Q&A
