This study aimed to clone the full-length cDNA of the porcine ADAR2gene and explore its expression pattern in different tissues of pigs.Rapid-amplification of cDNA ends(RACE)was used to clone the full-length cDNA sequence of the ADAR2gene in Large White pigs and the sequence was analyzed by bioinformatics.Real-time PCR was used to detect the ADAR2mRNA expression in the heart,liver,lung,kidney,spleen,brain,small intestine,muscle and backfat of 35-day-old pigs.Porcine ADAR2cDNA sequence of 6 305bp was cloned,which contained 12exons and encoded 704amino acids.The nucleic acid and amino acid seque...
