目的:构建昆明小鼠十二指肠肠激酶轻链(mEKL)大肠杆菌高效表达系统,并建立复性与纯化方法。方法:RT—PCR法扩增mEKL全长cDNA,以融合表达载体pET32a克隆于大肠杆菌BL21(DE3)和Origami(DE3),采用阴离子交换层析纯化复性表达产物,经牛肠激酶消化回收mEKL。结果:扩增得到723bp的mEKL全长cDNA,经序列分析发现,昆明鼠来源的mEKL cDNA序列的Ser^131密码子中存在1个同义点突变。mEKL在2种宿主菌中的表达产物均为包涵体蛋白,经稀释复性、阴离子交换层析纯化和肠激酶切割可得高纯度mEKL。结论:成功构建昆明鼠源mEKL高效表达工程菌,并建立相应的纯化方法。
Objective:To construct recombinant Escherichia bacteria over - expressing the light chain of entcrokinase from Kunming mice ( mEKL ) and develop a purification procedure of the expression product. Method : The full - length cDNA of mEKL was amplified by RT - PCR, and cloned into E. coli BL21 (DE3) and Origami (DE3) in pET32a for fusion -expressing with thioredoxin(Trx)under the control of promoter T7. The expression product was purified by anion exchange chromatography (AEC)after refolding, from which mEKL was recov- ered by enterokinase digestion. Result: A 723 bp cDNA coding mEKL was from Kunming mice' s duodenum,in which a synonymous point mutation was found in the codon of Ser^131. The fusion gene of Trx - mEKL was over - expressed as inclusion proteins in both host cells. The refolded fusion protein was purified by AEC to an over 80% purity,from which mEKL was recovered by enterokinase digestion and can be further purified by Ni - chelating affinity chromatography. Conclusion:An over - expression system for the recombinant mEKL was established,Which laid a good foundation for the over- production of enterokinase.
