摘要
目的:构建小鼠成纤维细胞激活蛋白α(FAPα)二肽基肽酶催化核心序列(FAPαc)的高效原核表达载体,进行该序列的原核表达、纯化和复性,为下一步高效抗体制作和以FAPα为靶标的抗肿瘤疫苗研发提供实验基础。方法:用PCR技术,从质粒pSecTag2/Hy-groB-FAPα中扩增出编码FAPα二肽基肽酶催化核心区域的基因片段,与原核表达载体pET28α(+)连接,在BL21(DE3)工程菌中实现重组蛋白His6-FAPαc的表达,并进行纯化和复性。结果:成功构建了小鼠来源的FAPα二肽基肽酶催化核心区域的原核表达质粒,通过对转化该质粒后的感受态细菌进行菌液PCR鉴定以及对该质粒进行BamHI和XhoI双酶切鉴定,鉴定结果与预期结果完全一致;实现了对该质粒编码的融合蛋白His6-FAPαc的表达,表达后的融合蛋白主要以包涵体的形式存在,表达产量占菌体总蛋白>70%;纯化了该融合蛋白,纯化后的蛋白纯度通过灰度分析>99%;对该融合蛋白进行了复性,复性后该融合蛋白由不溶的包涵体状态变为可溶的水溶状态。结论:成功表达、纯化和复性了FAPα二肽酶催化核心区域FAPαc,为深入开展FAPα的研究奠定基础。
OBJECTIVE: To construct a prokaryotic expression plasmid of the main catalytic domain of dipeptidyl peptidase of murine fibroblast activation protein a (FAPαc) and obtain the target fusion protein in order to provide basis for production of antibodies and anti-tumor vaccine targeting FAPα. METHODS: The gene fragment encoding catalytic domain of dipeptidyl peptidase of FAPα was amplified from plasmid pSecTag2/HygroB-FAPα by PCR and cloned into pET28α(+) vector, the recombinant protein His6-FAPαc was expressed in BL21(DE3) engineering bacteria, then the target fusion protein was purified and renatured. RESULTS:The prokaryotic expression plasmid in the catalytic domain of dipeptidyl peptidase of FAPα was successfully constructed, and the results identified by PCR and digested by BamH Ⅰ and Xho Ⅰ corresponded exactly well as expected. The fusion protein His6-FAPαc was expressed and mainly existed in the form of inclusion body. His6- FAPαc took more than 70% of the bacterial protein. The fusion protein was purified, the purity reached more than 990% through the gray-scale analysis. The fusion protein was renatured, and after being renatured, the fusion protein came into a state of the water soluble from the insoluble inclusion bodies. CONCLUSION: The catalytic domain of dipeptidy Ⅰ peptidase of FAPα is expressed, purified and renatured successfully, establishing a foundation of further research of FAPα.
