摘要

Objective To establish a prokaryotic expression system of interstitial lung disease associated autoantigen human bactericidal/permeability-increasing fold-containing B1 (BPIFB1), providing tools for the study on its function in immune responese. Methods The coding region of BPIFB1 gene was amplified with specific primers from recombinant pGEM-C20ORF114 plasmid and cloned into the pET28a-MBP-His and pGEX-5X-1 vectors. The recombinant pET-BPIFB1-MBP-His and pGEX-BPIFB1-GST plasmids were transfected into Top10 cells. The positive clones were selected and sequenced. The correct clones of pET-BPIFB1-MBP-His and pGEX-BPIFB1-GST were transfected into prokaryotic expression strain Rosetta (DE3) and induced by Isopropyl β-D-Thiogalactoside (IPTG). The expression of recombinant BPIFB1 fusion protein was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting, and purified by urea modified and renaturation and affinity chromatography of nickel NTA-resin. Results The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) produced specific product with the molecular weight equivalent to that of BPIFB1. The recombinant pET-BPIFB1-MBP-His and pGEX-BPIFB1-GST plasmids were cloned by double restriction enzyme digestion and ligation and confirmed by sequencing. The SDS-PAGE result showed that both BPIFB1-MBP and BPIFB1-GST fusion proteins were mainly expressed in the form of inclusion bodies. The Western blotting result revealed that the recombinant BPIFB1-MBP-His protein could be recognized by Anti-6 ×His antibody. The purified soluble BPIFB1-MBP fusion protein was obtained by urea denaturation, affinity chromatography of nickel NTA-resin and then renaturation after purification. Conclusion The BPIFB1 prokaryotic expression system is established by construct recombinant plasmid pET-BPIFB1-MBP-His, and an approach of renaturation after nickel resin affinity purification in denatured condition.%目的 建立肺间质病相关自身抗原人杀菌/渗透增强蛋白B1(BPIFB1)的原核表达体系,为该蛋白的免疫学研究提供工具.方法 以pGEM-C20ORF114重组质粒为模板,采用特异引物扩增BPIFB1基因编码区,克隆入pET28a-MBP-His和pGEX-5X-1载体中.重组的pET-BPIFB1-MBP-His和pGEX-BPIFB1-GST质粒转染Top10感受态细胞;鉴定阳性克隆,并选取测序正确的质粒转化Rosetta(DE3)蛋白表达菌株;异丙基硫化半乳糖苷(IPTG)诱导表达,通过十二烷基硫酸钠-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳(SDS-PAGE)及蛋白质印迹法检测重组融合蛋白的表达,并用尿素变性复性和镍树脂亲和层析柱纯化目的蛋白.结果 PCR成功扩增出特异条带,符合BPIFB1基因大小;经双酶切克隆至表达载体,测序证实重组质粒pET-BPIFB1-MBP-His和pGEX-BPIFB1-GST构建成功.SDS-PAGE检测BPIFB1-MBP与BPIFB-GST融合蛋白均主要以包涵体形式表达.蛋白质印迹法检测,重组BPIFB1-MBP-His蛋白能被抗6×His抗体识别.经尿素变性,镍柱亲和层析纯化,然后蛋白复性,获得纯化的可溶性BPIFB1-MBP融合蛋白.结论 通过构建重组质粒pET-BPIFB1-MBP-His,并采用变性条件下先镍柱亲和纯化后再复性的方法,成功建立BPIFB1蛋白原核表达体系.
