摘要
将编码人单核细胞趋化蛋白-1(MCP-1)的基因亚克隆到大肠杆菌表达载体pEX31A中,在大肠杆菌中表达出MS2/MCP-1融合蛋0白,该表达产物约占菌体总蛋白的15%左右,Westernblot检测表明,表达产物可与MCP-1抗体特异反应。采用琼脂糖平板法进行活性测定表明,表达产物具有明显的单核细胞趋化活性,说明N端融合一段细菌蛋白对MCP-1有无趋化活性可能没有影响。
A gene fragment encoding human monocyte chemoattratctant protein-1 (MCP-1) was subcloned into pEX31A. MS2/MCP-1 fusion protein was expressed in E. coli and accounted for about 15% of total cell proteins. Western blot analysis indicated that the expression product reacted specifically with anti-MCP-1 antibodies. Detection of activity by the method of agarose plates showed that the expression product had obvious monocyte chemoattractant activity, suggesting that bacterial protein at N-terminus may not affect the chemoattractant activity of MCP-1.
