摘要
目的:克隆人DC-SIGN全长编码区基因,获得其胞外段的原核表达产物。方法:采用RT-PCR方法,从健康产妇胎盘中克隆DC-SIGN全长cDNA,扩增其胞外段基因并构建pET41a-sDC-SIGN重组表达质粒,在大肠杆菌BL21(DE3)中表达,以SDS-PAGE和Western blot鉴定表达产物。结果:从健康产妇胎盘总RNA中,扩增获得约1300bp的DNA片段,克隆至pGM-T载体获得重组质粒pGM-DC-SIGN。从pGM-DC-SIGN扩增DC-SIGN的胞外段基因,构建重组表达质粒pET-41a-sDC-SIGN;纯化表达产物sDC-SIGN-GST,鉴定其相对分子质量(Mr)为66000,Western blot证明其可与抗DC-SIGN抗体特异性结合。结论:成功克隆DC-SIGN全长编码区基因,并在大肠杆菌中成功表达其胞外段融合蛋白sDC-SIGN-GST,为进一步研究DC-SIGN的功能奠定了基础。
AIM: To obtain the intact encoding gene of human DC-SIGN and express its extracellular region in E. coIL METHODS: The intact cDNA encoding human DC-SIGN was amplified from total RNA of placenta of healthy parturient by RT-PCR, and its extracellular region was inserted into prokaryotic expression vector pET-41a. The recombinant plasmid pET-41a-sDC-SIGN was transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3). The expressed product was purified by GST affinity chromatography and identified by SDSPAGE and Western blot. RESULTS: The DNA fragment of about 1 300 bp was amplified by RT-PCR, and cloned into pGM-T vector to obtain the recombinant plasmid pGM-DC- SIGN. The DNA fragment encoding the extracellular region of human DC-SIGN was amplified from pGM-DC-SIGN plasmid and the recombinant expression vector pET-41a-sDC- SIGN was constructed. The component of Mr 66 000 in the purified recombinant product was found to be recognized by anti-DC-SIGN antibody. CONCLUSION: The cDNA of human DC-SIGN is cloned and the protein of its extracellular region is obtained successfully, which lay the foundation for further research on functions of DC-SIGN.
