摘要
A novel strategy to enhance the expression efficiency of cloned target gene in Escherichia coli was developed. The whole expression cartridge , consisting of promoter. SD sequence , target gene and transcription terminator, was tandem repeatedly engineered into a expression plasmid. Consequently, the copy number of specific gene was increased substantially, leading to the improvement of expression efficiency.Using this approach, a recombinant plasmid , designed as PLYD, was constructed and transformated into the Escherichia coli strain DH5α. Upon induction , the desired protein was synthesized in a considerable level and accumulated up to 63% of the total cell proteins. The present study revealed that tandem repeating of expression cartridge provided a convenient means to improve expression level efficiently.
