[Method] The At2G34450 gene was cloned into yeast expression vector pPIC9K containing AOXl promoter and the sequences of secreting α-signal peptides. Recombinant plasmid was linearized by Sal l and transformed into P. pastoris GSl15 competent cells by electroporation. Positive integrated clones were screened out, and the At2G34450 protein was expressed under the induction of methanol. [Result] The At2G34450 protein was expressed in yeast medium through methanol induction. SDS-PAGE results showed that recombination product was At2G34450 protein. [Conclusion] At2G34450 protein was successfully expressed in the P. pastoris system for the first time, which paves a direct path to further research on the functions of HMGB family members.展开更多

In this study, the EV71 poly-protein (EV71-P1 protein) gene was processed and cloned into the eukaryotic expression vector pPIC9k and then expressed in Pichia pastoris strain GSll5. The EV71 P1 protein with a molecular weight of 100 kD was produced and secreted into the medium. The soluble EV71 P1 protein was purified by column chromatography with a recovery efficiency of 70%. The result of the immunological analysis showed that the EV71 P1 protein had excellent immunogenicity and could stimulate the production of EV71-VP1 IgG antibody in injected rabbits. We suggest that EV71-P1 protein is an ideal candidate for an EV71 vaccine to prevent EV71 infection.展开更多
The gene of human thymosin alpha 1(hT(1)was synthesised according to favorite codons of Pichia pastoris by PCR. N-terminal 28 amino acid residues of 40S ribosomal protein (RP), S24E that is N-acetylserine were replace...The gene of human thymosin alpha 1(hT(1)was synthesised according to favorite codons of Pichia pastoris by PCR. N-terminal 28 amino acid residues of 40S ribosomal protein (RP), S24E that is N-acetylserine were replaced by hT(1 for the constitution of hT(1-RP fusion gene in order to express acetyllated thymosin α 1. And also,the Asn-Gly bond was designed to faciliate isolation of the target protein.The fusion gene was cloned into the expression vector, pPIC/9K. The constructs were transformed into HIS4 mutant strain GS115 by electroporation. Both SDS-PAGE analysis and Western blot analysis indicated that the fusion protein was expressed successfully.展开更多
