This study was undertaken to produce recombinant FaOLP2 and to identify its antifungal activity. [ Method] The ORF of FaOLP2 ( accession number DQ325524) was cloned into pET22b vector to con- stroct the pET22b-FaOLP2 plasmid. The recombinant mature FaOLP2 was expressed in E. coli Rosetta-gami B (DE3) by inducing with I nunol/L IPTG and found exclusively in insoluble inclusion bodies. As FaOLP2 requires the correct formation of eight disulfide bonds, but there were no obvious effect to correctly form these by expression at different temperatures and high osmotic pressure ( supplemented Betaineand and D-Sorbitol), we used an in vitro method to refold E. coli expressed FaOLP2 by gradually elution using reduced:oxidized gluthatione redox buffer, followed by 8 mol/L urea solubilized His6-tagged mature FaOLP2 protein, which was affinity-purified by an immobilized-metal (Ni2+ ) affinity chromatography (IMAC) column. [ Result] This method generated biologically active conformations of the recombinant mature FaOLP2 that displayed antifungal activity against Ustilaginoides virens, a plant pathogenic fungus, which causes rice false smut. [ Conclusion] This study laid the foundation for further biotechnological application of the novel protein.展开更多

On potato sucrose agar medium, the purified protein obviously inhibited the growth of the important edible fungus pathogens Trichoderma viride and Chrysosporium luteum at 6 2 μg and 12 5 μg per disc respectively. The molecular weight was about 14 kD by SDS PAGE and HPLC. The isoelectric point was pH7 5. Analysis of the composition of amino acids showed that this protein was rich in Asx, but lacking in Met.展开更多
