[Method] The purified PCR products of PrP27-30 were digested and ligated to the pCI-neo vector to yield pCI-neo-PrP27-30 that was used as an expression vector. Then CHO-K1 cells were transfected by pCI-neo-PrP27-30, and stable expression clone cells were screened by methotrexate (MTX) at a concentration of 0.1 and 1.0 umol/L. The transient expression was detected by indirect immunofluorescence assay and western blot. [ Result] After drug selection with MTX, the expression of PrP27-30 gene was detected in CHO-K1 cells. [Conclusion] Recombinant protein PrP27-30 expressed in CHO-K1 cells has better immunoreactivity and can be used to study secondary structure and regulation mechanism of pathological isoform of prion protein (prpC).展开更多

Bovine serum proteins were extracted to be used as stablizer to prepare calcium phosphate nanoparticles . 167.7 nm and 87.7 nm particles were respectively prepared by using bovine serum protein fractions at the concentration of 0. 5 mg/mL and 1.0 mg/mL. As the polysaccharide stabilized hydroxyapatite nanoparticles, the protein-stablized nanoparticles also inhibited the proliferation rate of Bel-7402 cells. It suggested that proteins could be applied to prepare calcium phosphate nanoparticles and it also has the anticaneer effect.展开更多

Poly N-isopropyl acrylamide (PNIPA) and poly N-n-propyl-acrylamide (PNNPA) temperature sensitive hydrogels were chosen as the nonionic temperature sensitive hydrogels for concentration of very dilute aqueous protein solution. The separation properties of PNIPA and PNNPA hydr0gels with different network dimensions were studied and the modification of the hydrogels was surveyed in order to decrease their surface adsorption of protein molecules. The experimental results of the concentration of BSA (Bovin serum albumin) dilute aqueous solution by hydroxylpropyl methacrylate (HPMA) copolymerized PNIPA hydrogel were given. The value and the limitation of concentration of dilute aqueous protein solution by this method was evaluated.展开更多

The protein adsorption behavior was examined via cyclic voltammetry, secondary ions mass spectroscopy(SIMS), and angle-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(ARXPS). The corrosion property was analyzed by the open circuit potential(OCP), potentiodynamic polarization(PD),and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) examinations. The antibacterial test was conducted according to the GB/T 21510 China Standard. It was observed that the surface charge density(QA DS) was directly proportional to the amount of the adsorbed BSA protein, signifying that the protein adsorption was accompanied by the charge transfer, pointing to chemisorptions phenomena. BSA amino groups and other organic species were observed in the surface analysis examinations. It was shown that the formation of barrier complexes between the TiO_(2) oxide-layer and PBS solution resulted in decreasing the release of Cu-ions, which consequently reduced the antibacterial activity. On the other hand, these barrier complexes improved the corrosion resistance by increasing the charge transfer resistance and double-layer capacitance of the Ti-3 Cu alloy.展开更多
