Methods: The p35 gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR), cloned to pQE31, and a positive clone was screened. PCR-mediated mutagenesis was used to change the two "TGA" triplets to "TGG" triplets within the p35 gene. Production of the recombinant protein was induced by the addition of IPTG to the E.coli culture. rP35 was purified with a Ni-NTA Spin Kit and rP35 purification was analyzed by Western blot. Results: About 1Kb PCR amplification was cloned into pQE31. The two "TGA" triplets within the p35 gene were successfully changed to "TGG" triplets. The pQE31/p35 vector expressed a protein with a calculated molecular mass of 37.4kDa in E.coli. Western blot indicated the 37.4kDa protein was rP35 . Conclusion: PQE31/p35, a prokaryotic expression vector containing p35 gene, was successfully constructed and expressed in E.coli.展开更多
