[Method] RT-PCR and RACE （rapid amplification of cDNA ends） method was used for gene cloning; basic properties of the gene were analyzed using bioinformatics method; prokaryotic expression vector PGS21a-DsSP was constructed and transformed into E. coil BL21; the fusion protein was purified and detected by GST-SefinoseTM Kit and Western Blot, respectively. [Result] A starch phos-phorylase gene （GenBank accession No. KF061044） named DsSP was successfully isolated from D. salina. Basic properties, subcellular localization, secondary structure and tertiary structure of the protein were analyzed and predicted. The fusion protein was found in the supernatant and inclusion bodies. The supernatant protein was successfully purified. Western Blot analysis showed that the fusion protein was successfully expressed in E. coil BL21. [Conclusion] This study laid experimental foun- dation for further clarifying the function and mechanism of DsSP.展开更多
