人胰岛素A、B链基因的合成、克隆及其在大肠杆菌中的表达

根据人胰岛素A、B链的多肽顺序,设计并用一种简便快速的多肽基因合成了A、B链基因。合成的A 链和B 链基因分别克隆到pWR590质粒上,构建了表达型质粒pWR590-HIA和pWR 590-HIB,它们能够表达由β-半乳糖苷酶N-端约590个氨基酸残基与A 链或B 链组成的融合蛋白(两者之间由Met 连接)。A 链或B 链融合蛋白经BrCN 降解,磺化及分离纯化等步骤,得到了磺化A、B 链。磺化A、B链体外重组得到人胰岛素。     

基因工程人胰岛素原和胰岛素的分离纯化及性质研究

携带pWR 590-BCA4质粒的大肠杆菌经发酵培养,提取出人胰岛素原融合蛋白。该融合蛋白经BrCN降解,氧化磺化及QAE-Sepha-dex A-25和Sephadex G-50分离所得到的磺化胰岛素原,经折叠和分离得到了人胰岛素原(HPI)。HPI 再经酶切转化为人胰岛索(HI)和C-肽,HI 的得率为5 m8/L,并获得了HI 的晶体。HPI 和HI 的氨基酸组成、N-端顺序和C-末端分析均与预期值相符。HI 的RIA 活性为猪胰岛素的99%,整体活性为26～27U/mg。     

基因工程人胰岛素原和胰岛素的分离纯化及性质研究

E. coli DH 5 alpha cells harboring a plasmid pWR 590-BCA 4 for fused human proinsulin production were cultured. The fused human proinsulin was isolated from the fermented cells and then subjected it to cleavage with BrCN. The cleaved product was then converted to crude proinsulin-S-sulfonate using oxidative sulfitolysis. The isolation of human proinsulin-S-sulfonate was accomplished by ion exchange chromatography on QAE-sephadex A-25, followed by gel filtration on sephadex G-50. The purified human proinsulin-S-sulfonate was folded using a disulfide interchange method. The folding mixture was then chromatographed on sephadex G-50 and purified proinsulin was obtained. The proinsulin was then converted to human insulin and C-peptide by a combination cleavage with trypsin and carboxypeptidase B. The total yield of human insulin was about 5 mg/L The Zinc insulin crystals were obtained with amorphous human insulin using citrate method. The amino acid composition N-terminal sequences as well as C-terminal amino acid residues are in agreement with expected results. The hypoglycemic activity of purified human insulin is 26-27 U/mg, as judged by mouse convulsion assay, and the RIA activity is about 99% of that of porcine insulin.
