蛋白质二硫键异构酶相关蛋白A的表达及性质的研究

克隆了Aspergillus niger T21中的蛋白质二硫键异构酶相关蛋白A（PRPA）基因,并将它插入pET23b表达载体。在E. coli中表达时，PRPA占菌体总蛋白的34%。经过超声破细胞、硫酸铵分级沉淀和离子交换层析获得了纯度大于90%的重组蛋白。PRPA有二硫键异构酶活性。在PRPA存在下，变性和还原的溶菌酶复性率和复性速度降低，电泳结果表明溶菌酶聚集增多。荧光结果表明PRPA表面有较多的疏水基团。

Expression and Characterization of Protein Disulfide Isomerase-related Protein A

Protein disulfide isomerase related protein A (PRPA) was highly expressed (about 34%) in Escherichia coli by inserting the whole PRPA cDNA into the vector pET23b. After expression, the purified protein was acquired through ammonium fractional precipitation and Bio Rex 70 chromatography. PRPA shows low disulfide isomerase activity (only about 1/250 of that of hPDI), decreases the reactivation yield of denatured and reduced lysozyme either in redox and non redox Hepes buffer or redox PBS buffer and facilitates the aggregation of denatured and reduced lysozyme. Fluorescence spectra of PRPA indicate that PRPA has more hydrophobic groups at surface than that of hPDI, and which can be used to explain why PRPA has anti chaperone acti vity during the refolding of denatured and reduced lysozyme.
