Regulated high efficiency expression of human interferon-alpha in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

The 5' control region of the yeast phosphoglycerate kinase gene (PGK) was fused to the coding sequence of a human interferon-alpha. This PGK-interferon fusion was then introduced into yeast on a high copy number 2mu-based plasmid vector. Strains containing this plasmid produced a PGK-interferon-alpha fusion protein as 1-2% of cell protein and the expression of interferon activity was regulated by the availability of a fermentable carbon source. The system is capable of making as much as 15 mg of human interferon-alpha per litre of batch culture.

Construction, characterization and expression of full length cDNA clone of sheep YAP1 gene

RT-PCR, 5′RACE, 3′RACE were used to clone sheep full length cDNA sequence of YAP1 (Yes-associated protein 1), eukaryotic expression plasmid and a mutant that cannot be phosphorylated at Ser42 was successfully constructed. The amino acid sequence analysis revealed that sheep YAP1 gene encoded water-soluble protein and its relative molecular weight and isoelectric point was 44,079.0 Da and 4.91, respectively. Sub-cellular localization of YAP1 was in the nucleus, it is hydrophilic non-transmembrane and non-secreted protein. YAP1 protein contained 33 phosphorylation sites, seven glycosylation sites and two WW domains. The secondary structure of YAP1 was mainly composed of random coil, while the tertiary structure of domain area showed a forniciform helix structure. YAP1 gene was expressed in different tissues, the highest expression was in kidney and the lowest was in hypothalamus. The CDS of sheep YAP1was amplified by RT-PCR from healthy sheep longissimus dorsi muscle, cloned into pMD19-T simple vector by T/A ligation. YAP1 coding region was further sub-cloned into pEGFP-C1 vector by T4 Ligase to construct a eukaryotic expression plasmid and then make the eukaryotic expression vector as the template to construct the phosphorylation site mutant. PCR, restriction enzyme and sequencing were used to confirm the recombinant plasmid. The sheep full-length YAP1 cDNA sequence is 1712 in length encoding 403 amino acids. It was confirmed that the sheep YAP1 CDS was correctly inserted into eukaryotic expression vector and serine had been mutated to alanine by PCR, restriction digestion and sequencing. The result showed that the recombinant plasmid pEGFP-C1-YAP1 and pEGFP-C1-YAP1 S42A was constructed correctly, this will help for further studies on the YAP1 protein expression and its biological activities.     

Overproduction of biologically-active human nerve growth factor in Escherichia coli.

A gene coding for human nerve growth factor (hNGF) was constructed for expression under control of the trp promoter in E. coli. The plasmid pTRSNGF contained a synthetic hNGF gene fused, in frame, to the region encoding the beta-lactamase signal peptide. The plasmid pTRLNGF contained the same coding sequence as hNGF attached downstream from the N-terminal fragment of the trp L gene. E. coli cells harboring pTRSNGF produced an amount of hNGF constituting 4% of the total cellular protein, and removed the beta-lactamase signal peptide. The mature protein hNGF was biologically active in the PC12h bioassay for neurite outgrowth. This biological activity was comparable to that of authentic mouse NGF. E. coli cells harboring pTRLNGF produced an amount of fusion protein hNGF constituting 25% of the total cellular protein. Although the fusion protein hNGF formed inclusion bodies in cells, dissolved fusion protein hNGF was active in neurite outgrowth from PC12h cells.     

Developmental stage-related expression and identification of murine erythroid differentiation-denucleation factor (MEDDF)

Using MEDDF cDNA fragment in plasmid pBS-SK-MEDDF as template the coding sequence was cloned into pGEM-T-Easy plasmid by PCR method to delete non-coding sequence. After DNA sequencing it was confirmed that the clone sequence was correct, the coding region then was inserted into the vector pET-30a betweenBamH I andHind III to construct eukaryotic expression vector. It was found that the specific protein was up to 40% of total bactorial proteins in certain high-expressionE. coli. High titer of anti-sera was detected by inoculating New Zealand rabbits with purified MEDDF protein as an antigen. By using immunocytochemical staining it was demonstrated that the expression of MEDDF was exhibited in a developmental stage-specific manner, suggesting that MEDDF may play a certain role in the initiation of murine erythroid terminal differentiation and nuclear condensation. As for the expression of MEDDF appearing in granulocytes and megakaryocyter in murine bone marrow, it may indicate that there is an original relationship between the proteins and differentiation of murine myelogenous lineage.     

Complete nucleotide sequence and structural organization of pPB1, a small Lactobacillus plantarum cryptic plasmid that originated by modular exchange

A small cryptic plasmid designated pPB1 was isolated from Lactobacillus plantarum BIFI-38 and its complete 2899 bp nucleotide sequence was determined. Sequence analysis revealed four putative open reading frames. Based on sequence analysis two modules could be identified. First, the replication module consisted of a sequence coding for a replication protein (RepB) and its corresponding target site, and two putative repressor proteins (RepA and RepC). Sequence analysis indicated the possible synthesis of an antisense RNA that might regulate RepB production. A putative lagging-strand initiation site was also found, suggesting that pPB1 replicates via a rolling circle mechanism. The second module of pPB1 consisted of a sequence coding for a putative mobilization protein and its corresponding oriT site. Since the nucleotide sequence of the replication module showed 94.5% identity to the similar region on the Leuconostoc lactis plasmid pCI411, and the nucleotide sequence of the mobilization module had 97.5% identity to L. plantarum plasmid pLB4, it is concluded that pPB1 originated by modular exchange between two such plasmids by homologous recombination. Putative recombination sites where crossover might have taken place were also identified.
