Expression of biologically active kringle 5 domain of human plasminogen in Escherichia coli

The kringle 5 domain of plasminogen exhibits potent inhibitory effect on endothelial cell proliferation. It can also cause cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of endothelial cell specifically, and shows promise in anti-angiogenic therapy. It has been prepared via both proteolysis of native plasminogen and recombinant DNA methodologies. When previously expressed in Escherichia coli, recombinant kringle 5 mainly deposited as inactive, insoluble inclusion bodies and the refolding yield was low. In the present study, human kringle 5 was fusion-expressed with GST (gluthathione-S-transferase) under the control of T7 promoter in E. coli. The IPTG-induced GST-kringle 5 was about 20% of the total cellular proteins and, among the expressed GST-kringle 5 proteins, 80% was present in the supernatant. The GST-kringle 5 fusion protein exhibited some anti-proliferation activity towards bovine capillary endothelial cells. After GST-kringle 5 purification, subsequent enterokinase release of intact kringle 5 from the fusion protein and further purification by gluthathione-Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography, the recombinant kringle 5, with a yield of 10.5 mg/L culture, displayed apparent inhibition of endothelial cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner with ED50 about 20 nM.

Optimized gene synthesis, expression and purification of active salivary plasminogen activator alpha2 (DSPAalpha2) of Desmodus rotundus in Pichia pastoris

Vampire bat salivary plasminogen activators (DSPAs) are thrombolytic agents that are under clinical investigation for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. In this study, the synthetic active salivary plasminogen activator alpha2 (DSPAalpha2) gene optimized for the preferred codons of Pichia pastoris was assembled from 48 oligonucleotides, and cloned into the yeast expression vector pPIC9 with a strong enhancer from human cytomegalovirus (HCMV). This system achieved high expression of an active DSPAalpha2 in P. pastoris yeast GS115. Secreted active DSPAalpha2 recombinant protein was purified from broth supernatant by a simple one-step procedure on Sephadex chromatography and was confirmed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot analysis. ELISA showed that 2.5mg of recombinant protein could be obtained from 100-ml culture broth supernatant. The fibrinolytic activity of the recombinant DSPAalpha2 was 1.28 x 10(5)IU/mg.

Expression of glycosylated haloalkane dehalogenase LinB in Pichia pastoris

Heterologous expression of the bacterial enzyme haloalkane dehalogenase LinB from Sphingomonas paucimobilis UT26 in methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris is reported. The haloalkane dehalogenase gene linB was subcloned into the pPICZalphaA vector and integrated into the genome of P. pastoris. The recombinant LinB secreted from the yeast was purified to homogeneity and biochemically characterized. The deglycosylation experiment and mass spectrometry measurements showed that the recombinant LinB expressed in P. pastoris is glycosylated with a 2.8 kDa size of high mannose core. The specific activity of the glycosylated LinB was 15.6 +/- 3.7 micromol/min/mg of protein with 1,2-dibromoethane and 1.86 +/- 0.36 micromol/min/mg of protein with 1-chlorobutane. Activity and solution structure of the protein produced in P. pastoris is comparable with that of recombinant LinB expressed in Escherichia coli. The melting temperature determined by the circular dichroism (41.7+/-0.3 degrees C for LinB expressed in P. pastoris and 41.8 +/- 0.3 degrees C expressed in E. coli) and thermal stability measured by specific activity to 1-chlorobutane were also similar for two enzymes. Our results show that LinB can be extracellularly expressed in eukaryotic cell and glycosylation had no effect on activity, protein fold and thermal stability of LinB.

High level expression of kringle 5 fragment of plasminogen in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pichia</Emphasis><Emphasis Type="Italic">pastoris</Emphasis>

Angiogensis can be blocked by inhibitors such as endostatin and angiostatin. The kringle 5 fragment of plasminogen also has a potent inhibitory effect on endothelial cell proliferation and leads to the inhibition of angiogenesis. It has promise in anti-angiogenic therapy due to its small size and potent inhibitory effect. Preparation of kringle 5 has been achieved through the proteolysis of native plasminogen and recombinant DNA technology. Bacterially expressed recombinant kringle 5 is mainly insoluble and expressed at low level. The refolding yield is also low. To produce recombinant human kringle 5 in a large quantity, we have genetically modified a strain of Pichia pastoris. On methanol induction, this strain expressed and secreted biologically active, recombinant kringle 5. The expression level of the engineered strain in culture reached more than 300mgl^-1. Purification was easily achieved by precipitation, hydrophobic and DEAE ion exchange chromatography. The recovery of recombinant kringle 5 was about 50% after purification. Yeast-expressed kringle 5 has a higher activity in anti-endothelial proliferation than bacterially expressed kringle 5.Revisions requested 9 November 2004; Revisions received 2 December 2004

Glycosylation of prourokinase produced by Pichia pastoris impairs enzymatic activity but not secretion

Both glycosylated and nonglycosylated forms of recombinant human prourokinase were produced to the level of 20 mg/L by yeast Pichia pastoris in BMMY medium after 2 days of culture. The expressed pro-UK was 98% secreted into the culture medium and easily purified by carboxymethyl cellulose chromatography. More than 99% of pro-UK in the culture medium was found in single-chain form. This was contradictory to a previous finding which found that glycosylation of pro-UK by yeast inhibited its secretion. The absence of glycosylation at Asn302 of pro-UK has no measurable effect on its secretion from the yeast cells. However, the nonglycosylated pro-UK was much less stable in the culture medium, probably due to proteolysis. Nonglycosylated pro-UK from yeast had a clot lysing activity comparable to that of Escherichia coli-derived or mammalian cell-derived recombinant pro-UK. By contrast, the glycosylated yeast pro-UK was less activatable by plasmin and had a lower enzymatic activity against plasminogen and a lower clot lysing activity than nonglycosylated pro-UK from yeast, while their amidolytic activity against S2444 was equivalent. It was concluded that glycosylation of pro-UK by yeast P. pastoris interferes with the catalytic site but not secretion of this protein.     

Comparison of the baculovirus-insect cell and Pichia pastoris heterologous systems for the expression of the human tumor suppressor protein RNASET2

We report the expression of recombinant RNASET2, the only human member of the Rh/T2/S family of acid ribonucleases, in the yeast Pichia pastoris and the baculovirus-insect cell heterologous systems. In both models, the yield of recombinant protein was comparable and ranged between 5 mg/L (for a catalytically impaired mutant version of RNASET2) and 30 mg/L for the wild-type protein. Thus, the produced protein version rather than the expression system used appears to influence protein yield after optimization of culture conditions. The recombinant protein was found to undergo heterogeneous glycosylation in both systems, particularly in P. pastoris. Most importantly, the wild-type protein purified from both systems was found to be catalytically competent. The expression of recombinant RNASET2 in both systems will allow the implementation of functional assays in vivo and in vitro to better define the antioncogenic properties of this member of the Rh/T2/S ribonuclease family.
