Expression and purification of functional recombinant human pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) secreted by the yeast Pichia pastoris

Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) combines neurotrophic, neuroprotective, anti-angiogenic, anti-tumor and neural stem cell self-renewal properties in a single molecule, making this protein a valuable potential therapeutic agent. We herein analyzed the expression of human recombinant full-length PEDF, and its N- and C-terminal regions (amino acids 1-243 and 195-418, respectively) in three mammalian cell lines (HEK-293T, COS-1, and 26HCMsv), and in the yeast Pichia pastoris. The highest production of recombinant PEDF was achieved in P. pastoris which secreted approximately 30 microg of full-length rPEDF, and 47 microg of C-terminal/ml of culture medium. Full-length rPEDF was purified by one-step Ni-chelating high-performance liquid chromatography, recovering almost 70% of secreted rPEDF with a purity of 98.6%. The C-terminal region of PEDF was isolated by low-pressure liquid chromatography, recovering around 4% of the recombinant molecule with a purity of 98%. The N-terminal region of PEDF was not secreted by any expression system assayed. The two isolated recombinant PEDF polypeptides inhibited in vitro endothelial cell migration, and full-length rPEDF also increased cerebellar granule cell survival, thus demonstrating their biological activity. These polypeptides can be used to investigate the therapeutic role of PEDF in cancer, neurodegenerative and ocular diseases, and stem cell-based therapies.

Expression, refolding, and characterization of a novel recombinant dual human stem cell factor

A novel recombinant dual human stem cell factor (rdhSCF) gene which consisted of a full-length hSCF(1-165aa) cDNA and a truncated hSCF (1-145aa) cDNA, linked by a peptide (GGGGSGGGGSGG) coding region, was constructed and cloned into Escherichia coli expression vector pET-22b.

After renaturation, the purity of the yielded rdhSCF was up to 90%. Cell proliferation assay showed that the specific activity of the rdhSCF was 2.86x10(5) U/mg, about 1.66 times as high as that of monomer rhSCF expressed in E. coli.

Expression,purification, and characterization of recombinant lumbrokinase PI239 in Escherichia coli

Lumbrokinase (LK) is an important fibrinolytic enzyme derived from earthworms. It has been found that LK is composed of a group of isoenzymes. To construct and express the mature peptide of LK PI239 in Escherichia coli, we amplified and optimized the gene of LK which was then cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pET-22b(?). The recombinant LK (rLK) protein was expressed as inclusion bodies and we have developed a purification process of rLK from these inclusion bodies. A step-down urea concentration strategy was applied to the rLK renaturation process. The purified and renatured rLK apparently ameliorated the conditions of the model thrombosis rats used, and may be developed into a therapeutic agent for thrombotic-associated diseases.     

Expression and refolding of recombinant human alpha-tocopherol transfer protein capable of specific alpha-tocopherol binding

alpha-Tocopherol transfer protein (alpha-TTP) is a cytosolic protein found predominantly in mammalian liver that is proposed to be responsible for the stereoselective uptake of alpha-tocopherol from the diet. Although recombinant alpha-TTP has been reported previously, little detail has been provided about the yields and competency of the recovered protein at binding tocopherols and other ligands. In this work, we report the successful expression and refolding of a recombinant human alpha-TTP. Ligation-independent cloning generated a construct in pET-30 encoding an alpha-TTP fusion protein (pET-30/ttp) containing a six-histidine tag and an S-tag, each cleavable by a separate protease upon expression in Escherichia coli. Overexpression of the protein led to the formation of inclusion bodies that were solubilized in 8 M urea and purified by metal chelate affinity chromatography. Another construct in pET-28b (pET-28b/ttp) provided a soluble protein product after expression that contained a 40-amino-acid N-terminal extension, which can be reduced to 21 amino acids by cleavage with thrombin. The success of different refolding experiments was assessed using a Lipidex gel-based tocopherol binding assay. The best recovery of refolded recombinant alpha-TTP fusion capable of binding alpha-tocopherol was provided by matrix-assisted refolding in the presence of 0.5 M arginine. Cleavage of the fusion protein with Factor Xa successfully generated the full-length wild-type protein with no additional N-terminal amino acids. The resulting purification scheme provides recombinant alpha-TTP in good yield and purity for investigation of both its structure and its binding affinities for different ligands including natural and synthetic tocols.

Recombinant human pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF): characterization of PEDF overexpressed and secreted by eukaryotic cells.

Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is a serpin found in the interphotoreceptor matrix of the eye, which, although not a proteinase inhibitor, possesses a number of important biological properties, including promotion of neurite outgrowth and differential expression in quiescent versus senescent states of certain cell types. The low amounts present in the eye, together with the impracticality of using the eye as a source for isolation of the human protein, make it important to establish a system for overexpression of the recombinant protein for biochemical and biological studies. We describe here the expression and secretion of full-length glycosylated human recombinant PEDF at high levels (> 20 micrograms/ mL) into the growth medium of baby hamster kidney cells and characterization of the purified rPEDF by circular dichroism and fluorescence spectroscopies and neurite outgrowth assay. By these assays, the recombinant protein behaves as expected for a correctly folded full-length human PEDF. The availability of milligram amounts of PEDF has permitted quantitation of its heparin binding properties and of the effect of reactive center cleavage on the stability of PEDF towards thermal and guanidine hydrochloride denaturation.     

Recombinant Human Ribosomal Protein S16: Expression,Purification, Refolding,and Structural Stability

The cDNA of human ribosomal protein S16 was cloned into the expression vector pET-15b. Large-scale production of the recombinant protein was carried out in E. coli cells and highly purified protein was isolated. A method for refolding the protein from inclusion bodies was optimized. The secondary structure content of the refolded protein was analyzed by CD spectroscopy. It was found that 21 +/- 4% of the amino acid sequence of the protein forms alpha-helices and 24 +/- 3% is in beta-strands. The protein structure stability was studied at various pH values and urea concentrations. The protein is quickly denatured at pH above 8.0, whereas increasing of urea concentration causes slow unfolding of the protein.     

Human ribosomal protein S13: cloning, expression, refolding, and structural stability

The cDNA of human ribosomal protein S13 was cloned into the expression vector pET-15b. Large-scale production of the recombinant protein was carried out in Escherichia coli cells. Protein accumulated in the form of inclusion bodies was isolated, purified, and refolded by dialysis. The recombinant protein was immunologically reactive, interacting with antiserum against native rpS13. The secondary structure content of the refolded protein was analyzed by means of CD spectroscopy. It was found that 43+/-5% of amino acids sequence of the protein form alpha-helices and 11+/-3% are placed in beta-strands that coincides with theoretical predictions. The beta-strands seem to be located in the extension regions of the rpS13 and do not have homologuous regions in the structure of rpS15 from Thermus thermophilus, which is a prokaryotic homolog of rpS13. The protein structure is stable at a pH range from 4.0 to 8.0 and at low concentrations of urea (up to 3 M).
