We report the construction of an inducible, high-copy plasmid for the expression of foreign proteins in Escherichia coli. This plasmid, pPB1, combines the trc promoter, beta-galactosidase translation start site, and polylinker of pKK233-2 with the origin of replication region of pUC19. Replacement of the origin of replication of pKK233-2 results in a threefold increase in plasmid copy number of pPB1 compared with pKK233-2. Subclones of the cDNA for rabbit muscle fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (E.C. 4.1.2.13) in the two expression plasmids exhibit a comparable difference in copy number. An increase in protein expression measured by SDS-PAGE and aldolase specific activities reflects the increased copy number. Specific activities of aldolases in bacterial extracts differ approximately sixfold between the two expression plasmids in E. coli JM83. Aldolase A can compose up to 40% of the total protein in E. coli JM83 when expressed in pPB1, from which more than 100 mg of purified enzyme can be obtained per liter culture. 相似文献

Summary In order to produce tuna (Thunnus thynnus) growth hormone (GH), expression plasmid (pUES13S) carrying tuna GH cDNA was constructed using a vector (pKK223-3), in which the replication origin was replaced with that of pUC19. The expression of the tuna GH cDNA was greatly affected by the distance between a Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence and the initiation codon (ATG) and was most efficient when the distance was adjusted to 13 base pairs (bp). The amount of tuna GH produced by Escherichia coli JM109 with pUES13S was more than 12.5% of the total cytosolic proteins and the product was immunologically identified to be tuna GH (mol. wt. 21 000) by Western blot analysis using tuna GH specific immunoglobulin G (IgG). Another plasmid (pUES13S-2) containing tandemly polymerized tuna GH cDNA was constructed, to improve the productivity of tuna GH. When E. coli JM109 carrying pUES13S-2 was incubated at 40°C, the amount of tuna GH produced reached about 20% of the total cytosolic proteins. 相似文献

The toluene dioxygenase genes from Pseudomonas putida NCIMB 11767 were isolated by PCR amplification from recombinant plasmid, p1/1. The genes were subcloned into pUC18 and pKK223-3 and expressed under the lac and tac promoters, respectively. In both cases, toluene cis-glycol was produced, with higher levels of product formation when the genes were expressed from the tac promoter. 相似文献

A high-expression plasmid, pKSGHE3-1, containing the salt-tolerant glutaminase (EC 3.5.1.2) from marine bacterium Micrococcus luteus K-3 was constructed. pKSGHE3-1 was made by inserting the DNA fragment (1.43 kb) containing the structural gene synthesized by polymerase chain reaction into the downstream region of the tac promoter of expression vector pKK223-3. The translational start codon was located 10 bases downstream of the Shine-Dalgarno sequence (AGGA) of pKK223-3. Escherichia coli JM109 transformed with pKSGHE3-1 exhibited more than 190-fold higher glutaminase activity than M. luteus K-3 under optimal culture conditions. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity through three column chromatography steps with a final yield of 17.1%. The recombinant enzyme showed the same enzymatic properties, including salt tolerance, as those of M. luteus K-3. This glutaminase expression system allows the production of sufficient quantities of glutaminase for basic structure-function studies including chemical modification and future X-ray crystallization analysis. 相似文献

Hyperexpression of a Bacillus thuringiensis delta-endotoxin-encoding gene in Escherichia coli: properties of the product 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Conditions for hyperexpression, in Escherichia coli, of the Bacillus thuringiensis var, kurstaki gene, cryIA9(c)73, encoding an insecticidal crystal protein, CryIA(c)73, were investigated by varying the promoter type, host cell, plasmid copy number, the second codon and number of terminators. The cryIA(c)73 gene was cloned into three E. coli expression vectors, pKK223-3 (Ptac promoter), pET-3a (P phi 10 promoter), and pUC19 (Ptac promoter). The level of cryIA(c)73 expression was measured by ELISA and compared to total cellular protein over growth periods of 24 and 48 h. Maximum expression levels of 284 microgram CryIA(C)73/ml (48% of cellular protein) were obtained in shake flasks with the Ptac promoter in E. coli JM103. Optimal conditions were found to be low-copy-number plasmid (pBR322 ori), 48 h of growth, in lon+ cells. A change of the gene's second codon to AAA can improve expression by two to three fold but is undetectable in the presence of a strong E. coli promoter. The cryIA(c)73 gene product, in E. coli, formed crystals with the same lattice structure as the native crystals formed in B. thuringiensis (as visualized by electron microscopy). Bioassay results (insect toxicity and specificity) of the crystal produced in E. coli were similar to that produced in B. thuringiensis. 相似文献

High-level expression of Bacillus subtilis tryptophanyl-tRNA synthetase in Escherichia coli 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The trpS gene encoding Bacillus subtilis tryptophanyl-tRNA synthetase (TrpRS) was prepared from the pUC8-derived pTSQ2 plasmid, mutagenized to introduce an EcoRI site immediately in front of the ATG start codon, and inserted into the pKK223-3 vector downstream to the tac promoter to yield the pKSW1 plasmid. Upon induction with isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside, Escherichia coli JM109[pKSW1] cells synthesized TrpRS to a level corresponding to 45% of total cell proteins. This high level of gene expression facilitates large scale preparation of TrpRS for physical studies, detection of in vivo degradation of mutant forms of TrpRS, and comparative assays of TrpRS by [3H]Trp-tRNA formation and by Trp-hydroxamate formation for the purpose of mutant characterization. Finally, since pKSW1 could complement the temperature-sensitive TrpRS mutation on E. coli trpS 10343 cells, defective mutations of the trpS gene on pKSW1 would be deductible on the basis of complementation testing. 相似文献

Studies on chemical synthesis of human cystatin A gene and its expression in Escherichia coli 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A synthetic gene containing the coding sequence for the human cysteine proteinase inhibitor, cystatin A, was obtained by enzymatic assembly of 20 oligodeoxyribonucleotides which had been chemically synthesized by the solid phase phosphoramidite method. It was cloned into an Escherichia coli plasmid. The expression plasmid for cystatin A was constructed by introducing the synthetic gene downstream of the tac promoter of an E. coli plasmid which is a derivative of pKK223-3 with high copy number. The gene was expressed in E. coli JM109 without IPTG-induction. The expression of cystatin A was detected by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the E. coli JM109 lysate, followed by immunoblotting using rabbit antiserum raised with human epidermal cystatin A and alkaline phosphatase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG. The result showed that the molecular weight of the expression product is identical with that of the authentic protein and the antigenic properties are also the same. Furthermore, the expression product purified with a CM-papain Sepharose affinity column and FPLC system with a Mono-Q column showed the same inhibitory activity for various cysteine proteinases. Also, purified recombinant cystatin A was found to have identical amino acid composition, NH2-terminal amino acid sequence, and peptide-map on reverse phase HPLC with those of the authentic inhibitor. 相似文献

1. The cDNA gene coding for the enzyme transglutiminase (EC 2.3.2.13) was cloned into the pUC18 oriented for expression from the lac promoter. 2. DNA sequencing of the 5' end showed that the cDNA was missing the sequence coding of the N-terminal 30 amino acids. 3. The truncated gene was then cloned into pKK233-2, and the recombinant product was produced in Escherichia coli. 4. A gene construct coding for the complete protein was generated by inserting an oligonucleotide for the missing 30 amino acids into the Eco RI site of the pUC18 clone. 5. A consensus Shine-Dalgarno sequence and translational start codon were positioned at the 5' end of the linker. 6. Immunoblotting experiments of E. coli JM105(pUC18-TGase) indicated the expression of the transglutaminase gene. 7. The cell lysate as well as the partially purified transglutaminase showed no detectable enzyme activity. 相似文献

Genes coding for ribosomal protein L12 from Methanococcus vannielii (Mva), Halobacterium halobium (Hha) and Sulfolobus solfataricus (Sso) have been subcloned in the polylinker region of pUC19. An efficient Shine-Dalgarno sequence has been attached to the 5' end of the genes, and two ochre stop codons have been created at their 3' ends, where necessary. In addition, mutants of the MvaL12 and HhaL12 genes were constructed, which coded for a cysteine residue at the C-terminus of the protein. The constructs were transferred together with the pUC19 polylinker as gene cartridges into different expression vectors. These constructed plasmids were transformed in the appropriate E coli hosts and tested for expression. Two systems were found to work efficiently for overexpression, namely the pKK223-3 vector featuring a tac promoter, and the pT7-5 vector featuring a T7-promoter. The over-expressed proteins were purified to homogeneity; their purity was investigated by one and two-dimensional gel systems, amino acid analysis and N-terminal protein sequencing for 10 steps or more. The amount of protein purified from E coli test cultures bearing the expression plasmids was always more than 2.5 mg/l of medium used. 相似文献

A 6.8-kilobase-pair (kbp) transposable element (Tn4556) was found in a neomycin-producing strain of Streptomyces fradiae. This element was first observed in two 30.3-kbp plasmids (pUC1123 and pUC1124) which arose when a thiostrepton resistance gene (1 kbp) was ligated with the BclI-2 fragment (22.5 kbp) that contains the origin of replication of phage SF1. The Tn4556 segment was deleted when these plasmids were transduced into another S. fradiae host with phage SF1. These deletion plasmids (pUC1210 and pUC1211) had copy numbers of less than 1 per chromosome and were unstable. In contrast, pUC1123 and pUC1124, with copy numbers of 12 to 15 per chromosome, respectively, were relatively stable. When pUC1210 and pUC1211 were reintroduced into S. fradiae by protoplast transformation, the Tn4556 element transposed again to the plasmids at numerous new locations in either of two orientations. A copy of Tn4556 was found in the S. fradiae chromosome by hybridization studies. It appears that Tn4556 originated from the chromosome, transposed into unstable pUC1210 and pUC1211, and made stable plasmids. A temperature-sensitive hybrid plasmid carrying a viomycin resistance derivative of Tn4556 (pMT660::Tn4556::vph) was constructed. When Streptomyces lividans UC8390 containing the hybrid plasmid was grown at 39 degrees C, Tn4556::vph (Tn4560) transposed to random positions in the host chromosome. 相似文献

Human alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH, tiff isozyme of class I) was expressed in Escherichia coli, purified to homogeneity, and characterized regarding N-terminal processing. The expression system was obtained by ligation of a cDNA fragment corresponding to the fl-subunit of human liver alcohol dehydrogenase into the vector pKK 223-3 containing the tac promoter. The enzyme, detected by Western-blot analysis and ethanol oxidizing activity, constituted up to 3 ~o of the total amount of protein. Recombinant ADH was separated from E. coli ADH by ion-exchange chromatography and the isolated enzyme was essentially pure as judged by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and sequence analysis. The N-terminal sequence was identical to that of the authentic fl-subunit except that the N-terminus was non-acetylated, indicating a correct removal of the initiator methionine, but lack of further processing. 相似文献

CDNA clones for human kallikrein have been identified in a cDNA library constructed from mRNA of human salivary gland. The entire coding sequence for preprokallikrein and for the 5'- and 3'-untranslated regions were isolated by using a mixture of oligonucleotides corresponding to amino acids 51-56 of human urinary kallikrein and one oligonucleotide corresponding to amino acids 233-238 of human pancreatic kallikrein. The DNA sequence proved that, with the exception of two amino acid exchanges, kallikrein of the human salivary gland is identical with pancreatic kallikrein. Salivary gland and renal kallikrein was expressed in Escherichia coli from plasmid pKK223-3 under the control of the tac promoter. The protein was identified by Western-blot analysis and by demonstration of its specific proteolytic activity. 相似文献

The cry1Ac7 gene of Bacillus thuringiensis strain 234, showing activity against the sugarcane borer Eldana saccharina, was cloned under the control of the tac promoter. The fusion was introduced into the broad-host-range plasmid pKT240 and the integration vector pJFF350 and without the tac promoter into the broad-host-range plasmids pML122 and pKmM0. These plasmids were introduced into a Pseudomonas fluorescens strain isolated from the phylloplane of sugarcane and the endophytic bacterium Herbaspirillum seropedicae found in sugarcane. The ptac-cry1Ac7 construct was introduced into the chromosome of P. fluorescens using the integration vector pJFF350 carrying the artificial interposon Omegon-Km. Western blot analysis showed that the expression levels of the integrated cry1Ac7 gene were much higher under the control of the tac promoter than under the control of its endogenous promoter. It was also determined that multicopy expression in P. fluorescens and H. seropedicae of ptac-cry1Ac7 carried on pKT240 caused plasmid instability with no detectable protein expression. In H. seropedicae, more Cry1Ac7 toxin was produced when the gene was cloned under the control of the Nm(r) promoter on pML122 than in the opposite orientation and bioassays showed that the former resulted in higher mortality of E. saccharina larvae than the latter. P. fluorescens 14::ptac-tox resulted in higher mortality of larvae than did P. fluorescens 14::tox. An increased toxic effect was observed when P. fluorescens 14::ptac-tox was combined with P. fluorescens carrying the Serratia marcescens chitinase gene chiA, under the control of the tac promoter, integrated into the chromosome. 相似文献

We constructed the high-expression plasmid forD-aminoacylase fromAlcaligenes xylosoxydanssubsp.xylosoxydansA-6. The appropriate Shine–Dalgarno sequence (AAGGAG) was introduced to the eight bases upstream of start codon (ATG) ofD-aminoacylase structural gene by site-directed mutagenesis, and then the 1.75-kb DNA fragment including the open reading frame was inserted into the downstream of the tac promoter of plasmid vector pKK223-3. The resultant plasmid, which was named pKNSD2, showed a highD-aminoacylase activity inEscherichia coliJM109 cells transformed with it. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity in only two steps with a final yield of 24% (sp act, 2023 U/mg). 相似文献

To overproduce FokI endonuclease (R.FokI) in an Escherichia coli system, the coding region of R.FokI predicted from the nucleotide sequence was generated from the FokI operon and joined to the tac promoter of an expression vector, pKK223-3. By introduction of the plasmid into E. coli UT481 cells expressing the FokI methylase gene, the R.FokI activity was overproduced about 30-fold, from which R.FokI was purified in amounts sufficient for crystallization. The removal of a stem-loop structure immediately upstream of the R.FokI coding region was essential for overproduction. 相似文献

Four different expression systems were developed for expression of the cDNA encoding human basic fibroblast growth factor (hbFGF), using Escherichia coli as host organism. The hbfgf structural gene was cloned into four expression vectors, pET-3a, pTrc99A, pPR37 and pKK223-3 differing only in their promoters, which were T7, trc, PR and tac respectively. Expression of the gene was induced by adding 0.5 mM (final concentration) of isopropyl--D-thio-galactopyranoside (IPTG) for the vectors carrying T7, trc and tac promoters or by a temperature shift from 30 to 42 °C for the vector carrying PR. The highest level of expression was observed in pET-1005 (a pET-3a derivative)/BL21 (DE3) system with 18.5 mg/l rhbFGF and the second high level expression was in pR37-1007 (pPR37 derivative) BL21 (DE3) system with 5 mg of rhbFGF/l. Since in the latter system a temperature shift was used for induction, 29% of the hbFGF was recovered as inclusion bodies in the insoluble cell fraction. The level of expression for the two other systems (pTrc-1006 and pKK-1008) was very low. 相似文献

A non-self-replicating segment (1370 base pairs) of plasmid R6K was cloned in E. coli and shown to trans-complement temperature-sensitive replication mutants of this plasmid. This segment contains the gene which codes for a protein required for initiation of replication of the plasmid, and was used as a helper in a functional assay for an origin of replication in R6K derivatives. A 420 bp fragment, derived from R6K DNA, was shown to carry a functional origin since it was capable of replicating as a plasmid in E. coli cells carrying the helper segment either on the host chromosome or on a plasmid Col E1 derivative. The copy number of the origin fragment in cells carrying the helper segment on the chromosome is essentially the same as the copy number of R6K. A model for the positive regulation of plasmid R6K replication is presented. 相似文献

Site-directed mutagenesis was utilized to enable direct expression of the mature form of bovine adrenodoxin cDNA using the pKK223-3 expression vector in Escherichia coli. Expression was under control of the "tac" promoter and resulted in a direct expression of soluble mature bovine adrenodoxin (greater than 15 mg per liter). Chromatographic behavior of recombinant adrenodoxin did not differ from that reported for mature native adrenodoxin. The purified recombinant protein was identical to native mitochondrial adrenodoxin on the basis of molecular weight, NH2 terminal sequencing and immunoreactivity. E. coli lysates were brown in color, and the purified protein possessed a visible absorbance spectra identical to native bovine adrenodoxin consistent with incorporation of a [2Fe-2S] cluster in vivo. Recombinant bovine adrenodoxin was active in cholesterol side-chain cleavage when reconstituted with adrenodoxin reductase and cytochrome P450scc and exhibited kinetics reported for native bovine adrenodoxin. The presence of the adrenodoxin amino terminal presequence does not appear to be essential for correct folding of mature recombinant adrenodoxin in E. coli. This expression system should prove useful for overexpression of adrenodoxin mutants in future structure/function studies. The approach described herein can potentially be used to directly express the mature form of any protein in bacteria. 相似文献
