Embodiment 5: inhibition of the recombination MarTX toxin to (alpha+beta 4) BK channel current
Document [Biophys.J.2008,94,3706-3713] shows the born of the same parents of MarTX toxin Yu 4 auxiliary subunit of BK channel β The outer area loop interaction, to inhibit (alpha+beta 4) BK channel current.The present invention examines recombination by patch clamp experiments Electrophysiologic activity of the MarTX toxin to the channel (alpha+beta 4) BK.
Experimental procedure: Human embryonic kidney cells (HEK293T) containing 10% heat-inactivated FBS DMEM (Gibco company, The U.S.) it cultivates in culture solution, growth conditions of the cell in culture dish is 5%CO2, 37 DEG C of constant temperature, constant humidity 95%.Using instantaneous Rotaring dyeing technology, by lipofection by the channel source of people (alpha+beta 4) BK plasmid (α containing hSlo (U23767), 4 (KCNMB4 of β; AF207992 gene order)) it is transferred in HEK293 cell and expresses.
Full cell voltage is carried out using EPC-9 amplifier (HEKA Eletronik, Germany) under room temperature (21 DEG C -25 DEG C) Patch clamp experiments.Extracellular fluid is NaCl 135mM, KCl 5mM, MgCl in experiment21.2mM, CdCl22.5mM, HEPES 5mM, glucose 10mM (adjust pH to 7.4 with NaOH);Liquid is NaCl 10mM, KCl 117mM, MgSO in electrode42mM, HEPES 10mM, MgATP 2mM, EGTA 1mM (adjust pH to 7.2 with KOH).

It discusses
In an embodiment of the present invention, there is the comparative example of three groups of carry out parallel laboratory tests, specifically, respectively by MarTX gene Being integrated into vector plasmid pGEX-4T-3 (it expresses GST label), pGEX-6P-1 (it expresses GST label) and pSMT3, (it is expressed His label and SUMO label) in, and expressed in E.coli BL21 (DE3) respectively.
According to the result (referring to embodiment 3) of its expression and purifying respectively, three groups of comparative examples are merged compared to the present invention The purification result of albumen, obtained protein yield is low or purity is low.
Its reason is analyzed, for pGEX-4T-3-MarTX and pGEX-6P-1-MarTX, contains GST label, GST label Molecular weight about 26kDa, and purpose toxin only has about 4kDa, and due to the structure feature of GST label, it may be by protease digestion Site and polypeptide package wherein, make protease cannot achieve digestion function, few so as to cause the desired polypeptides amount after digestion.It is right In pSMT3-MarTX, expression quantity just seldom, i.e., has just failed in expression step.
The poor reason of induction and contrast example effect, the present inventor, which speculates, may be because that MarTX lps molecule amount is smaller, be not easy It is cut with fusion tag.And contain three pairs of disulfide bond in toxin, it is correct to be not easy reconstruct.And disulfide bond protein expression system is conducive to The correct folding of disulfide bond.Origami B (DE3) belongs to escherichia coli cloning type strain, contains trxB/gor gene mutation.Together When be mutated the two genes the bacterial strain enabled more efficiently to generate disulfide bond in cytoplasm, facilitate containing disulfide bond Activated protein is formed.
Therefore, it have passed through and largely attempt and grope, the present inventor finally has developed MarTX polypeptide preparation of the invention Method using recombinant plasmid of the present invention, and uses E.coli Origami B (DE3) bacterial strain, successfully obtains production Amount and the higher MarTX toxin sample of purity, overcome MarTX toxin since polypeptide molecular weight is smaller, and contain multipair two sulphur Key easily leads to inclusion body expression, so that more difficult obtain a large amount of, soluble, high purity protein defect.Technical side of the invention The expression and purification scheme of case existing MarTX toxin compared to the prior art, 2L thallus can obtain about 3mg polypeptide, output increased Nearly 10 times, realize the efficient green manufacture of MarTX polypeptide.
All references mentioned in the present invention is incorporated herein by reference, independent just as each document It is incorporated as with reference to such.In addition, it should also be understood that, after reading the above teachings of the present invention, those skilled in the art can To make various changes or modifications to the present invention, such equivalent forms equally fall within model defined by the application the appended claims It encloses.
