Description

Efficient renaturation solution of Boc-human insulin fusion protein inclusion body and renaturation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of biological medicine, and in particular relates to a high-efficiency renaturation solution of Boc-human insulin fusion protein inclusion bodies and a renaturation method thereof.
Background
Insulin is a 51 amino acid composition of two amino acid chains, 21 amino acid A chain and 30 amino acid B chain, connected by two pairs of disulfide bonds between A7-B7 and A20-B19, and one A6-A11 intra-chain disulfide bond within the A chain.
Human insulin is a protein hormone consisting of 51 amino acids secreted by islet cells within the pancreas. Insulin participates in the metabolism of sugar in the human body, thereby controlling the blood glucose balance in the human body. In 1978, genetech in the united states used the method of biological recombination to express insulin in escherichia coli for the first time. During cleavage renaturation of "proinsulin", trypsin recognizes lysine at position B29 of insulin, producing a large amount of threonine-depleted insulin by-product at position B30 (DesB 30-insulin). Since DesB 30-insulin differs from insulin by only one threonine, separation between them is very difficult, and thus, the introduction of N- (tertiary Ding Yangtan-yl) -lysine (BocK) site-directed to the B29 position of recombinant human insulin results in Boc-human insulin fusion protein.
At present, two systems are adopted for producing recombinant human insulin and analogues thereof, one is a yeast system, the yeast system adopts a mode of secreting human proinsulin analogues, and secreted human insulin precursors already have natural disulfide bonds and correct N-ends, but the yeast fermentation production period is long and the expression level is very low. And secondly, an escherichia coli system is adopted, but escherichia coli expression forms inclusion bodies, disulfide bond mismatch between chains and in chains causes protein inactivity, and a renaturation process of the inclusion bodies is required to form disulfide bonds which are correctly paired.
In the prior art, related to methods of renaturation of insulin, for example, in F-J Lu Baluo De C07K14/62, china patent CN1132845C, an improved method of obtaining insulin precursors with correctly bonded cystine bonds is disclosed, i.e., obtaining 30% to 50% of the correctly renatured product in the presence of cysteine or cysteine hydrochloride and a chaotropic auxiliary agent. Wangli C07K14/62, china patent CN103172727A discloses a method for renaturation by high-efficiency size exclusion chromatography and purification of recombinant human proinsulin, and the method is tried to renaturate Boc-human insulin fusion protein, and the result shows that the recovery rate is low.
