"protein" also includes post-translational modifications introduced by chemical or enzymatic reactions, it being understood that the term may encompass variants or fragments of a protein.
Any suitable MSL protein may be used in the present invention, and the MSL protein may include a full-length MSL protein or a biologically active fragment thereof. As used herein, a biologically active fragment of MSL protein is meant to be a polypeptide that retains all or part of the function of MSL protein. Typically, the biologically active fragment retains at least 50% of the activity of the MSL protein. Under more preferred conditions, the active fragment is capable of retaining 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 99%, or 100% of the activity of the MSL protein.
In a preferred embodiment, the MSL proteins of the invention are isolated or purified from plants. In another preferred embodiment, the MSL protein may also be artificially prepared, such as a recombinant MSL protein produced according to conventional genetic engineering recombinant techniques.
The proteins or polypeptides of the invention may have covalent modifications at the C-terminus and/or N-terminus. They may also exist in various forms (e.g., native, fusion, glycosylated, non-glycosylated, lipidated, non-lipidated, phosphorylated, non-phosphorylated, myristoylated, non-myristoylated, monomeric, multimerised, particulate, etc.).
MSL proteins derived from other species are encompassed by the present invention, particularly those proteins having homology to MSL proteins. As used herein, the term "homology" refers to a polymeric molecule, e.g., an overall correlation between nucleic acid molecules (e.g., DNA molecules and/or RNA molecules) and/or between polypeptide molecules. In general, the term "homology" means the evolutionary relationship between two molecules. Thus, two homologous molecules will have a common evolutionary ancestor. In the context of the present invention, the term "homology" includes identity and similarity.
"Homology" can be determined using methods known in the art (such as sequence comparison algorithms) when compared and aligned with maximum identity over a comparison window, two or more sequences have a specified percentage of nucleotides that are identical over a specified region. The percentage of "homology" between two sequences can be determined using the BLASTP algorithm version 2.2.2 (Altschul, stephen f., thomas l.madden, alejandro a. Jinghui Zhang, zheng Zhang, webb Miller, and David J.Lipman(1997),"Gapped BLAST and PSI-BLAST:a new generation of protein database search programs",Nucleic Acids Res.) using default parameters.
In some embodiments, polymer molecules are considered "homologous" to each other if at least 25%,30%,35%,40%,45%,50%,55%,60%,65%,70%,75%,80%,85%,90%,95%,96%,97%,98%,99% or 100% of the monomers in the molecule are identical (identical monomers) or similar (conservative substitutions).

"insertion" or "addition" refers to an alteration in the nucleotide sequence that results in an increase in one or more nucleotides as compared to the naturally occurring molecule.
The nucleic acid molecules of the invention include coding sequences obtained by codon optimization. Codons refer to a group of every adjacent three nucleotides in a messenger RNA molecule that represent a certain amino acid sequence during protein synthesis. "codon optimization" is intended to include the modification of the codon composition of a recombinant nucleic acid without changing the amino acid sequence.
In a preferred embodiment, the nucleic acid molecule encoding the MSL recombinant protein has the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO. 1.

By "operably linked" is meant a condition in which certain portions of a linear DNA sequence are capable of modulating or controlling the activity of other portions of the same linear DNA sequence. For example, if a promoter controls transcription of a sequence, it is operably linked to a coding sequence. The vector may be, for example, an expression vector designed to express a nucleotide sequence in a host cell, or a viral vector designed to produce a recombinant virus or virus-like particle.
The host cells of the present invention are preferably eukaryotic cells, and examples of eukaryotic host cells useful in the present invention include, but are not limited to, yeast cells, insect cells, and mammalian cells, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells, spodoptera frugiperda insect cells, fibroblasts (e.g., CHO cells, COS-7 cells, etc.), HEK293 cells, and the like.

Subsequent experiments were performed with 320. Mu.g/ml as the optimal concentration of MSL.
2.5 Effect of MSL recombinant protein on rat kidney-yang deficiency syndrome
As is clear from Table 5, rats developed aversion to cold, hair-holding, hair-drying, and back-bows after 10 days of HCT molding, and accompanied by a decrease in body mass (P < 0.0001), indicating the occurrence of kidney-yang deficiency in rats. Compared with a model group, the phenomena of aversion to cold, cluster, hair dryness, bow back and the like of rats in the low-MSL and high-dose group are obviously relieved after the administration for 10 days; volume mass was significantly increased (P <0.001 or P < 0.0001); wherein the MSL high dose group has similar effect with the positive control group. The results show that MSL has an improving effect on the kidney-yang deficiency syndrome of rats caused by HCT induction.

Note that: # # P <0.0001 compared to the control group; p <0.001 and P <0.0001 compared to model group.
2.6 Effect of MSL recombinant proteins on rat erectile function
As can be seen from Table 6, the model rats had significantly prolonged erection latency (P < 0.0001) and significantly reduced erection rate (P < 0.001) compared to the control group. Compared with the model group, the MSL group rats have significantly reduced erection latency (P <0.05, P < 0.01), significantly increased erection rate (P <0.05, P < 0.01) and are dose dependent. Wherein the MSL high dose group has similar effect with the positive control group. The results show that MSL can improve the erection function of rats with kidney-yang deficiency.

2.7 Effect of MSL recombinant proteins on NO and cGMP levels in rat cavernous tissue
The study of erectile physiology indicates that the non-adrenergic non-cholinergic nerve endings and the corpora cavernosa endothelial cells release NO under the catalysis of nitric oxide synthase, rapidly diffuse into smooth muscle cells from cell membranes, activate guanylate cyclase, increase cGMP synthesis and induce penile erection through a series of cascade reactions. Thus, the NO/cGMP signaling pathway is a key signaling pathway for measurement of the corpora cavernosa erection function. The effect on the levels of NO and cGMP was examined by ELISA. As a result, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the NO and cGMP levels in the corpora cavernosa tissues of rats in the model group were significantly reduced (P < 0.0001) as compared with those in the control group. Compared with the model group, the MSL group rat has significantly increased NO and cGMP levels (P < 0.05, P < 0.01 or P < 0.001) in the corpora cavernosa tissues of the penis, and is dose dependent. Wherein the MSL high dose group has similar effect with the positive control group. The above results indicate that MSL can enhance NO/cGMP signaling in the corpora cavernosa of rats with kidney-yang deficiency.
