Technical Field of the Invention
The present invention provides a single step procedure for the purification and activation of tagged p38 MAP kinase by affinity chromatography. The tagged p38 MAP kinase is expressed in E. coli and subsequently activated by using differentially tagged active upstream activators.
Background of the Invention
MAP Kinases (MAPKs) can be activated directly by dual phosphorylation at threonine and serine residues in the activation loop by upstream dual specificity protein kinases, such as MAP kinase kinases (MAPKKs or MKKs). Many proteins that are activated by phosphorylation are artificially modified into active forms by mutating the desired amino acid to a phosphoamino acid-mimicking acidic amino acid(s). One of the obstacles in studying the biochemical properties of individual MAP kinase modules and their constituents is the difficulty in obtaining sufficient quantities in a purified form.
The other problematic area is that even after obtaining the pure form expressed as recombinant proteins in bacteria, they have to be activated in vitro using the individual components. The present invention now provides a simultaneous purification and activation process for appropriately tagged p38 MAP kinase. Summary of the Invention hi one general aspect there is provided a process for the preparation of purified bisphosphorylated GST- p38 MAP Kinase. The process includes adsorbing of the impure GST- p38 MAP Kinase on a GST specific column; washing the column with a phosphate buffered saline solution; loading of the tagged upstream activator and activation buffer into the column; washing of the column with phosphate buffered saline, and eluting the bisphosphorylated GST- p38 MAP Kinase off the column with one or more elution buffers.

For example, the tagged upstream activator may include His-MKK6, MYC- MKK6, His-MKK3, MYC-MKK3, CBD-MKK6, CBD-MKK3, MBP-MKK6 or MBP- MKK3 changes. The activation buffer may include one or more of 8-12 mM HEPES (N-2- hydroxyethylpiperazine-iV-2-ethanesulfonic acid), 8-12 mM MgCl2, 0.1-0.4 HiM Na3VO4, 0.02-0.05% Brij-35, 0.5-1.5 mM ATP and 0.5-2.0 mM DTT or 5-20 mM TRIS (tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane), 8-12 mM MgCl2, 0.1-0.4 mM Na3VO4, 0.02-0.05% Brij-35, 0.5-1.5 mM ATP and 0.5-2.0 mM DTT. The activation buffer may be one or more of 10 mM HEPES, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.2 mM Na3VO4, 0.03% Brij-35, 1 mM ATP and 1.5 mM DTT or 10 mM TRIS, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.2 mM Na3VO4, 0.03% Brij-35, 1 mM ATP and 1.5 mM DTT.
The elution buffer may include 50 mM Tris-HCl and 10 mM glutathione, 50 mM Tris-HBr andlO mM glutathione or 50 mM Tris-HI and 10 mM glutathione. The elution buffer may be adjusted to pH 8.0.

Detailed Description of the Invention
The present invention is a unique methodology for the activation of proteins. It allows for simultaneous purification and activation in a column as a single step. The activation of the protein is done by bisphosphorylation of the tagged p38 MAP Kinase with an upstream activator in the presence of a phosphate donor, such as ATP. The activated p38 MAP kinase is purified to greater than or equal to about 90% purity with about 75% to 90% activation.p38 MAPK was cloned as an appropriately tagged fusion protein, in this case GST, and expressed in E.coli BL21 cells as per the process described by Lisnock et. al., Biochemistry, 37 (47), 16573-81 (1998). The cells were grown in 1000 ml LB medium at 370C with agitation at 225 rpm until the 0.D600 was 0.8. Expression was induced with isopropylthio-, -D-galactoside (IPTG) at a final concentration of 0.25 mM for 8 to 12 hours at 18-3O0C. The final cell suspension was centrifuged at 2380 g for lO min.
The upstream activator (for example, MKK6 or MKK3) was cloned as a differentially tagged (e.g. His-tag, Myc-tag, Maltose binding protein (MBP) tag, cellulose binding domain (CBD)-tag) fusion protein and expressed in E.coli M15 cells. The cells were grown in 500 ml LB medium at 370C with agitation at 225 rpm until the 0.D600 was 0.8. Expression was induced with isopropylthio-, -D-galactoside (IPTG) at a final concentration of 0.5 mM for 3 hours at 370C. The final cell suspension was centrifuged at 2380 g for 10 min to form a cell pellet.
Cell Lysis and Solubilization
The cell pellet was resuspended in lysis buffer, containing 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, 1 50 mM NaCl, 10 mM DTT, 10% glycerol, 1% Triton-XIOO and IX protease inhibitors. The mixture was freeze-thawed 4 times and was put on ice for 45 mins. The suspension was then centrifuged at 35,000 rpm at 40C for 30 mins. The supernatant was collected and kept aside.
Affinity Chromatography and Activation
The differentially tagged upstream activator, wherein the upstream activator includes MKK6 or MMK3 and the tag includes His (Histidine), MYC protein, Maltose binding protein (MBP) or cellulose binding domain (CBD) (as per the process described by Lisnock et. al., Biochemistry 37(47), 16573-81 (1998)), was purified using an affinity column according to the manufacturer's instructions. The affinity column may include a HisTrap™, MYCtrap FF, Amylose-column or Calmodulin-binding resin column.
The GST-p38 MAP Kinase was loaded onto the GST column (Amersham Biosciences) with PBS (phosphate buffered saline), pH 7.3 and washed until the 0.D280 achieved a stable base line. Next, the differentially tagged upstream activator, wherein differentially tagged upstream activator is the same as defined above, was loaded along with activation buffer that includes 8-12 mM HEPES (N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-JV'-2- ethanesulfonic acid), 8-12 mM MgCl2, 0.1-0.4 mM Na3VO4, 0.02-0.05% Brij-35, 0.5-1.5 mM ATP and 0.5-2.0 mM DTT or 5-20 mM TRIS (tris (hydroxymethyl) aminoniethane), 8-12 mM MgCl2, 0.1-0.4 mM Na3VO4, 0.02-0.05% Brij-35, 0.5-1.5 mM ATP and 0.5-2.0 niM DTT and incubated between 15-3O0C for 5-18 hrs. The tagged GST-p38 MAPK was eluted with elution buffer that includes 50 mM Tris-HCl, 10 mM glutathione, pH 8.0.
An ELISA was performed to determine whether the p38 MAP Kinase was phosphorylated. The ELISA was run using the commercial Biosource ELISA kit and protocol. The total protein was estimated by the Bradford protein estimation method (Bio- Rad). The ELISA test revealed the activation of GST ρ38 MAP Kinase was from about 75% to about 90%, which is shown in Fig. 1 as compared with standard p38 MAPK:
The ELISA results showed the activation or bis-phosphorylation of GST-p38 MAPK. The assay was carried out with a commercially available kit from Biosource. CB- chromogen blank, SDB - standard dilution buffer, standard p38 MAPK (200 pg) and sequentially diluted bisphosphorylated GST-p38 MAPK.
As seen in Fig. 2, the purity of the activated protein was determined by running the sample on a SDS-PAGE (10%) gel and using densitometric analysis. The densitometry test revealed that GST-p38 MAP Kinase was obtained with a purity of more than about 85% to about 90%.
While the present invention has been described in terms of its specific embodiments, certain modifications and equivalents will be apparent to those skilled in the art and are included within the scope of the present invention.
