Abstract in another language
The human hemofiltrate peptide HF6478, a putative serine proteinase inhibitor, which is part of the precursor protein LEKTI, was cloned, overexpressed, and purified. HF6478 contains two disulfide bridges with 1-4, 2-3 connectivity, sharing partial homology to Kazal-type domains and other serine proteinase inhibitors. It was expressed as thioredoxin (Trx) fusion protein, and disulfide formation occurred in the oxidative cytoplasm of Escherichia coli Origami (DE3) strain which carries a trxB(-)/gor522(-) double mutation. The soluble fusion protein was purified using metal-chelating affinity chromatography. Cleavage of the Trx fusion protein with factor Xa and subsequent purification yielded the final product in amounts sufficient for structural studies. Characterization of recombinant HF6478 was done by amino acid sequencing, mass spectrometry, capillary zone electrophoresis, and CD spectroscopy. Taking the blood filtrate peptide HF6478 as example, we present a strategy which should facilitate the expression of different extracellular proteins in the E. coli cytoplasm.
