目的克隆人睫状神经营养因子(hCNTF)基因,并在大肠杆菌宿主系统中高效表达出具有生物活性的hCNTF蛋白。方法从人外周神经组织总RNA经逆转录-聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)扩增得到编码人CNTF的全长cDNA片段,此片段经回收和纯化后克隆进PGEM-5Zf(+)质粒载体,并进行了DNA序列分析,然后进一步亚克隆进T7启动子表达载体,用IPTG在大肠杆菌宿主中诱导hCNTF蛋白表达,并以体外培养的鸡胚背根神经节(DRG)神经元测定了重组hCNTF蛋白的神经营养活性。结果成功克隆了人CNTF基因,含重组CNTF质粒的大肠杆菌经0.4mmol/LIPTG诱导3小时后,靶蛋白占细菌总蛋白的25%以上。结论hCNTF基因的克隆和高效表达为进一步研究其结构功能关系和临床应用打下了基础
Objective To clone human ciliary neurotrophic factor (hCNTF) gene and express the biologically active hCNTF protein efficiently in E. coli host system. Methods The full-length cDNA encoding human CNTF was amplified by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) from total RNA of human peripheral nerve tissue. The fragment was recovered and purified and cloned into PGEM-5Zf (+) plasmid vector The expression of hCNTF protein in E.coli host was induced by IPTG. The expression of hCNTF protein in the chick embryo dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons cultured in vitro was determined by recombinant DNA sequencing Neurotrophic activity of hCNTF protein. Results The human CNTF gene was cloned successfully. The target protein accounted for more than 25% of total bacterial protein after induced with 0.4 mmol / L IPTG for E. coli containing recombinant CNTF plasmid. Conclusion The cloning and high expression of hCNTF gene lay the foundation for further study of its structural and functional relationship and clinical application
