Abstract:
Objective To construct, express, purify and screen immunosuppressive molecule against human soluble APRIL (a proliferation-inducing ligand). Methods The cDNA of soluble APRIL (sAPRIL) was mutated and TEL Th epitope was added. Mutants was expressed by pQE-80L/DH5? system, identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting, purified by Ni-NTA resin. Their activity on stimulating the proliferation of Raji cell was detected. Results Four sAPRIL mutants were constructed and expressed as follows: HEL Th epitope was added at C end (Ⅰ); HEL Th epitope was added at N end (Ⅱ); the last 45-bp DNA was deleted at C end and HEL Th epitope was added (Ⅲ); the first 45-bp DNA was deleted at N end and HEL Th epitope was added (Ⅳ). Specific protein bands according to mutant Ⅰ-Ⅳ were detected by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. Mutant protein was purified by Ni-NTA successfully. Mutants Ⅰand Ⅱ promoted cell proliferation remarkably, and mutant Ⅲand Ⅳnot. Conclusion Four sAPRIL mutants was constructed and expressed successfully. Immunosuppressive molecule against sAPRIL that can not promote cell proliferation was screened out, and it laid a foundation for further study on their immunosuppressive function.
