Abstract:
Objective To express and purify the killer immunoglobulin-like receptor KIR3DL1 extracelluar domain.Methods pUC57-KIR3DL1 was used as template,KIR3DL1 extracelluar domain was amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and cloned into pGEM-T vector with A-T cloning technique.After DNA sequence analysis,the target fragment was inserted into the prokaryotic expression vector pET28a-DsbA to construct the recombinant vector pET28a-DsbA /KIR3DL1.The recombinant plasmid was transformed into E.coli BL21(DE3),and induced with IPTG.Bacterial pellets were resuspended in 8M urea and centrifuged to remove the insoluble material.The crude extract was purified by passing over a Ni-NTA-agarose column.After the inclusion body flowing through the Ni-NTA-agarose affinity chromatography was refolded successfully,it was purified by Superdex75 gel filtration and the purification effects of the fusion protein were identified by SDS-PAGE and western blot.Result Some fusion proteins were expressed in the supernatant,and the others were expressed in the form of inclusion bodies.The purity of fusion protein was over 95% after purification under denaturing condition.Conclusion The highly efficient expression of KIR3DL1 extracelluar domain laid the foundation for the further studies on exploration of the mechanism of immunization recognition between KIR3DL1 and its ligand.
