Objective To design and construct a new non-fusion soluble expression vector pTIG-mSUMO(small ubiq-uitin-related modifier) using the widely used solubility promoting protein SUMO and based on the translational coupling phenomenon in order to enable the non-fusion soluble expression of the broad-spectrum antiviral protein RA in Escherichia coli by pTIG-mSUMO.Methods The smt3 gene coding for SUMO protein was cloned from yeast genome DNA by PCR. After directed-site silent mutation to eliminate the EcoRⅠsite, the mutant mSUMO was inserted into pET-22b to obtain the translational coupling expression vector pTIG-mSUMO.The RA was subject to PCR amplification and cloned into the pTIG-mSUMO to obtain the expression plasmid pTIG-mSUMO/RA which was supposed to direct the soluble expression of RA by the translational coupling with mSUMO.Results A translational coupling expression vector pTIG-mSUMO which could di-rect/drive the SUMO and heterogonous protein non-fusion expression simultaneously was designed and constructed.The Western blotting result indicated that pTIG-mSUMO could direct the high-level expression of RA, around 40%of which was soluble.Conclusion A translational coupling expression vector pTIG-mSUMO is obtained.After coupling with SUMO, RA is highly expressed in E.coli and both the expression level and solubility are greatly improved.pTIG-mSUMO might contrib-ute to soluble expression of other proteins.

We reconstructed the erythromycin macrocyclic lactone (6-deoxyerythronolide B, 6dEB) synthesis pathway in Escherichia coli. We first cloned all the genes needed to synthesize the 6dEB into multi-gene co-expressed vectors. Then using the recognition sequences of isoschizomers Xba I/Spe I of vectors, we assembled the related genes into a series multiple-genes recombinant plasmids pBJ144, pBJ130. The recombinant plasmids pBJ144, pBJ130 were cotransformed into BAP1 to get the recombinant BAP1(pBJ144/pBJ130). SDS-PAGE analysis showed that individual genes were expressed correctly. After inducing at low temperature, adding propionate as substrate, we validated the crude product by mass spectrometry and the 6dEB yield was about 10 mg/L. These results indicated that the synthetic pathway of 6dEB was successfully assembled and reconstructed in Escherichia coli, which will greatly facilitate the reconstruction of whole erythromycin synthesis pathway and finally help to establish a stable research platform for developing of new derivatives of erythromycin and combinatorial biosynthesis of polyketide-type antibiotics.

Objective To explore the safety and therapeutic effect of transesophageal echocardiography(TEE)-guided transthoracic minimally invasive intervention for congenital heart disease complicated with compound heart ab-normalities in children.Methods From September 2013 to January 2018,32 children with congenital heart disease complicated with compound heart abnormalities were collected,who undergoing TEE-guided transthoracic minimally invasive intervention at the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery,Dalian Children's Hospital were collected.There were 6 cases of ventricular septal defect (VSD)combined with atrial septal defect (ASD),11 cases of VSD combined with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA),9 cases of ASD combined with PDA,3 cases of VSD combined with pulmonary stenosis (PS),and 3 cases of ASD combined with PS.TEE-guided transcatheter closure was performed within a minimally in-vasive transthoracic minimal incision (1 -2 cm)under non-cardiopulmonary bypass.The efficacy of the procedure was evaluated by TEE.The transthoracic echocardiography,chest film and cardiogram after post-procedure examina-tions were followed.Results TEE-guided transthoracic minimally invasive perventricular intervention was successfully performed in all the sick children.The mean duration of operation,intensive care unit monitoring and ventilation were (54.2 ± 21.8)min,(14.3 ± 8.7)h and (3.7 ± 2.9)h,respectively.No patient received diuretic drugs,sedation drugs,blood transfusion or conventional surgical repair. The follow - up period for all the patients lasted 12 -48 months.No arrhythmias,residual shunts or occluder detachments,or thrombosis,hemorrhage,or new valve regurgitation occurred.Conclusions TEE -guided transthoracic minimally invasive intervention is feasible and has a promising prognosis for young children with congenital heart disease combined with compound heart abnormalities.

Objective:To propose and verify a surgical classification system for the axial primary malignant and aggressive benign tumor.Methods:The CZH surgical classification system was originally developed for the axial primary malignant and aggressive benign tumor. The CZH surgical classification system includes seven types, according to the anatomic features and the extension of tumor violation. A total of 136 patients (79 males and 57 females) with axial primary malignant and aggressive benign tumor from multiple tertiary centers who received surgery from July 2006 to July 2019 were included. The average age was 44.40±17.55 years (8-83 years) old. There were 99 malignant tumors and 37 aggressive benign tumors included. The number of patients with each classification was presented as followed, Type I 13, Type II 15, Type IIIa 3, Type IIIb 20, Type IVa 43, Type IVb 12, Type Va 21, Type Vb 3, Type VI 2, Type VIIa 3 and Type VIIb 1. Surgical procedures were selected according to different types in classification. The inter- and intra-observer consistencies were evaluated by the Kendall's W test. The VAS, Frankel score, overall survival and recurrence free survival were recorded during the follow-up. Results:The inter- and intra-observer consistent coefficient was 0.973 and 0.996, respectively ( P<0.05). The single posterior approach was adopted for the Type II tumors. Other patients underwent surgery by the combined antero-posterior approach. The majority in anterior approach (113 cases) was the modified submandibular approach. The reconstruction modes included anterior "T" shape titanium mesh (112 cases) or the 3D printed prothesis (7 cases) combined with the posterior occipto-cervical fusion (92 cases) or the pedicle screw system (44 cases). The average surgical duration and the volume of intraoperative bleeding was 348.40±136.14 min (60-760 min) and 1 225.69±859.40 ml (80-4 000 ml), respectively. The operation duration and volume of intraoperative bleeding among each type were with statistical difference. The patients with Type IV, V tumors had longer operation duration than those with Type II tumors. Those with Type V and VII tumors had longer operation duration than those with Type I tumors. The patients with Type V tumors had more intraoperative bleeding than those with Type I-IV tumors. The average preoperative VAS score was 4.15±2.25 and then was reduced significantly to 0.62±0.71 and 0.38±0.59 at one and three months after operation, respectively. The Frankel score was also significantly ameliorated at one and three months postoperatively. There were 22 postoperative complications (16.2%). The complications included cerebral spinal fluid leak (12.5%), dysphagia and/or dysphonia (7.4%), dyspnea (5.1%), wound infection (3.7%), wound hemorrhage (2.2%) and pharyngeal dehiscence (1.5%). The incidence of postoperative complication was 25.9% in Type IV-VII tumors, while 11.8% in Type I-III tumors. Conclusion:CZH surgical classification system was verified with high observer consistency. This classification system could assist surgeons to select proper surgical approaches, resection modes and reconstruction modes, and thus ensure the safety of surgery and reduce the recurrence. The tumors in Type IV, V and VII may be with more challenging for surgeons. The incidence of postoperative complication in Type IV-VII tumors may be higher than that in Type I-III tumors.
