OBJECTIVETo prokaryoticly express and purify HuD protein and its RNA recognition motifs.

METHODSHuD protein was prokaryoticly expressed and purified by molecular cloning technology. Its biologic activity was testified by Western Blot.

RESULTSPurified HuD protein and its RNA recognized motifs were observed.

CONCLUSIONSThe result might aid for basic research and clinical application.
