RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To construct a vector containing protein transduction domain (PTD) and bcr/abl fusion gene of chronic myelogenous leukemia and express PTD-bcr/abl fusion protein in E. Coli.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>DNA fragment encoding PTD was synthesized and fused to PCR-amplified bcr/abl gene fragment, then inserted into plasmid pET-16b to get the expression vector pEPb containing PTD-bcr/abl fusion gene, which was transfected and expressed in E. Coli LB21. PTD-bcr/abl fusion protein was purified by affinity chromatography.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>523 bp bcr/abl fusion gene was effectively amplified. The PTD-bcr/abl gene sequencing showed the same sequence as scheduled. The fusion peptide was successfully expressed in E. Coli and purified.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The results may provide a new PTD-bcr/abl fusion peptide for the immunotherapy of CML.</p>
