Construction and expression of N-terminal mutants of human Eotaxin / 第三军医大学学报

Objective To construct prokaryotic cell expression vector of human Eotaxin mutants.Methods By point mutation,eight amino acid residues in the N-terminal(residues of 3-7)and N-loop(residue 14)regions of Eotaxin were individually mutated to methionine and residue 14 was delleted or methiomine was inserted after the residue 14,and then cloned respectively into prokaryotic cell expression vector-PET30a+.Results Eight N-terminal and N-loop mutants of human Eotaxin and their prokaryotic cell expression vector-PET30a+ were gained.Conclusion The successful construction of prokaryotic cell expression vector of human Eotaxin mutants lays a foundation for their expression and biological activity and for filtering antagonists of CCR3.
