RESUMO

We studied the ligation of coagulation factor VIII heavy and light chains in Escherichia coli by utilizing the intein-mediated protein trans-splicing. A B-domain deleted factor VIII (BDD-FVIII) gene was broken into two halves of heavy and light chains before Ser1657 which meets the splicing required conserved residue and then fused to 106 and 48 amino acid-containing N-part termed Int-N and C-part termed Int-C coding sequences of split mini Ssp DnaB intein respectively. These two fusion genes were constructed into a prokaryotic expression vector pBV220. Through induction for expression of recombinant protein it displayed an obvious protein band as predicted size of BDD-FVIII protein on SDS-PAGE gel. Western blotting using factor VIII specific antibodies confirmed that this protein band is BDD-FVIII produced by protein trans-splicing. It demonstrated that the heavy and light chains of BDD-FVIII can be efficiently ligated with the Ssp DnaB intein-mediated protein trans-splicing. These results provided evidence for encouraging our ongoing investigation with intein as a means in dual AAV vectors carrying the factor VIII gene to overcome the packaging size limitation of a single AAV vector in hemophilia A gene therapy.

RESUMO

A library with potential to produce six amino acids cyclic peptides was prepared using pET-28a as the starting plasmid. pVmut was used to amplify the Int(C)-dnaB-N-Int(N) fragment that was inserted into pET28a to give pEV. On pEV, DnaB split intein was expressed under the strong T7 promoter. Analyses of Escherichia coli transformed with pEV showed that DnaB split intein was produced in large quantity and the fusion protein self-spliced efficiently to produce cyclized DnaB-N. A synthesized 115 bp fragment mixture encoding 5 random amino acids was inserted into pEV to generate pEV-IS. The ligation mixture was transformed into E. coli. A library of 10(3) clones was obtained, 20 randomly picked clones were sequenced. All of them contain different sequences. Nine clones were chosen for further analysis. Split-intein-ISs were expressed in large quantity, and 90% of them self-spliced under 16 degrees C in 20 hours. After induction at 30 degrees C for 3 hours, the expressed DnaB split intein was purified using His-column, and then a molecular weight of target cyclic peptide was detected by MALDI-TOF-MS.

RESUMO

Human brain natriuretic peptide (hBNP) was used clinically for the treatment of acute decompensated congestive heart failure. In this paper, hBNP was expressed as a fusion protein with a histidine tag and Ssp dnaB mini-intein which was capable of self-cleavage. After affinity chromatography with Ni-Sepharose and renaturation, the fusion protein was enriched with CM-cellulose. Ssp dnaB mini-intein mediated peptide-bond hydrolysis was triggered by shifting the pH and temperature in the CM-cellulose column, which let to the release of hBNP from the fusion protein and the separation of hBNP from His-DnaB. The hBNP sample was further purified by C4 reverse phase HPLC, and 2.8mg of the peptide with homogeneity of 97% was obtained from one liter of culture medium. The biological activity was assayed in vitro, which indicated that hBNP had a potent vasodilatory effect on rabbit aortic strips with an EC50 of 1.94 x 10(-6) mg/mL.
