Biochemical and physical properties for a recombinant IL6 Pseudomonas exotoxin fusion protein IL6D24-PE40KDEL / 中国实验血液学杂志

ABSTRACT

The objective was to identify some biochemical and physical properties for fusion protein IL6D24-PE40KDEL. Edman degradation, SDS-PAGE, peptide mass fingerprinting, Western blot and MTT were used for identification of the protein. The results showed that the sequence of N-terminus is Met-Ile-Asp-Lys-Gln-Ile, Met was added because of prokaryotic expression system; Western blot revealed that the purified protein could react with IL6 and PEA antibody. The purified protein IL6D24-PE40KDEL could kill the multiple myeloma cell lines U266 expressing high affinity IL6R, but it could not kill the cell lines CEM which not expressed IL6R; The molecular weight was 58.7 kD measuring by SDS-PAGE; peptide mass fingerprinting (PMF) confirmed that the construction of IL6D24-PE40KDEL was correct. A novel protein by Peptident database in EXPASY web site was identified. In conclusion, IL6D24-PE40KDEL is a new targeting protein with bioactivity of specific killing effect.
