ABSTRACT
Objective:
To construct pGEX-3X/hTSHa Escherichia coli(E.coli)expression system and prepare purified recombinant GST-recombinant human thyroid stimulating hormone(rhTSH)α protein.Methods:
The complete coding sequence of hTSHα was obtained by RT-PCR with total RNA extracted from fresh chorial tissue as the template,and thereafter cloned into expression vector pGEX-3X by EcoRl and BamHI digestion.The recombinant plasmid was transformed into E.coli Mach1-T1 and then induced expression by WrG.The GST-rhTSHα fusion protein was identified by SDS-PAGE and its antigenicity was verified by a modified competitive ELISA.Results:
A specific protein band of 36 ku,in accordance with predicted molecular weight,could be visualized in SDS-PAGE.As the result of ELISA,the recombinant GST-hTSHα protein can inhibit the intact TSH molecular binding with anti-TSHα antibody in a dose dependent manner.Conclusion:
The cDNA of hTSHα was cloned and the recombinant expression vector pGEX-3X/hTSHα was constructed successfully.The recombinant GST-rhTSHα protein could be highly expressed in E.coli Machl-T1 and was approved of possessing antigenicity.
