摘要
目的 克隆表达肠出血性大肠杆菌(EHEC)O157:H7志贺样毒素Ⅱ(ShigaliketoxinⅡ,Stx2),并鉴定其生物学活性.方法 采用PCR法自EHEC O157:H7基因组扩增志贺样毒素Ⅱ的编码基因stx2,T-A克隆后构建原核表达质粒pET-11c(+)-stx2,经测序鉴定后转化E.col iBL21(DE3),IPTG诱导表达,以SDS-PAGE、Western blot分析目的蛋白的表达.以EHEC O157:H7野生菌株作对照,通过对HeLa细胞的细胞毒作用及对小鼠攻毒实验,鉴定重组蛋白的生物学活性.结果 扩增的stx2基因约1230bp;原核表达质粒pET-11c(+)-stx2经酶切和测序鉴定与预期序列一致;并在E.coli BL21(DE3)中得到表达,蛋白表达率约25%;PAGE初步测定目的蛋白的相对分子质量(Mr)约72×10^3;重组蛋白Stx2对HeLa细胞具有细胞毒作用,CD50为35 pg/ml;Stx2对小鼠致死剂量LD100为10μg.结论 成功克隆并表达了Stx2重组蛋白,为探讨O157:H7菌的感染机制及其防治研究奠定了一定的基础.
Objective To clone the gene and identify the activity of Shiga like toxin Ⅱ ( Stx2 ) of EHEC O157:H7. Methods The gene of stx2 was amplified from EHEC O157:H7 chromosome by PCR and then cloned into pMD18-T vector. Thereafter, the genes were cut from pMD18-T vector and cloned into prokaryotic expression plasmid pEr-lie( + ), and the recombinant pasmids pET-11c( + )-stx2 were transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3).The protein of Stx2 was analyzed and purified with polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, Results The gene of six2 was successfully cloned into pET-11c( + ). The molecular relative mass(M,) of the expressed products was 72× 10^3, the expression rate was about 25%, and the 50% cell death( CD50 )of Stx2 in HeLa cell was 35 pg/ml. Recombinant protein Stx2 showed lethal toxicity to mice when injected intraperitoneally, the LD100 was about 10 μg. Conclusion Stx2 was successfully expressed in prokaryotic expression system.
