Aims To construct the N-terminal Streptagged( NS-tagged) fusion protein expression vector,and to apply the vector to express NS-tagged fusion proteins of Chlamydia RNA polymerase subunit. Methods By using PCR method,NS fusion protein tag and a new multiple cloning sites( MCS) were inserted into p ET21c-DH plasmid by primers to replace the original T7 protein tag and MCS. The newly introduced Not I cutting site was chosen for self-ligation of PCR product. Then,the cyclized PCR product was transformed into DH-5α competent cells. The positive clones were selected by PCR and sequencing. To get NS-tagged fusion proteins of chlamydial RNA polymerase subunits,the α,β and β' subunits were inserted between Bam H I and Sal I cutting sites of the newly constructed expression vector. Then,the NS-α,NS-β and NS-β' expression vectors were transformed into Arctic Express expression cells. The fusion protein expression statuses of transformed cells were identified by Commassie blue staining and Western blot. Results The NS-tagged fusion protein expression vector p ET21c-NS-MCS was successfully constructed,and NS-α,NS-β and NS-β'fusion proteins were obtained by using this newly constructed expression vector. Conclusions In this project,we constructed an NS-tagged fusion protein expression vector and applied it to express NS-α,NS-βand NS-β' fusion proteins. Our study can lay a solid foundation for the study of transcriptional regulation of Chlamydia genes.
