Characterization of bovine interferon ?1: expression in yeast Pichia pastoris, biological activities, and physicochemical characteristics.


ABSTRACT: A bovine interferon ? (BoIFN?) gene that included signal sequence was amplified from bovine liver genomic DNA. The gene was named BoIFN-?1 according to the position at which the encoded gene of the bovine IFN was located in the bovine genome. The sequence included a 23-amino-acid signal peptide and a 166-amino-acid mature peptide. The structural characteristics and phylogenetic relationships of the BoIFN-?1 gene were analyzed. A recombinant mature BoIFN-?1 (rBoIFN-?1) was expressed in the yeast Pichia pastoris. Physicochemical characteristics and antiviral activity were determined in vitro. Recombinant BoIFN-?1 was found to be highly sensitive to trypsin and stable at pH 2.0 or 65°C. It also exhibited antiviral activity, which was neutralized by a rabbit anti-rBoIFN? polyclonal antibody. This study revealed that rBoIFN-?1 has the typical characteristics of IFN? and can be used for both research and industrial application.
