A novel protocol for the preparation of active recombinant human pancreatic lipase from Escherichia coli.

ABSTRACT: An active recombinant human pancreatic lipase (recHPL) was successfully prepared for the first time from the Escherichia coli expression system using short Strep-tag II (ST II). The recHPL-ST II was solubilized using 8 M urea from E.coli lysate and purified on a Strep-Tactin-Sepharose column. After refolding by stepwise dialyses in the presence of glycerol and Ca2+ for 2 days followed by gel filtration, 1.8-6 mg of active recHPL-ST II was obtained from 1 L of culture. The recHPL was non-glycosylated, but showed almost equal specific activity, pH-dependency and time-dependent stability compared to those of native porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) at 37°C. However, the recHPL lost its lipolytic activity above 50°C, showing a lower heat-stability than that of native PPL, which retained half its activity at this temperature.

Project description:BackgroundLeukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) is a multifunctional cytokine which plays multiple roles in different biological processes such as implantation, bone remodeling, and hematopoiesis. The buESCs are difficult to culture due to lack of proper understanding of the culture conditions. LIF is one of the important factors which maintain the pluripotency in embryonic stem cells and commercial LIF from murine and human origin is used in the establishment of buffalo embryonic stem cells (buESCs). The LIF from a foreign origin is not able to maintain pluripotency and proliferation in buESCs for a long term which is contributed by difference in the binding sites on LIF; therefore, culture medium supplemented with buffalo-specific LIF may enhance the efficiency of buESCs by improving the environment of culture conditions. The high cost of LIF is another major drawback which restricts buESCs research, thus limits the scope of buffalo stem cell use. Various methods have been developed to produce human and murine LIF in prokaryotic system. However, Buffalo leukemia inhibitory factor (BuLIF) has not been yet produced in prokaryotic system. Here, we describe a simple strategy for the expression and purification of biologically active BuLIF in Escherichia coli (E. coli).ResultsThe BuLIF cDNA from buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) was cloned into pET22b(+) and expressed in E. coli Lemo-21(DE3). The expression of BuLIF was directed into periplasmic space of E. coli which resulted in the formation of soluble recombinant protein. One step immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC chromatography) was performed for purification of BuLIF with ≥ 95% of homogeneity. The recombinant protein was confirmed by western blot and identified by mass spectroscopy. The biological activity of recombinant BuLIF was determined on murine myeloid leukemic cells (M1 cells) by MTT proliferation assay. The addition of BuLIF increased the reduction of MTT by stimulated M1 cells in a dose-dependent manner. The BuLIF induced the formation of macrophage like structures from M1 cells where they engulfed fluorescent latex beads. The recombinant BuLIF successfully maintained pluripotency in buffalo embryonic stem cells (buESCs) and were positive for stem cells markers such as Oct-4, Sox-2, Nanog, and alkaline phosphatase activity.ConclusionsThe present study demonstrated a simple method for the production of bioactive BuLIF in E. coli through single step purification. BuLIF effectively maintained buffalo embryonic stem cells pluripotency. Thus, this purified BuLIF can be used in stem cell study, biomedical, and agricultural research.

Project description:BackgroundRecombinant protein-based therapeutics have become indispensable for the treatment of many diseases. They are produced using well-established expression systems based on bacteria, yeast, insect and mammalian cells. The majority of therapeutic proteins are glycoproteins and therefore the post-translational attachment of sugar residues is required. The development of an engineered Escherichia coli-based expression system for production of human glycoproteins could potentially lead to increased yields, as well as significant decreases in processing time and costs.ResultsThis work describes the expression of functional human-derived glycosyltransferase UDP-GalNAc:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2 (GalNAcT2) in a recombinant E. coli strain. For expression, a codon-optimised gene encoding amino acids 52-571 of GalNAcT2 lacking the transmembrane N-terminal domain was inserted into a pET-23 derived vector encoding a polyhistidine-tag which was translationally fused to the N-terminus of the glycosyltransferase (HisDapGalNAcT2). The glycosyltransferase was produced in E. coli using a recently published expression system. Soluble HisDapGalNAcT2 produced in SHuffle® T7 host cells was purified using nickel affinity chromatography and was subsequently analysed by size exclusion chromatography coupled to multi-angle light scattering (SEC-MALS) and circular dichroism spectroscopy to determine molecular mass, folding state and thermal transitions of the protein. The activity of purified HisDapGalNAcT2 was monitored using a colorimetric assay based on the release of phosphate during transfer of glycosyl residues to a model acceptor peptide or, alternatively, to the granulocyte-colony stimulating growth factor (G-CSF). Modifications were assessed by Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Time-of-flight Mass Spectrometry analysis (MALDI-TOF-MS) and Electrospray Mass Spectrometry analysis (ESI-MS). The results clearly indicate the glycosylation of the acceptor peptide and of G-CSF.ConclusionIn the present work, we isolated a human-derived glycosyltransferase by expressing soluble HisDapGalNAcT2 in E. coli. The functional activity of the enzyme was shown in vitro. Further investigations are needed to assess the potential of in vivo glycosylation in E. coli.
