title: [Construction of BPI23-Fc gamma 1 recombinant protein prokaryotic expression vector and the expression and biological assessment of BPI23-Fc gamma 1 recombinant protein].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To construct pBV-BPI600-Fc gamma 1(700) recombinant expression vector, to transform into Escherichia coli DH5 alpha, and to induce the expression of BPI23-Fc gamma 1 anti-bacterial recombinant protein.
  
  
  METHODS
  Genes which encode BPI23 and Fc gamma 1 were amplified by RT-PCR from mRNA that was extracted from HL-60 cell and normal human leukocytes; Recombinant cloning vector and recombinant expression vector were constructed. pBV-BPI600-Fc gamma 1(700) recombinant expression vector was transformed into the competent Escherichia coli DH5 alpha and BPI23-Fc gamma 1 recombinant protein was expressed by temperature induced method.
  
  
  RESULTS
  (1) Expected amplified products BPI600 bp and Fc gamma 1(700) bp were obtained by RT-PCR. (2) pUC18-BPI180, pUC18-BPI420, and pUC18-Fc gamma 1(700) recombinant cloning vector were successfully constructed, and sequences were identical with the reported ones. (3) pBV-BPI600-Fc gamma 1(700) recombinant expression vector was successfully constructed, and results of the enzyme digestion analysis were identical with expected ones. (4) pBV-BPI600-Fc gamma 1(700) recombinant expression vector was transformed into the competent Escherichia coli DH5 alpha and BPI23-Fc gamma 1 recombinant protein was expressed by temperature-induced method, and its expression level was accounted for 20% of total bacterial proteins. (5) The renatured BPI23-Fc gamma 1 recombinant protein had anti-bacterial activity and biological functions of complement fixation, opsonization.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  pBV-BPI600-Fc gamma 1(700) recombinant expression vector was successfully constructed, and BPI23-Fc gamma 1 recombinant protein with BPI and IgGFc double biological activity was expressed in Escherichia coli.
