[Expression and identification of recombinant arresten in Pichia pastoris].
Arresten as a endogenous inhibitor of angiogenesis originated from the carboxyl-terminal 223 amino acids fragment of the non-collagen domain in alpha1 chain of human collagen IV. In order to get the soluble arresten with biological activity, the cDNA of arresten was cloned and expressed in Pichia pastoris. The produced arresten cDNA was amplified by PCR using primer P1:5'-AGGCCCCGATGGGTTGC-3', primer P2:5'-CTATAAG GCACTTTACGGTTTC-3'. The PCR products was cloned into pGEM-T vector, and sequenced. The arresten cDNA from pGEM-T vector was recombined with vector pPIC9 as pPIC9-arresten, used to transform E. coli DH5alpha, and the inserted arresten cDNA confirmed by agarose electrophoresis and sequencing. pPIC9-arresten was linearized by Sac I. Pichia pastoris GS115 was treated with PEG1000 (followed Invitrogen' s specification); transformed with linear recombined pPIC9-arresten. Pichia pastoris GS115 was culured on MD mediun, single clone was selected and the DNA from the single clone was extracted, used as template, characterized by PCR using the second pair primers P3:5'-CGCTCGAGAAAAGATCTGTTGATC-3', P4:5'-GCCCCGG ATCCTTATGTTCTFCTCATACAG-3'. The polynucleotides CTCGAGAAAAGA used as marker sequence was inserted into primer P3 for signal peptidase to cleave off the signal sequence correctively. The recombined Pichia pastoris GS115 was selected according to the results of PCR, cultured on MM and MD media and then in the BMGY media using methanol as inducer. Expressed arresten was analysed by SDS-PAGE. The soluble arresten expressed by Pichia pastoris gave apparent molecular weight in SDS-PAGE consistent with that calculated, and in matrigel gel it showed inhibitary activity on the tubulation of endothelial cell ECV-304 induced by tumor cell MDA-MB-435S. These results showesd arresten with biological activity is expressed successfully in Pichia pastoris GS115.
