SummaryWe have worked out an efficient and time saving procedure for the expression of recombinant human prothrombin. The glycoprotein was expressed in the vaccinia virus expression system in several mammalian cell lines. The kidney cell lines Vero and BHK and the human cell line Hela were found to efficiently secrete prothrombin. Expression levels of 3–4 µg of factor II per 106 cells per day corresponding to 18–23 mU per 106 cells per day were achieved. Since the expression levels obtained with the vaccinia virus/Vero cell system were comparable to those obtained in amplified transformed CHO cells it provides an alternative system for the efficient expression of human prothrombin and may allow to further elucidate structure-function relationships of (pro)thrombin and its various effectors.

In this study, we expressed and purified the recombinant baculovirus 373 K/E p53 protein in a baculovirus expression system to characterize this mutant and compare it with wild type p53. Gel- filtration chromatography and chemical cross-linking experiments indicated that purified recombinant baculovirus 373 K/E p53 protein assembles into multimeric forms ranging from tetramers to polymers. Gel-mobility shift assays and protein-DNA cross-linking studies demonstrated that the recombinant protein binds, to a consensus DNA target as a dimer but that additional p53 mutant molecules may then associate with the preformed p53-dimer-DNA complexes to form a larger p53_DNA complexes. These observations suggest that the p53 mutant tetramers and polymers that forms the minimal p53 mutant complex in solution dissociated upon DNA binding to form p53 mutant dimmer DNA complexes. The DNA binding activity of this mutant was then investigated using electrophoretic mobility shift assays as well as supershift assay with anti-p53 antibodies. Binding of the anti-p53 antibody PAb421to the oligomerization promoting domain on p53 stimulated the sequential formation of both the p53_dimer DNA and larger p53-DNA complexes

Pichia Pastoris Expression System

The main goal of the current study was cloning and expression of the human insulin gene in Pichia pastoris expression system, using genetic engineering techniques and its treatment application. Total RNA was purified from fresh normal human pancreatic tissue. RNA of good quality was chosen to obtain a first single strand cDNA. Human preproinsulin gene was amplified from cDNA strand, by using two sets of specific primers contain EcoR1 and Notl restriction sites. The amplified preproinsulin gene fragment was double digested with EcoRI and Not 1 restriction enzymes, then inserted into pPIC9K expression vector. The new pPIC9K-hpi constructive expression vector was transformed by the heat-shock method into the E.coli DH5α competent cells. pPic9k –hpi, which was propagated in the positive transformant E. coli cells, was isolated from cells and then linearised by restriction enzyme SalI, then transformed into Pichia pastoris GS115 using electroporation method. Genomic DNA of His+ transformants cell was extracted and used as a template for PCR analysis. The results showed, that the pPic9k – hpi was successfully integrated into the P. pastoris genome, for selected His+ transformants clones on the anticipated band at 330 bp, which is corresponded to the theoretical molecular size of the human insulin gene. To follow the insulin expression in transformans, Tricine–SDS gel electrophoresis and Western blot analysis were conducted. The results showed a successful expression of recombinant protein was detected by the presence of a single major band with about (5.8 KDa) on the gel. These bands correspond well with the size of human insulin with the theoretical molecular weight (5.8 KDa).
