Embodiment 1

[0028] Example 1: Construction of recombinant Chi3L1 protein expression plasmid.

[0029] Synthesize the Chi3L1 gene (as shown in ESQ ID No.: 1) first, and then subclone it into the pRSET-A plasmid by using NdeI and HindIII restriction sites to obtain the pRSET-A-Chi3L1 expression plasmid. The specific construction process as follows:

[0030] (1). Enzyme digestion: the synthesized DNA fragment of Chi3L1 was digested with restriction endonucleases NheI and HindIII, and the pRSET-A empty shuttle plasmid was digested with corresponding endonucleases.

[0031] Table 1 enzyme digestion reaction system

[0032]

[0033] Reaction conditions: 37°C water bath for 2h. The above digested products were separated by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis to recover the target fragment, and the purified target DNA fragment was obtained using Agarose Gel DNA Extraction Kit.

[0034] (2). Ligation: Ligate the expression fragment of Chi3L1 digested with the pRSET-A vector.

[0035] Table 3 Con...

Embodiment 2

[0038] Example 2: This example describes the expression and purification method of recombinant Chi3L1 protein

[0039] The expression plasmid pRSET-A has a continuous encoding of 6 histidines (His 6 ) base sequence, therefore, the expressed polypeptide has His at the amino terminal 6 Marker for easy purification and identification of expressed proteins. The expression plasmid was transformed into BL21 competent bacteria. After overnight culture, shake culture in 100ml SOB medium at 1:50 at 37°C. When the OD450 was about 0.5, add IPTG with a final concentration of 0.5mM and continue to culture for 4h; , 4h respectively sample 1ml, centrifuge at 6000r / min for 5min, add 30μl Laemmli buffer solution to the precipitate, heat at 95°C for 5min, take 8μl by SDS-PAGE, Coomassie brilliant blue staining analysis shows that with the prolongation of induction time, at the position of relative molecular mass 42kD The nearby protein bands were gradually enhanced, and the protein expression...

Embodiment 3

[0041] Example 3: Recombinant Chi3L1 protein promotes macrophage M2 differentiation

[0042]Macrophages were treated with 1000 μg / ml purified Chi3L1 protein for 4 hours, the cells were collected, RNA was extracted, and the expression levels of macrophage differentiation-related genes were detected by RT-PCR after reverse transcription. The results showed that CD163, CD206 and other macrophage M2 The expression of differentiation-related genes was significantly increased, suggesting that the Chi3L1 recombinant protein can effectively promote the M2 differentiation of macrophages ( figure 2 ).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering, and in particular relates to a codon-optimized Chi3L1 (chitinase 3 sample 1) gene and its application. Background technique [0002] Chitin is an odorless and tasteless white amorphous substance that widely exists in nature, such as crustacean insects, crab shells, insect carapaces, and cell walls of bacteria and fungi. Chitin is a polymer substance with a molecular weight of up to 1×10 6 Above, insoluble in water, dilute acid, alkali, ethanol or other organic solvents. Chitinases and chitinase-like proteins belong to the glycosyl hydrolytic protein family18, they are widely distributed in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, both can bind chitin, the former has cleavage activity, while the latter does not. [0003] Chitinase 3-like 1 (Chi3L1), an important member of chitinase-like proteins, is an important regulator of innate immunity and acquired immunity, and is mainly secreted and expres...
