Abstract

The present invention relates to the field of medicinal bioengineering technology and is a recombinant thymin alpha-1, that is Gly-T alpha-1, and its preparation method. The gene engineering process to prepare Gly-T alpha-1 includes PCR to amplify gene segment with 5'-GGGGATCCGACGCAGCCGTAGAC-3' as upstream primer, 5'-GGGAATTCTTATTTTCTGCCTCTTCCAC-3' as downstream primer and human placenta CDNA as template, EcoRI / BamHI double enzyme incision for directional cloning of destination gene to pGEX-4T-1 to constitue fused expression vector pGEX-4T-1 / T alpha-1. The prepared engineering bacterium can express glutathion S-transferase- thymin alpha-1 fusion protein and affinity chromatography purified fusion protein, and thrombase incision releases Gly-T alpha-1, which is finally purified by the affinity chromatography and ion exchange chromatography.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical bioengineering, and relates to a recombinant thymosin α1 and a preparation method thereof. Background technique: [0002] Thymosin α1 (thymosin α1, referred to as Tα1) is a polypeptide composed of 28 amino acid residues, which has immune activity and is mostly used clinically to treat viral hepatitis. The amino acid sequence of native Tα1 is NH 2 -Ser-Asp-Ala-Ala-Val-Asp-Thr-Ser-Ser-Glu-Ile-Thr-Thr-Lys-Asp-Leu-Lys-Glu-Lys-Lys-Glu-Val-Val-Glu-Glu -Ala-Glu-Asn-COOH, N-terminus is acetylated [Goldstein A L, Low TL, McAdoo M, McClure J, Thurman GB, Rossio J, Lai C Y, Chang D, Wang S S, Harvey C, Ramel A H, Meienhofer. J. Thymosin alpha 1: isolation and sequence analysis of an immunological active thymic peptide. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 1977, 74(2): 725-729]. At present, there is only one source of Tα1 monomer, which is fully synthesized by solid phase synthesis, which is costly and easy to cause e...
