Expression and Purification of Functionally Active Recombinant Human Alpha 1-Antitrypsin in Methylotrophic Yeast Pichia pastoris
نویسندگان
چکیده
Human alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) cDNA was obtained from HepG2 cell lines. After PCR and construction of expression vector pPICZα-AAT, human AAT was expressed in the yeast Pichia pastoris (P.pastoris) in a secretary manner and under the control of inducible alcohol oxidase 1 (AOX1) promoter. The amount of AAT protein in medium was measured as 60 mg/l 72 hr after induction with methanol. Results indicated the presence of protease inhibitory function of the protein against elastase. Purification was done using His-tag affinity chromatography. Due to the different patterns of glycosylation in yeast and human, the recombinant AAT showed different SDS-PAGE patterns compared to that of serum-derived AAT while pI shifted from 4.9 in native AAT compared to 5.2 in recombinant AAT constructed in this study.

Background: Bovine follicle-stimulating hormone (bFSH) is a heterodimer hormone that consists of a common -subunit which noncovalently associated with the hormone-specific -subunit. During the past 15 years, the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris has become an important host organism for recombinant protein production because it is able to use methanol as a sole carbon and energy source. Th...

Phytic acid is the dominant form of phosphorous in plant seeds. However, phytic acid cannot beutilized by animals and causes them serious phosphate deficiency. Utilization of phytase as ananimal feed additive can affect liberation of phosphor and its mineral availability. In this study,heterologous expression of the A. niger phyA gene was investigated in the methylotrophic yeastsP. pastoris and...

Background: Human alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) is a potent inhibitor of multiple serine proteases, and protects tissues against their harmful effects. Individuals with reduced or abnormal production of this inhibitor need intravenous administration of exogenous protein. In this study, we employed the methylotrophic (methanol utilizing) yeast Pichia pastoris (P. pastoris) as a preferential host for...
