Problems solved by technology

Although some achievements have been made in the study of urokinase inhibitors, the mechanism of the interaction between urokinase and inhibitors is still unclear
In addition, an ideal urokinase inhibitor as an anti-metastatic drug should not affect the activities of t-PA and plasmin when inhibiting urokinase, while natural urokinase inhibitors such as PAI-1 and PAI-2, etc. Kinase also strongly inhibits the activity of t-PA, so it is not suitable as an anti-metastatic drug

Embodiment 2

[0021] Example 2 Cloning of the target gene

[0022] Cloning of mutants in the catalytic domain of urokinase: the product was recovered by PCR, digested overnight with restriction endonuclease Xho I, and recovered by ethanol precipitation; similarly digested with restriction endonuclease Xho I to linearize Pichia pastoris expression vector pPICZαA, and remove Phosphorylated, gel recovery kit to recover linearized products. Mix the product recovered by PCR with the dephosphorylated plasmid pPICZαA, inactivate it with T4 DNA ligase, overnight at 16°C, and inactivate at 65°C for 5 minutes; take 1.5 μl of the linker and mix it with the pre-cooled competent cell TOP10F', discharge at 2.5kV, and electric shock , add 1 ml of SOC solution, incubate at 37°C for 1 hour, take 200 μl coated LB plate (25 μg / ml Zeocin), incubate at 37°C for 14 hours, select colonies, culture, small amount of recombinant plasmid extraction, enzyme digestion identification, enzyme Correctly identified clones...

Embodiment 3

[0023] Example 3 Expression and purification of mutant proteins

[0024] Expression and purification of recombinant plasmids in Pichia pastoris X-33: linearized recombinant plasmids were electrotransformed into yeast X-33 strains, coated with 100 μg / ml Zeocin YPDS plates, colonies were picked, genomes were extracted, and identified by PCR. The correct recombinant expression was induced by adding methanol at a final concentration of 0.5% every day, and the culture fluid was fermented for 4 days, and the supernatant was obtained by centrifugation, and the molecular weight was checked by 12% SDS-PAGE electrophoresis. Strains with high expression were expanded and cultured, induced by methanol for 4 days, and the supernatant was diluted to 1-fold volume and passed through a cation rapid exchange column SPFF pre-equilibrated with 20mM pH6.5 potassium phosphate buffer solution, 20mM pH6.5 potassium phosphate buffer solution (containing 0.5M chloride Sodium chloride) was eluted, and ...

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the fields of medicine, biotechnology and structural biology. Background technique: [0002] Urokinase is a serine protease that plays an important regulatory role in a series of physiological and pathological processes, such as: activation of plasminogen, migration of inflammatory cells, healing and remodeling of wounds, growth of trophoblast cells, etc. In recent years, research on the physiological activity of urokinase has mainly focused on cancer metastasis. Studies have shown that most cancer cells related to the epithelium can produce urokinase and transport it to the cell surface, thereby triggering a series of proteolytic reactions, resulting in the invasion and spread of cancer cells. The use of urokinase inhibitors to inhibit the activity of urokinase has been It is recognized as an effective method to inhibit the invasion and metastasis of tumor cells, and then achieve the purpose of controlling and treating tumor...
