Problems solved by technology

Biological products derived from Escherichia coli and yeast systems need to be purified and processed before they can be used clinically, and the purification process requires necessary equipment support and expensive media, which increases the production cost of thymosin α1
At the same time, the problems of secondary pollution and purification reagents affecting the safety and biological activity of Thymosin α1 during processing are difficult to overcome
In particular, the recombinant protein produced by the microbial system is difficult to remove endotoxin contamination and the defects of protein modification in the yeast system are not yet overcome

Embodiment 1

[0112] 4×Tα1 gene synthesis and vector construction:

[0113] 1. Gene synthesis

[0114] The total length of the thymosin α1 (Tα1) gene synthesized according to plant-biased codon design and synthesis of the present invention is 124bp (including the linker consisting of protective bases and restriction sites), and the detailed sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO.1; after synthesis, it is connected pUC18 vector, namely pUC18-Tα1. According to the properties of XbaI and SpeI homologous enzymes, a linear quadruplex thymosin α1 gene (4×Tα1) was constructed by means of DNA recombination, and then ligated into pCAMBIA2300, namely pCA2300-4×Tα1.

Abstract

The invention discloses a 4*thymosin alpha1 gene sequence and a method for preparing transgenic tomato, which belongs to the field of gene engineering. The method comprises the following steps: a nucleotide sequence with bioactive thymosin alpha1 polypeptide is encoded according to a plant preferential codon, and has at least 75 percent of homology with a nucleotide sequence containing 16th to 408th nucleotides in SEQ ID NO.2; or the nucleotide sequence can be hybridized with the nucleotide sequence containing 16th to 408th nucleotides in the SEQ ID NO.2 under moderate stringent conditions. The invention also provides a method for expressing thymosin alpha1 functional protein by utilizing a plant system. A 4*T alpha1 gene expresses the important effect and application value of a product in improving the immunity of human bodies and preventing and treating human major diseases such as hepatitis, HIV, cancer and diabetes in eukaryotic cells.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a plant gene sequence and a transgenic method in the field of genetic engineering, in particular to a 4-connected thymosin α1 gene sequence and a method for preparing a transgenic tomato. Background technique [0002] Thymosin α1 (Thymosin α1, Tα1) is widely used clinically in the treatment of immunodeficiency, viral infection and autoimmune diseases, and has achieved great success in the treatment of hepatitis (HBV and HCV), AIDS (HIV), cancer (cancer) and diabetes (diabetes) a satisfactory effect. At present, the production of thymosin α1 mainly adopts tissue extraction, chemical synthesis and genetic engineering. Due to the limited source of tissue and the high cost of chemical synthesis, the clinical application of thymosin α1 is limited. The production of thymosin α1 by genetic engineering has potential, especially the production of thymosin α1 by plant system has obvious advantages in terms of safety and cost reduction....
