Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a method for preparing genetic engineering N-acetylated thymosin alpha1. The method comprises the following steps of: 1) preparing precursor proteins or polypeptides containing a polypeptide sequence of the N-acetylated thymosin alpha1 by genetic engineering escherichia coli; and 2) performing restriction enzyme digestion of the precursor proteins or polypeptides containing the polypeptide sequence of the N-acetylated thymosin alpha1, obtained by the step 1, by endopeptidase, and then purifying the products to obtain the N-acetylated thymosin alpha1. The method has the advantages of obtaining an expression level of the N-acetylated thymosin alpha1, simplifying cutting, facilitating the purification of the N-acetylated thymosin alpha1, improving the production efficiency of the N-acetylated thymosin alpha1, having wide clinical application prospect, along with low cost and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing genetic engineering N-acetylated thymosin α1. Background technique [0002] Thymosin α is a family of immunomodulatory polypeptides with the same or similar N-terminal sequence, including prothymosin α, thymosin α1 and thymosin α11. Among them, thymosin α1 and thymosin α11 are the degradation products of prothymosin α in vivo. The N-terminal of thymosin α from natural sources has N-acetylation modification, and N-acetylation modification plays an important role in the stability of thymosin α1 in vivo. N-acetylated thymosin α1 synthesized by chemical method is already on the market, and its trade name is "Ridaxian", which is used for the treatment of viral hepatitis, etc. However, the chemical synthesis of N-acetylated thymosin α1 is costly and highly polluting, which restricts the widespread use of the drug. The use of genetically engineered Escherichia coli to prepare polypeptides has the advantages o...
