Embodiment 1

[0047] Example 1, Escherichia coli host construction expressing the acetylase of halophilic archaea

[0048] 1. Design and synthesis of the acetylase ssArd1 gene of halophilic archaea

[0049] According to the amino acid sequence reported in the literature (Dale T.Mackay, Catherine H.Botting, Garry L.Taylor and Malcolm F.White. An acetylase with relaxed specificity catalysesprotein N-terminal acetylation in Sulfolobus solfataricus. Molecular Microbiology, 2007, 64: 1540-1548 ) and the partial tropism of Escherichia coli gene codons, the following gene sequence was designed and sent to Shanghai Sangon Bioengineering Technology Service Co., Ltd. for synthesis. The synthetic ssArd1 gene sequence has NdeI and HindIII restriction sites added on both sides respectively, and the specific sequence is shown in sequence 1 (the 4th-501st nucleotide sequence at the 5' end of sequence 1 in the sequence listing is the coding sequence) , the encoded amino acid sequence is shown in Sequence ...

[0121] Example 2, Preparation of recombinant N-terminal acetylated Tα1

[0122] Tα1 has a small molecular weight and is difficult to express directly in cells, and needs to be fused with other protein genes. In order to obtain the complete structure of Tα1, the fusion protein needs to be cleaved. The cleavage method can adopt enzymatic cleavage method, chemical cleavage method, and intein-mediated cleavage method. This example describes the use of intein cleavage to obtain N-terminal acetylated thymosin Tα1.

[0168] Tβ4 has a small molecular weight and is difficult to express directly in cells, and needs to be fused with other protein genes. To obtain the complete structure of Tβ4, the fusion protein needs to be cleaved.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and special engineering bacteria for producing N-terminal acetyl protein or polypeptide. The recombinant engineering bacteria capable of expressing transferase of archaebacteria on chromosomes are obtained by integrating the expression box of the transferase of archaebacteria onto the chromosomes of a host; the expression box for expressing the transferase of archaebacteria comprises a promoter and an archaebacteria transferase gene connected with the downstream of the promoter; and the nucleotide sequence of the archaebacteria transferase gene is represented by the sequence No.1 in a sequence list, and the amino acid sequence of the archaebacteria transferase gene is represented by a sequence No.2 in a sequence table. The engineering bacteria of the invention can directly produce complete N-terminal acetyl protein or polypeptide, such as thymosin extrasin alpha 1 and thymosin extrasin beta 4, the drawback of incompetence of acetylation or partial acetylation in a conventional genetic engineering technique is overcome, the production of N-terminal acetyl thymosin extrasin by the genetic engineering technique is realized completely, and the method and the special engineering bacteria are very practical.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing N-terminal acetylated polypeptide, especially thymosin and special engineering bacteria. Background technique [0002] Acetylation is a widespread protein modification method that exists in prokaryotes, archaea, and eukaryotes. About 80-90% of mammalian cytoplasmic proteins, 50% of yeast proteins, and a small amount of prokaryotic or archaeal proteins will Acetylation occurs (Polevoda B, Sherman F. The diversity of acetylated proteins. Genome Biology, 2002, 3: 1-6). [0003] Acetylation modification has effects on the activity and stability of some proteins, such as enzyme activity, enzyme stability, DNA binding, protein-protein interaction, receptor recognition, etc. In some cases, lack of acetylation results in decreased protein thermal stability or changes in other kinetic parameters, or inefficient complex assembly. The acetylation modification of proteins in yeast cells is related to cell growth, u...
