Problems solved by technology

Although different DNA can be translated into the same amino acid, the speed of protein production (translation speed) is not constant, and it will be slower in some segments. This phenomenon is called translation pause (translational pause or translational attenuation) translation pause The point is highly related to protein folding. If the translation pause site is incorrect, the slow place is fast, or the fast place is slow, it will lead to misfolding and aggregation of proteins, and it is impossible to obtain functional soluble proteins.

Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for improving protein soluble expression through rational translation pause sequence redesigning. The method comprises the following steps: according to a protein structure, determining an existing position of a translation pause site; carrying out mutation of a slow translation codon outside a translation pause range into a high frequency codon having the same amino acids; and carrying out same sense mutation in the translation pause range according to selection of 2-6 codons, and producing the translation pause site. According to the method, on the premise of no change of the protein amino acid sequence, a nucleotide sequence for encoding protein is redesigned so as to enhance soluble expression efficiency. In addition, the method has characteristics of wide applicability and great prospect potential.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a protein expression optimization method, in particular to a method for improving protein soluble expression through rational redesign of translation pause sequence. Background technique [0002] In protein engineering, people clone genes into host expression systems (such as bacteria or eukaryotic cell lines) and induce their expression to produce the desired protein. However, heterologous genes often cannot be well expressed when cloned into host cells, the yield is very low, or the inclusion body does not function normally, and the reason is that there is a problem with protein folding in most cases. [0003] To solve the problem of protein misfolding in heterologous expression, one of the traditional ideas is inclusion body refolding, that is, using a strong denaturant to dissolve and denature the inclusion body, and then remove the denaturant under controlled conditions, in order to refold the protein under suitable soluti...
