Embodiment 1

[0048] Embodiment 1 utilizes lettuce system to produce green fluorescent protein (GFP)

[0049] Tissue and Agrobacterium tumefaciens preparation:

[0050] Mature lettuces (red leaves, green leaves and long leaves) were purchased from a local vegetable store and cultivated under a standard growing lamp for 12 hours; or the lettuce seeds were cultivated without soil as shown in Figure 2(B). The binary plant vector pCambia1302 (containing GFP, figure 1 ) Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA 4404 was inoculated into 0.5L YEB (yeast extract broth, 5g / L sucrose, 5g / L tryptone, 6g / L yeast extract, 0.24g / L MgSO 4 , pH7.2) and supplement antibiotic liquid medium (50mg / L kanamycin). The inoculated culture was incubated in a shaker (220 rpm) at 25-28°C for 72h. The OD600 value was measured and adjusted to 3.5-4.5 by adding YEB medium. Then the culture solution was collected and centrifuged (4500 rpm) for 10 min. Resuspend Agrobacterium cells in osmotic medium (10mM MES, 10mM MgSO 4...

Embodiment 2

[0061] Embodiment 2 utilizes lettuce system to produce lumbrokinase

[0062] Plant expression constructs:

[0063] Based on the full-length PI239DNA sequence of GenBank (Accession no: AF433650), we ligated the restriction site XbaI site to the 5' end of PI239, and added a BamH1 site to the 3' end of the fragment, provided by GenscriptInc (Piscataway, NJ, USA) and cloned into the pUC57 vector to obtain the cloning vector pUC-Lum. The fragment PI239 was isolated from pUC-Lum by KpnI / SacI, and cloned into the plant binary vector pCam35S (preserved in our laboratory) to generate the plant expression vector p35-Lum. The plant expression vector p35-Lum was subsequently electroporated into Agrobacterium tumefaciens BA4404 by Multiporator (Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany) for subsequent transient expression assays in lettuce. The size of the purified recombinant lumbrokinase protein was observed by SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis.

Embodiment 3

[0071] Control group: using tobacco leaves to produce green fluorescent protein and lumbrokinase;

[0072] Experimental group: lettuce provided by the invention produces green fluorescent protein and lumbrokinase;

[0073] Table 1 Green fluorescent protein and lumbrokinase

[0074]

[0075] * Compared with the control group, P≤0.05; # Compared with the control group, P≤0.01;

[0076] It can be seen from Table 1 that compared with the tobacco leaf system of the control group, lettuce transiently expresses green fluorescent protein and lumbrokinase, which significantly (P≤0.05) shortens the production cycle, significantly (P≤0.05) increases the protein content, and significantly (P≤0.05) increases the protein content. 0.05) improves the protein activity, simplifies the difficulty of protein purification, and significantly (P≤0.01) reduces the production cost.

[0077] Based on the above test results, the plant system, especially the lettuce system is a more economical and...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of biology, in particular to application of lettuce as a host in expressing protein and / or polypeptide. Lettuce is utilized to momentarily express protein capable of generating high content in a short time (4d). The biological safety problem is reduced to maximum extent, and lettuce is basically free of plant toxic substance and little in fiber, thereby being conducive to purification of downstream protein.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to the application of lettuce as a host in expressing proteins and / or polypeptides. Background technique [0002] Plants have been studied for nearly three decades as expression and production systems for pharmaceutical proteins. In addition to advantages such as low cost and high yield, plant-based expression systems also reduce the risk of human and animal pathogens spreading to humans from the process of protein production. Furthermore, plant eukaryotic protein inner membrane expression systems and secretion pathways are similar to mammalian cells. The plant expression system can produce large molecular weight and multi-subunit pharmaceutical proteins in large quantities, and is much better than the prokaryotic expression system, such as the E. coli expression system. For example, post-translational modifications, glycosylated proteins, and monoclonal antibodies that require assemb...
