Problems solved by technology

(2) There are a large number of proteolytic enzymes in E. coli cells, which makes the expressed target protein easy to be degraded, especially small molecular proteins such as insulin, which have poorer stability
[0009] However, the currently used fusion protein technology fails to solve the following three outstanding technical problems in insulin production: (1) cannot significantly improve the denaturation and renaturation efficiency of proinsulin protein outside the cell; Design a specific enzyme cleavage site (a short peptide with a length of about 10 to 20 amino acids and a specific sequence) between the original (target protein) so that the target can be released by proteolytic digestion (such as thrombin, enterokinase) in the subsequent process protein
However, the cleavage of these enzymes usually results in the residue of some amino acids at the cleavage site, which affects the biological function of the target protein; and the enzymes used to excise these fusion tags generally have the problems of poor specificity and low cleavage efficiency; (3) Proinsulin after denaturation and refolding treatment still needs to go through a three-step enzyme cleavage reaction (ie fusion tag cutting enzyme, trypsin and carboxypeptidase) to obtain active insulin
Therefore, the process of industrial production of insulin is still very complicated, the production efficiency is very low, and the production cost has been high

Embodiment 1

[0042] Example 1 Design of Sumo-proinsulin fusion gene

[0043] Using pET-SUMO as the basic vector, design and construct the pET-SUMO-Proinsulin recombinant plasmid with Sumo tag ( figure 1 a) The plasmid includes the T7 promoter, Lac controller, proinsulin gene and Sumo gene coding region (SEQ ID No. 1).

[0044] In order to test the effect of the Sumo fusion tag on the expression of proinsulin in E. coli, a pET-Proinsulin plasmid (proinsulin) without the Sumo tag was constructed ( figure 1 b) The plasmid includes T7 promoter, Lac controller, and proinsulin gene coding region (SEQ ID No. 3). The specific method is as follows:

[0045] A DNA fragment with a full length of 357 bases (SEQ ID No. 2) was obtained by chemical synthesis. This fragment has EcoRI and HindIII endonuclease sites at the 5'and 3'ends, respectively. The middle sequence contains the 28 amino acids at the C-terminal of the compiled Sumo and the full length of human insulin (A chain + B chain + C peptide ) DNA seq...

Embodiment 2

[0046] Example 2 Induced expression of recombinant Sumo-proinsulin protein

[0047] The constructed recombinant plasmids of pET-Proinsulin and pET-SUMO-Proinsulin, which have been constructed and confirmed by DNA sequencing, were transferred into BL21(DE3) cells by traditional heat shock method, and single clones were selected and grown in LB medium at 37°C To OD 600 =0.5, then add 1mM IPTG to induce expression for 6 hours.

[0048] In order to compare the effect of Sumo fusion tag on the expression of proinsulin protein in E. coli, after the induction, the bacterial solution was centrifuged and the obtained large intestine was lysed, and then subjected to gel electrophoresis analysis. The results are shown in figure 2 . figure 2 In the middle, lane M represents the marker; lane 1 represents Pet-Sumo (positive control), with a relative molecular mass of 17kDa; lane 2 represents Pet-Insulin (C peptide), with a theoretical relative molecular mass of 9kDa, and the arrow indicates an ...

[0049] Example 3 Denaturation and renaturation of recombinant Sumo-proinsulin protein

[0050] After the induction in Example 2, the Escherichia coli expressing the recombinant Sumo-proinsulin protein was lysed, and the precipitate was collected to obtain insoluble inclusion bodies. At the same time, the supernatant and precipitate were analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the results are as follows image 3 Shown. image 3 Lane M indicates the marker; lane 1 indicates the uninduced E. coli lysate after transfer to the plasmid; lane 2 indicates the supernatant after the first wash with 1×PBS; lane 3 indicates the first time with 1×PBS Precipitation after washing; Lane 4 represents the supernatant after the second wash with 1×PBS; Lane 5 represents the precipitation after the second wash with 1×PBS; Lane 6 represents the supernatant after washing with washing solution; Lane 7 represents the supernatant after washing with washing solution precipitation. image 3 The resu...

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of recombinant human insulin. The preparation method comprises: inserting a nucleotide sequence shown in the formula of SEQ ID No. 2 into a position between EcoRI and HindIII enzyme sites of a pET-SUMO vector to obtain a recombinant plasmid, transferring the recombinant plasmid into a host strain, culturing the host strain in a medium at 18 to 37 DEG Cuntil OD600 of 0.5-0.7, carrying out induced expression, separating a Sumo-proinsulin fusion protein inclusion body, washing the Sumo-proinsulin fusion protein inclusion body through a buffer solution containing urea, carrying out centrifugation, taking precipitates, carrying out denaturation and gradient renaturation to obtain a renatured Sumo-proinsulin fusion protein, and carrying out one-stepdigestion renaturation on the Sumo-proinsulin fusion protein through Sumo protease, trypsin and carboxypeptidase B at pH of 6.0-8.0 at a digestion temperature of 16-37 DEG C for digestion time of 3-6h to obtain the recombinant human insulin.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of recombinant protein production, in particular to a method for preparing recombinant human insulin. Background technique [0002] Insulin is produced by human pancreatic islet β cells and is an important hormone used to regulate the body's carbohydrate and fat metabolism. As the first genetically engineered protein drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), recombinant human insulin has important uses and broad application prospects in the clinical treatment of diabetes. According to data from the World Health Organization, there are currently 420 million people with diabetes worldwide, and another 160 million people are in the pre-diabetes stage. In the next 20 years, the global demand for insulin consumption will increase from the current US$12 billion to US$54 billion. [0003] Insulin is a short peptide molecule consisting of 51 amino acids and a relative molecular mass of only 5808 Dalto...
