AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] In the past, the in vitro expression of tyrosinase protein was mostly carried out in Escherichia coli, but the expression in Escherichia coli has problems such as easy formation of insoluble inclusion bodies and inability to glycosylate, and because of the use of plasmid expression, the fermentation process needs to add expensive Antibiotics and IPTG, etc., greatly increase the cost of fermentation
There are also attempts to use other eukaryotic expression systems to express tyrosinase, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, but there are also many problems such as over-glycosylation or under-glycosylation, and harsh culture conditions.

Abstract

The invention discloses a human tyrosinase expression vector and its application, the purpose of which is to provide a human tyrosinase expression vector and the recombinant Pichia pastoris cells introduced into the vector and use the recombinant cells to produce human Tyrosinase method. The human tyrosinase expression vector is a Pichia pastoris expression vector containing human tyrosinase gene and His-tag gene. The method for expressing human tyrosinase comprises the steps of cultivating recombinant Pichia pastoris cells, inducing and expressing human tyrosinase with methanol, and separating and purifying human tyrosinase by using metal affinity chromatography. The human tyrosinase gene expression vector of the present invention integrates the human tyrosinase gene into the genome of Pichia pastoris cells through homologous recombination, stably expresses human tyrosinase, and does not need to be used in the fermentation process Expensive antibiotics and IPTG greatly reduce production costs. In addition, the high-density growth of Pichia pastoris is also conducive to the expression of human tyrosinase, and the expression level can reach 0.39g / L.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a human tyrosinase expression vector and its application, in particular to a human tyrosinase expression vector and recombinant Pichia pastoris cells introduced into the vector and the production of human tyrosinase by using the recombinant cells Acidase method. Background technique [0002] Human tyrosinase (EC 1.14.18.1) is the key enzyme for the synthesis of melanin in the human body. It can catalyze the first two steps of the melanin formation reaction, that is, the first step is the hydroxylation of tyrosine to form dopa, and the second step Dopa is oxidized to dopaquinone. Then, in the amelanosomes of melanocytes, dopaquinone further reacts to generate cysteine ​​acyl melanin, and polymerizes to form apomelanin; while in the eumelanosomes of melanocytes, dopaquinone Eumelanin is formed under the action of tyrosinase and its related proteins. [0003] The human tyrosinase gene was first successfully cloned by Kw...
