The invention provides recombinant III-type collagen as well as a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of bioengineering. On the basis of human-derived III-type collagen COL3A1, an
amino acid sequence suitable for efficient expression of
pichia pastoris is obtained after optimization design and screening, a
recombinant expression vector is provided on the basis, and recombinant
engineering bacteria are constructed. The recombinant III-type micromolecular collagen is successfully expressed by adopting the constructed recombinant
engineering bacteria, and the invention further provides a preparation method of the recombinant III-type micromolecular collagen. According to the present invention, the efficient expression of the recombinant III-type micromolecule collagen in the
yeast is achieved, and the recombinant III-type micromolecule collagen has characteristics of high stability, and no significant degradation under different pH conditions, repeated freezing and thawing treatment, and different temperature and
time duration treatment; the main band accounts for 90% or above in the
fermentation stage, the purification difficulty is low, the
sponge purity is 95% or above, and the
cell adhesion activity is excellent while the stability is high.
