The invention belongs to the fields of
gene technology and
pharmacy, and discloses a highly expressed human source (Homosapiens) PARP-2 catalytic domain
mutant protein and an application thereof. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out
sequence alignment on PARP-2 catalytic structural domains of a human source and a mouse source, and designing a
mutant. According to the present invention, the Tm value of the
mutant catPARP-2SE (the codon of the
nucleotide sequence is optimized, and the 349TELQSP354 is mutated to 349SERQGL354) is determined by using a differential scanning
fluorescence method (
Diffraction ScanningFluorometry), and the Tm value of the mutant catPARP-2SE is increased by about 1.11 DEG C, wherein the codon of the
nucleotide sequence is optimized, and the 349TELQSP354 is mutated to 349SERQGL354; compared with a
wild type, the mutant has the advantages that the
thermal stability is enhanced, the expression quantity in an Escherichiacoli
system is improved by more than four times, and the
enzyme level activity evaluation and
protein crystallization experiment of the
PARP inhibitor are favorably carried out. The
protein crystallization temperature is increased to 25 DEG C from 4 DEG C, so that the difficulty of obtaining a protein-ligand
compound structure is greatly reduced, and the PARP-2 inhibitor design based on a
protein structure is favorably developed. The catPARP-2SE has two characteristics of high expression quantity and
crystallization in an environment close to
room temperature, and can be applied to discovery of PARP-2 selective / non-selective inhibitors or PARP family other
subtype selective inhibitors.
