Abstract:

It was to intend to construct Pichia pastoris expression system of neuritin, to obtain large amount of active Neuritin protein and study its neurobiological function. Encoding cDNA sequence of neuritin was amplified by PCR, then the fragment was digested and ligated into shuttle vector pPIC9K. The neuritin-pPIC9K recombinant was transformed into E. coli DH5α, and was confirmed by PCR and sequencing. The recombinant was linearized by restriction enzyme Sal Ⅰ , and transformed into yeast GS115 by electric shock. After screening and identification, the Pichia pastoris expression system of neuritin was successfully constructed. Using methanol to induce the expression of neuritin, through SDSPAGE and Western blot analysis, we obtained Neuritin protein about 11 kD. The purified Neuritin protein was added into PC12 cell culture medium and it can promote the neurite growth of PC12 cell.

Key words: Neuritin pPIC9K, Pichia pastoris expression system, PC12 cell
