Cloning of GC-rich hTwist Preparation,and Charactirization of Fusion Protein

Objective To construct expression vector of fusion protein GST/TWIST with GC-enriched in Twist,induce expressly,and purify GST/TWIST fusion protein for further studies like GST Pulldown experiment.Methods The GC-rich Twist fragments were amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)with a strategy of ’multiple factors-employed together’ and cloned into the expression vector pGEX-5X-1.Recombinant vector of pGEX-5X-1-Twist was identified by restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing.The pGEX-5X-1-Twist recombinant was transformed into E.coli BL21,induced by IPTG.TWIST fusion protein was purified by glutathione beads.The purified product was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot.Results The GC-rich Twist recombinant pGEX-5X-1-Twist had been successfully constructed.A band corresponding to specific MW protein can be detected by SDS-PAGE after induction.After purification,fusion protein with high purity was harvested.Conclusion The full length gene fragments of human GC-rich Twist were successfully cloned into prokaryotic expression vector.The optimal conditions for inducing the target protein were confirmed and the GST/TWIST fusion protein with high purity was obtained.This study provided a basis for the further research on the biological function of TWIST protein.
