| 摘要: |
| 转录因子AtERF1属于ERF/AP2家族的B3亚家族,参与植物的防卫反应.根据密码子简并原理,用基因全合成的方法合成了满足大肠杆菌密码子嗜好的编码拟南芥AtERF1蛋白的碱基序列,并将其克隆到原核表达载体pET-29b.将表达载体AtERF1-pET-29b转入大肠杆菌BL21(DE3),用IPTG成功诱导表达了分子量约30kD的AtERF1蛋白,该蛋白主要以可溶性蛋白的形式存在.以该蛋白为抗原免疫家兔,制备出的多克隆抗体经免疫双扩散测定效价达1∶16,Western blot检测表明该抗血清与AtERF1蛋白识别良好.AtERF1抗体的制备为进一步从生化水平上研究AtERF1的功能奠定了良好基础. |

| Abstract: |
| AtERF1 encodes a member of the ERF subfamily B-3 of ERF/AP2 transcription factor family.It has been demonstrated almost every member of the B3 subgroup of AP2/ERF genes is involved in defense responses in Arabidopsis.Codon usage within a gene is a critical determinant of achievable protein expression level in E.coli. Gene optimization,therefore,is an effective method for synthetic genes with the aim of enhancing soluble expression,particular in heterologous hosts.In this paper,the AtERF1 protein of Arabidopsis thaliana was expressed in Escherichia coli using its optimized DNA sequence for E.coli. and yielded high level of soluble AtERF-1 protein in recombinant E.coli. The AtERF1 protein was used as an antigen to immune rabbits and obtains high titer antibodies.The immunological specificity of the polyclonal antibodies to AtERF1 was confirmed by Western blot assay.The prepared antibody in this work would facilitate the further functional investigation of AtERF1 in biochemical levels in Arabidopsis anther development. |
