摘要
Myostatin (MSTN) is a potent negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth in mammalian species, and its activity is inhibited by MSTN prodomain, the N-terminal part of proMSTN cleaved during post-translational MSTN processing. In fish, MSTN also appears to suppress fish muscle growth with its activity being inhibited by prodomain. The objective of this study was to produce bioactive MSTN-1 prodomain of rockfish (S. schlegeli), a commercial aquaculture species in East Asia, in E. coli using maltose binding protein (MBP) as a fusion partner. Rockfish MSTN-1 prodomain (sMSTN1pro) cDNA was cloned into the pMALc2x vector, and proteins (MBP-sMSTN1pro) were expressed in Rosetta-gami 2(DE3)pLysS cells by IPTG induction. The MBP-sMSTN1pro was expressed in soluble forms, and affinity purified using amylose resin. The affinity purified MBP-sMSTN1pro suppressed MSTN activity in vitro. The results suggest that MBP is probably a useful fusion partner in producing bioactive MSTN prodomains of various animal species in E. coli.
