Popis: | A new chimeric geneApE1encoding the receptor-binding domain of the humanalpha-fetoprotein fused to a sequence of 22 glutamic acid residues was constructed. A new bacterial producer strainE. coliSHExT7 ApE1 was selected for ApE1 production in a soluble state. A simplified method was developed to purify ApE1 from bacterial biomass. It was shown that the new vector protein selectively interacts with AFP receptors on the tumor cell surface and can be efficiently accumulated in tumor cells. In addition, ApE1 was shown to be stable in storage and during its chemical modification. An increased number of carboxyl groups in the molecule allows the production of cytotoxic compound conjugates with higher drug-loading capacity and enhanced tumor targeting potential. |
