| Popis: | Background Although Escherichia coli has been widely used for the expression of exogenous proteins, the secretory expression in this system is still a big obstacle. As one of the most important secretion pathways, hemolysin A (HlyA) system of E. coli can transport substrates directly from the cytoplasm to extracellular medium without the formation of any periplasmic intermediate, making it an ideal candidate for the development of the secretory production platform for exogenous proteins. Results In this work, we developed a novel production platform, THHly, based on the HlyA secretion system, and explored its applications in the efficient preparation and quick detection of tag peptides and anti-microbial peptides. In this novel platform the signal sequence of HlyA is fused to the C-terminal of target peptide, with Tobacco Etch Virus (TEV) protease cleavage site and 6*His tag between them. Five tag peptides displayed good secretory properties in E. coli BL21 (DE3), among which T7 tag and S tag were obtained by two rounds of purification steps and TEV cleavage, and maintained their intrinsic immunogenicity. Furthermore, Cecropin A and Melittin, two different types of widely explored anti-microbial peptides, were produced likewise and verified to possess anti-microbial/anti-tumor bioactivities. No significant bacterial growth inhibition was observed during the fusion protein expression, indicating that the fusion form not only mediated the secretion but also decreased the toxicity of anti-microbial peptides (AMPs) to the host bacteria. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report to achieve the secretory expression of these two AMPs in E. coli with considerable potential for manufacturing and industrialization purposes. Conclusions The results demonstrate that the HlyA based novel production platform of E. coli allowed the efficient secretory production and purification of peptides, thus suggesting a promising strategy for the industrialized production of peptide pharmaceuticals or reagents.
