Popis: | Soluble recombinant human fibroblast collagenase catalytic domain was highly expressed and purified from Escherichia coli. The expression construct utilized the T7 gene 10 promoter for transcription of a two-cistron messenger RNA which encoded the ubiquitin-collagenase catalytic domain fusion protein as the second cistron. The ubiquitin domain was attached to the collagenase catalytic domain with the linker sequences Gly-Gly-Thr-Gly-Asp-Val-Ala-Gln (wild type) or Gly-Gly-Thr-Gly-Asp-Val-Gly-His (mutant) which served as cleavage sites for in vitro activation. The last four residues of the linker were included based on the crystal structure of human prostromelysin-1 catalytic domain. Soluble fusion proteins purified from E. coli retained the proteolytic activity of the collagenase catalytic domain. The collagenase catalytic domain was released by either autoproteolytic or stromelysin-1-catalyzed cleavage, purified to homogeneity, and separately possess Phe-81, Val-82, or Leu-83 as the amino-terminal residue. Very similar kcat/Km values were determined for the Phe-81 and Val-82 forms using continuous fluorogenic and chromogenic peptide cleavage assays. |
