Popis: | Interleukin 1beta (IL-1beta) is a potent stimulator of extracellular matrix degradation in models of osteoarthritis (OA). In contrast to bovine explant models which effectively respond to recombinant human IL-1beta, canine models are relatively refractory to human IL-1beta stimulation. Canine IL-1beta cDNA was cloned in order to produce a fully potent species matched preparation of IL-1beta for use specifically in canine models of OA. Established methods for the production of various orthologous IL-1beta proteins from different species are problematic due to the exquisite sensitivity of the mature IL-1beta product to N-terminal variations and the intrinsic technical challenges associated with producing an unmodified product. We have applied a seamless method of SUMO tagging and removal in order to produce a homogeneous unmodified preparation of canine IL-1beta from Escherichia coli which was found to be a potent inducer of aggrecanase activity in isolated canine articular chondrocytes. This method combines highly efficient aspects of seamless plasmid engineering, protein purification, and precise tag removal. |
