Abstract

The expression of the cloned Saccharomyces cerevisiae antioxidant protein gene in E. coil on plasmid was studied. Introduction of the DNA encoding yeast thiol-specific antioxidant protein into expression vector, PKK 223-3, having the tac promoter resulted in the production in E. coil of a Mr 27,000 polypeptide. This protein represented as much as about 1% of the bacterial soluble protein and showed the thiol-specific antioxidant properties. The bacterial protein showed physico-chemical properties indistringuishable from those of the yeast protein.

발현 Vector인 pKK223-3를 이용하여 효모 Thiol-Specific Antioxidant단백질 유전자를 대장균에 도입시켜 이 단백질을 발현시켰다. 이 단백질은 대장균 단백질의 약 1% 정도로 발현되었으며, 물리 및 화학적 특성은 효모의 것과 동일한 특성을 보였다.
