The production of strains highly expressing human interleukin-2 cDNA
1994
The plasmid pTLIL-2, which only directed a low-level expression of human interleukin 2(IL-2) cDNA in E. coli, was reconstructed: a series of deletions were made in 3′ non-coding region of human IL-2 cDNA, and 7 recombinant plasmids with different deletions were selected, on the other hand, a Tac promoter sequence from pDR540 was inserted to upstream of IL-2 cDNA in pTLIL-2 so that pTLIL-2DT, which contains double Tac promoters, was constructed. And then, E. coli JM103 was transformed with the above 8 recombinant plasmids respectively. The expression efficiency of IL-2 cDNA in E. coli transformed with different plasmids was evaluated by means of SDS-PAGE and measuring3H-TdR incorporation of IL-2-dependent activated T lymphocytes in the presence of bacterial extracts. Three engineering strains with high efficiency of IL-2 expression were selected, and all of these strains could produce recombinant IL-2(rIL-2) 4 times more than E. coil JM103/pTLIL-2.
