Abstract Abstract Objective: To prepare and characterize streptavidin-tagged human interleukin-2 (SA-hIL2) fusion protein. Methods: pET24a-6His-SA-hIL2 plasmid was constructed and expressed in BL 21(DE3) host bacteria to generate fusion protein. The recombinant fusion protein SA-hIL2 was purified through the Ni-NTA affinity chromatography, and then refolded. The efficiency of surface modification of the fusion protein on the biotinylated B16.F10 tumor cells was evaluated by a flow cytometer. CCK-8 method was used to determine the proliferating effect of SA-hIL2 fusion protein on human peripheral-blood lymphocyte (PBL) cells stimulated by PHA. Results: The recombinant SA-hIL2 fusion protein was highly expressed in BL21(DE3) at up to 20% of total bacterial proteins. The fusion protein SA-hIL2 exhibited the bi-functionality: proliferation promoting activity of hIL-2 on PBL cells, and SA-mediated high-affinity binding to the biotinylated surface of B16.F10 cells with about 95% surface modification efficiency. Conclusion: SA-IL2 bi-functional fusion protein was generated, which will make feasible the development of hIL2-surtface-modified cancer cell vaccine.
