Abstract To clone human truncated TGF-β receptor II(tTGF-βRⅡ)and express it in Escherichia coli. The gene tTGF-βRⅡ,obtained by PCR was cloned into the vector pGEX4T3 to construct a fusion expression plasmid.The recombinant protein GST-tTGF-βRⅡ were expressed in soluble form, purified by Glutathione-Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography and cleaved by thrombin to release tTGF-βRⅡ. Purification of tTGF-βRⅡ was achieved by affinity chromatography. SDS-PAGE indicated that fusion protein GST- tTGF-βRⅡ was secreted as a protein of around 37.0 KDa and aimed protein tTGF-βRⅡwas 11.0 KDa. The GST-tTGF-βRⅡand tTGF-βRⅡ protein were confirmed by Western blot analysis. The purification of aimed protein was biologically active in a validated inhibited human fibroblast proliferation bioassay.
