In order to construct a prokaryotic expression vector of human receptor syt II N-fragment and to express recombinant MBP-Syt fusion protein in E.coli and to purify and identify its activity. According to codon preference of E.coli, a DNA fragment encoding human syt II N-fragment was synthesized, and then cloned into prokaryotic vector pMAL-c2x for sequencing. Then the recombinant plasmid pMAL-Syt was introduced into E.coli ER2566 by transformation for expression and the obtained engineered bacteria were induced by IPTG. The fusion protein was purified by amylose resin affinity chromatography and identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. The binding activity of the protein was determined by ELISA. It is concluded that MBP-Syt protein is of good binding activity.
