DNA sequencing indicates that the fragment is 729 base pairs in length and has 100% nucleotide homology with that of reported ApoA Ⅰ cDNA gene previously. The ApoA Ⅰ gene was cloned into pGEX 5X-1.The recombinant protein was expressed in E.coli DH5α, purified by glutathione-Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography and confirmed by SDS-PAGE. It was shown that the recombinant ApoA Ⅰ was expressed in E.coli, and the target protein amounted to 36% of total bacteria proteins. Cholesteryl ester transfer experiment showed that the recombinant ApoA Ⅰ was capable of promoting transfer of CE from HDL to LDL. Western blotting showed that the protein could react specifically with anti-ApoA Ⅰ antibodies.展开更多
