A cDNA fragment encoding AMEG1 protein（amino acid residues 643-926） was amplified by PCR and then cloned into the pT7-7 vector. Both soluble and insoluble recombinant AMEG1 proteins were observed after induction by IPTG. Soluble AMEG1 was purified via two chromatographic steps, and the purified enzyme was characterized. With para-nitrophenylphosphate（pNPP） as a substrate, AMEG1 exhibited typical enzymatic characteristics of classic PTPs and classical Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Insoluble AMEG1, which was mainly distributed in the inclusion body of E. coli cells extracts, was purified by preparative electrophoresis gel for the preparation of the polyclonal antibody. A rabbit was immunized with AMEG1 purified by preparative electrophoresis to generate anti-AMEG1 antibody. Anti-serum was collected on 28th day after initial injection and purified via affinity chromatography. The purified polyconal antibody displayed a satisfactory titer and sensitivity.展开更多
