pET29a(+)-TRn5

In order to obtain proteins with self-healing properties, we used the pET29a(+) vector to express TRn5 ( BBa_K5398001) ). We tried different strategies for TRn5 protein production and purification and tested its function.

In order to obtain proteins with self-healing properties, we used the pET29a(+) vector to express TRn5 ( BBa_K5398001) ). We tried different strategies for TRn5 protein production and purification and tested its function.

Protein expression

We expressed the protein in E.coli BL21 (DE3) using LB medium. After incubation at 37℃ for 5 h and 30℃ for 9 h, respectively, we found that most TRn5 (17.58 kDa) existed in precipitation and the TRn5 expression level at two temperatures had little difference (Fig. 1).

Protein purification

Fig. 1 SDS-PAGE of expression products of TRn5.

Then, we purified TRn5 by Immobilized Metal Affinity Chromatography (IMAC). However, the TRn5 expression level was too low to verify by SDS-PAGE (Fig. 2).

Lane 1: marker; lanes 2 to 11, induced cell sample at 23℃; lane 2: pellet; lane 3: sample washed with denaturing buffer with 8 mM urea; lane 4: sample after dialysis overnight; lane 5: sample after being bound to Ni-NTA resin; lane 6: sample eluted with 20 mM Tris-HCl; lane 7: sample eluted with 20 mM imidazole; lane 8: sample eluted with 50 mM imidazole; lane 9: sample eluted with 150 mM imidazole; lane 10: sample eluted with 300 mM imidazole; lane 11: sample eluted with 500 mM imidazole.


To optimize the TRn5 expression, we reviewed plenty of literature, from which we found that TRn5 could easily be dissolved in 5% acetic acid (pH≈3) due to the existence of Histidine. Thus, we used a new protocol to obtain the purified TRn5. Solubilized in 5% acetic acid, the band of TRn5 was seen clearly, which means success of this purification manner (Fig. 3).
