Applications of BBa_K2547000

We first synthesized the sequence of human carbonic anhydrase CA2, and then cloned it into the expression vector pET-30a(+), and identified the correctness of the obtained recombinant vector by restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2).

Induced expression of CA2-WT

The CA2-WT expression plasmid was transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3), and the cultured liquid was subjected to IPTG-induced CA2 expression, and the bacterial solution was sonicated, followed by SDS-PAGE and Western Blot(Fig. 3 and Fig. 4) .It shows that the size of CA2 is 30.6 kDa, which is compared with Marker. The position indicated by the arrow in the figure is the CA2 band. It can be seen from lanes 1 and 2 in the figure that the IPTG condition is significantly induced. The expression of CA2, and it can be seen from lanes 3-6, that the induced expression of CA2 is mainly expressed in a soluble form in the supernatant of the bacterial liquid.The above results indicate that we successfully obtained E. coli which expresses CA2.

Purification of CA2-WT

After confirming that CA2 can be induced by E. coli BL21 (DE3), we will further purify the crude protein extract by nickel column purification to obtain purified CA2 protein. The results in the figure (Figures 5 and 6) illustrate that we have obtained a higher purity CA2 protein.
