| Abstract: | AIM: To clone and express mouse canstatin (m canstatin) cDNA and provide a basis for the further research on its anti-angiogenic activity and potential application for cancer therapy. METHODS: Total RNA was extracted from mouse liver tissue by Trizol Reagent, and mouse canstatin cDNA was amplified by RT- PCR, then cloned into vector pMD18-T for sequencing. pET30a(+)-m canstatin recombinant plasmid was constructed and expressed in E.coli BL21 with induction of IPTG. RESULTS: Mouse canstatin cDNA is 684 bp coding 227 amino acids. The sequences of both cDNA and amino acid share high homology with human canstatin, with cDNA identity at 89% and amino acids identity at 96% to human canstatin. In the present study, pET30a(+)-m canstatin recombinant plasmid was expressed in E.coli BL21. CONCLUSION: Mouse canstatin cDNA has been cloned for the first time. Constructed pET30a(+)-m canstatin recombinant plasmid is highly expressed in E.coli BL21. |
