Abstract
For structure analysis of peptides by multinuclear NMR, stable isotope-labeled samples are required. A direct over-expression system by E. coli cells does not work for that purpose because of rapid degradation of the peptides and/or the mRNA in host cells. We here developed an over-expression system by means of thioredoxin gene fusion system. The fused protein composed of thioredoxin and the objective peptide was expressed in E. coli and then the peptide part was released by enterokinase. This system was successfully applied for the production of 15N-labeled human adrenocorticotropic hormone fragment (ACTH-(1-24)) as needed for multinuclear NMR analysis.Keywords
