大肠杆菌常被用来大量快速制备重组蛋白质.但是,在原核表达目标蛋白质时非目标蛋白质经常会意外表达.有时这些非目标蛋白质也非常有使用价值,但是最终确认这些非目标蛋白质的过程昂贵又及其耗时.基于此,该文发展了一个新的基于二维核磁共振波谱技术、X-单晶衍射技术、结合其他生物化学方法,确认在原核表达神经限制性沉默因子NRSF/REST蛋白(该蛋白能够特异性识别神经限制性沉默因子RE1 dsDNA及神经限制性激活因子dsRNA,以调节神经元干细胞的发育)功能结构域ZnF2-8时非目标蛋白b-内酰胺酶(b-lactamase).

Escherichia coli (E. coli) is often used to produce recombinant proteins rapidly with high yield. However, the bacteria expresses non-target proteins unexpectedly in many cases, some of which may later be proven useful. Full characterization of these unpredicted proteins are usually expensive and time-consuming. In this study, we used E. coli to express neuron- restrictive silencer factor/RE1-silencing transcription factor (NRSF/REST) functional motif ZnF2-8, which is involved in the interaction of NRSF/REST with neuron-restrictive silencer element (NRSE/RE1) dsDNA or small non-coding dsRNA for neuron gene transcriptional repression or activation. Overexpression of a non-target protein was observed. Two-dimensional 1H-15N HSQC NMR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography and other biochemical assays were used in combination to characterize the non-target protein to be b-lactamase.
