abstractsObjective To construct prokaryotic expression vector of glutathione-S-transferase ( GST) -tagged human high mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) and to screen its high affinity binding fused-peptide by phage display technique. Methods Human HMGB1 cDNA gene was amplified by RT-PCR and cloned into vector pGEX4T-1 and then transformed into E. coli. After induction by isopropyl P-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG), HMGB1 protein was purified with Ni2+-NTA chromatography and polymyxin B affinity column. Using purified HMGB1 , as target molecule , four rounds of biopanning to a phage display heptapeptides library were carried out. Out of the fourth round eluted product, twenty individual clones were randomly selected and identified by ELISA assay. The absorbance of these clones at 450 nm was determined with a microplate reader. Positive clones were expanded , purified and sequenced to characterize the motifs of fused heptapeptides. Results Recombinant expression plasmid pGEX4T-1-HMGB1 was constructed ( 65 000 by MW) and the purified proteins (648 bp by cDNA) were obtained. Four rounds of biopanning resulted in 74-fold enrichment of the phages (the recovery were 5.2×108、7.0×106 pfu in fourth and first round). Of the twenty phage clones randomly selected, nine were found to bind specifically with HMGB1 proteins. The deduced amino acid sequence analysis showed that six clones displayed a common amino acid sequence (DYFVSSV). Conclusions A heptapeptide is obtained that may bind specifically to HMGB1 protein with high affinity. It remains to be determined whether this heptapeptide may block the effect of HMGB1 or not.
