Abstract: Objective To prepare the recombinant human SORL1 protein, and provide the experimental foundation for study about the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Methods A human sorl1 cDNA fragment(5 923~6 260 bp) was amplified by PCR, and subucloned into pET-28a(+) vector. Recombinant plasmid was expressed by E.coli BL21(DE3), and the recombinant protein was purified by liquid chromatography. Results A 358 bp cDNA fragment was amplified by PCR method. Its structure between the ATG and TGA was completely consistent with the human sorl1 cDNA fragment(5 923~6 260 bp). The recombinant plasmid in E.coli BL21(DE3) was highly expressed and its expression product was mainly in the inclusion body. The purified protein on SDS-PAGE demonstrated a single band, which appeared to have a molecular weight of about 13 000. Conclusion Human sorl1 cDNA fragment was highly expressed in prokaryotic cells. The purified recombinant protein can be used to prepare antibodies.
