Expression and purification of human perforin by sf9 insect cells
Abstract
Objective To optimize the purification method of human perforin. Methods Perforin with His tag was expressed by sf9 insect cells, and then protein affinity chromatography was performed by Ni column device. The physicochemical property and biological activity of the purified protein was analyzed by coomassie brilliant blue staining, silver staining and flow cytometry. Results This method was more convenient and economical than traditional protein purification methods like ion exchange chromatography, molecular sieve and hydrophobic interaction chromatography, which providing new ideas for further research of perforin and purification of other protein. Conclusions Perforin can be expressed by sf9 insect cells and is purified by a simple method with biological activity.
