    Area of Science:

    • Biotechnology
    • Molecular Biology
    • Synthetic Biology

    Background:

    • Oxyntomodulin is a peptide hormone with potential therapeutic applications.
    • Efficient and scalable production of recombinant proteins is crucial for biotechnology.
    • Intein-mediated protein ligation offers a novel approach for protein engineering.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a method for producing synthetic oxyntomodulin using recombinant DNA technology.
    • To construct and express a hybrid gene encoding oxyntomodulin and an intein in Escherichia coli.
    • To investigate the properties and autocatalytic cleavage of the expressed hybrid protein.

    Main Methods:

    • Chemical and enzymatic synthesis of an artificial oxyntomodulin gene.
    • Construction of a recombinant plasmid with the hybrid gene and Ssp dnaB intein.
    • Expression of the hybrid gene in E. coli.
    • Analysis of protein properties and autocatalytic cleavage conditions.

    Main Results:

    • Successful synthesis and cloning of the artificial oxyntomodulin gene.
    • Construction of a functional recombinant plasmid for gene expression in E. coli.
    • Demonstration of hybrid gene expression and subsequent autocatalytic cleavage to yield oxyntomodulin.

    Conclusions:

    • The study demonstrates a viable strategy for producing synthetic oxyntomodulin using a recombinant E. coli expression system.
    • Intein-mediated self-cleavage provides an efficient mechanism for releasing the target peptide.
    • This approach holds promise for the biotechnological production of oxyntomodulin and other peptide-based therapeutics.
