Abstract

cDNA encoding somatolactin (SL) was obtained by RT-PCR from pituitary glands of rock bream (Oplegnathus fasciatus). The full length cDNA of rock bream somatolactin (rbSL) is 1636 bp long. It contains a 696 bp open reading frame encoding a signal peptide of 24 amino acids (an) and a mature protein of 207 aa. rbSL has seven cysteine residues$(Cys^{5},\; Cys^{15},\; Cys^{42},\; Cys^{65},\; Cys^{181},\; Cys^{198}\; $and $Cys^{206})$ and two potential N-glycosylation sites at positions $Asn^{121}$and $Asn^{153}$. The rbSL shares 61.1∼92.6% amino acid sequence similarities and 63∼92.6% nucleotide sequence identities with other teleost SLs, except for goldfish and channel catfish SL. Amino acid sequence alignment revealed that rbSL has four conserved domains $(A_{SL},\; B_{SL},\; C_{SL}and\; D_{SL})$ common to all SLs. Out of these domains, $(A_{SL},\; B_{SL},\; C_{SL}and\; D_{SL})$, are also conserved in all teleost growth hormones and prolactins. The cDNA of rbSL has been cloned into pET expression vector in order to produce recombinant rbSL in E. coli BL2l(DE3) cells. The recombinant protein showed a molecular weight of 27 kDa in SDS-PAGE.

돌돔 (Oplegnathus fasciatus) SL을 암호화하는 cDNA clone을 뇌하수체로부터 RT-PCR 방법에 의해 획득하였다. 돌돔 SL cDNA의 길이는 1636 bp로서 24개의 아미노산인 signal peptide와 207개 의 aa으로 구성된 mature protein을 암호화하는 696 bp의 open reading frame을 갖고 있다. 또한, 돌돔 SL 아미노산에는 이황화 결합에 관여하는 7개의 시스테인 잔기 $(Cys^{5},\; Cys^{15},\; Cys^{42},\; Cys^{65},\; Cys^{181},\; Cys^{198}\$ 과 $Cys^{206})$와 두 개의 potential N-glycosylation site인 $Asn^{121}$ 과 $Asn^{153}$을 확인하였다. 돌돔 SL은 goldfish와 channel catfish를 제외한 다른 경골어류 SL에 아미노산 서열은 61.1∼92.6%, 뉴클레오타이드 서열은 63∼92.6%의 일치를 나타낸다. 아미노산 서열 alingment에서 돌돔 SL은 다른 어류 SL에 공통적인 4개의 conserved domain $(A_{SL},\; B_{SL},\; C_{SL}$과 $D_{SL})$을 갖고 있음을 확인하였다. 이들중 $A_{SL},\; B_{SL}$,과 $D_{SL}$,은 경골어류 growth hormone과 prolactin에도 잘 보존되어 있었다 재조합 돌돔 SL 단백질을 E. coli에서 생산하기 위해 돌돔 SL cDNA를 발현벡터에 클로닝하여 단백질의 발현을 유도하였다 발현된 단백질은 SDS-PAGE에 의해 분자량 약 27 kDa의 재조합 단백질의 발현을 확인하였다.
