摘要
The antimicrobial peptide Lacticin Q(LQ),which contains 53 amino acid residues,is a novel antimicrobial(AMPs) produced by Lactococcus lactis QU 5~([1]).LQ shows excellent thermostablity and acid-alkali tolerance and exhibits inhibitory activity against a wide range of pathogens~([1,2]).However,the low quantity of LQ produced by natural strains limited the further research and therapeutic application in feed industry.Recently,several biological systems have been developed in bacterial system for the high-production of AMPs~([3,4]).In our study,we efficiently expressed recomobinant LQ in Pichia pastoris(P.pastoris),and 32 mg pure LQ was obtained from fermentation liquid.The effects of temperature and pH on recombinant LQ was tested,and results showed that pH(from 3.0 to 8.0) and temperature(70,80,90 ℃) had a little effect on the biological activity of recombinant LQ.Another experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of LQ on inflammatory response of mouse undergoing Staphylococcus aureus challenge.The results indicated that a low concentration of LQ(15 mg/mL) significantly reduced S.aureus-indaced inflammatory injury.Specifically,15 mg/mL LQ significantly decreased the decreased the expression of IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α(P < 0.05),which showed a direct activation of the inflammatory response that caused tissue destruction and a disease.In sum,this research not only supplied an effective approach for overproducing antibacterial peptide LQ,but paved the way for its further exploration on pharmaceutical potential and medical importance.
