Abstract

Helicobacter pylori is the etiologic agent of human gastritis and peptic ulceration and produces urease as the major protein component on its surface. H. pylori urease is known to serve as a major virulence factor and a potent immunogen. Recombinant H. pylori urease expressed in E. coli was purified by simple purification procedures utilizing (CNBr-activated Sepharose-anti-urease IgG immunoaffinity chromatography or epoxy- activated Sepharose-urea affinity chromatography. Urease was apparently bound so tightly to the anti-urease IgG resin that it could not be eluted at various elution conditions except at certain extreme pH 1, including 100 mM carbonate (pH 10.5) buffer solution, which was shown to elute slightly inactivated but relatively pure enzyme. Urease eluted from the epoxy-activated Sepharose-urea affinity column showed higher activity, but the smaller UreA subunit of the enzyme appeared as a Fainter band of diminished intensity when subjected to SDS-polyamide gel electrophoresis.

위염, 위궤양 및 위암의 원인 균인 Helicobacter pylori 가균체 표면에 다량 함유하며 주된 생존 인자이며 병원성 인자인 urease를 대장균에서 발현시키고 이 효소에 대한 항체 또는 기질과의 특이 상호 작용을 이용하여 두 단계의 간편한 방법에 의하여 정제하였다. 우선 anti-H. pylori Urease IgG-Sepharose column과 urea-Sepharose column을 각각 제조하고 DEAE-Sepharose 음이온 교환수지를 통하여 1차 정제한 시료를 각각 적용하고 제반 조건에서 용출시켰다. Anti-H. pylori urease IgG-Sepharose column의 경우에는 urease 시료가 너무 강력하게 결합함으로써 극단적인 pH조건에서만 용출이 가능함이 관찰되었으므로, 100 mM 탄산 완충액(pH 10.5)으로 최종 용출하였을 때 비교적 순수한 효소를 얻었으나, 비활성이 다소 감소된 것으로 나타났다. 한편, urea-Sepharose에 적용시킨 시료는 100 mM urea-HEB 완충액(pH 7.5)으로 비교적 용이하게 용출되어 비교적 높은 순도와 비활성의 urease 효소를 얻을 수 있었으나 이 경우에는 urease의 smaller subunit인 UreA peptide band의 강도가 다소 감소한 것이 관찰되었다.
