Abstract
Recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor-BB (rhPDGF-BB) is widely used in many therapeutic applications. Until now, there has been no report on rhPDGF-BB expressed in fungi. In this study, we tested whether Pleurotus eryngii could support the expression of human therapeutic rhPDGF-BB protein. A binary vector pCAMBIA1304 containing the hPDGF-BB gene was constructed and introduced into P. eryngii via Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation. The transformation of hPDGF-BB gene was confirmed by Southern blot and PCR, whereas the expression was confirmed by Western blot analysis. The recombinant hPDGF-BB reached a maximum expression level of 1.98% of total soluble protein in transgenic mycelia and was in dimeric form. A bioassay revealed that hPDGF-BB expressed in P. eryngii increased proliferation of NIH-3T3 cells similarly to standard material. These results suggest that P. eryngii can be a robust system for the production of human therapeutic proteins including the hPDGF-BB.
