Abstract
Metalloproteinase tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) have the activity of inhibiting matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which can promote cell growth, bind to the matrix, inhibit angiogenesis, and play a key role in extracellular matrix (ECM) metabolism regulation. In this study, TIMP-1, 2 from Hyriopsis cumingii (designated as HcTIMP-1, 2) were cloned and identified. Full-length cDNA of HcTIMP-1, 2 was 1160 bp and 729 bp, encoding 235 and 150 amino acid residues, respectively. The predicted molecular weight of HcTIMP-1 and 2 protein was 27.26 and 16.58 kDa, with isoelectric points of 8.89 and 8.72, respectively. HcTIMP-2 contained only one netrin (NTR) domain at the N-terminal but lacked a C-terminal domain. The mRNA of HcTIMP-1, 2 was expressed in hepatopancreas, gills, muscles, hemocytes, and mantles, which had the highest expression in hemocytes and muscles. The expression of HcTIMP-1, 2 had increased remarkably in hemocytes after bacterial challenge. After trauma, HcTIMP-1, 2 genes had the highest expression level in the first day. This indicated that HcTIMP-1 and 2 were involved in the immune response of H. cumingii. The soluble recombinant proteins HcTIMP-1, 2 were expressed efficiently in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) by constructing pET32a-TIMP1, 2 recombinant plasmids. The concentration of the recombinant was 0.14 and 0.31 mg/mL, respectively. The recombinant HcTIMP-1, 2 proteins were shown to inhibit human MMP2 activity and promoted the growth of NBL-7 and HUVE cells.
