- LRSAM1 was expressed at high level in Escherichia.coli as inclusion bodies.
- LRSAM1 was purified from inclusion bodies through denaturation, renaturation and ammonium sulfate precipitation steps.
- The E3 activity of LRSAM1 was pH-dependent in cooperation with UbcH5-type E2-enzymes.
- LRSAM1-driven ubiquitination favored K6-, K27-, K29- and K48-linkages.
LRSAM1 is a typical RING-finger E3 ubiquitin ligase that plays an important role in many processes. The expression and purification of LRSAM1 from Escherichia coli had not yet been reported. Here, strategies to clone, express and purify recombinant LRSAM1 in E. coli cells were developed. LRSAM1 was expressed with high yield as inclusion bodies and successfully recovered in soluble form by subsequent denaturation and renaturation steps. Refolded LRSAM1 was directly purified through two steps of ammonium sulfate precipitation, resulting in a purity of up to 95% and a yield of about 6Â mg/L bacterial culture. Purified recombinant LRSAM1 exhibited a pH-dependent E3 ligase activity. Its ligase activity was RING-finger domain-dependent, and its ubiquitination favors K6-, K27-, K29- and K48-linkages in cooperation with UbcH5-type E2 enzymes.
