Gaffney notes, May 26, 2015

Soybean lipoxygenase-1 (similar to gb|AAA33986.1|, 839 aa) was cloned into pET-30 Xa/LIC. The sequence of the expression construct (below) is numbered beginning with the ATG start of the protein-coding region.The mRNA (approx. 1.8 mg from 1 g seedpods)was obtained from green pods of plants grown from soybeans packaged by the former Glacial Ridge Foods, Starbuck, MN.Intermediate steps in amplifying the cDNA are described in a dissertation by Brendan C. Maguire (Johns Hopkins University, 1999, UMI Microform 9927119)1. The coding cDNA sequence differed from published in bases 478-480 (AGT to GAG, Ser160Glu) and at base 1608 (G to T, Lys640, silent) (Coffa et al. 2005, J. Biol. Chem. 280: 38756)2. Ligation independent cloning was used to insert the lipoxygenase gene into pET-30 Xa/LIC, to give a construct of 7978 bp, with 2517 bp of lipoxygenase gene followed by an 11 bp C-terminal extension and then 5444 bp of the vector. The C-terminal extension includes a stop codon and a SpeI restriction site (underlined), (TAAACTAGTCATGGGGC)and it renders the C-terminal His-tag codons in the vector out of frame. Minor variations from the published sequence of the pET-30 Xa vector occur at positions 3224 (T to C), 3234 (C deletion), and 5087-5089 (TAT deletion). The same changes have also been found in a pET 28 plasmid, suggesting these are common variants of pET vectors.3

The deposited plasmids include the wild-type protein sequence as two variants: WT160E and WT160S, both with the pETXa30Xa/LIC N-terminal His-tag appended. Plasmids for His-tagged lipoxygenases in which the four native cysteines codons have been mutated to serine (TGC to TCC) are included for both His-tagged WT sequences (160E and 160S). Wild-type constructs, 160E and 160S, lacking the 141 bp N-terminal extension coding for the pET-30Xa His tag were also prepared using Q5 mutagenesis (NEB)3.
