Expression of α1(V) without the native signal sequence and the C-propeptide (a, b) and of α1(V)/α2(V) chains (c) in P. pastoris. (a) 5% SDS-PAGE analysis under reducing conditions of the soluble fraction of acidic extraction from untransformed yeast cells (lane 1) and from yeast cells transformed with the construct pPICZα-C5A1N (lane 2). (b) Western blot analysis of the same samples as in panel (a) probed with monoclonal pan-collagen antibody 95D1A. (c) Western blot analysis of the soluble fraction of neutral extraction of yeast cells transformed with α1(V) and α2(V) chains and induced with 0.5% methanol induction. Samples were incubated without (lane 1) or with (lane 2) pepsin before analysis. Left, molecular mass standards expressed in kDa.
