Abstract

Mouse CXCL14/BRAK is a monocyte-selective chemokine which is expressed in almost all normal tissues. A flood of reports on its new functions of tumor suppression and fat metabolism modulation has left CXCL14 a potential therapeutic candidate for these diseases. Therefore, a simple accessible method is on demand for large-scale production of recombinant mouse CXCL14 protein for in vivo animal studies. Here, we introduce an efficient method for large-scale production of recombinant mouse CXCL14, by which an 18-mg protein is produced from 2-L Escherichia coli culture with good bioactivity and low level of endotoxin.
