Objective To clone, express, purify human Oct-4 and detect its subcellular localization. Methods Human Oct-4 cDNA was amplified by RT-PCR strategy. Oct-4 protein was induced and expressed in BL21(DE3) strain. Furthermore, the protein was purified with Ni-NTA resin. Subsequently, site-directed mutagenesis of Oct-4 (aa 236-240) was introduced. Finally, the subcellular localization of wide type Oct-4 and mutant Oct-4 was examined by immunofluorescent cytochemistry staining and confocal laser scanning microscope analysis. Results The full length cDNA of human Oct-4 was 1083bp. Human Oct-4 encoded a 55 kd protein by prokaryotic vector in E coli. Compared with pure nuclear localization of wide type Oct-4, mutant Oct-4 was mostly enriched in the cytoplasm. Conclusion The cloning, expression and investigation of subcellular localization of human Oct-4 are basis of studying its biological function.
