Abstract: BST-2 gene (Capra hircus bone marrow stromal antigen 2 gene) was amplified and cloned into pGEX-4T-1 and p3×Flag-CMV-14, respectively. The recombinant plasmids were named as pGEX-BST-2 and p3×Flag-BST-2, respectively. Firstly, pGEX-BST-2 was transformed into E.coli BL21(DE3), then the protein expression was induced by IPTG. The results of SDS-PAGE and Western blot analysis showed that the molecular weight of the recombinant protein was about 42 ku. Finally, Vero cells were transfected with p3×Flag-BST-2 through Lipofectamine 2 000 reagent, and the cells were analyzed by confocal microscopy.

Key words: BST-2 gene (bone marrow stromal antigen 2 gene), prokaryotic expression, eukaryotic expression, subcellular localization, Capra hiracs
