Abstract: Antibacterial peptide is a kind of small molecular compound with antibacterial activity in organisms,especially in insect cells that resist the infection of foreign microbe,to research cloning of antibacterial peptide genes and expressing and purification of recombinant proteins from Bombyx mori. Four pairs of special primers were designed,and four genes BmCecropin,BmCecropinB6,BmCecropinD and Bmmoricin were amplified by RT-PCR from total RNA extracted from midgut from silkworm,then four recombinant proteins were expressed and purified by auto-induction and Ni-NTA affinity chromatography and ultrafiltration purification.The results showed that four antibacterial peptide genes were 198,108,105,129 bp in sizes,respectively.Further SDS-PAGE electrophoresis to detect four recombinant antibacterial peptide,results showed that four recombinant antibacterial peptide by auto-induction expressing were 24,21,20,22 ku in sizes,respectively.The four purified antibacterial peptides constructed a basis on subsequent antibacterial test and further application on bacteriostatic agent,cosmetics and preservatives.

Key words: Bombyx mori, Antibacterial peptide, Recombinant protein, Auto-induction expressing, Purified
