Objective House fly (Musca domestica) is a mechanical vector of many diseases which can cause severe consequences for human and animal health. Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases play an important role in resistance to many insecticides in the house fly. Establishment of functional expression system of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase will be helpful for the characterization of P450 mediated insecticide resistance. Methods In this study, we cloned the open reading frame of MdCPR gene into the expression vector pB508. The constructed plasmid MdCPR-pB508 was transformed into Escherichia coli (DH5α). The production of MdCPR protein in E. coli was induced by isopropyl β-thiogalactoside (IPTG). Results MdCPR was expressed in E. coli with an expected molecule weight of around 76×103. The E. coli-produced MdCPR protein was mainly present in the membrane fraction, showing the catalytic activity of NADPH-dependent reduction of cytochrome C. Conclusion The successful functional expression of MdCPR can facilitate further investigation of the role of various cytochrome P450s in insecticide resistance in house flies.
