The limited amount of fusion protein transported into cytosol milieu has made it challenging to obtain a sufficient amount for further applications. To avoid the laborious and expensive task, T7 promoter-driving pET-30a(+) coding for chimeric gene of thymidine phosphorylase and core streptavidin as a model system was constructed and transformed into a variety of E. coli strains with T7 expression system. Our results demonstrated that the pET-30a(+)-TP-coreSA/Lemo21(DE3) system is able to provide efficient expression of soluble TP-coreSA fusion protein for purification. Moreover, the eluted TP-coreSA fusion protein tethered on biotinylated A549 carcinoma cells could effectively eliminate these malignant cells after administrating prodrug 5′-DFUR.

Abstract T7 Expression System is a common method of ensuring tight control and high-level induced expression. However, this system can only work in some bacterial strains in which the T7 RNA Polymerase gene resides in the chromosome. In this study, we successfully introduced a chromosomal copy of the T7 RNA Polymerase gene under control of the lacUV5 promoter into Escherichia coli BW25113. The T7 Expression System worked efficiently in this mutant strain named BW25113-T7. We demonstrated that this mutant strain could satisfactorily produce 5-Aminolevulinic Acid via C5 pathway. A final study was designed to enhance the controllability of T7 Expression System in this mutant strain by constructing a T7 Promoter Variants Library. These efforts advanced E. coli BW25113-T7 to be a practical host for future metabolic engineering efforts.

Manganese peroxidases (MnP) from the white-rot fungi Phanerochaete chrysosporium catalyse the oxidation of Mn2+ to Mn3+, a strong oxidizer able to oxidize a wide variety of organic compounds. Different approaches have been used to unravel the enzymatic properties and potential applications of MnP. However, these efforts have been hampered by the limited production of native MnP by fungi. Heterologous expression of MnP has been achieved in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic expression systems, although with limited production and many disadvantages in the process. Here we described a novel molecular approach for the expression and purification of manganese peroxidase isoform 1 (MnP1) from P. chrysosporium using an E. coli-expression system. The proposed strategy involved the codon optimization and chemical synthesis of the MnP1 gene for optimised expression in the E. coli T7 shuffle host. Recombinant MnP1 (rMnP1) was expressed as a fusion protein, which was recovered from solubilised inclusion bodies. rMnP1 was purified from the fusion protein using intein-based protein purification techniques and a one-step affinity chromatography. The designated strategy allowed production of an active enzyme able to oxidize guaiacol or Mn2+.

ABSTRACT Members of the protein family of immunoglobulin A1 protease-like autotransporters comprise multidomain precursors consisting of a C-terminal autotransporter domain that promotes the translocation of N-terminally attached passenger domains across the cell envelopes of gram-negative bacteria. Several autotransporter domains have recently been shown to efficiently promote the export of heterologous passenger domains, opening up an effective tool for surface display of heterologous proteins. Here we report on the autotransporter domain of the Escherichia coli adhesin involved in diffuse adherence (AIDA-I), which was genetically fused to the C terminus of the periplasmic enzyme β-lactamase, leading to efficient expression of the fusion protein in E. coli. The β-lactamase moiety of the fusion protein was presented on the bacterial surface in a stable manner, and the surface-located β-lactamase was shown to be enzymatically active. Enzymatic activity was completely removed by protease treatment, indicating that surface display of β-lactamase was almost quantitative. The periplasmic domain of the outer membrane protein OmpA was not affected by externally added proteases, demonstrating that the outer membranes of E. coli cells expressing the β-lactamase AIDA-I fusion protein remained physiologically intact.

In this report we describe cloning and expression of human Rho GTPase activating protein (ARHGAP6) isoform 4 in Escherichia coli cells as a fusion protein with 6xHis. We cloned the ARHGAP6 cDNA into the bacterial expression vector pPROEX-1. Induction of the 6xHis-ARHGAP6 protein in BL21(DE3) and DH5alpha cells caused lysis of the cells irrespective of the kind of culture medium used. Successful expression of the fusion protein was obtained in the MC4100Deltaibp mutant strain lacking the small heat-shock proteins IbpA and IbpB. Reasonable yield was obtained when the cells were cultured in Terrific Broth + 1% glucose medium at 22 degrees C for 16 h. The optimal cell density for expression of soluble 6xHis-ARHGAP6 protein was at A(600) about 0.5. Under these conditions over 90% of the fusion protein was present in a soluble form. The 6xHis-ARHGAP6 protein was purified to near homogeneity by a two step procedure comprising chromatography on Ni-nitrilotriacetate and cation exchange columns. The expression system and purification procedure employed made it possible to obtain 1-2 mg of pure 6xHis-ARHGAP6 protein from 300 ml (1.5 g of cells) of E. coli culture.

Abstract Background Increasing the expression rate of recombinant mammalian hormones in Escherichia coli by combining efficient promoters and signal sequences is a never ending process. A self-induced promoter will have some beneficial gains compared to the classical T7 promoter or its variants with isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) as the inducer. Obesity is the prime suspect in widespread frequency of diabetes type II and cardiovascular diseases worldwide. YY (tyrosine-tyrosine) peptide is a local acting hormone, controlling appetite. Excitingly, it was has been shown that a truncated version of the YY peptide, YY(3-36) peptide, has potential as a worthy biopharmaceutical agent in the fight against obesity. Materials and methods To develop an economical expression system for the large scale production of the peptide in Gram-negative bacteria, we introduced a promoter sequence upstream of a chimeric gene for the extracellular expression of this peptide with the assistance of a signal sequence of asparaginase II from E. coli. This system has the advantage of producing a complete sequence of a truncated YY peptide, YY(3-36), without any extra tags that would require further removal with the assistance of expensive specific proteases and reduced the downstream steps, significantly. Results Recombinant production of YY(3-36) peptide under a self-induced promoter proves the efficacy of the asparaginase II signal sequence as a communicator of foreign peptides and proteins into the extracellular space of E. coli. Conclusions The application of fusion protein expression of biopharmaceuticals, especially mammalian hormones, in prokaryotic systems with the help of native signal sequences makes some common tags with expensive proteases for the removal of the attached protein Tag redundant.

Bm-TFF2 was isolated from Bombina maxima. The B.maxima Trefoil factors 2 Variant (vBm-TFF2) could be developed as a novel administered wound healing agent. The challenge is its preparation from refolding insoluble protein expressed in Escherichia coli. A recombinant vBm-TFF2 was overexpressed in E. coli cells as a fusion protein with bacterial N-utilizing substance A (NusA). The fusion protein NusA-Bm-TFF2 can promote the wound healing.

ABSTRACT Piscicolin 126 is a class IIa bacteriocin isolated from Carnobacterium piscicola JG126 that exhibits strong activity against Listeria monocytogenes. The gene encoding mature piscicolin 126 (m-pisA) was cloned into an Escherichia coli expression system and expressed as a thioredoxin-piscicolin 126 fusion protein that was purified by affinity chromatography. Purified recombinant piscicolin 126 was obtained after CNBr cleavage of the fusion protein followed by reversed-phase chromatography. Recombinant piscicolin 126 contained a single disulfide bond and had a mass identical to that of native piscicolin 126. This novel bacteriocin expression system generated approximately 26 mg of purified bacteriocin from 1 liter of E. coli culture. The purified recombinant piscicolin 126 acted by disruption of the bacterial cell membrane.

LTB is the B subunit of heat labile toxins (LT) in Escherichia coli ETEC. This subunit is non-toxic but has a high immune response. Therefore, LTB is considered a suitable antigen for partial vaccine against the diarrhea caused by E. coli ETEC. The most important component of partial vaccine is antigen protein. Nowadays, with the advancement of recombinant protein technology, these antigens are mainly produced by the common bacterial expression system as E. coli. However, the recombinant proteins produced by E. coli are often miscellaneous with enterotoxins, which should be removed from pharmaceutical products. Thus, the production of antigen proteins in other expression system without endotoxins like Bacillus subtilis is in attention. We conducted the experiments of cloning and expressing LTB using a novel pHT plasmid that allow the protein to be expressed in both of E. coli and B. subtilis. We were successful to generate plasmid pHT326 and express the gene encoding for the fusion protein of LTB and LysSN-6xHis-TEV in B. subtilis and E. coli. The binding of fusion protein on the columns that have affinity with His-tag was confirmed. This result is about to be applied for the development of partial vaccine aganst the diarrhea as well as the development of some diagnostic kits for ETEC in food or medical waste and kits to detect antibodies against LTB in animals.
