Data for the co-expression and purification of human recombinant CaMKK2 in complex with calmodulin in Escherichia coli.

ABSTRACT: Calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase kinase 2 (CaMKK2) has been implicated in a range of conditions and pathologies from prostate to hepatic cancer. Here, we describe the expression in Escherichia coli and the purification protocol for the following constructs: full-length CaMKK2 in complex with CaM, CaMKK2 'apo', CaMKK2 (165-501) in complex with CaM, and the CaMKK2 F267G mutant. The protocols described have been optimized for maximum yield and purity with minimal purification steps required and the proteins subsequently used to develop a fluorescence-based assay for drug binding to the kinase, "Using the fluorescent properties of STO-609 as a tool to assist structure-function analyses of recombinant CaMKK2" [1].

Expression and purification of recombinant hemoglobin in Escherichia coli.

Project description:BackgroundRecombinant DNA technologies have played a pivotal role in the elucidation of structure-function relationships in hemoglobin (Hb) and other globin proteins. Here we describe the development of a plasmid expression system to synthesize recombinant Hbs in Escherichia coli, and we describe a protocol for expressing Hbs with low intrinsic solubilities. Since the α- and β-chain Hbs of different species span a broad range of solubilities, experimental protocols that have been optimized for expressing recombinant human HbA may often prove unsuitable for the recombinant expression of wildtype and mutant Hbs of other species.Methodology/principal findingsAs a test case for our expression system, we produced recombinant Hbs of the deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus), a species that has been the subject of research on mechanisms of Hb adaptation to hypoxia. By experimentally assessing the combined effects of induction temperature, induction time and E. coli expression strain on the solubility of recombinant deer mouse Hbs, we identified combinations of expression conditions that greatly enhanced the yield of recombinant protein and which also increased the efficiency of post-translational modifications.Conclusion/significanceOur protocol should prove useful for the experimental study of recombinant Hbs in many non-human animals. One of the chief advantages of our protocol is that we can express soluble recombinant Hb without co-expressing molecular chaperones, and without the need for additional reconstitution or heme-incorporation steps. Moreover, our plasmid construct contains a combination of unique restriction sites that allows us to produce recombinant Hbs with different α- and β-chain subunit combinations by means of cassette mutagenesis.

Cloning, expression and purification of recombinant dermatopontin in Escherichia coli.

Project description:Dermatopontin (DPT) is an extracellular matrix (ECM) protein with diversified pharmaceutical applications. It plays important role in cell adhesion/migration, angiogenesis and ECM maintenance. The recombinant production of this protein will enable further exploration of its multifaceted functions. In this study, DPT protein has been expressed in Escherichia coli (E.coli) aiming at cost effective recombinant production. The E.coli GJ1158 expression system was transformed with constructed recombinant vector (pRSETA-DPT) and protein was expressed as inclusion bodies on induction with NaCl. The inclusion bodies were solubilised in urea and renaturation of protein was done by on-column refolding procedure in Nickel activated Sepharose column. The refolded Histidine-tagged DPT protein was purified and eluted from column using imidazole and its purity was confirmed by analytical techniques. The biological activity of the protein was confirmed by collagen fibril assay, wound healing assay and Chorioallantoic Membrane (CAM) angiogenesis assay on comparison with standard DPT. The purified DPT was found to enhance the collagen fibrillogenesis process and improved the migration of human endothelial cells. About 73% enhanced wound closure was observed in purified DPT treated endothelial cells as compared to control. The purified DPT also could induce neovascularisation in the CAM model. At this stage, scaling up the production process for DPT with appropriate purity and reproducibility will have a promising commercial edge.

Recombinant expression of Barnase in Escherichia coli and its application in plasmid purification.

Project description:BackgroundThe use of bovine-origin ribonucleases has been part of the standard protocol for plasmid DNA purification. As the field of gene therapy now enters the clinical stage, such enzymes need to be phased out or alternative purification protocols need to be developed to ensure product safety and regulatory compliance. The recombinant expression of bacterial RNase is fraught with toxicity problems making it a challenging enzyme to express. The current study describes a plasmid construct that allowed expression of barnase in Escherichia coli under co-expression of its native inhibitor barstar.ResultsThe pure enzyme without the inhibitor barstar was exported to the extracellular space through the periplasm and then purified from the cell-free supernatant. Cation exchange chromatography was employed as a primary purification step. This was followed by hydrophobic interaction chromatography which resulted in a concentrated fraction of active enzyme. Although current levels of volumetric activity achieved are quite meagre (4 Kunitz units mL- 1), in principle its application to plasmid DNA purification could be proved. Currently, this is capable of processing small amounts (13 g) of bacterial biomass for plasmid production.ConclusionsThe current work focusses on the downstream purification strategies for a recombinant RNase and sets a framework for higher scale production if specific productivity is increased by optimal hosts and/or re-engineered plasmids. Also important is to curtail the massive enzyme loss during purification by cation exchange chromatography. Application of even a relatively small amount of recombinant RNase would contribute to greatly reducing the initial RNA levels in alkaline lysates thereby augmenting further downstream plasmid purification steps.

Expression optimization of recombinant cholesterol oxidase in Escherichia coli and its purification and characterization.

Project description:Cholesterol oxidase is a bacterial flavoenzyme which catalyzes oxidation and isomerization of cholesterol. This enzyme has a great commercial value because of its wide applications in cholesterol analysis of clinical samples, synthesis of steroid-derived drugs, food industries, and potentially insecticidal activity. Accordingly, development of an efficient protocol for overexpression of cholesterol oxidase can be very valuable and beneficial. In this study, expression optimization of cholesterol oxidase from Streptomyces sp. SA-COO was investigated in Escherichia coli host strains. Various parameters that may influence the yield of a recombinant enzyme were evaluated individually. The optimal host strain, culture media, induction time, Isopropyl ß-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside concentration, as well as post-induction incubation time and temperature were determined in a shaking flask mode. Applying the optimized protocol, the production of recombinant cholesterol oxidase was significantly enhanced from 3.2 to 158 U/L. Under the optimized condition, the enzyme was produced on a large-scale, and highly expressed cholesterol oxidase was purified from cell lysate by column nickel affinity chromatography. Km and Vmax values of the purified enzyme for cholesterol were estimated using Lineweaver-Burk plot. Further, the optimum pH and optimum temperature for the enzyme activity were also determined. We report a straightforward and easy protocol for cholesterol oxidase production which can be performed in any laboratory.

High Level Expression and Purification of Recombinant Proteins from Escherichia coli with AK-TAG.

Project description:Adenylate kinase (AK) from Escherichia coli was used as both solubility and affinity tag for recombinant protein production. When fused to the N-terminus of a target protein, an AK fusion protein could be expressed in soluble form and purified to near homogeneity in a single step from Blue-Sepherose via affinity elution with micromolar concentration of P1, P5- di (adenosine-5') pentaphosphate (Ap5A), a transition-state substrate analog of AK. Unlike any other affinity tags, the level of a recombinant protein expression in soluble form and its yield of recovery during each purification step could be readily assessed by AK enzyme activity in near real time. Coupled to a His-Tag installed at the N-terminus and a thrombin cleavage site at the C terminus of AK, the streamlined method, here we dubbed AK-TAG, could also allow convenient expression and retrieval of a cleaved recombinant protein in high yield and purity via dual affinity purification steps. Thus AK-TAG is a new addition to the arsenal of existing affinity tags for recombinant protein expression and purification, and is particularly useful where soluble expression and high degree of purification are at stake.

Recombinant protein production data after expression in the bacterium Escherichia coli.

Project description:Fusion proteins have become essential for the expression and purification of recombinant proteins in Escherichia coli. The metal-binding protein CusF has shown several features that make it an attractive fusion protein and affinity tag: "Expression and purification of recombinant proteins in Escherichia coli tagged with the metal-binding protein CusF" (Cantu-Bustos et al., 2016 [1]). Here we present accompanying data from protein expression experiments; we tested different protein tags, temperatures, expression times, cellular compartments, and concentrations of inducer in order to obtain soluble protein and low formation of inclusion bodies. Additionally, we present data from the purification of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) tagged with CusF, using Ag(I) metal affinity chromatography.

Expression and purification of a cleavable recombinant fortilin from Escherichia coli for structure activity studies.

Project description:Complications related to atherosclerosis account for approximately 1 in 4 deaths in the United States and treatment has focused on lowering serum LDL-cholesterol levels with statins. However, approximately 50% of those diagnosed with atherosclerosis have blood cholesterol levels within normal parameters. Human fortilin is an anti-apoptotic protein and a factor in macrophage-mediated atherosclerosis and is hypothesized to protect inflammatory macrophages from apoptosis, leading to subsequent cardiac pathogenesis. Fortilin is unique because it provides a novel drug target for atherosclerosis that goes beyond lowering cholesterol and utilization of a solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, structure-based drug discovery approach requires milligram quantities of pure, bioactive, recombinant fortilin. Here, we designed expression constructs with different affinity tags and protease cleavage sites to find optimal conditions to obtain the quantity and purity of protein necessary for structure activity relationship studies. Plasmids encoding fortilin with maltose binding protein (MBP), 6-histidine (6His) and glutathione-S-transferase (GST), N- terminal affinity tags were expressed and purified from Escherichia coli (E. coli). Cleavage sites with tobacco etch virus (TEV) protease and human rhinovirus (HRV) 3C protease were assessed. Despite high levels of expression of soluble protein, the fusion constructs were resistant to proteinases without the inclusion of amino acids between the cleavage site and N-terminus. We surveyed constructs with increasing lengths of glycine/serine (GGS) linkers between the cleavage site and fortilin and found that inclusion of at least one GGS insert led to successful protease cleavage and pure fortilin with conserved binding to calcium as measured by NMR.

Highly efficient soluble expression, purification and characterization of recombinant Aβ42 from <i>Escherichia coli</i>.

Project description:Aggregation of amyloid-β protein (Aβ) is hypothesized to be a seminal neuropathological event in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recombinant expression and purification of Aβ represents a common basis for investigating the molecular mechanisms of amyloid formation and toxicity. Herein, we report a novel high-yield expression and purification method for Aβ42 based on fusion with maltose binding protein (MBP) followed by the soluble polypeptide linker (NANP)3 and a modified tobacco etch virus (TEV) cleavage site before the Aβ42. We obtained a final yield of ∼18 mg L-1 of recombinant Aβ42 that was confirmed by SDS-PAGE, protein immunoblotting and MALDI-TOF. Finally, thioflavin T fluorescence and atomic force microscopy revealed that the recombinant Aβ42 aggregated into long, branched fibrils. Furthermore, the aggregates of the recombinant peptide had a strong cytotoxic effect on PC12 cells. The method described here can therefore be used to efficiently express the soluble fusion protein MBP-Aβ42 and obtain high-purity Aβ42 peptide, which can be used to understand the molecular mechanism of Aβ42 fibrillization and screen new candidate drugs for AD.

High-level expression and purification of soluble recombinant FGF21 protein by SUMO fusion in Escherichia coli.

Project description:BackgroundFibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a promising drug candidate to combat metabolic diseases. However, high-level expression and purification of recombinant FGF21 (rFGF21) in Escherichia coli (E. coli) is difficult because rFGF21 forms inclusion bodies in the bacteria making it difficult to purify and obtain high concentrations of bioactive rFGF21. To overcome this problem, we fused the FGF21 with SUMO (Small ubiquitin-related modifier) by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and expressed the fused gene in E. coli BL21(DE3).ResultsBy inducing with IPTG, SUMO-FGF21 was expressed at a high level. Its concentration reached 30% of total protein, and exceeded 95% of all soluble proteins. The fused protein was purified by DEAE sepharose FF and Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. Once cleaved by the SUMO protease, the purity of rFGF21 by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was shown to be higher than 96% with low endotoxin level (<1.0 EU/ml). The results of in vivo animal experiments showed that rFGF21 produced by using this method, could decrease the concentration of plasma glucose in diabetic rats by streptozotocin (STZ) injection.ConclusionsThis study demonstrated that SUMO, when fused with FGF21, was able to promote its soluble expression of the latter in E. coli, making it more convenient to purify rFGF21 than previously. This may be a better method to produce rFGF21 for pharmaceutical research and development.

Expression and purification of soluble recombinant β-lactamases using Escherichia coli as expression host and pET-28a as cloning vector.

Project description:BackgroundDue to its high expression capability, recombination of Escherichia coli and pET vector has become the bioengineering preferred expression system. Because β-lactamases mediate bacterial antimicrobial resistance, these enzymes have a substantial clinical impact. Using the E. coli expression system, several kinds of β-lactamases have been produced. However, previous studies have been focused on characterizing target β-lactamases, and the effects of cultivation and induction conditions on the expression efficiency of target enzymes were not addressed.ResultsUsing pET-28a as the cloning vector and E. coli BL21(DE3) as the expression host, this study originally elucidated the effects of IPTG concentration, culture temperature, induction time, and restriction sites on recombinant β-lactamase expression. Moreover, the effects of the target protein length and the 6 × His-tag fusion position on enzyme purification were also explored, and consequently, this study yielded several important findings. (i) Only the signal peptide-detached recombinant β-lactamase could exist in a soluble form. (ii) Low-temperature induction was beneficial for soluble β-lactamase expression. (iii) The closer to the rbs the selected restriction site was, the more difficult it was to express soluble β-lactamase. (iv) The short-chain recombinant protein and the protein with His-tag fused at its C-terminus showed high affinity to the Ni2+ column.ConclusionsBased on our findings, researchers can easily design an effective program for the high production of soluble recombinant β-lactamases to facilitate other related studies.
