Refolding and characterization of two G protein-coupled receptors purified from E. coli inclusion bodies.


ABSTRACT: Aiming at streamlining GPCR production from E. coli inclusion bodies for structural analysis, we present a generic approach to assess and optimize refolding yield through thermostability analysis. Since commonly used hydrophobic dyes cannot be applied as probes for membrane protein unfolding, we adapted a technique based on reacting cysteins exposed upon thermal denaturation with fluorescent 7-Diethylamino-3-(4-maleimidophenyl)-4-methylcoumarin (CPM). Successful expression, purification and refolding is shown for two G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR), the sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor S1P1, and the orphan receptor GPR3. Refolded receptors were subjected to lipidic cubic phase crystallization screening.
