Protein refolding assisted by periodic mesoporous organosilicas.
Herein we report a new strategy for protein refolding by taking advantage of the unique surface and pore characteristics of ethylene-bridged periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO), which can effectively entrap unfolded proteins and assist refolding by controlled release into the refolding buffer. Hen egg white lysozyme was used as a model protein to demonstrate the new method of protein refoldi...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics for surfactant-assisted protein refolding.
Surfactants are widely used to refold recombinant proteins that are produced as inclusion bodies in E. Coli. However, the microscopic details of the surfactant-assisted protein refolding processes are yet to be uncovered. In the present work, the authors aim to provide insights into the effect of hydrophobic interactions of a denatured protein with surfactant molecules on the refolding kinetics...
متن کاملProtein refolding by pH-triggered chaperone binding and release.
Molecular chaperones are typically either adenosine triphosphate (ATP) dependent or rely heavily on their ATP-dependent chaperone counterparts in order to promote protein folding. This presents a challenge to chaperones that are localized to ATP-deficient cellular compartments. Here we describe a mechanism by which the pH-regulated acid stress chaperone HdeA is capable of independently facilita...
متن کاملProtein disulfide isomerase exhibits chaperone and anti-chaperone activity in the oxidative refolding of lysozyme.
Reduced, denatured lysozyme tends to aggregate at neutral pH, and competition between productive folding and aggregation substantially reduces the efficiency of refolding (Goldberg, M.E., Rudolph, R., and Jaenicke, R. (1991) Biochemistry 30, 2790-2797). Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), a catalyst of oxidative protein folding, has a variety of effects on the yield of native lysozyme during the...
متن کاملProtein Disulfide Isomerase-assisted Refolding of Ribonuclease a Nanoparticles
This work highlights the refolding of ribonuclease A (RNase A) as a new methodology to recover the biological function of protein stabilized as nanoparticles, assisted by protein disulfide Isomerase (PDI).We have shown that RNase A nanoparticles loose 35% of enzymatic activity when compared to the native RNase A, and PDI was able to restore it. Moreover, the application of PDI on nanoparticles ...
