Expression Strategy of Soluble Recombinant Human TGF-β3 in Escherichia coli: sfGFP -Fusion Tag

Soluble Expression of Recombinant Nerve Growth Factor in Cytoplasm of Escherichia coli

Background: Pivotal roles of Nerve growth factor (NGF) in the development and survival of both neuronal and non-neuronal cells indicate its potential for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. However, investigation of NGF deficits in different diseases requires the availability of properly folded human b-NGF. In previous studies bacterial expression of hNGF demonstrated the feasibility o...

Expression and Purification of Soluble form of Human Parathyroid Hormone (rhPTH1-34) by Trx Tag in E. coli

Background: Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) is secreted by parathyroid glands and controls the level of calcium in bones and kidney. PTH is a small polypeptide with 84 amino acids, but the first 34 amino acids of which are enough for hormone biological activity and can be used in the treatment of Osteoporosis. The expression efficiency of recombinant human parathyroid hormone rhPTH (1-34) or Teripara...

Advances and challenges in recombinant protein expression in Escherichia coli

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

BACKGROUND Fibroblast 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 fuse...

Expression of TGF-β3 in Isolated Fibroblasts from Foreskin

Background: The multifunctional transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) is a glycoprotein that exists in three isoforms. TGF-β3 expression increases in fetal wound healing and reduces fibronectin and collagen I and III deposition, and also improves the architecture of the neodermis which is a combination of blood vessels and connective tissue during wound healing. Fibroblasts are key ...
