Construction and deconstruction of bacterial inclusion bodies.
Bacterial inclusion bodies (IBs) are refractile aggregates of protease-resistant misfolded protein that often occur in recombinant bacteria upon gratuitous overexpression of cloned genes. In biotechnology, the formation of IBs represents a main obstacle for protein production since even favouring high protein yields, the in vitro recovery of functional protein from insoluble deposits depends on...
متن کاملIsolation of cell-free bacterial inclusion bodies
BACKGROUND Bacterial inclusion bodies are submicron protein clusters usually found in recombinant bacteria that have been traditionally considered as undesirable products from protein production processes. However, being fully biocompatible, they have been recently characterized as nanoparticulate inert materials useful as scaffolds for tissue engineering, with potentially wider applicability i...
متن کاملBacterial Inclusion Bodies Contain Amyloid-Like Structure
Protein aggregation is a process in which identical proteins self-associate into imperfectly ordered macroscopic entities. Such aggregates are generally classified as amorphous, lacking any long-range order, or highly ordered fibrils. Protein fibrils can be composed of native globular molecules, such as the hemoglobin molecules in sickle-cell fibrils, or can be reorganized beta-sheet-rich aggre...
متن کاملChemical Assistance in Refolding of Bacterial Inclusion Bodies
Escherichia coli is one of the most widely used hosts for the production of recombinant proteins but insoluble expression of heterologous proteins is a major bottleneck in production of recombinant proteins in E. coli. In vitro refolding of inclusion body into proteins with native conformations is a solution for this problem but there is a need for optimization of condition for each protein spe...
متن کاملMathematical model for fragmentation of bacterial inclusion bodies
Bacterial inclusion bodies are microscopic, ovoid-shaped aggregates of insoluble protein. Under protease exposure a digestion process is produced that reveals a variable fragmentation rate, not compatible with a surfacerestricted erosion of body particles, or an uniform sensibility to the fragmentation agent. The modelling and fitting of experimental data is performed in two steps. (a) Due to p...
