Heterologous systems for expression of mammalian sulfotransferases.
This paper describes the use of both mammalian and bacterial expression systems as tools to study the structural and functional relationships of proteins encoded by cDNAs to both rat and human aryl sulfotransferases. In particular, we describe the use of the mammalian COS cell system for functional expression studies, and the use of Escherichia coli for the expression and purification of a sulf...
متن کاملExpression systems for production of heterologous proteins
With the advent of our ability to clone and express a foreign gene in the heterologous host, came a remarkable capability to make almost any protein in abundant quantity to be used as therapeutic or diagnostic agents. It quickly led to the realization that proteins made in different hosts are different in many ways, particularly in their post-translation modifications. In this review a variety ...
متن کاملHeterologous mammalian expression systems for investigating the properties of metabotropic glutamate receptors.
Introduction The amino acid ],-glutamate is the principal excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. Through its interaction with a broad variety of receptors present at the surface of responding cells, 1.-glutamate has been proposed to be involved in learning activity and memory acquisition, but also in neurotoxicity and diverse neurological disorders. Distinct families of glut...
متن کاملHeterologous Expression and Purification Systems for Structural Proteomics of Mammalian Membrane Proteins
Membrane proteins (MPs) are responsible for the interface between the exterior and the interior of the cell. These proteins are implicated in numerous diseases, such as cancer, cystic fibrosis, epilepsy, hyperinsulinism, heart failure, hypertension and Alzheimer's disease. However, studies on these disorders are hampered by a lack of structural information about the proteins involved. Structura...
متن کاملExpression of Lectins in Heterologous Systems
Lectins are proteins that have the ability to recognize and bind in a reversible and specific way to free carbohydrates or glycoconjugates of cell membranes. For these reasons, they have been extensively used in a wide range of industrial and pharmacological applications. Currently, there is great interest in their production on a large scale. Unfortunately, conventional techniques do not provi...
