Efficient and stable expression of recombinant fibronectin polypeptides.
We describe retroviral expression vectors containing cDNAs encoding part of fibronectin preceded by the signal and "pro" sequences of parathyroid hormone. The recombinant retroviruses were used to generate NIH 3T3 cell lines stably producing functionally active fragments of fibronectin. The recombinant fibronectins (deminectins) are processed and secreted by the cells and form disulfide-bonded ...
متن کاملExpressed protein ligation: a new tool for the biosynthesis of cyclic polypeptides.
The present paper reviews the use of expressed protein ligation for the biosynthesis of backbone cyclized polypeptides. This general method allows the in vivo and in vitro biosynthesis of cyclic polypeptides using recombinant DNA expression techniques. Biosynthetic access to backbone cyclic peptides opens the possibility to generate cell-based combinatorial libraries that can be screened inside...
متن کاملRecombinant supercharged polypeptides restore and improve biolubrication.
Recombinant supercharged polypeptides (SUPs) with low cytotoxicity are developed and applied to rejuvenate the lubrication of naturally occurring salivary conditioning films (SCFs). SUPs with 72 positive charges adsorbed and rigidified the SCFs and recruited mucins to form a hydrated layer. These SCFs with SUPs have higher mechanical strength and sustain lubricating effect for longer duration c...
متن کاملCloning, Expression, Purification and CD Analysis of Recombinant Human Betatrophin
Betatrophin is a member of the angiopoietin-like (ANGPTL) family that has been implicated in both triglyceride and glucose metabolism. The physiological functions and molecular targets of this protein remain largely unknown; hence, a purified available protein would aid study of the exact role of betatrophin in lipid or glucose metabolism. In this study, we cloned the full-length cDNA of betatr...
متن کاملConstruction and Eukaryotic Expression of Recombinant Large Hepatitis Delta Antigen
Background: Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is a subviral human pathogen that exploits host RNA editing activity to produce two essential forms of the sole viral protein, hepatitis delta antigen (HDAg). Editing at the amber/W site of HDV antigenomic RNA leads to the production of the large form (L-HDAg), which is required for RNA packaging. Methods: In this study, PCR-based site-directed mutagen...
