Editorial: Protein Solubility and Aggregation in Bacteria
For many years, the aggregation of proteins and polypeptides remained a neglected area of protein chemistry. It was only with the discovery that the insoluble deposits found in the organs and tissues of patients suffering from different diseases were enriched in a single, but different polypeptide, that the interest in understanding how and why these proteins aggregate arose (Fernàndez-Busquets...
متن کاملPrediction of protein solubility from calculation of transfer free energy.
Solubility plays a major role in protein purification, and has serious implications in many diseases. We studied the effects of pH and mutations on protein solubility by calculating the transfer free energy from the condensed phase to the solution phase. The condensed phase was modeled as an implicit solvent, with a dielectric constant lower than that of water. To account for the effects of pH,...
متن کاملSequence determinants of protein aggregation: tools to increase protein solubility
Escherichia coli is one of the most widely used hosts for the production of recombinant proteins. However, very often the target protein accumulates into insoluble aggregates in a misfolded and biologically inactive form. Bacterial inclusion bodies are major bottlenecks in protein production and are hampering the development of top priority research areas such structural genomics. Inclusion bod...
متن کاملComputational models for the prediction of polypeptide aggregation propensity.
In amyloid fibrils, beta-strand conformations of polypeptide chains, or segments thereof, are perpendicular to the fibril axis, but knowledge of their three dimensional structure at atomic level of detail is scarce. Two types of computational approaches have been developed recently for investigating the aggregation propensity of peptides and proteins and identifying the segments most prone to f...
متن کاملSequence-based prediction of protein solubility.
In order to investigate the relationship between the thermodynamics and kinetics of protein aggregation, we compared the solubility of proteins with their aggregation rates. We found a significant correlation between these two quantities by considering a database of protein solubility values measured using an in vitro reconstituted translation system containing about 70% of Escherichia coli pro...
