Development of the Fc-III Tagged Protein Expression System for Protein Purification and Detection
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the present work, we developed the Fc-III tagged protein expression system for protein purification and detection. The Fc-III sequence encodes for a 13 residue peptide and this peptide is cyclized by disulfide bond formation when the fusion protein is expressed. The Fc-III-fusion proteins selectively bind to immunoglobulin Fc domains (IgG-Fc) expressed from E. coli. We showed the efficient purification of Fc-III tagged proteins by immobilized non-native IgG-Fc and the detection of the cellular locations of fusion proteins by fluorescent-conjugated IgG-Fc. Our results prove that Fc-III tagged protein expression system is a simple and efficient tool for protein purification and detection and is a useful addition to the biochemistry and proteomics toolbox.

Cloning, Expression and Purification of Creatininase From Pseudomonas Pseudoalkaligene KF707 in E. coli.
Creatinine amidohydrolase(EC 3.5.2.10) catalyzes the reversible conversion of creatinine to creatine. Creatininase in combination with other enzymes is used for detection of creatinine in serum and urine which is of significant value for detection of renal, muscular and thyroid functions. The aim of this study was to produce recombinant creatininase enzyme in E.coli expression system to use it ...

Background and Aims: Enzybiotics are probably the future line of weapons against drug resistant bacteria. They lyse bacteria with the new mechanisms with few likelihood of generating resistance. LasA, which is secreted from Pseudomonas strains degrades Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) cell wall and has the potential to use against drug resistant S. aureus infections. Materials and Metho...

So far, recombinant antigens of HIV-1, the etiologic cause of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), have been widely used for the diagnosis and vaccine development. P17 or the matrix protein formed by the proteolytic cleavage of gag is strongly antigenic and is as conserved and immunogenic as p24. In some cases, antibodies to p17 are more prevalent than antibodies to p24 and the decline in...

Background: Although a simple and direct method does not exist for the detection of chlamydial infections, there are situations in which reliable serological tests, with sensi-tivity related to a specific antigen, could be helpful. Objective: The aim of this study was to clone the first 1100 bp of the C. trachomatis outer membrane protein 2 (omp2) gene in order to prepare a recombinant protein ...
