Enhancement of Expression Level of Modified t-PA (TNKase) in Leishmania tarentolae by Induction System

Background: The expression of bio-therapeutic proteins in mammalian cells, such as CHO, attains high homogeneity related to post-translational modifications. Although CHO remains the most popular cell line for bestselling biotherapeutic proteins on the market, there are still drawbacks such as expensive culture media, long time line, and high drug cost. Recently, researches on a novel Leishmani...

Expressional Comparison Between Episomal and Stable Transfection of a Selected tri-fusion Protein in Leishmania tarentolae

  Introduction: Leishmania tarentolae (L. tarentolae) is a nonpathogenic species of Leishmania genus that can be used as an expression system to produce immunogenic proteins or epitopes in vivo acting as an efficient and safe recombinant live vector in vaccinology. Cysteine proteases (CPs) are one group of Family C1 peptidases in Leishmania that are important for survival of the parasite within...

Leishmania tarentolae as a host for heterologous expression of functional human ABCB6 transporter.

The need for large amounts of reproducibly produced and isolated protein arises not only in structural studies, but even more so in biochemical ones, and with regard to ABC transporters it is especially pressing when faced with the prospect of enzymatic/transport activity studies, substrate screening etc. Thus, reliable heterologous expression systems/model organisms for large and complex prote...

Characterization of two classes of ribonucleoprotein complexes possibly involved in RNA editing from Leishmania tarentolae mitochondria.

The molecular mechanism of RNA editing in trypanosomatid mitochondria is an unsolved problem. We show that two classes of ribonucleoprotein complexes exist in a mitochondrial extract from Leishmania tarentolae and appear to be involved in RNA editing. The 'G' class of RNP complexes consists of 170-300 A particles which contain guide RNAs and proteins, show little terminal uridylyl transferase (...
