Abstract:

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 in creatinine assay kit. The pseudomonas pseudoalkaligene KF707 creatininase gene has been optimized and synthesized already. Subsequently, it has been subcloned into the pET28 expression vector then the expression vector has been transformed into the BL21 (DE3) cell and induced by IPTG, afterwards the expression has been evaluated using SDS-PAGE and western blot. The recombinant protein has been purified by Ni-NTA agarose resins and enzyme activity has been analyzed. A sharp 29kDa protein band has been observed on SDS-PAGE and confirmed by western blot. More than 40% of E.coli total protein was recombinant creatinase, The recombinant enzyme was purified with approximately 100% yield. The enzyme activity analysis showed that recombinant enzyme has 14 unit/ml activity. Recombinant p.pseudoalkaligene KF707 creatininase was produced for the first time and its good production yield confirmed that E.coli was an efficient expression system for its production.

Cloning and expression of rhl AB operon under the control of tac promoter in E. coli

Today, efforts go towards the replacement of chemical surfactants by natural biological biosurfactants (biosurfactant), as these materials are not carcinogenic and highly compatibile with the environment. One of the main classes of biosurfactants is rhamnose containing glycolipid biosurfactant (rhamnolipids). This type of biosurfactants can be applied in many industries such as oil industry, ph...

CLONING AND EXPRESSION OF A HUMAN INTERFERON a2 GENE IN E. COLI

The plasmid pALCA1SIFN containing cDNA that encodes the human interferon a-2b was obtained from the ATCC(no. 531667). In this system the expression of the gene is under the control of an alcA promoter. alcA p is a specific promoter for expression of different genes in Aspergillusfilamentous. In this plasmid the coding region of IFN?-2b is preceded by the coding region of a synthetic signal ...

Cloning and Expression of Coxsakievirus B3 Viral Protein-1 in E. Coli

Viral protein-1 (VP1) is a major capsid protein of Coxsakievirus B3 (CVB3) that plays an important role in directing viruses towards permissive cells and acts as a main antigenic site of the virus in eliciting of host immune response, hence it seems VP1 can be considered as a vaccine candidate against CVB3 infection. In this study, cDNA of VP1 was prepared, cloned into pET expression vector and...
