Expression of recombinant proteins in Escherichia coli (E. coli) remains the most popular and cost-effective method for producing proteins in basic research and for pharmaceutical applications. Despite accumulating experience and methodologies developed over the years, production of recombinant proteins prone to aggregate in E. coli-based systems poses a major challenge in most research applica...

background: shigellosis is a leading cause of diarrhea in many developing countries and although the disease can be controlled and managed with antibiotics, the constant emergence of resistant species requiring ever newer antibacterial drugs make development of an effective vaccine necessary. the bacteria are highly contagious and since immunity to shigella is serotype-specific a multi-serotype...

objective: bone morphogenetic protein-7 (bmp-7) is a multifunctional growth factor predominantly recognized for its osteoinductive properties. due to the high cost of this protein, the availability of bmp-7 for treatment is limited. the heterologous production of recombinant hbmp-7 has been performed in a number of expression systems. in this study a novel form of bmp-7 was expressed in eukaryo...

reteplase is a part of tissue plasminogen activator (t-pa) used for theremoval of thrombi in blood vessels. in the present study we express the reteplase genein escherichia coli top10 and then its thrombolytic activity was measured. the recombinant plasmid pbadgiiia was transformed into the competent escherichia coli top10 and then transformed bacteria was seeded into bioreactor containing 1.5 ...

background: escherichia coli (e. coli) is the most extensively used host for the production of recombinant proteins. however, most of the eukaryotic proteins are typically obtained as insoluble, misfolded inclusion bodies that need solubilization and refolding. reteplase as a highly disulfide-bonded recombinant protein is an example of difficult to express protein in e. coli. methods: in this s...

Objective(s): Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one of the most effective proteins in angiogenesis, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) differentiation and wound healing. These abilities are therapeutic potential of VEGF in diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy and other tissue damage circumstances. In this study, recombinant VEGF was produced in Escherichia coli (E. coli) system and then biol...

Background and Aims: Q59L mutant of L-asparaginase enzyme from Escherichia coli (E. coli) has been introduced with lower side effects. This version of the enzyme might have potential applications in the treatment of leukemia patients. We utilized SHuffle T7 strain of E. coli, to produce the mutant enzyme in the presence of chaperone molecules. Materials and Methods: Q59LAsp gene was cloned in...

Aeromonas hydrophila is a gram-negative bacterium which associated with gastrointestinal diseases and septicaemia. This pathogenic bacterium has several virulence factors ranging from pili to the excreted protein which called (Aerolysin) with minor and major effects, respectively. Additionally, Aeromonas hydrophila is a widely distributed bacterium that commonly causes ulcers in cyprinid fish s...

objective: escherichia coli o157:h7 is a gram-negative rod-shaped bacterium. e coli o157:h7 is an enterohemorrhagic (ehec) strain of the bacterium escherichia coli and a cause of foodborne illness. infection often leads to bloody diarrhea by producing a toxin called shiga toxin, which damages the intestines, and occasionally leads to kidney failure, especially in young children and elderly peop...

the objective of this research was to investigate the influence of the over-expression of recombinant interferon-g during high cell density cultivation on cellular characteristics of recombinant e. coli. batch and fed-batch culture techniques were employed to grow escherichia coli bl21 for production of human gamma-interferon in pet expression system. final cell densities in batch and fed-batch...
