the µ (mu) opioid receptors, which mediate the effects of morphine, are widely distributed in brain. the purpose of this study was to design a simple expression system for rat µ-receptor in escherichia coli (bl21). in this laboratory study, rat µ-receptor cdna was isolated from pcdna3 vector using xba1 and hind3 restriction enzymes. pet-15b was digested by nco1 restriction enzyme. µ-receptor cd...

cloning and sequencing of a lipase gene from an indigenous bacillus pumilus, strain f3, revealed an open-reading frame of 648 nucleotides predicted to encode a protein of 215 residues. sequence analysis showed that f3 lipase contained a signal peptide composed of 34 amino acids with an h domain of 18 residues. a tat-like motif was found in the signal peptide similar to some other bacillus pumil...

Escherichia coli strain BL21 is one of the widely used bacterial hosts for high-level recombinant protein production and for other applications. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of a commercial version of the Escherichia coli BL21 strain.

Here we describe a half-semester biochemistry laboratory course based on the expression, isolation, purification, and biochemical characterization of RecJ nuclease. The students transformed expression plasmid thermostable nuclease into host bacteria Escherichia coli BL21(DE3), to induce recombinant by IPTG. expressed was purified from cell lysates broken with sonication Ni-affinity chromatograp...

Background & Aims: Vibrio cholerae is a gram-negative bacterial pathogen that causes cholera disease. Following ingestion by a host and entry into the upper intestine, V. cholera colonizes and begins to emit enterotoxin. One of the most pathogenic factors of Vibrio cholera is toxin-coregulated pili (TCP). ToxinCoregulated pili is as the primary factor requiered for the colonization and insisten...

Escherichia coli BLR(DE3) is a commercially available recA-deficient derivative of BL21(DE3), one of the most widely used strains for recombinant protein expression. Here, we present the full-genome sequence of BLR(DE3) and highlight additional differences with its parent strain BL21(DE3) which were previously unreported but may affect its physiology.

Overproduced proteins from Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) were efficiently released with virulent bacteriophages. Leviviridae-like bacteriophages were isolated from soil and used to lyse BL21(DE3) cells transformed with beta-glucosidase, chitinase, or chitosanase genes. This method caused lysis of bacterial cells similar to that by conventional sonication and enabled us to effectively recover and p...

Mpro is one of the most important drug targets novel Coronavirus. In this study, a series potential compounds were obtained through virtual screening targeting Mpro. Using key protease (Mpro) SARS-COV-2 as lead target for has become hot topic in current virus research. plays role replication and transcription. Therefore, experimental strain Escherichia coli containing commonly used to inhibit d...
