Baculoviruses are one of the most studied insect viruses both in basic virology research and in biotechnology applications. Incorporating an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) into the baculovirus genome generates bi-cistronic baculoviruses expression vectors that produce two genes of interest. The bi-cistronic baculoviruses also facilitate recombinant virus isolation and titer determination when the green fluorescent protein was co-expressed. Furthermore, when the secretion proteins were co-expressed with the cytosolic green fluorescent protein, the cell lysis and cytosolic protein released into the culture medium could be monitored by the green fluorescence, thus facilitating purification of the secreted proteins. 相似文献

An improved, simplified method for the purification of recombinant, tagged DnaA proteins is described. The presented protocol allowed us to purify soluble DnaA proteins from two different bacterial species: Helicobacter pylori and Streptomyces coelicolor, but it can most likely also be used for the isolation of DnaA proteins from other bacteria, as it was adapted for Mycobacterium tuberculosis DnaA. The isolation procedure consists of protein precipitation with ammonium sulphate followed by affinity chromatography. The composition of the buffers used at each purification step is crucial for the successful isolation of the recombinant DnaA proteins. The universality of the method in terms of its application to differently tagged proteins (His-tagged or GST-tagged) as well as different properties of purified proteins (e.g., highly aggregating truncated forms) makes the protocol highly useful for all studies requiring purified and active DnaA proteins. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) belongs to the TNF cytokine superfamily that specifically induces apoptosis in a broad spectrum of human cancer cell lines but not in most healthy cells. The antitumor potential of recombinant human TRAIL (rhTRAIL) has attracted great attention among biologists and oncologists. However, attempts to express rhTRAIL in Escherichia coli often results in limited yield of bioactive protein due to the formation of inclusion bodies (IBs), which are dense insoluble particulate protein aggregates inside cells. We describe herein a highly simplified method to produce pure bioactive rhTRAIL using E. coli. The method is straightforward and requires only basic laboratory equipment, with highly efficient purification and high yield of renaturation, and may also be applied to produce other proteins that form IBs in E. coli. 相似文献

Fed-batch culture can offer significant improvement in recombinant protein production compared to batch culture in the baculovirus expression vector system (BEVS), as shown by Nguyen et al. (1993) and Bedard et al. (1994) among others. However, a thorough analysis of fed-batch culture to determine its limits in improving recombinant protein production over batch culture has yet to be performed. In this work, this issue is addressed by the optimisation of single-addition fed-batch culture. This type of fed-batch culture involves the manual addition of a multi-component nutrient feed to batch culture before infection with the baculovirus. The nutrient feed consists of yeastolate ultrafiltrate, lipids, amino acids, vitamins, trace elements, and glucose, which were added to batch cultures of Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) cells before infection with a recombinant Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcNPV) expressing beta-galactosidase (beta-Gal). The fed-batch production of beta-Gal was optimised using response surface methods (RSM). The optimisation was performed in two stages, starting with a screening procedure to determine the most important variables and ending with a central-composite experiment to obtain a response surface model of volumetric beta-Gal production. The predicted optimum volumetric yield of beta-Gal in fed-batch culture was 2.4-fold that of the best yields in batch culture. This result was confirmed by a statistical analysis of the best fed-batch and batch data (with average beta-Gal yields of 1.2 and 0.5 g/L, respectively) obtained from this laboratory. The response surface model generated can be used to design a more economical fed-batch operation, in which nutrient feed volumes are minimised while maintaining acceptable improvements in beta-Gal yield. 相似文献

A method of production of choline oxidase from Cylindrocarpon-didymum which is of sufficient purity to be used in the enzymatic assaying of choline has been described. The extraction and purification techniques used were ultrasonic disintegration, tangential ultrafiltration, and chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose Fast-Flow and on Sephacryl S 200 gel. The specific activity of the preparation obtained was 7.4 UI/mg of protein. The activity recuperation yield from the cellular extract was 56%. In the course of this purification, a protein displaying catalase activity was also obtained. 相似文献

A two-stage bioreactor system for the production of recombinant proteins using a genetically engineered baculovirus/insect cell system 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A two-stage bioreactor scheme was developed for the large-scale production of recombinant proteins using a genetically engineered baculovirus/insect cell system. The first bioreactor was employed for cell growth and the second for cell infection. Silkworm Bm5 cells were infected with a recombinant baculovirus, BmNPV/P5.cat, containing a bacterial chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) gene under the control of the polyhedrin gene promoter of Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus (BmNPV). This recombinant baculovirus has been used as an expression vector for the production of recombinant CAT enzyme. A specific productivity of 82 to 90 mug CAT/(10(6) cells) was obtained using the BmNPV/Bm5 expression system, a yield similar to that achieved using the AcNPV/Sf expression system. Repeated infection of high-density cell cultures did not reduce the specific productivity of the CAT enzyme. Most importantly, the problems associated with the infection of high-density cell cultures were resolved by means of controlled infection conditions and appropriate replenishment of spent culture medium following infection. The glucose uptake rate by the cells following infection was 50% higher than that by the cells before infection. Not only did the infection of high-density cell cultures result in consistent yields of 250 mg/L of CAT enzyme, but also the two-stage bioreactor system was proven to be reliable for a long-term operation beyond 600 h.

Summary Four insect cell lines were used to isolate two recombinant baculoviruses which had theβ-galactosidase (β-gal) gene for colorimetric assay purposes. Plaque assays were performed using twoTrichoplusia ni cell lines: BTI-TN-5B1-4 and TN-368, and twoSpodoptera frugiperda cell lines: IPLB-SF-21AE and SF9. The number of plaques (occlusion positive and blueβ-gal+ recombinants) formed in theTrichoplusia cells was higher than in theSpodoptera cells. The appearance ofAutographa californica NPV polyhedra was also faster in theT. ni cell lines. The effect of cell passage on the plaque formation proved to be critical when two different passages of the SF9
cells were tested. The higher passage produced a lower viral titration. The size and time of appearance of the plaques was
also different. 相似文献

Summary A continuous culture of insect cells (Spodoptera frugiperda) was used for continuous production of baculovirus (nuclear polyhedrosis virus fromAutographa californica). The system consisted of a cascade of two continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTRs). In CSTR I the insect cells were grown in suspension. This suspension was fed continuously to CSTR II where the virus infection occurred. For a period of about 25 days the average volumetric productivity was about 107 polyhedra (virus particles occluded in protein capsules) and 108 infectious NOVs (non-occluded virus particles) per cm3 effluent. This is equivalent to 25 polyhedra and 250 NOVs per infected cell, respectively. In one case, the percentage of infected cells was 65%, which is close to the theoretical value of 68%. After a run-time of 32 days a decrease of process productivity was observed, probably due to the so-called passage effect, a degeneration of the virus DNA. 相似文献

The baculovirus-expression vector system (BEVS) has been widely used for the experimental production of many human and animal single- and multi-unit vaccines, heterologous proteins, and viral insecticides. In this work, the production of recombinant bluetongue virus core-like particles (CLPs), using Sf9 cells in shaker-suspension culture with the SF900 II medium (GIBCO, NY), has been studied. This system involved the simultaneous production of two proteins, VP7 and VP3, and was shown to achieve high volumetric productivities. The key parameters of the time of infection (TOI), and the multiplicity of infection (MOI) were studied. The results show that the peak-volumetric yields and cell-specific yields achieved using low MOIs at low-cell densities were the same as those obtained following infections with a high MOI at high-cell densities. This work establishes the feasibility of using low MOIs in the baculovirus system to produce complex multiprotein particles. 相似文献

A continuous process of insect cell (S f9) growth and baculovirus infection is tested with the sequential combination of a
CSTR and a tubular reactor. A tubular infection reactor enables continuous introduction of baculovirus and therefore avoids
the ‘passage effect’ observed in two-stage CSTR systems. Moreover, a tubular reactor can be used to test cell infection kinetics
and the subsequent metabolism of infected insect cells. Unlike batch and CSTR culture, cells in a horizontally positioned
tubular reactor settle due to poor mixing. We have overcome this problem by alternately introducing air bubbles and media
and by maintaining a linear velocity sufficient to keep cells suspended. This article addresses the development of the tubular
reactor and demonstrates its use as an infection system that complements the two-stage CSTR.

Most of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesized during glucose metabolism is produced in the mitochondria through oxidative phosphorylation. This is a complex reaction powered by the proton gradient across the mitochondrial inner membrane, which is generated by mitochondrial respiration. A detailed model of this reaction, which includes dynamic equations for the key mitochondrial variables, was developed earlier by Magnus and Keizer. However, this model is extraordinarily complicated. We develop a simpler model that captures the behavior of the original model but is easier to use and to understand. We then use it to investigate the mitochondrial responses to glycolytic and calcium input. We use the model to explain experimental observations of the opposite effects of raising cytosolic Ca(2+)in low and high glucose, and to predict the effects of a mutation in the mitochondrial enzyme nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase (Nnt) in pancreatic beta-cells. 相似文献

Insect cells were exploited to produce bacterial beta-galactosidase by infecting them with a recombinant nuclear polyhedrosis virus (baculovirus) of Autographa californica. The insect cells were cultured in a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) and led to a second CSTR where they were infected with a recombinant virus in which the lacZ gene from Escherichia coli was inserted. In the effluent of the production reactor, maximum activities of 15 units beta-galactosidase per 10(6) cells were measured. For about 25 d beta-galactosidase production remained constant, but then rapidly declined. This drop was due to a decrease in production of active beta-galactosidase rather than to inactivation of this enzyme. It was concluded that the reduced production was due to reduced polyhedrin promoter-driven synthesis. 相似文献
