Expression and activation of an esterase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa 1001 in Escherichia coli

An expression vector was constructed to overproduce a maltose binding protein (MBP)-esterase fusion protein in Escherichia coli. Soluble fusion protein was separated by centrifugation after cell disruption. The fusion protein was partially purified with amylose resin. The higher concentration of fusion protein (above 2 mg/ml) did not show any activity but about 0.3 mg/ml of fusion protein had the highest activity (142 U/ml). It is due to the difficulty of contact between substrate and active site of enzyme in compact form at high concentration. The fusion protein over-expressed could not be separated into MBP and esterase by the action of protease ‘Factor Xa’. The esterase could be cleaved from MBP fusion protein by the treatment of SDS with the Factor Xa, and the resulting esterase activity was increased to 34% after cleavage.

Purification of recombinant proteins based on the interaction between a phenothiazine-derivatized column and a calmodulin fusion tail.

A method to purify proteins by fusing them to the Ca2+-dependent protein calmodulin is described by using glutathione-S-transferase (GST) from Schistosoma japonicum as a model. Glutathione-S-transferase was genetically fused to calmodulin (CaM). The designed GST-CaM fusion protein has a selective factor Xa cleavage site located between the C-terminus of GST and the N-terminus of CaM. The recombinant fusion protein was expressed in Escherichia coli, and the crude cell extract was loaded onto a phenothiazine affinity column in the presence of Ca2+. Calmodulin was used as an affinity tail to enable binding of the fusion protein to the phenothiazine column. Removal of Ca2+ with a calcium-complexing solution causes elution of the fusion protein. The GST-CaM fusion protein was then digested with factor Xa, and the target protein GST was isolated. The purity of the isolated GST was verified by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE).

Membrane Fusion Promoted by Increasing Surface Densities of the Paramyxovirus F and HN Proteins: Comparison of Fusion Reactions Mediated by Simian Virus 5 F, Human Parainfluenza Virus Type 3 F, and Influenza Virus HA

The membrane fusion reaction promoted by the paramyxovirus simian virus 5 (SV5) and human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV-3) fusion (F) proteins and hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) proteins was characterized when the surface densities of F and HN were varied. Using a quantitative content mixing assay, it was found that the extent of SV5 F-mediated fusion was dependent on the surface density of the SV5 F protein but independent of the density of SV5 HN protein, indicating that HN serves only a binding function in the reaction. However, the extent of HPIV-3 F protein promoted fusion reaction was found to be dependent on surface density of HPIV-3 HN protein, suggesting that the HPIV-3 HN protein is a direct participant in the fusion reaction. Analysis of the kinetics of lipid mixing demonstrated that both initial rates and final extents of fusion increased with rising SV5 F protein surface densities, suggesting that multiple fusion pores can be active during SV5 F protein-promoted membrane fusion. Initial rates and extent of lipid mixing were also found to increase with increasing influenza virus hemagglutinin protein surface density, suggesting parallels between the mechanism of fusion promoted by these two viral fusion proteins.

Purification and immunogenicity of a recombinant Bordetella pertussis S1S3FHA fusion protein expressed by Streptococcus gordonii

Acellular pertussis vaccines typically consist of antigens isolated from Bordetella pertussis, and pertussis toxin (PT) and filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) are two prominent components. One of the disadvantages of a multiple-component vaccine is the cost associated with the production of the individual components. In this study, we constructed an in-frame fusion protein consisting of PT fragments (179 amino acids of PT subunit S1 and 180 amino acids of PT subunit S3) and a 456-amino-acid type I domain of FHA. The fusion protein was expressed by the commensal oral bacterium Streptococcus gordonii. The fusion protein was secreted into the culture medium as an expected 155-kDa protein, which was recognized by a polyclonal anti-PT antibody, a monoclonal anti-S1 antibody, and a monoclonal anti-FHA antibody. The fusion protein was purified from the culture supernatant by affinity and gel permeation chromatography. The immunogenicity of the purified fusion protein was assessed in BALB/c mice by performing parenteral and mucosal immunization experiments. When given parenterally, the fusion protein elicited a very strong antibody titer against the FHA type I domain, a moderate titer against native FHA, and a weak titer against PT. When given mucosally, it elicited a systemic response and a mucosal response to FHA and PT. In Western blots, the immune sera recognized the S1, S3, and S2 subunits of PT. These data collectively indicate that fragments of the pertussis vaccine components can be expressed in a single fusion protein by S. gordonii and that the fusion protein is immunogenic. This multivalent fusion protein approach may be used in designing a new generation of acellular pertussis vaccines.     

A simple method for the purification of an antimicrobial peptide in recombinant Escherichia coli

A magainin derivative, designated MSI-344, was produced in Escherichia coli as fusion protein, by utilizing a truncated amidophsphoribosyltransferase of E. coli as a fusion partner. Bacterial cells transformed with the gene encoding the fusion protein were grown to a high cell density and induced with isopropyl-1-thio-b-D-galatoside (IPTG) to initiate product expression. The fusion protein was accumulated into cytoplasmic inclusion body and recombinant MSI-344 was released from the fusion partner by hydroxylamine treatment. Following cleavage of the fusion protein with hydroxylamine, the released MSI-344 was purified to homogeneity by cationic exchange chromatography. The final purity was at least 95% by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). Purified recombinant MSI-344 was found to be indistinguishable from the synthetic peptide determined by amino acid sequences and antimicrobial activity assay.

Purification of human interleukin-2 fusion protein produced in insect larvae is facilitated by fusion with green fluorescent protein and metal affinity ligand

The fusion protein of green fluorescent protein (GFP) and human interleukin-2 (hIL-2) was produced in insect Trichoplusia ni larvae infected with recombinant baculovirus derived from the Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcNPV). This fusion protein was composed of a metal ion binding site (His)6 for rapid one-step purification using immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC), UV-optimized GFP (GFPuv), enterokinase cleavage site for recovering hIL-2 from purified fusion protein, and hIL-2 protein. The additional histidine residues on fusion protein enabled the efficient purification of fusion protein based on immobilized metal affinity chromatography. In addition to advantages of GFP as a fusion marker, GFP was able to be used as a selectable purification marker; we easily determined the correct purified fusion protein sample fraction by simply detecting GFP fluorescence.     

Expression and characterization of a DNase I-Fc fusion enzyme

Recombinant human deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) is an important clinical agent that is inhaled into the airways where it degrades DNA to lower molecular weight fragments, thus reducing the viscoelasticity of sputum and improving the lung function of cystic fibrosis patients. To investigate DNases with potentially improved properties, we constructed a molecular fusion of human DNase I with the hinge and Fc region of human IgG1 heavy chain, creating a DNase I-Fc fusion protein. Infection of Sf9 insect cells with recombinant baculovirus resulted in the expression and secretion of the DNase I-Fc fusion protein. The fusion protein was purified from the culture medium using protein A affinity chromatography followed by desalting by gel filtration and was characterized by amino-terminal sequence, amino acid composition, and a variety of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and activity assays. The purified fusion contains DNase I, as determined by a DNase I ELISA and an actin-binding ELISA, and an intact antibody Fc region, which was quantified by an Fc ELISA, in a 2:1 stoichiometric ratio, respectively. The dimeric DNase I-Fc fusion was functionally active in enzymatic DNA digestion assays, albeit about 10-fold less than monomeric DNase I. Cleavage of the DNase I-Fc fusion by papain resulted in a specific activity comparable to the monomeric enzyme. Salt was inhibitory for wild type monomeric DNase I but actually enhanced the activity of the dimeric DNase I-Fc fusion. The DNase I-Fc fusion protein was also less Ca2+-dependent than DNase I itself. These results are consistent with a higher affinity of the dimeric fusion protein to DNA than monomeric DNase I. The engineered DNase I-Fc fusion protein described herein has properties that may have clinical benefits.

High-level expression of human insulin-like growth factor II in Escherichia coli.

A gene encoding mature human insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) was constructed from the modified IGF-II cDNA sequence and two double-stranded synthetic oligodeoxynucleotide linkers. It was fused to a truncated lacZ gene such that IGF-II was expressed as part of C-terminus of beta-galactosidase. This fused lacZ'-IGF-II gene was under the control of tac promoter and we overproduced the beta-galactosidase-IGF-II fusion protein in the Escherichia coli. The fusion protein formed inclusion bodies inside the cells. The fusion protein was purified from the isolated inclusion bodies and IGF-II protein was obtained from their fusion protein by CNBr cleavage. The released IGF-II was confirmed by its molecular weight as determined by SDS-PAGE and by its ability to bind anti-IGF antibody.
