Abstract: | Background In the interest of generating large amounts of recombinant protein, inducible systems have been studied to maximize both the
growth of the culture and the production of foreign proteins. Even though thermo-inducible systems were developed in the late
1970's, the number of studies that focus on strategies for the implementation at bioreactor scale is limited. In this work,
the bacteriophage lambda PL promoter is once again investigated as an inducible element but for the production of green fluorescent protein (GFP). Culture
temperature, induction point, induction duration and number of inductions were considered as factors to maximize GFP production
in a 20-L bioreactor. |
