Abstract:Sedimentation field-flow fractionation (sedFFF) was evaluated to characterize the size of Delta(4-23)TEM-beta-lactamase inclusion bodies (IBs) overexpressed in fed-batch cultivations of Escherichia coli. Heterologous Delta(4-23)TEM-beta-lactamase protein formed different sizes of IBs, depending upon the induction conditions. In the early phases of recombinant protein expression, induced with low concentrations of IPTG (isopropyl-beta-d-thiogalactoside), IB masses were larger than expected and showed heterogeneous size distributions. During cultivation, IB sizes showed a Gaussian distribution and reached a broad range by the end of the fed-batch cultivations. The obtained result proved the aptitude of sedFFF to rapidly assess the size distribution of IBs in a culture.
