19F NMR spectroscopy monitors ligand binding to recombinantly fluorine-labelled b'x from human protein disulphide isomerase (hPDI) [PDF]
We report a protein-observe (19)F NMR-based ligand titration binding study of human PDI b'x with ?-somatostatin that also emphasises the need to optimise recombinant protein fluorination when using 5- or 6-fluoroindole.

Engineering a novel endopeptidase based on SARS 3CLpro
A 3C-like protease (3CLpro) from the severe acute respiratory syndrome–coronavirus (SARS-CoV) is required for viral replication, cleaving the replicase polyproteins at 11 sites with the conserved Gln↓(Ser, Ala, Gly) sequences. In this study, we developed

Russell-like bodies in plant seeds share common features with prolamin bodies and occur upon recombinant protein production [PDF]
Although many recombinant proteins have been produced in seeds at high yields without adverse effects on the plant, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and aberrant localization of endogenous or recombinant proteins have also been reported.

Multi-Compartment and Multi-Host Vector Suite for Recombinant Protein Expression and Purification
Recombinant protein expression has become an invaluable tool in basic and applied research. The accumulated knowledge in this field allowed the expression of thousands of protein targets in a soluble, pure, and homogeneous state, essential for ...

Molecular cloning and expression of novel fibroblast growth factor-2 conjugated with immunodominant domains of pseudomonas exotoxin [PDF]
Angiogenesis is very important in cancer growth and metastasis. Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) as one of the most important angiogenesis factors is an attractive target for cancer vaccine.

Noncontiguous SCHEMA Protein Recombination [PDF]
SCHEMA is a method of designing protein recombination libraries that contain a large fraction of functional proteins with a high degree of mutational diversity. In the previous chapter, we illustrated the method for designing libraries by swapping contiguous sequence elements.

Recombination of Fragmented Proteins [PDF]
Directed evolution is a powerful method for generating novel molecules with desirable properties. In developing a new sensor to screen for protein-protein interactions, Tafelmeyer et al. report a clever strategy to evolve heterodimeric "split proteins" from a monomer in this issue of Chemistry & Biology.

Recombinant Protein Stability in Cyanobacteria [PDF]
The living cell possesses extraordinary molecular and biochemical mechanisms by which to recognize and efficiently remove foreign, damaged, or denatured proteins. This essential function has been a barrier to the overexpression of recombinant proteins in most expression systems. A notable exception is the overexpression in E.

C2238/αANP modulates apolipoprotein E through Egr-1/miR199a in vascular smooth muscle cells in vitro [PDF]
Subjects carrying the T2238C ANP gene variant have a higher risk to suffer a stroke or myocardial infarction. The mechanisms through which T2238C/αANP exerts detrimental vascular effects need to be fully clarified.
