Six novel strains containing phbCAB and vgb with or without lytic genes were constructed. Strain VG1 (pTU14), in which vgb, phbCAB and S-RRz could all be successfully expressed, has superior characteristics in cell growth and PHB accumulation, while the results of strains containing vgb and phbCAB without S- RRz were not better than that of strains harbored ph&CAB only. The simultaneous expression of vgb and S- RRz in the recombinant VG1 (pTU14) showed a great potential for low-cost production of PHB.展开更多

The dissolution of the expressed IFN 2b in inclusion body was carried out and it was found that the optimal condition to dissolve the expressed protein was 7 mol稬1guanidinium salt solution at pH 3.0. The resultant solution was diluted 20 times using pH 6.0 buffer to refold the protein correctly. The cation exchange column was employed to purify both refolded and soluble IFN 2b. For soluble IFN sample, high IFN 2b recovery yield (92.1%) with 91.7% purity was obtained in the eluate. However, for refolded IFN sample, only 72.7% of IFN 2b was recovered with relatively low purity (56.8%) by cation exchange chromatography. Although the expression level of insoluble IFN was higher than that of co-expressed soluble IFN in this recombinant E. coli cells, the productivity of bioactive IFN 2b was higher with soluble expressed IFN after primary purification process. Soluble expression of foreign proteins in recombinant bacteria might be an alternative strategy for efficient production of heterogeneous pro-teins due to high bioactivity and simple downstream protein purification process.展开更多
