Expression and culture optimization of mini-chaperone GroEL (191-345) in E. coli

The apical domain of GroEL (residues 191-345) is expressed in E. coli to give a functional mini-chaperone, and the refolding yields of scorpion toxin Cn5, cyclophilin A and IGPS assisted by mini-chaperone were improved remarkably. Owing to its potentially broad application, the optimum culture condi...

Description
Summary:The apical domain of GroEL (residues 191-345) is expressed in E. coli to give a functional mini-chaperone, and the refolding yields of scorpion toxin Cn5, cyclophilin A and IGPS assisted by mini-chaperone were improved remarkably. Owing to its potentially broad application, the optimum culture condition of mini-chaperone was studied in detail. M9 medium with carbon source and inorganic salts was found to be suitable for the expression of mini-chaperone GroEL (191-345) in E. coli. M9 medium was then reformulated and the optimum temperature, oxygen demand and induction conditions were carefully chosen to improve the mini-chaperone production to 556.3 mg/L.
