Recombinant Expression of the Non-glycosylated Extracellular Domain of Human Transforming Growth Factorβ Type II Receptor Using the Baculovirus Expression System in Sf21 Insect Cells
Transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ1, β2, and β3) are 25 kDa disulfide-linked homodimers that regulate many aspects of cellular functions, consist of proliferation, differentiation, adhesion and extracellular matrix formation. TGFβs mediate their biological activities by binding of growth factor ligand to two related, functionally distinct, single-pass transmembrane receptor kinases, known as...
متن کاملEngineering and characterization of a baculovirus-expressed mouse/human chimeric antibody against transferrin receptor.
Transferrin receptor (TfR) has been explored as a target for antibody-based therapy of cancer. In the previous study, we reported a murine anti-TfR monoclonal antibody (mAb) 7579 had good anti-tumor activities in vitro. In an attempt to reduce its immunogenicity and enhance its ability to recruit immune effector mechanism in vivo, we herein developed its chimera in the baculovirus/insect cell e...
متن کاملHigh-yield production of functionally active human serum transferrin using a baculovirus expression system, and its structural characterization.
Recently, there has been much interest in expressing recombinant human serum transferrin (HST) and mutants thereof for structural and functional studies. We have developed a baculovirus expression system for the rapid and efficient production of large quantities of HST (> 20 mg/l). Like native HST, the recombinant protein can bind two ferric ions in the presence of bicarbonate, and is actively ...
متن کاملBiologically active monomeric and heterodimeric recombinant human calpain I produced using the baculovirus expression system.
Calpain I is a heterodimeric protein that is part of a family of calcium-activated intracellular cysteine proteases presumed to play a role in mediating signals transduced by calcium. Expression of bioactive recombinant human calpain I has been achieved using the baculovirus expression system, by either co-infection with two viruses, each expressing one of the subunits, or infection with a sing...
