Expression of Biologically Active Recombinant B-Domain-Deleted Human Factor VIII in Mammalian Cells

Bacterial Expression and Purification of C1C2 Domain of Human Factor VIII

With the aim of the production of human factor VIII antigen and its corresponding antibody an epitope coding fragment of the light-chain of hFVIII, fused to a His6-tag, was isolated and over-expressed in Escherichia coli. The over-expressed hFVIII-epitope containing peptide was confirmed by its reaction with a rabbit serum directed against native hFVIII as well as antiHis6-tag antibody. An expr...

B-Domain deleted recombinant coagulation factor VIII modified with monomethoxy polyethylene glycol.

Recombinant coagulation factor VIII (r-VIII SQ) was chemically modified with monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (mPEG). Three mPEG derivatives were used for coupling to the r-VIII SQ lysines, a mixed anhydride of monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol) succinic acid (mPEG-SAH), monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol) succinimidyl succinate (mPEG-SS), and monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol) tresylate (mPEG-TRE...

Human coagulation factor VIII domain-specific recombinant polypeptide expression

BACKGROUND Hemophilia A is caused by heterogeneous mutations in F8. Coagulation factor VIII (FVIII), the product of F8, is composed of multiple domains designated A1-A2-B-A3-C1-C2. FVIII is known to interact with diverse proteins, and this characteristic may be important for hemostasis. However, little is known about domain-specific functions or their specific binding partners. METHODS To det...

The Effects of Novel Mutations in A1 Domain of Human Coagulation Factor VIII on Its Secretion Level in Cultured Mammalian Cells

Inefficient secretion of the human coagulation factor (hFVIII) in mammalian expression systems is one ofthe main causes of the hFVIII low expression level, attributed to its interaction with a chaperone known asBiP/GRP78. In order to improve secretion efficiency of the hFVIII, based on the higher secretion level of theporcine FVIII and analysis of the hFVIII A110 region, that ...

Expression of functional recombinant human procathepsin B in mammalian cells.

Cathepsin B has been implicated in numerous pathobiological processes. In order to study its interactions with other proteins implicated in these processes, quantities of functional recombinant cathepsin B are needed. Therefore, we expressed recombinant human procathepsin B in mammalian cells (BSC-1 monkey kidney cells and HeLa human cervical carcinoma cells) using a vaccinia virus expression s...
