RelE-mediated dormancy is enhanced at high cell density in Escherichia coli.

media and specific growth rate selection for high-cell-density cultivation of recombinant escherichia coli producing hGM-CSF in fed-batch process

Optimization of secretory expression of recombinant hGM-CSF in high cell density cultivation of recombinant Escherichia coli using Taguchi statistical method

Human granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (hGM-CSF) has many therapeutic applications.In this study, in order to verify the purification process, the effect of carbon source, IPTG concentration andpost-induction time on the secretion of recombinant hGM-CSF into the culture medium by recombinantEscherichia coli during high cell density cultivation were evaluated by...

Structural mechanism of transcriptional autorepression of the Escherichia coli RelB/RelE antitoxin/toxin module.

The Escherichia coli chromosomal relBE operon encodes a toxin-antitoxin system, which is autoregulated by its protein products, RelB and RelE. RelB acts as a transcriptional repressor and RelE functions as a cofactor to enhance the repressor activity of RelB. Here, we present the NMR-derived structure of a RelB dimer and show that a RelB dimer recognizes a hexad repeat in the palindromic operat...

Effects of ackA, pta and poxB inhibition by antisense RNA on acetate excretion and recombinant beta interferon expression in Escherichia coli

Introduction: Escherichia coli (E.coli) is one of the most widely used hosts for the production of recombinant proteins. The main problem in getting high product yields and productivity is the accumulation of acetic acid (acetate) as an unwanted metabolic by-product. In this study, an antisense-based strategy as a metabolic engineering approach was employed to hamper the acetate excretion probl...

Physiological and Morphological Changes of Recombinant E. coli During Over-Expression of Human Interferon-g in HCDC

The objective of this research was to investigate the influence of the over-expression of recombinant interferon-g during high cell density cultivation on cellular characteristics of recombinant E. coli. Batch and fed-batch culture techniques were employed to grow Escherichia coli BL21 for production of human gamma-interferon in pET expression system. Final cell densities in batch and fed-batch...
