[ 1 ] - A Nested-Splicing by Overlap Extension PCR Improves Specificity of this Standard Method
Background: Splicing by overlap extension (SOE) PCR is used to create mutation in the coding sequence of an enzyme in order to study the role of specific residues in protein’s structure and function. Objectives: We introduced a nested-SOE-PCR (N –SOE-PCR) in order to increase the specificity and generating mutations in a gene by SOE-PCR. Materials and Methods: Genomic DNA from Bacillus thermo...
[ 2 ] - Optimizing Primary Recovery and Refolding of Human Interferon-b from Escherichia coli Inclusion Bodies
Background: The refolding of proteins from inclusion bodies is affected by several factors, including solubilization of inclusion bodies by denaturants, removal of the denaturant, and assistance of refolding by small molecule additives. Objectives: The purpose of this study was optimization of recombinant human interferon-b purification in order to achieve higher efficiency, yield, and a produ...
