Abstract

Overproduction of recombinant mecasermin was achieved by investigation of effect of three factors, temperature, inducer amount, and culture media, at three levels according to the Taguchi statistical design in Escherichia coli in a bench-scale bioreactor. In optimal conditions (induction temperature 28 °C, terrific broth with glucose (TB+G) medium, with 0.1 mM IPTG as inducer) 0.84 g/L mecasermin with expression levels of 38% of total protein and 4.13 g/L final dry cell biomass was produced, that is one of the highest values of recombinant protein has been reported in the batch system. The cell disruption was done by lysozyme pretreatment with sonication to the efficient purification of mecasermin. The isolated and washed inclusion bodies were solubilized in Gdn-HCl at pH 5.4 and folded with glutathione and purified with gel filtration. The purified rhIGF-1 (mecasermin) was formulated with arginine. Mecasermin protein remained t stable at 4 °C for up to 2 years. The quantitative and qualitative control indicated that mecasermin is expressed correctly (without the initial methionine by mass spectrometry), pure (without endotoxin and other protein impurities), correct folding (FTIR, RF-HPLC), monomer form (SEC-HPLC), and active (...Continue Reading

Bioreactors (ASM)

Bioreactors are important devices or systems that utilize living cells or enzymes for a chemical process. These devices carefully control and monitor the environment factors such as pH, nutrients level, and temperature, which can affect the yield in a given process. Discover the latest research here.
