51	Investigating Escherichia coli-based Cell Free Protein Expression Systems Gutu, Nicoleta 10 1900 (has links) Synthesizing proteins for use in therapeutics is restrained by, in part, contaminants in in vivo expression systems and limited production capacity of in vitro systems. Cell free expression (CFE) systems have emerged as a potential alternative for protein expression because of the inherently lower contents of contaminants, and their flexible modular design that allows the addition of factors that aid in synthesis of complex products. Here, we investigate and establish an in-house Escherichia coli-based cell free protein synthesis (CFPS) system, explore different CFPS commercial kits, develop assays to test performance of these systems and identify potential rules that dictate expression levels. Using CFE, we were able to test different vectors and conditions of system, as well as scale-up protein synthesis reactions. In conclusion, this work shows that CFPS is a functional and easy-to-use platform and can potentially meet the requirements for the synthesis of therapeutics. cell-free protein expression cell-free protein synthesis cell free protein expression cell free protein synthesis cell-free expression prokaryotic cell-free system E. coli-based cell-free system synthetic biology expression cell-free translation cell-free transcription in vitro synthesis in vitro protein synthesis in vitro expression in vitro protein expression nanobody SARS-CoV-2 anti-SARS-CoV-2 nanobody cell free expression vector cell-free expression vector in-house cell-free synthesis in house cell-free synthesis in-house cell free synthesis in house cell free synthesis cell-free extract
52	Purification, functional characterization and crystallization of the PerR peroxide sensor from Saccharopolyspora erythraea Elison Kalman, Grim January 2019 (has links) This report summarizes the work on the cloning, expression, and purification of PerR, a metal sensing regulator from Saccharopolyspora erythraea and the subsequent characterization using small angle X-ray scattering and other biochemical methods. The report aims to provide an insight into prokaryotic metal homeostasis, provide a better understanding of how PerR works and provide valuable information for the continued work on the crystallization of PerR. structural biology cell culture protein expression genetic engineering spectroscopy X-ray crystallography small angle X-ray scattering SAXS transcription factor PerR metal binding antibiotics Saccharopolyspora erythraea S. erythraea soil bacterium actinobacteria actinomycetes oxidative stress peroxide stress structure determination characterization stabilization peroxide sensor iron sensor manganese sensor metalloprotein metal ion homeostasis metal ion prokaryotic strukturbiologi cellodling proteinuttryck genteknik spektroskopi röntgenkristallografi småvinkel-röntgenspridning SAXS transkriptionsfaktor PerR metallbindande antibiotika Saccharopolyspora erythraea S. erythraea jordartsbakterie Aktinobakterier Actinobacteria Actinomycetes oxidativ stress peroxid stress strukturbestämning karaktärisering stabilisering peroxidsensor järnsensor mangansensor metalljonshomeostas metalljoner prokaryot Structural Biology Strukturbiologi
