Protein Variants

EC Number Protein Variants Comment Organism
4.2.3.104 additional information alpha-humulene production using the engineered Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) strain in a 2-l bioreactor cultivation, method optimization, overview. Coordinating Cu2+ ions to the NTA ligands in affinity chromatography results in a high non-specific binding of endogenous host cell proteins due to the high affinity of Cu2+ to histidine groups. Zn2+-IMAC shows much less impurities in eluted protein fractions which is consistent with the fact that Zn2+ ions are less affine to histidine groups. The recovery rate of 80 % of the protein of interest using Zn2+ ions is the lowest compared to all other metal ions tested. Ni2+- and Co2+-IMAC seem to be similar in product purity (60% and 63%) and recovery (93% and 95%). As Co2+-IMAC shows the best purity to recovery ratio, further purification is done using Co2+-IMAC Zingiber zerumbet
