A PagP fusion protein system for the expression of intrinsically disordered proteins in E. coli
Download2012-01-01
Hwang, Peter M., Pan, Jonathan S., Sykes, Brian D.
PagP, a beta-barrel membrane protein found in Gram-negative bacteria, expresses robustly in inclusion bodies when its signal sequence is removed. We have developed a new fusion protein expression system based on PagP and demonstrated its utility in the expression of the unstructured N-terminal...

Combining a PagP fusion protein system with nickel ion-catalyzed cleavage to produce intrinsically disordered proteins in E. coli

Zahran, Somaya, Pan, Jonathan S., Liu, Philip B., Hwang, Peter M.
Many proteins contain intrinsically disordered regions that are highly solvent-exposed and susceptible to post-translational modifications. Studying these protein segments is critical to understanding their physiologic regulation, but proteolytic degradation can make them difficult to express and...

Recombinant expression of the cardiac troponin I fragment, cTnI[135-209], that controls cardiac contraction
Download2015-05-14
Jonathan S. Pan, Somaya Zahran, Peter M Hwang
Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are protein segments that lack a fixed three-dimensional structure under physiologic conditions, they are susceptible to post-translational modifications such as proteolysis. However, they are highly important in cellular signal transduction and the...
