Optimised Expression and Activity Assessment of Bacterial Staphylokinase in E. coli BL21(DE3)
Harith Buniya
Abstract:The application of recombinant proteins is rare following the high production costs of expressing proteins with expensive inducers, such as isopropyl-β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG). Staphylokinase (SAK), a fibrinolytic enzyme, is a small bacterial thrombolytic agent that specifically clots and converts plasminogens to plasmins and lysis fibrin clots. The primary objective of the present investigation sought to increase the yield and lower the cost of staphylokinase production using Escherichia coli BL21 (D… Show more
