Recombinant Protein Expression in e Coliin

This volume provided methods and protocols on recombinant protein production in different plant systems, downstream processing, and strategies to optimize protein expression. Chapters guide readers through recombinant protein production in important plant systems, protein recovery and purification, different strategies to optimise productivity, cloning and fusion protein approaches, and the regulation and freedom to operate analysis of plant-produced proteins. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

The current explosive progress in molecular biological research can be definitively traced to the development of molecular cloning technology.

Studies related to recombinant gene expression have brought new advance such as the emergence of the “omics” technologies. While Escherichia coli, Sacharomyces cerevisiae and insect cells continue to be the dominant production platforms of recombinant proteins.
