pete with these guys... Maybe someone else has other ideas about that? Good luck! Jan --- Hari Namboodiri schrieb am Fr, 3.9.2010: > Von: Hari Namboodiri > Betreff: [ccp4bb] Heme Proteins > An: CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK > Datum: Freitag, 3. September, 2010 19:30 Uhr > Dear CCPeers

[ccp4bb] Heme Proteins

2010-09-03 Thread Hari Namboodiri
Dear CCPeers I wanted to thank everyone for sharing their experiences and giving valuable advice on CYP51 protein expression. It seems that special vectors like pCW-Lic or pcWORi is needed for efficient expression. I have not found any commercial source for them though. Could anybody be willing

Hari, I have expressed sulfite oxidase (with a N-terminal heme) in E. coli strain TP1000 which resulted in red protein. I did not supplement the media with iron or a porphyrin precursor. Sincerely, James On Aug 26, 2010, at 12:56 PM, Hari Namboodiri wrote: > Hi CCPers > > Can anyone provi

I think you need a special trick to express C-type heme proteins. For B hemes (protoheme, protoporphryn 9), which I think is what the P450's have, E.coli is always expressing several proteins which contain it. But I guess there may be some way to up the production in case of an overexpresser. Ha

Dear Hari, You might look at Lucy Waskell's experiences with full length mammalian Cytochrome P450 2B4. While she got >50 mg of purified protein per liter of culture, many other heme proteins are much harder to express in E. coli with heme assembly proteins, chaperones, etc. You just ha
