Protein Expression in E.coli

E.coli is the most common bacterial host for the expression of recombinant proteins. There are many advantages of E. coli protein expression systems. First of all, E.coli is able to express proteins at a very high yield. Hence, E.coli can produce large amount of the target protein. Another merit for E.coli is the rapid growth rate, leading to a fast turnaround time. Moreover, the cost for protein production in E.coli is relatively low.

One the other hand, post translational modification of proteins in E.coli is imperfect. So, E.coli may not be suitable for the expression of a protein having complex modifications. Additionally, some proteins are not properly folded in E.coli. As a result, the protein requires costly in vitro refolding process to work properly. Moreover, E.coli has low chance to secret proteins into culture medium.

Nevertheless, E.coli has well-documented advantages like high yield and low cost over other methods. Hence, E.coli is the most favorable system for the protein production. As a result, scientists use E. coli protein to a large extent. In addition, E.coli has produced many therapeutic proteins.

At Click Biosystems our new SoluPrx technology offers the greatest opportunity to produce your protein in E.coli.

Protein Expression in Mammalian Cells

As compared to E.coli, mammalian cells have advantages in protein initiation signals, processing, secretion, and modifications. Thus, they are able to produce native mammalian proteins. In addition, mammalian cells work well for secreted and membrane proteins. Furthermore, mammalian cells are vital for expressing intact large molecules such as antibody. Conversely, the disadvantages of mammalian cells are high cost, low yield, and difficult process.
