Gene Synthesis> | … In order to obtain a plasmid that expressed the foldase gene (lipB) in E. coli efficiently, we optimized the lipB sequence by removing a series of tandem rare codons present in the original gene and had this modified lipB synthesized by GenScript (NJ, USA) … | Get A Quote |
Genes encoding lipase LipBC (lipA) and foldase LifBC (lipB) were identified in the genome of Burkholderia contaminans LTEB11. Analysis of the predicted amino acid sequence of lipA showed its high identity with lipases from Pseudomonas luteola (91%), Burkholderia cepacia (96%) and Burkholderia lata (97%), and classified LipBC lipase in the lipase subfamily I.2. The genes lipA and lipB were amplified and cloned into expression vectors pET28a(+) and pT7-7, respectively. His-tagged LipBC and native LifBC were co-expressed in Escherichia coli and purified. LipBC and LifBC have molecular weights of 35.9 kDa and 37 kDa, respectively, and remain complexed after purification. The Lip-LifBC complex was acti... More
