제목 Improving the productivity of scFv against c-Met by rearranging the order of variable domains
초록 c-Met, a high affinity receptor for hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor, shown to be overexpressed in a variety of malignant cells, is a potential biomarker as well as a therapeutic target. Thus antibody specific for c-Met is expected to be efficiently employed in the clinical treatment or imaging of many cancer cells. scFvs against c-Met with two different domain orders, i.e. VL-linker-VH and VH-linker-VL, were expressed in the cytoplasm of E. coli trx/gor deleted mutant and their activities as well as their productivities were compared. The scFv with VH/VL orientation showed 5-10 times higher expression levels than those with VL/VH orientation. Coexpression of DsbC in the cytoplasm of E. coli increased the yield of functional fragment antibodies about more than 5 fold compared to the production of fragment antibodies without DsbC coexpression. The fragment antibodies fused with hexahistidine residues at the C-terminus of the recombinant proteins were purified by immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC).
