Q

objectives of protein expressions in industrial production

A
  • safe and contollable fermentation
  • cheap fermentation
  • high level of recombinant production (g/L not mg/L )

Q
Microbial expression hosts 
E.coli 
Advantages 
and 
Disadvantages
A
numerous specific vectors ( Y phage and pUC plasmid derivatives )
- v high transformation efficiencies
- v well understood fermentations 
- simple cell recovery and lysis 
DISADVANTAGES
- not naturally competent 
-low expression yields
- no glycolysation of r protein 
- rProtein not exported
