Exceptional yield vesicle packaged recombinant protein production from E. coli.
We describe a novel system that exports diverse recombinant proteins in extracellular vesicles from E. coli. The vesicles not only compartmentalise toxic, insoluble and disulphide bond containing proteins in a soluble and functional form (e.g. DNaseI, nanobodies and IgG-fusions), but the continued release of the inducible vesicle packaged proteins into the media supports continuous isolation of protein from active culture within a micro-environment allowing stable long-term storage. This technology results in unprecedented yields of vesicle packaged functional proteins for efficient downstream processing for a wide range of applications from discovery science to applied biotechnology and medicine.
