Protein expression

Hirschia baltica

We chose the BL21(DE3) strain for adjustable and efficient expression of target proteins since the system's proteins were best expressed in this strain. Given the lack of time, we went with conditions optimized beforehand in earlier experiments for the whole pathway expression: temperature of 37°C, induction with 0.5 mM IPTG concentration, and expression for 3 hours.

After SDS-PAGE gel analysis, we concluded that we successfully expressed HfsG, HfsH, HfsK, and HfsL proteins from H. baltica. We noticed that HfsL glycosyltransferase was visible in lower quantities compared to the other proteins. Expression of this protein conditions need to be further investigated and optimized.

HfsH is visible on the right side of the gel (Fig. 1).
