    Notes: Abstract The expression of a recombinant fusion protein including Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease was studied by using Escherichia coli as the host strain. When the mature V8 protease was expressed as a fusion protein with a truncated E. coli \-galactosidase (\-gal97S4D), we could not obtain a sufficient amount of the enzyme because of the toxicity resulting from the expressed protease activity. Synthesis of V8 protease was increased by constructing a sandwich-type fusion protein consisting of \-gal197S4D, a V8 protease derivative with the 56 C-terminal amino acids deleted (V8Δ56) and a truncated aminoglycoside-3'-phosphotransferase. This fusion protein was successfully produced as inactive inclusion bodies. To release the V8Δ56 protease from the fusion protein, we developed a novel processing method using an endogeneous E. coli OmpT protease, which can recognize the dibasic amino acid residues located in the linker peptides of the fusion protein. After solubilizing the inclusion bodies with urea, the V8Δ56 protein was automatically released from the fusion protein by the OmpT protease, which was coprecipitated with the inclusion bodies. The V8Δ56 protease thus obtained showed the same enzymatic activity as that of the native V8 protease. We demonstrate in this study that the N-terminal prepro sequence and the C-terminal repeated sequence of this enzyme are not necessary for its enzymatic activity and protein folding.

    Notes: Abstract Human calcitonin (hCT) is a C-terminus α-amidated peptide hormone consisting of 32 amino acids. The amidated structure is essential for its biological activities, and the C-terminal-glycine-extended precursor peptide, hCT[G], is converted to bioactive hCT by a C-terminus-α-amidating enzyme. An efficient production method is described for the hCT[G] peptide, as a part of the fusion protein consisting of a modified E. coli β-galactosidase, linker amino acids and hCT[G]. Stable inclusion bodies of the fusion protein in E. coli were expressed by focusing on the amino acid charge, and the fusion protein was modified by inserting a basic amino acid sequence into its linker region. This modification greatly affected the formation of inclusion bodies. E. coli strain W3110/pG97S4DhCT [G]R4 could produce a large amount of stable inclusion bodies, and the hCT[G] peptide was released quantitatively from the fusion protein by S. aureus V8 protease. This enabled a large-scale production method to be established for the hCT[G] precursor peptide in E. coli to produce mature hCT.
