PRODUCTION OF HETEROLOGOUS PROTEINS OR PEPTIDES

A method of producing a flagellin-based chimeric protein includes culturing a B. halodurans BhFD05 ( hag, fliD, wprA, alp, apr, vpr, asp) strain deposited under Accession Number 41533 at the NCIMB. The strain is caused to express and secrete high levels of a flagellin-based chimeric protein into an...

Zusammenfassung:A method of producing a flagellin-based chimeric protein includes culturing a B. halodurans BhFD05 ( hag, fliD, wprA, alp, apr, vpr, asp) strain deposited under Accession Number 41533 at the NCIMB. The strain is caused to express and secrete high levels of a flagellin-based chimeric protein into an extracellular growth medium. The flagellin-based chimeric protein comprises a heterologous peptide (i) inserted in-frame into a flagellin variable region which is flanked on its N-terminal side by an N-terminal fragment of a flagellin polypeptide and, optionally, flanked on its C-terminal side by a C-terminal fragment of a flagellin polypeptide, or (ii) fused to the C-terminal of a flagellin polypeptide.
