Journal ArticleDOI
Protein aggregation in recombinant bacteria: biological role of inclusion bodies
Antonio Villaverde,Mar Carrió +1 more
TL;DR: A better understanding of protein aggregation in cell physiology could allow not only inclusion body formation to be minimized more efficiently for a higher soluble yield, but also to comprehend in detail the intricacy of cell mechanisms committed to handling the misfolding danger.
Journal ArticleDOI
Amyloid-like Properties of Bacterial Inclusion Bodies
TL;DR: It is shown that aggregation does not necessarily require unfolded polypeptide chains but rather depends on specific interactions between solvent-exposed hydrophobic stretches in partially structured species and purified inclusion bodies bind amyloid-diagnostic dyes, which indicates a high level of organized intermolecular beta-sheet structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Construction and deconstruction of bacterial inclusion bodies.
Mar Carrió,Antonio Villaverde +1 more
TL;DR: The close connection between in vivo protein folding, aggregation, solubilisation and proteolytic digestion offers an integrated view of the bacterial protein quality control system of which IBs might be an important component especially in recombinant bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protein aggregation as bacterial inclusion bodies is reversible.
Mar Carrió,Antonio Villaverde +1 more
TL;DR: Sp spontaneous in vivo release of both β‐galactosidase and P22 tailspike polypeptides from inclusion bodies are proved resulting in their almost complete disintegration and in the concomitant appearance of soluble, properly folded native proteins with full biological activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fine architecture of bacterial inclusion bodies
TL;DR: Both the heterogeneity of the folding state and the time‐dependent folding transitions undergone by the aggregated polypeptides indicate that IBs are not mere deposits of collapsed, inert molecules but plastic reservoirs of misfolded proteins that would allow, at least up to a certain extent, their in vivo recovery and transference to the soluble cell fraction.
