Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of functional protein in liposome.
Wei Yu,Kanetomo Sato,Maki Wakabayashi,Tomoyuki Nakaishi,Elizabeth P. Ko-Mitamura,Yasufumi Shima,Itaru Urabe,Tetsuya Yomo,Tetsuya Yomo +8 more
TL;DR: The Liposome consisting of eggPC, cholesterol, and DSPE-PEG5000 with a molar ratio of 1.5:1:0.08 was used to entrap cell-free protein synthesis reaction mixture and the synthesis of a mutant green fluorescent protein in the liposome was confirmed by the fluorescence emitted from theliposome on flow cytometry analysis and fluorescence microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of a cascading genetic network within liposomes
TL;DR: It is shown that the two‐stage genetic network constructed in a cell‐free expression system is functional within liposomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolutionary molecular engineering by random elongation mutagenesis
Tomoaki Matsuura,Kouji Miyai,Savitr Trakulnaleamsai,Tetsuya Yomo,Yasufumi Shima,Shigeji Miki,Keizo Yamamoto,Itaru Urabe +7 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that peptide addition expands the protein sequence space resulting in a new fitness landscape, and the enzyme can then move along the routes of the new landscape until it reaches a new optimum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solubility of artificial proteins with random sequences
Irfan D. Prijambada,Tetsuya Yomo,Fumihiro Tanaka,Toshihiro Kawama,Keizo Yamamoto,Akihisa Hasegawa,Yasufumi Shima,Seiji Negoro,Itaru Urabe +8 more
TL;DR: A library of artificial random proteins of 141 amino acid residues of which 95 are random and which includes the 20 kinds of amino acids was prepared, indicating that about 20% of the random proteins expressed in Escherichia coli are expected to be soluble.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of soluble artificial proteins with random sequences
Asao Yamauchi,Tetsuya Yomo,Tetsuya Yomo,Fumihiro Tanaka,Irfan D. Prijambada,Seiji Ohhashi,Keizo Yamamoto,Yasufumi Shima,Kyoko Ogasahara,Katsuhide Yutani,Mikio Kataoka,Itaru Urabe +11 more
TL;DR: The structural and catalytic properties of two soluble random proteins, RP3‐42 andRP3‐45, of 141 amino acid residues were investigated and showed that they form an oligomeric structure and are as compact as the molten globule.
