Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is commonly used as a reporter protein in a wide range of biological experiments. The efficient protocol of Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression in Nicotiana excelsior was applied for quick preparative production of recombinant GFP. The protein purification scheme has been developed and included ammonium sulfate precipitation and Q-sepharose anion-exchange chromatography. It results in obtaining of a fraction with about 85% GFP homogeneity and the protein yield of about 75%.

The development of efficient producers of recombinant pharmaceuticals based on plant cell suspension cultures is a pressing challenge in modern applied science. A primary limitation of plant cell cultures is their relatively low yield of the target protein. One strategy to enhance culture productivity involves reducing cell aggregation.

The liver is a unique organ where immunity can be biased toward ineffective response notably in the context of viral infections. Chronic viral hepatitis depends on the inability of the T-cell immune response to eradicate antigen. In the case of recombinant Adeno-Associated-Virus, used for therapeutic gene transfer, conflicting reports describe tolerance induction to different transgene products while other studies have shown conventional cytotoxic CD8 T cell responses with a rapid loss of transgene expression.

Green fluorescent protein (GFP) chromophores are widely studied as fluorescent moieties for sensing and imaging applications. Herein, we present a straightforward synthetic strategy that involves the reaction of glycine amides with 1,3-diketones to form imidazolones through an unusual molecular fragmentation and recombination pathway. Mechanistic investigations, including crossover experiments, inspired a competing strategy that incorporates exogenous ketones into the products, yielding fluorescent GFP chromophore analogues.

Background: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a significant global public health concern because of its association with various malignancies and autoimmune diseases. Over 90% of the global population is chronically infected with EBV, impacting numerous cancer-related cases annually. However, none of the effective prophylactic vaccines against EBV is approved at present.

One of the most significant bacteriophage technologies is phage display, in which heterologous peptides are exhibited on the virion surface. This work describes the display of λ decorative protein D linked to the E protein domain III of Zika virus (D-ZE), to the GFP protein (D-GFP), or to different domain III epitopes of the E protein (D-TD), exhibited on the surface of an in vitro evolved lambda phage (λ). This phage harbors a gene D deletion and was subjected to directed evolution using Escherichia coli W3110/pD-ZE as background.
