Recovery of active medium-chain-length-poly-3-hydroxyalkanoate polymerase from inactive inclusion bodies using ion-exchange resin
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A novel process for the purification of active medium-chain-length-polyhydroxyalkanoate (mcl-PHA) polymerase was developed. This process is based on solubilization and activation of inactive polymerase inclusion bodies by incubation with ion-exchange resin. The mcl-PHA polymerase 1 from Pseudomonas oleovorans was overproduced from the Palk promoter. Most of the polymerase produced was sequestered in the cytoplasm as an inactive form in insoluble aggregates. By incubating the protein aggregates with S-Sepharose ion-exchange resin in the presence of dithiothreitol and glycerol, the mcl-PHA polymerase could be extracted in an active and soluble form with a final yield of about 5.2 mg/g of cell dry weight. The solubilized polymerase was able to catalyse the in vitro synthesis of mcl-PHA without any additional cell components, suggesting its potential application for production of biopolymer. The procedure used here may be of general value in solubilizing and activating purified inactive labile enzymes.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
