Protein refolding in reversed micelles.

Abstract:

:A novel process has been developed which uses reversed micelles to isolate denatured protein molecules from each other and allows them to refold individually. These reversed micelles are aqueous phase droplets stabilized by the surfactant AOT and suspended in isooctane. By adjusting conditions such that only one protein molecule is present per reversed micelle, it was possible to achieve independent folding without encountering the problem of aggregation due to interactions with neighboring molecules. The feasibility of this process was demonstrated using bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A as a model system. It was shown that denatured and reduced ribonuclease can be transferred from a buffered solution containing guanidine hydrochloride into reversed micelles to a greater extent than native enzyme under the same conditions. The denaturant concentration can then be significantly reduced in the reversed micellar phase, while retaining most of the protein, by means of extractive contacting stages with a denaturant-free aqueous solution. Denatured and reduced ribonuclease will subsequently recover full activity inside reversed micelles within 24 h upon addition of a mixture of reduced and oxidized glutathione to reoxidize disulfide bonds. Extraction of this refolded enzyme from reversed micelles back into aqueous solution can be accomplished by contacting the reversed micelle phase with a high ionic strength (1.0M KCl) aqueous solution containing ethyl acetate.
