Abstract
Despite progress in bone tissue engineering, reconstruction of large bone defects remains an important clinical challenge. Here, a biomaterial designed to recruit bone cells, endothelial cells, and neuronal fibers within the same matrix is developed, enabling bone tissue regeneration. The bioactive matrix is based on modified elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) grafted with laminin-derived adhesion peptides IKVAV and YIGSR, and the SNA15 peptide for retention of hydroxyapatite (HA) particles. The composite matrix shows suitable porosity, interconnectivity, biocompatibility for endothelial cells, and the ability to support neurites outgrowth by sensory neurons. Subcutaneous implantation leads to the formation of osteoid tissue, characterized by the presence of bone cells, vascular networks, and neuronal structures, while minimizing inflammation. Using a rat femoral condyle defect model, longitudinal micro-CT analysis is performed, which demonstrates a significant increase in the volume of mineralized tissue when using the ELP-based matrix compared to empty defects and a commercially available control (Collapat). Furthermore, visible blood vessel networks and nerve fibers are observed within the lesions after a period of two weeks. By incorporating multiple key components that support cell growth, mineralization, and tissue integration, this ELP-based composite matrix provides a holistic and versatile solution to enhance bone tissue regeneration.

Mater Today Bio 2024; 25:100999. [PMID: 38379933 PMCID: PMC10877175 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2024.100999] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2023] [Revised: 02/08/2024] [Accepted: 02/09/2024] [Indexed: 02/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Despite the remarkable progress in the generation of recombinant elastin-like (ELR) hydrogels, further improvements are still required to enhance and control their viscoelasticity, as well as limit the use of expensive chemical reagents, time-consuming processes and several purification steps. To alleviate this issue, the reactivity of carboxylic groups from glutamic (E) acid distributed along the hydrophilic block of an amphiphilic ELR (coded as E50I60) with amine groups has been studied through a one-pot amidation reaction in aqueous solutions, for the first time. By means of this approach, immediate conjugation of E50I60 with molecules containing amine groups has been performed with a high yield, as demonstrated by the 1H NMR and MALDI-TOF spectroscopies. This has resulted in the preparation of viscoelastic irreversible hydrogels through the "in-situ" cross-linking of E50I60 with another ELR (coded as VKV24) containing amine groups from lysines (K). The rheology analysis demonstrated that the gelation process takes place following a dual mechanism dependent on the ELR concentration: physical cross-linking of I60 block through the hydrophobic interactions, and covalent cross-linking of E50I60 with VKV24 through the amidation reaction. While the chemical network formed between the hydrophilic E50 block and VKV24 ELR preserves the elasticity of ELR hydrogels, the self-assembly of the I60 block through the hydrophobic interactions provides a tunable physical network. The presented investigation serves as a basis for generating ELR hydrogels with tunable viscoelastic properties promising for tissue regeneration, through an ''in-situ", rapid, scalable, economically and feasible one-pot method.

A systematic review about affinity tags for one-step purification and immobilization of recombinant proteins: integrated bioprocesses aiming both economic and environmental sustainability. 3 Biotech 2023; 13:186. [PMID: 37193330 PMCID: PMC10182917 DOI: 10.1007/s13205-023-03616-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/06/2023] [Indexed: 05/18/2023] Open
Abstract
The present study reviewed and discussed the promising affinity tags for one-step purification and immobilization of recombinant proteins. The approach used to structure this systematic review was The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) methodology. The Scopus and Web of Science databases were used to perform the bibliographic survey by which 267 articles were selected. After the inclusion/exclusion criteria and the screening process, from 25 chosen documents, we identified 7 types of tags used in the last 10 years, carbohydrate-binding module tag (CBM), polyhistidine (His-tag), elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs), silaffin-3-derived pentalysine cluster (Sil3k tag), N-acetylmuramidase (AcmA tag), modified haloalkane dehalogenase (HaloTag®), and aldehyde from a lipase polypeptide (Aldehyde tag). The most used bacterial host for expressing the targeted protein was Escherichia coli and the most used expression vector was pET-28a. The results demonstrated two main immobilization and purification methods: the use of supports and the use of self-aggregating tags without the need of support, depending on the tag used. Besides, the chosen terminal for cloning the tag proved to be very important once it could alter enzyme activity. In conclusion, the best tag for protein one-step purification and immobilization was CBM tag, due to the eco-friendly supports that can be provided from industry wastes, the fast immobilization with high specificity, and the reduced cost of the process.

J Pept Sci 2022; 29:e3472. [PMID: 36541737 DOI: 10.1002/psc.3472] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2022] [Revised: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 12/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
We aimed to determine the coacervation properties of high-molecular-weight (HMW) tissue-derived elastin (TDE) and to examine the potential use of TDE particles as a cosmetic biomaterial. TDE solutions were filtered and divided into three fractions (1-3) according to the molecular weight of the elastin. The turbidity of fraction 2, which contained a large portion (58%) of HMW elastin polypeptides (>100 kDa), was measured under several pH values (3.0-11.0) and NaCl concentrations (0-1000 mM) to examine its coacervation ability. HMW TDE exhibited coacervation under the physiological conditions (temperature, pH, and NaCl concentration) of the skin surface. We performed inclusion and release experiments using three model chemicals with different molecular weights and measured the size and zeta potential of the fraction 3 particles to investigate the suitability of HMW elastin polypeptides. Fraction 3, which contained a larger portion (64%) of HMW elastin polypeptides, displayed a strong coacervation property at a phase transition temperature of 19.8 ± 0.1°C. The inclusion ratio of the model chemical Biebrich Scarlet (BS) with a molecular weight of <600 was approximately 92.1 ± 0.7%. The release profiles of BS from the particles linearly increased and reached a plateau after 15 days. Moreover, the average size of the particles with BS was 474.2 ± 24.6 nm. The low-molecular-weight (LMW) elastin peptides have moisturizing and whitening functions for the skin. We concluded that TDE, as a mixture of HMW polypeptides and LMW peptides, can potentially serve as a multifunctional and effective cosmetic biomaterial.

Abstract
Elastin-like proteins (ELPs) are polypeptides with potential applications as renewable bio-based high-performance polymers, which undergo a stimulus-responsive reversible phase transition. The ELP investigated in this manuscript—ELP[V2Y-45]—promises fascinating mechanical properties in biomaterial applications. Purification process scalability and purification performance are important factors for the evaluation of potential industrial-scale production of ELPs. Salt-induced precipitation, inverse transition cycling (ITC), and immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) were assessed as purification protocols for a polyhistidine-tagged hydrophobic ELP showing low-temperature transition behavior. IMAC achieved a purity of 86% and the lowest nucleic acid contamination of all processes. Metal ion leakage did not propagate chemical modifications and could be successfully removed through size-exclusion chromatography. The simplest approach using a high-salt precipitation resulted in a 60% higher target molecule yield compared to both other approaches, with the drawback of a lower purity of 60% and higher nucleic acid contamination. An additional ITC purification led to the highest purity of 88% and high nucleic acid removal. However, expensive temperature-dependent centrifugation steps are required and aggregation effects even at low temperatures have to be considered for the investigated ELP. Therefore, ITC and IMAC are promising downstream processes for biomedical applications with scale-dependent economical costs to be considered, while salt-induced precipitation may be a fast and simple alternative for large-scale bio-based polymer production.

Abstract
Proteins have been widely used in the biomedical field because of their well-defined architecture, accurate molecular weight, excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability, and easy-to-functionalization. Inspired by the wisdom of nature, increasing proteins/peptides that possess self-assembling capabilities have been explored and designed to generate nanoassemblies with unique structure and function, including spatially organized conformation, passive and active targeting, stimuli-responsiveness, and high stability. These characteristics make protein/peptide-based nanoassembly an ideal platform for drug delivery and vaccine development. In this review, we focus on recent advances in subsistent protein/peptide-based nanoassemblies, including protein nanocages, virus-like particles, self-assemblable natural proteins, and self-assemblable artificial peptides. The origin and characteristics of various protein/peptide-based assemblies and their applications in drug delivery and vaccine development are summarized. In the end, the prospects and challenges are discussed for the further development of protein/peptide-based nanoassemblies.

Abstract
As the extracellular matrix protein, elastin is a crucial component of connective tissue in life. It is responsible for the structural integrity and function of tissues undergoing reversible extensibility or deformability, even though it may make up only a small percentage of a tissue. The structure stability, elastic resilience, bioactivity, and ability of self-assembly make elastin a highly desirable candidate for the fabrication of biomaterials. Elastin's properties mainly depend on their special structure. As elastin can be obtained by the assembly and cross-linking of its soluble precursor, tropoelastin. This chapter centers on introducing the structure of those two materials.

Abstract
Elastin, as an extracellular matrix protein, has inherent advantages for biomedical applications. For example, it is highly extensible and biocompatible, biodegradable, and has no immunogenicity. However, directly extracting elastin from biological tissues remains challenging because they usually coexist with other proteins such as collagen. Therefore, an effective strategy to produce elastin is to transfer the elastin's target gene into other expression hosts and synthesize the resultant polypeptides using chemical biology methods. The polypeptides and proteins produced using these methods are usually referred to as elastin-like peptides (ELPs), which have received intensive interests in drug delivery and release, tissue engineering, implanted devices, and so on. Therefore, this chapter introduces the detailed protocol for the preparation of ELPs using genetic recombination, including DNA recombination, expression, and purification. The methods presented here are expected to provide methodological guidance for preparation and application of ELP materials.

Abstract
Diblock copolymers based-on elastin-like polypeptide (ELP) have the potential to undergo specific phase transitions when thermally stimulated. This ability is especially suitable to form carriers, micellar structures for instance, for delivering active cargo molecules. Here, we report the design and study of an ELP diblock library based on ELP-[M1V3-i]-[I-j]. First, ELP-[M1V3-i]-[I-j] (i = 20, 40, 60; j = 20, 90) that showed a similar self-assembly propensity (unimer-to-aggregate transition) as their related monoblocks ELP-[M1V3-i] and ELP-[I-j]. By selectively oxidizing methionines of ELP-[M1V3-i] within the different diblocks structures, we have been able to access a thermal phase transition with three distinct regimes (unimers, micelles, aggregates) characteristic of well-defined ELP diblocks.

Abstract
To investigate the application of short elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) in the purification of bioactive proteins, short hydrophobic ELP[I] n (n = 30, 40, 50) tags were constructed. Both the ELP[I] n tags and the ELP[I] n -Trx fusion proteins could be stably expressed in Escherichia coli and purified by inverse transition cycling, respectively. Total protein concentrations determined by BCA protein assay showed that the yield of the fusion proteins decreased with increasing ELP length. Measurements of the inverse transition temperature (T t) of the ELP[I] n -Trx under different salts or PEG8000 concentrations showed decreased T t upon elevated concentrations; while, all the T ts were suitable for generating proteins from 4 to 37.5 ºC. Furthermore, to identify a linker peptide for bioactive protein production without the need to remove the ELP[I] n tag, the activity of eGFP protein fused with ELP[I]30 tag by either a poly-N or a G4S linker was quantified using a fluorescence spectrophotometer. The results indicated that the ELP[I]30-eGFP fusion proteins with the poly-N linker showed higher fluorescence levels than those with the G4S linker. Our results demonstrated that short ELP[I] n tags with low T t were useful in protein expression and purification, and poly-N linker played the key role in producing bioactive proteins without the need to remove the ELPs.

Abstract
Proteins are essential throughout the biological and biomedical sciences and the purification strategies of proteins of interest have advanced over centuries. Elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) are compound polymers that have recently been highlighted for their sharp and reversible phase transition property when heated above their lower critical solution temperature (LCST). ELPs preserve this behavior when fused to a protein, and as a result providing a simple method to isolate a recombinant ELP fusion protein from cell contaminants by taking the solution through the soluble and insoluble phase of the ELP fusion protein, a technique designated as the inverse transition cycle (ITC). ITC is considered an inexpensive and efficient way of purifying recombinant ELP fusion proteins. In addition, ELPs render recombinant fusion protein more stability and a longer clear time in blood stream, which give ELPs a lot of valuable applications in the biotechnological and pharmaceutical industry. This article reviews the modernizations of ELPs and briefly highlights on the possible use of technologies such as the automatic piston discharge (APD) centrifuges to improve the efficiency of the ITC in the pharmaceutical industry to obtain benefits.

Abstract
Cell surface protein B (CspB) from Corynebacterium glutamicum is used as a pH-responsive peptide tag to enable a simple solid-liquid separation method for isolating a CspB fusion protein. Here we demonstrate the first application of a CspB tag for the purification of Teriparatide, which is a biologic drug that is prescribed for osteoporosis. The Teriparatide was constructed as CspB50TEV-Teriparatide, comprising 50 amino acid residues of CspB, the cleavage site of TEV protease, and Teriparatide. CspB50TEV-Teriparatide was expressed in a culture supernatant by C. glutamicum secretion system at 3.0 g/L (equivalent to approximately 1.2 g/L Teriparatide). The CspB50TEV-Teriparatide was precipitated by reducing the pH of the culture supernatant, and the precipitate was then dissolved in a neutral buffer. A TEV protease treatment was applied to cleave the Teriparatide from the CspB50TEV-Teriparatide. Then, the remaining digested CspB50TEV, undigested CspB50TEV-Teriparatide, and TEV protease were precipitated in an acidic pH, whereas the soluble Teriparatide remained in the supernatant. The process had a yield of 96.5% and resulted in Teriparatide with a purity of 98.0% and productivity of 1.1 g/L of C. glutamicum culture. Thus, tag-free Teriparatide was successfully purified from the CspB fusion protein using only pH changes, centrifugation, and protease digestion without the need for chromatography. This versatile purification protocol is expected to be applicable to various proteins from laboratory to industrial scales.

Abstract
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are promising candidates for a myriad of applications; however, successful utilization of CNCs requires balanced and multifunctional properties, which require ever more applied concepts for supramolecular tailoring. We present here a facile and straightforward route to generate dual functional CNCs using poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and biosynthetic elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs). We utilize thiol-maleimide chemistry and SI-ATRP to harvest the temperature responsiveness of ELPs and pH sensitivity of PAA to confer multifunctionality to CNCs. Cryo-TEM and light microscopy are used to exhibit reversible temperature response, while atomic force microscopy (AFM) provides detailed information on the particle morphology. The approach is tunable and allows variation of the modifying molecules, inspiring supramolecular engineering beyond the currently presented motifs. The surge of genetically engineered peptides adds further possibilities for future exploitation of the potential of cellulose nanomaterials.

Abstract
Simple and low-cost recombinant enzyme-free seamless DNA cloning methods have recently become available. In vivo Escherichia coli cloning (iVEC) can directly transform a mixture of insert and vector DNA fragments into E. coli, which are ligated by endogenous homologous recombination activity in the cells. Seamless ligation cloning extract (SLiCE) cloning uses the endogenous recombination activity of E. coli cellular extracts in vitro to ligate insert and vector DNA fragments. An evaluation of the efficiency and utility of these methods is important in deciding the adoption of a seamless cloning method as a useful tool. In this study, both seamless cloning methods incorporated inserting DNA fragments into linearized DNA vectors through short (15-39 bp) end homology regions. However, colony formation was 30-60-fold higher with SLiCE cloning in end homology regions between 15 and 29 bp than with the iVEC method using DH5α competent cells. E. coli AQ3625 strains, which harbor a sbcA gene mutation that activates the RecE homologous recombination pathway, can be used to efficiently ligate insert and vector DNA fragments with short-end homology regions in vivo. Using AQ3625 competent cells in the iVEC method improved the rate of colony formation, but the efficiency and accuracy of SLiCE cloning were still higher. In addition, the efficiency of seamless cloning methods depends on the intrinsic competency of E. coli cells. The competency of chemically competent AQ3625 cells was lower than that of competent DH5α cells, in all cases of chemically competent cell preparations using the three different methods. Moreover, SLiCE cloning permits the use of both homemade and commercially available competent cells because it can use general E. coli recA- strains such as DH5α as host cells for transformation. Therefore, between the two methods, SLiCE cloning provides both higher efficiency and better utility than the iVEC method for seamless DNA plasmid engineering.

Abstract
The protocol described here is designed as an extension of existing techniques for creating elastin-like polypeptides. It allows for the expression and purification of elastin-like polypeptide (ELP) constructs that are poorly expressed or have very low transition temperatures. DNA concatemerization has been modified to reduce issues caused by methylation sensitivity and inefficient cloning. Linearization of the modified expression vector has been altered to greatly increase cleavage efficiency. The purification regimen is based upon using denaturing metal affinity chromatography to fully solubilize and, if necessary, pre-concentrate the target peptide before purification by inverse temperature cycling (ITC). This protocol has been used to express multiple leucine-containing elastin-like polypeptides, with final yields of 250–660 mg per liter of cells, depending on the specific construct. This was considerably greater than previously reported yields for similar ELPs. Due to the relative hydrophobicity of the tested constructs, even compared with commonly employed ELPs, conventional methods would not have been able to be purify these peptides.
