Abstract
The periplasmic proteome of recombinant E. coli cells expressing human interferon-α2b (INF-α2b) was analysed by 2D-gel electrophoresis to find the most altered proteins. Of some unique up- and down-regulated proteins in the proteome, ten were identified by MS. The majority of the proteins belonged to the ABC transporter protein family. Other affected proteins were ones involved in the regulation of transcription such as DNA-binding response regulator, stress-related proteins and ecotin. Thus, the production of INF-α2b acts as a stress on the cells and results in the induction of various transporters and stress related proteins.
