Abstract
An important modification of thrombolytic agents is resistance to plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1). In previous studies, a new truncated PAI-1-resistant variant was developed based on deletion of the first three domains in t-PA and the substitution of KHRR 128-131 amino acids with AAAA in the truncated t-PA. The novel variant expressed in a static culture system of Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) DG44 cells exhibited a higher resistance to PAI-1 when compared with the full-length commercial drug; Actylase. In the present study, the truncatedmutant protein was expressed in CHO DG44 cells in 50 ml orbital shaking bioreactors. The final yield of the truncatedmutant in the culture was 752 IU/ml, representing a 63% increase compared with the static culture system. Therefore, these results suggest that using the combined features of a transient and stable expression system is feasible for the production of novel recombinant proteins in the quantities needed for preclinical studies.
