  • Title: [Studies of the expression, purification, renaturation and biologic activity of an anti-CEA immunotoxin].
    Author: Yang H, He D, Chao K, Lin Q, You S, Huang HL.
    Journal: Sheng Wu Gong Cheng Xue Bao; 2004 May; 20(3):348-51. PubMed ID: 15971603.
    Abstract:
    A recombinant immunotoxin named CEA/PE38/KDEL was constructed, which was composed of anti-CEA single-chain Fv and the truncated and modified form of Pseudomonas exotoxin (PE38/KDEL). The CEA/PE38/KDEL immunotoxin was expressed in the E. coli strain BL21 (DE3)-star as inclusion bodies. The denatured inclusion bodies were purified with Ni-NTA chelate agarose, then the constant gradient dialysis was used to perform the refolding of the CEA/PE38/KDEL immunotoxin. Results of FACS and MTT assay indicate that the refolded immunotoxins keep potent and specific cytotoxicity to tumor cells bearing CEA antigens.
