| Abstract | Silkworms are useful bioreactors for heterologous protein expression when used in conjunction with the Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) bacmid system. However, purification from silkworm hemolymph is difficult since it contains various kinds of proteins. In this study, we investigated an effective single-step method for the purification of affinity-tagged single-chain antibody variable region fragment (scFv) from silkworm larval hemolymph. A 5-fold higher expression level was obtained when scFv was fused with the His tag than when it was fused with the Strep II or GST tags. However, the His tag was inadequate for single-step purification since it led to the nonspecific binding of contaminants. The purification recoveries of GST-, Strep II-, and His-tagged scFvs were 91.8%, 43.7%, and 27.2%, respectively. The specific amount of single-step purified GST-tagged scFv was 2.2∼2.7 fold higher than the amounts of the His- and Strep II-tagged constructs. The purities of Strep II- and GST-tagged scFvs in the eluent were 98.4% and 83.0%, respectively. Thus, both the short peptide Strep II and GST protein are suitable fusion tags for the affinity purification of proteins from silkworm larvae. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
