Cambridge Healthtech Institute’s 16th Annual
Difficult-to-Express Proteins
May 11-12, 2021
What makes a protein ‘difficult’ to produce? CHI’s 16th Annual Difficult-to-Express Proteins conference examines the challenges encountered by researchers when striving for high-yield production of “difficult-to-express”
proteins (DTEPs), and the strategies and technologies that have proven successful in overcoming those challenges. The Difficult-to-Express Proteins conference provides the latest developments in improving yield for DTEPs through case studies and breakthrough
data.
Coverage will include, but is not limited to:
- Taming difficult-to-express proteins
- High-yield production of “difficult-to-express” proteins
- Membrane proteins (GPCRs, ion channels, etc.)
- Caspases
- Proteases
- Kinases
- Genetic engineering
- Gene expression
- Translation
- Secretion
- Re-engineering
- Physical properties
- Amino acid sequence
- Disulfide-rich proteins
- Disulfide bond stability
- Overcoming misfolding
- Aggregation
- Cryo-EM
- Crystallization
- Emerging tools & technologies
- Achieving soluble protein
- Tagged or fused proteins
- To express in the cytoplasm, periplasm or extracellular in the medium?
