Abstract
Two different folding aids including alpha-cyclodextrin and Mg2+ ions were applied to alkaline phosphatase refolding. The refolding yield depending on concentration of each of the refolding agents reached to 55 and 52% in the presence of 100 mM alpha-cyclodextrin and/or 5 mM Mg2+ ions, respectively. However, the refolding yield, mediated by combination of alpha-cyclodextrin and Mg2+ ions, was more than 96%. Replacement of Mg2+ ion with other type of ions which interact with alpha-cyclodextrin interfere with the function of cyclodextrin resulting in low refolding yields.Entities:
