Abstract

L-Asparagnase II (L-ASP) is a chemotherapeutic enzyme catalyses hydrolysis of asparagine into aspartate and ammonia, a key mechanism for tumour cells. L-ASP widely used for the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and has commercial value. In this scenario, present study was aimed to sale up of recombinant L-ASP from Escherichia coli. L-ASP gene was cloned in pET 21a vector and was expressed in E. coli BL21DE3.The pH (7.2) and temperature (37°C) were optimized in shake flask, were maintained during scale up (3L and 30L) and the expression was recorded. Expressed L-ASP was captured by Diethyl amino ethyl sepharose, polished on quaternary ammonium sepharoseion exchange chromatography and purity was found to be 99.24%. The estimated yield calculated to be 1.5gm/Land the enzyme assay of purified enzyme was assayed to be 450 IU. Molecular weight of L-ASP monomer was determined by Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time of Flight (MALDI-TOF) and L-ASP tetramer was estimated to be 138.92kilo Daltons. The present study concluding that the developed process might throw insights in the scale up of at industrial level for high production.
