Single Molecule Localization and Discrimination of DNA–Protein Complexes by Controlled Translocation Through Nanocapillaries

Aleksandra Radenovic, Sebastian Maerkl, Sanjin Marion, Roman Bulushev, Sebastian James Davis, Ekaterina Emilova Petrova

Through the use of optical tweezers we performed controlled translocations of DNA-protein complexes through nanocapillaries. We used RNA polymerase (RNAP) with two binding sites on a 7.2 kbp DNA fragment and a dCas9 protein tailored to have five binding si ...

Enhanced Plasmid DNA Utilization in Transiently Transfected CHO-DG44 Cells in the Presence of Polar Solvents

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Yashas Rajendra, Divor Kiseljak, Sowmya Balasubramanian

Although the protein yields from transient gene expression (TGE) with Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells have recently improved, the amount of plasmid DNA (pDNA) needed for transfection remains relatively high. We describe a strategy to reduce the pDNA amou ...

Transcriptional and post-transcriptional limitations of high-yielding, PEI-mediated transient transfection with CHO and HEK-293E cells

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Yashas Rajendra, Divor Kiseljak

Transient gene expression (TGE) in human embryonic kidney (HEK-293) and Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells is a well-established technology for the rapid generation of recombinant proteins. Although the maximum TGE yields have reached 1 g/L or more, the amo ...

Effects of physiological self-crowding of DNA on shape and biological properties of DNA molecules with various levels of supercoiling

Giovanni Dietler, Julien Dorier, Fabrizio Benedetti, Yannis Burnier, Aleksandre Japaridze, Andrzej Stasiak, Robert Sebastian Kwapich

DNA in bacterial chromosomes and bacterial plasmids is supercoiled. DNA supercoiling is essential for DNA replication and gene regulation. However, the density of supercoiling in vivo is circa twice smaller than in deproteinized DNA molecules isolated from ...

Study of transposon-mediated cell pool and cell line generation in CHO cells

Sowmya Balasubramanian

The goal of this thesis was to evaluate the use of artificial transposon systems for the generation of recombinant cell pools and cell lines with Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells as the production host. Transposons are naturally occurring genetic elements ...

Virus-free transient protein production in Sf9 cells

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Xiao Shen

A method for virus-free transient gene expression from suspension-adapted Sf9 insect cells was developed with the gene of interest being expressed from a plasmid carrying the homologous region 5 enhancer (hr5) and the immediate early 1 (ie1) promoter from ...

Arginine-Based Biodegradable Ether–Ester Polymers with Low Cytotoxicity as Potential Gene Carriers

Lucia Baldi Unser, Jutta Christine Wandrey, Sagar Shashidhar Manoli, Nino Zavradashvili, Tamar Memanishvili

The success of gene therapy depends on safe and effective gene carriers. Despite being widely used, synthetic vectors based on poly(ethylenimine) (PEI), poly(l-lysine) (PLL), or poly(l-arginine) (poly-Arg) are not yet fully satisfactory. Thus, both improve ...

Development of plasmid-based expression technology for rapid and sustained production of recombinant proteins in insect cells

Xiao Shen

Due to the high demand for heterogeneous protein production in insect cells, we have established efficient methods for plasmid-based transient gene expression (TGE) in various insect cell lines, including commonly used Spodoptera cell lines Sf9 and HighFiv ...

Mathematical models and computational methods for the analysis of genome-scale protein synthesis

Julien Racle

Proteins are a ubiquitous and indispensable element for every living organism, from simple bacteria to mammals. Already in the simplest organisms, there exist some thousands of different protein species that take up a great variety of structures, and thus ...

MAR-mediated integration of plasmid vectors for in vivo gene transfer and regulation

Andrzej Kulik, Nicolas Mermod, Stefania Puttini, Déborah Ley, Damien Saugy

Background: The in vivo transfer of naked plasmid DNA into organs such as muscles is commonly used to assess the expression of prophylactic or therapeutic genes in animal disease models. Results: In this study, we devised vectors allowing a tight regulatio ...
