A frequent problem of recombinant protein production is their insolubility. To address this issue, engineered Escherichiacoli strains like Arctic Express that produce an exogenous chaperone facilitating protein folding, have been designed. A drawback is the frequent contamination of the protein by chaperones. A simple method, using urea at a sub-denaturing concentration, allows unbinding of Cpn60 from expressed protein. This method was successfully used to purify 2 proteins, an enzyme and a viral protein. The enzyme was fully active. The nature of interaction forces between enzyme and Cpn60 was investigated. The method is likely applicable to purify other proteins.
