“…BRP is a small lipoprotein of 28 amino acids, when expressed at high-level, it leads to quasi-lysis and lethality (Rahman et al 2005). Several proteins, such as b-lactamase, human immunoglobulin, penicillinase, penicillin acylase, F1 alkaline protease, and lipase, were secreted with the co-expression of BRP (Kitai et al 1988;Lurink et al 1987;Jin et al 2001;Fu et al 2003;Rahman et al 2005). Under optimized condition, at a rather low IPTG concentration (0.05 mM), presumably to reduce the effect of BRP on cell viability, the secretion of 18,100 U/ml thermostable T1 lipase was reported, demonstrating the effectiveness of the secretion through this method (Rahman et al 2005).…”
