"Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) merupakan penyakit akibat infeksi Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) yang memiliki jumlah penderita tinggi di Indonesia. Salah satu upaya untuk mencegah bertambahnya jumlah penderita AIDS tersebut ialah dengan penggunaan vaksin. Poliprotein Gag merupakan protein penyusun struktur internal HIV yang dapat digunakan sebagai vaksin karena dapat menginduksi respon imun tubuh. Penelitian telah dilakukan untuk mengekspresikan poliprotein Gag HIV-1 subtipe CRF01_AE yang telah diinsersi ke dalam vektor ekspresi pQE-80L. Ekspresi poliprotein tersebut dilakukan di dalam bakteri Escherichia coli BL21 dan E. coli BL21-CodonPlus (CP) dengan induksi Isoprophyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG). Pendeteksian poliprotein Gag hasil ekspresi dilakukan dengan metode Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate Polyacrilamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Setelah poliprotein berhasil dideteksi, poliprotein Gag kemudian dipurifikasi dengan menggunakan metode kromatografi afinitas Ni2+-NTA di bawah kondisi native. Poliprotein Gag HIV-1 subtipe CRF01_AE dapat diekspresikan dalam E. coli BL21 dan E. coli BL21-CP dengan berat molekul sebesar 55,3 kDa.

Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is a disease caused by infection of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) which has a high number of people in Indonesia. One of the efforts to prevent the increasing number of AIDS patients is the use of vaccine. Gag polyprotein is a constituent protein of HIV internal structure that can be used as a vaccine because it can induce immune response of the body. Research has been conducted to express the Gag polyprotein HIV-1 subtype CRF01_AE that have been cloned into the pQE-80L expression vector. Polyprotein expression was carried out in Escherichia coli BL21 and E. coli BL21-CodonPlus (CP) with Isoprophyl-β-Dthiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) induction. Detection of Gag polyprotein was performed by Polyacrilamide Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) method. After successfully detected, Gag polyprotein then purified using Ni2+-NTA affinity chromatography under native condition. Gag polyprotein HIV-1 subtype CRF01_AE can be expressed in E. coli BL21 and E. coli BL21-CP with molecular weight is 55,3 kDa."

"Lignoselulosa dapat dijadikan sebagai biomassa untuk menghasilkan produk bahan bakar. Hidrolisis biomassa lignoselulosa menggunakan enzim selulase. Selulase mengandung dari 3 komplek enzim yaitu, eksoglukanase, endoglukanase dan betaglukosidase Namun, betaglukosidase memiliki jumlah lebih sedikit daripada eksoglukanase dan endoglukanase. Semakin sedikit betaglukosidase dapat memicu proses hidrolisis selulosa terhambat, oleh karena itu pengembangan betaglukosida perlu dilakukan dengan diekpresikan ke dalam Pichia pastoris. Transformasi plasmid pLIPI-TnBgl1A dilakukan dengan metode elektroporasi, sedangkan ekspresi gen dan hasil purifikasi protein rekombinan dianalisis menggunakan SDS-PAGE dan Western blot. Gen betaglukosidase dari Thermotoga neapolitana berhasil ditransformasikan kedalam Pichia pastoris. Transforman yang telah diseleksi menghasilkan 2 koloni positif. Berat molekuler protein diperkirakan sekitar 53 kDa dan jumlah protein estimasi 1 mg/mL dan 1,4 mg/mL. Hasil analisis kemurnian protein rekombinan melalui SDS PAGE dan western blot memperlihatkan pita tepat di 53 kDa. Jumlah yield protein yang terpurifikasi didapatkan sekitar 21,4 % dan 24,1%. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa gen TnBgl1A telah berhasil ditransformasi dan terekspresikan dengan baik di Pichia pastoris dan protein rekombinan berhasil dipurifikasi dengan kemurnian yang cukup baik.

Lignocellulose can be used as biomass to produce fuel products. Hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass using the cellulase enzyme. Cellulase contains 3 enzyme complexes, there are exoglucanase, endoglucanase and betaglucosidase. However, betaglukosidase has less amount than exoglucanase and endoglucanase. The less betaglucosidase can trigger the cellulose hydrolysis process is inhibited, therefore the development of betaglucoside needs to be done by expressing it into Pichia pastoris. Transformation of the pLIPI-TnBgl1A plasmid was performed by electroporation method, while gene expression and recombinant protein purification results were analyzed using SDS-PAGE and Western blot. The betaglucosidase gene from Thermotoga neapolitana was successfully transformed into Pichia pastoris. Transformants that have been selected produce 2 positive colonies. The molecular weight of protein is estimated to be around 53 kDa and the estimated protein amount is 1 mg/mL and 1.4 mg/mL. The results of the analysis of recombinant protein purity through SDS PAGE and western blot show the right band at 53 kDa. The amount of purified protein yield was around 21.4% and 24.1%. The results showed that the TnBgl1A gene was successfully transformed and well expressed in Pichia pastoris and the recombinant protein was purified with good purity."
