Transglutaminases are a family of enzymes that catalyze the posttranslational modification of proteins by inserting an isopeptide bond within or between polypeptide chains. These
enzymes catalyze the acyl transfer reaction between the γ-carboxyamide groups of peptidebound glutamine residues and a variety of primary amines, particularly the ε-amino group of lysine. The resulting crosslink is of great significance, since it is highly stable and also resistant to mechanical and proteolytic degradation.

| Description | Microbial (bacterial) transglutaminase is recombinantly produced in the inactive zymogenic form (Pro-MTG) in E. coli in a shaker flask fermentation. To achieve the production of larger amounts of Pro-MTG, a stirred tank fermentation process was developed. For this purpose, the expression plasmid was changed. Essentially, an expression plasmid carrying a kanamycin-resistance gene is used instead of the former expression plasmid, which contained a β-lactamase-gene. The fermentation medium was changed, however, no animal derived media components are used in the stirred tank fermentation protocol. |
