Based on whole-genome analysis of T. roseum DSM 5159, the codon-optimized sox was successfully expressed in E. coli.
The soluble expression of SOX was significantly enhanced via co-expression of chaperones (GroES-GroEL and DnaK-DnaJ-GrpE-GroES-GroEL).
Analysis of intermolecular forces indicated that Arg, hydrogen bonds, and ionic bonds enhanced the interactions and stability of the TrSOX secondary structures.
