| Expression Host | E coli |
| Expression Strain | BL21 (DE3) |
| Expression Temp | 37.0 |

| Expression Vector | pET-22 |
| Expression Protocol | The E. coli cells BL21 CodonPlus (DE3)-RIPL (Stratagene) transformed with the plasmids pET22-MLuc164 and pET22-MLuc39 were cultivated with vigorous shaking at 37 °C in LB medium containing 200 g mL−1 ampicillin. When the culture reached an OD600 of 0.8–1.0, the luciferase synthesis was induced with 100 mg L−1 IPTG. After induction, the cultivation was continued for 3 h. Cells were harvested by centrifugation at 4 °C |

| Refolding Protocol | The inclusion bodies were dissolved in 6 M guanidine HCl, thereafter the equal aliquots were put (by drops) into refolding solutions in the ratio of 1:100, stored at 8 °C and bioluminescence was monitored. Refolding solution compositions are as follows: No. 1 - 1 mM GSH, 0.5 mM GSSG in buffer B; No. 2 - 5 mM GSH, 0.5 mM GSSG in buffer B; No. 3 - 0.5 mM GSH, 5 mM GSSG in buffer B; No. 4 - 5 mM cysteine, 0.5 mM cystine in buffer B; No. 5 - buffer B; No. 6 - buffer A; No. 7 - 20 mM Bis-tris propane HCl pH 6.0; No. 8 - 100 mM NaCl in buffer B; No. 9 - 1 M NaCl in buffer B; No. 10 - 0.1% Tween 20 in buffer B; No. 11 - 1% Tween 20 in buffer B, No. 12 - 10% glycerol in buffer B; No. 13 - 0.1% gelatine in buffer B; No. 14 - 0.01% gelatine in buffer B; No. 15 - 5 mM GSH, 0.5 mM GSSG, 0.1% Tween 20 in buffer B; No. 16 - 5 mM GSH, 0.5 mM GSSG, 0.1 M NaCl in buffer B. The luciferase activity was measured with a BLM 8801 luminometer (SKTB Nauka, Russia) by injection of 5 L of 10 M coelenterazine in methanol into cuvette containing 5 L luciferase sample and 500 L SM–buffer (50 mM Tris–HCl pH 7.5, 0.1 M NaCl, 10 mM MgSO4, 0.01% gelatine). In 12 h the samples were concentrated and analyzed by native PAGE. |
