AimsOne of six heparin biosynthetic enzymes, cloned and expressed inEscherichia colias a soluble fusion protein, requires large‐scale preparation for use in the chemoenzymatic synthesis of heparin, an important anticoagulant drug.Methods and ResultsThe 6‐O‐sulfotransferase isoform‐3 (6‐OST‐3) can be conveniently prepared at mg/L levels in the laboratory by culturingE. colion Luria–Bertani medium in shake flasks and inducing with isopropylβ‐D‐1‐thiogalactopyranoside at an optical density of 0·6–0·8. The production of larger amounts of 6‐OST‐3 required fed‐batch cultivation ofE. coliin a stirred tank fermenter on medium containing an inexpensive carbon source, such as glucose or glycerol. The cultivation ofE. colion various carbon sources under different feeding schedules and induction strategies was examined. Conditions were established giving yields (5–20 mg g‐cell‐dry weight−1) of active 6‐OST‐3 with excellent productivity (2–5 mg l−1h−1).ConclusionsThe production of 6‐OST‐3 in a fed‐batch fermentation on an inexpensive carbon source has been demonstrated.Significance and Impact of the StudyThe ability to scale‐up the production of heparin biosynthetic enzymes, such as 6‐OST‐3, is critical for scaling‐up the chemoenzymatic synthesis of heparin. The success of this project may someday lead to a commercially viable bioengineered heparin to replace the animal‐sourced anticoagulant product currently on the market.
