The formation of inclusion bodies (IBs)-amorphous aggregates of misfolded insoluble protein-during recombinant protein expression, is still one of the biggest bottlenecks in protein science. We have developed and analyzed a rapid parallel approach for matrix-assisted refolding of recombinant His,tagged proteins. Efficiencies of matrix-assisted refolding were screened in a 96-well format. The developed methodology allowed the efficient refolding of five different test proteins, including monomeric and oligomeric proteins. Compared to refolding in-solution, the matrix-assisted refolding strategy proved equal or better for all five proteins tested. Interestingly, specifically oligomeric proteins displayed significantly higher levels of refolding compared to refolding in-solution. Mechanistically, matrix-assisted folding seems to differ from folding in-solution, as the reaction proceeds more rapidly and shows a remarkably different concentration dependence-it allows refolding at up to 1000-fold higher protein concentration than folding in-solution.
