Objective: To obtain an optimized fermentation and purification process for high-level production of a recombinant human antibody ScFv-Fc fragment expression secreted in Pichia pastoris. Methods: The growth conditions of the transformant strain were optimized in 50 ml conical tubes including pH, methanol concentration and inducing time. The ScFv-Fe was purified using a two-step scheme: ammonium aulfate fractionation, protein A Sepharose. Results: SeFv-Fc production was found to increase with 0.5% (v/v) methanol concentration after 72 b induction. Protein production was also greatly affected by pH, resulting in higher yields at 5.2 pH value. The ScFv-Fc was purified more than 94% purity by using protein A Sepharose. Conclusions: The results provided a best process for expression and purification of functional recombinant human monoclonal antibody ScFv-Fc. It suggests a potential use of this antibody generating method by Pichia pastoris and indicates the potential of scFv-Fc fusion proteins as therapeutic candidates.
