Abstract

In this article we present a new and more accurate model for the prediction of the solubility of proteins overexpressed in the bacterium Escherichia coli. The model uses the statistical technique of logistic regression. To build this model, 32 parameters that could potentially correlate well with solubility were used. In addition, the protein database was expanded compared to those used previously. We tested several different implementations of logistic regression with varied results. The best implementation, which is the one we report, exhibits excellent overall prediction accuracies: 94% for the model and 87% by cross‐validation. For comparison, we also tested discriminant analysis using the same parameters, and we obtained a less accurate prediction (69% cross‐validation accuracy for the stepwise forward plus interactions model).

We have constructed three plasmid vectors for the expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion proteins using the following motif: (His) 6 -GFP-EK-X, where X represents chloramphenicol acetyl-transferase (CAT), human interleukin-2 (hIL-2), and organophosphorous hydrolase (OPH), respectively,
