reesei have obtained the generally recognized as safe (GRAS) status by the U.S. It is suitable for large scale fermentation processes and has a long history of safe use in the enzyme production industry. The filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei is one of the main producers of lignocellulose degrading enzymes used by enzyme industries world-wide. The maximum expression in Pichia pastoris has been reported to be around 600 mg/L. Avoiding these disadvantages, IFNα-2b has been successfully expressed in several secreted systems. The best yield of IFNα-2b after refolding and purification was reported to be 3 g/L from E. The interferon expressed in E.coli often forms insoluble, misfolded inclusion bodies that need solublization and refolding steps that could affect the integrity of the refolded proteins. The yield of recombinant interferon from E.coli is by far higher than the other systems reported, but there are several drawbacks. Several host systems have been used for production of IFNα-2b including Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Bacillus subtilis, Pichia pastoris, Lactococcus lactis, Yarrowia lipolytica, and mammalian cells. It is approved around the world for the treatment of various diseases including chronic hepatitis C, chronic hepatitis B, hairy cell leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia, multiple myeloma, follicular lymphoma, carcinoid tumor, and malignant melanoma. Thus, low cost production of IFNα-2b is necessary to provide patients with affordable therapy. IFNα-2b is on the World Health Organization’s list of essential medicines. Interferons are considered as a primary line of defence for the host immune system against infectious agents and tumor progression. Interferon alpha-2b (IFNα-2b) is an important cytokine used for antiviral and anticancer therapy. Further strain development can be done to improve the production system by reducing protease activity and improving carrier protein cleavage. reesei strains with reduced protease secretion. High levels of IFNα-2b were produced using T. With addition of soybean trypsin protease inhibitor the level of production improved to 4.5 g/L, with an additional 1.8 g/L still bound to the secretion carrier protein. Deletion of the subtilisin protease slp7 and the metalloprotease amp2 has enabled production levels of IFNα-2b up to 2.1 and 2.4 g/L, respectively. We have identified two protease deletions that dramatically improved the production levels.

We have constructed a series of interferon alpha-2b (IFNα-2b) production strains with 9 protease deletions to gain knowledge for further strain development. Protease activity has been the major hindrance to achieving high production levels. reesei strains suitable for production of therapeutic proteins by reducing the secreted protease activity. “We joined Kehila because of the sense of community and openness to our mixed family.The filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei has tremendous capability to secrete over 100 g/L of proteins and therefore it would make an excellent host system for production of high levels of therapeutic proteins at low cost. This has been strongly manifested during the COVID-19 crisis, with the shabbat and seder sing-alongs online. “I have always been moved by the warmth and love that is generated by the community. “We joined Kehila not just for the Sunday School for our children, but because the adult education programs are uniformly fascinating, encouraging us all to think about what it means to be Jewish.” – Adav Noti Our philosophy is that finances should never be a barrier to membership in Kehila. In addition, Sunday School tuition is heavily discounted for members. Membership fees for the 2022-2023 year are:ĭues include High Holidays tickets for adults. Kehila Chadasha strives to keep dues as low as possible (e.g., we do not own a building). Annual weekend retreat for adults and kids – with learning, playing, good food, and the great outdoors.High Holidays services, including children’s and teen programs.Creative holiday celebrations including Sukkot, Hanukkah, Purim, Passover and more.Monthly Shabbat onegs (community dinners with singing and activities).Weekly adult education lectures and conversation (history, social justice, the arts) coffee and schmoozing Sunday morning music and Sunday School classes.
