Various fermentation strategies in industrial biotechnology are applied to produce recombinant target proteins using Escherichia coli. These proteins are often expressed as inclusion bodies (IBs), resulting in a high purity, high stability, and high product titers. In state-of-the-art fed-batch processes, product formation takes place in a short period of time. Sterilization, cleaning, and biomass growth are time consuming steps and reduce the space-time yield. Thus, the interest in establishing continuous cultivations, facilitating higher space-time yields, has been increased in recent years. In this protocol, we provide information and a guide to set-up the production of recombinant proteins in fed-batch, as well as in chemostat continuous cultivations using E. coli.
