Cusabio N-terminal 10xHis-SUMO-tagged Recombinant

Abstract

The structural and functional genomics demands for large amounts of correctly folded soluble proteins in heterologous hosts have been aided by advances in the field of protein production and purification. Escherichia coli, the preferred host for recombinant protein expression, presents many challenges that must be overcome in order to overexpress heterologous proteins. These challenges include proteolytic degradation of target proteins, protein misfolding, poor solubility, and the need for good purification methodologies.

Gene fusion technologies have been able to enhance heterologous expression by overcoming many of these challenges. In this review, the ability of gene fusions to improve expression, solubility, purification, and decrease proteolytic degradation will be discussed. The main disadvantage, the cleavage of fusion proteins, will also be addressed. Attention will be given to the recently described N-terminal 10xHis-SUMO-tagged Recombinant fusion system and the improvements this technology has advanced over traditional gene fusion systems.

Other notes

Small volumes of N-terminal 10xHis-SUMO-tag and C-terminal Myc-tag Negative Control vials may occasionally become trapped in the product vial seal during shipping and storage.
