DT 9404 AU Zhao LJ; Narayan O; Marion Merrell Dow Foundation, Department of Microbiology,; Molecular Genetics and Immunology, University of Kansas Medical; Center, Kansas City 66160-7424. SO Gene. 1993 Dec 31;137(2):345-6. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/94131309 AB This report describes the development of a gene expression vector that adds three features to the C-terminus of the putative synthesized protein: (1) a protein kinase A recognition domain allowing the protein to be radio-labeled in vitro, (2) an epitope marker for immunocharacterization of the protein with a commercial monoclonal antibody, and (3) a (His)6 block facilitating purification of the protein by metal chelating affinity chromatography. These features make it convenient to perform biochemical and functional analysis of the protein of interest.
