Three native E. coli proteins-NusA, GrpE, and bacterioferritin (BFR)-were studied in fusion proteins expressed in E. coli for their ability to confer solubility on a target insoluble protein at the C-terminus of the fusion protein. These three proteins were chosen based on their favorable cytoplasmi

Production of heterologous proteins or parts thereof in different extra-cytoplasmic compartments (in the periplasm, outer membrane or extracellularly) of Escherichia coli offers multiple applications, for example, in vaccine development, immobilised enzymes and bioremediation. Nowadays, not only sur
Streptomycin or spectinomycin treatment of an E. coli strain, carrying the strR and spcR alleles on the chromosome and the wild-type (sensitive) alleles on the episome, selects for inactivation of the relevant sensitive allele. After Mu induced mutagenesis, in the absence of selection against extend
Phage MudII301 was used to isolate new periplasmic-leaky mutants of Escherichia coli K12 carrying an lkyB-lacZ gene fusion. The properties of strain JC2299 carrying the lkyB-2299 insertion mutation were identical to those of strain JC207 carrying the previously described lkyB-207 mutation. The LkyB-
