PURIFICATION (Commentary)
ORGANISM
UNIPROT
LITERATURE
recombinant N-terminal His8-tagged FK506-binding protein-caspase-8 fusion protein mutants from Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) by nickel affinity and anion exchange chromatography
-
to near homogeneity
upon refolding and purification, mature caspase-8 yields the sequences S18PRE-VETD181 and L192SSP-FPSD286, for subunits A and B, respectively, the purified enzyme shows 85% of maximum activity
