Design Notes

Compared to its analog part BBa_K2881003 (mMBD-eGFP-avi-His), this part consists of human MBD domain, which has a higher affinity toward methylated CpG site. However, it is relatively insoluble when expressed in E.coli BL-21, giving it a significantly lower yield. Compared to mMBD construct it is more suitable for small scale synthesis. Further improvement of the part includes other purification strategies such as GST fusion.
