pET28-His-GR
pET28-His-GR is a coding sequence that is used for expressing the ligand binding domain of the glucocorticoid receptor using Escherichia coli vector pET-28a(+).
This coding sequence will allow to express the LBD of Glucocorticoid Receptor from the vector including a his-tag for purification and attachment to an electrode for later ligand-binding measurements.
