AmilCP with 6x His-tag
This is a modification of the AmilCP part from the Uppsala 2011 team BBa_K592009. It has a 6x His-tag attached to the C-terminal end of the protein

Results of experiments
We aimed to improve the amilCP part from the distribution kit by adding a 6x his-tag to the C-terminal end of the chromoprotein. By doing this, it would theoretically be possible to purify both the amilCP part, and composite parts based on the his-tagged amilCP, using affinity chromatography.
It is clear that the expression of the blue/purple color is very strong. In conclusion the amilCP has been successfully modified by adding a His-tag without compromising the protein.
To test whether the amilCP with His-tag worked as expected, we purified two solutions of amilCP; one with His-tagged amilCP, and one with just amilCP.
From these results we can conclude that our his-tag purification of amilCP has worked.
