We transformed a pET28a plasmid with lacZ into E. coli BL21 (DE3) and induced lacZ expression by IPTG. After the verification of successful expression of lacZ, we used the HIS tag on lacZ when expressed on pET28a plasmid to purify the lacZ protein by nickel column. We obtained the purified lacZ protein which is about 110KD by elution with 250mm imidazole (Figure 2).

The results showed that both reactions could detect lacZ, and the bright yellow color reaction of ONPG was more obvious from the naked eye. At the same time, we confirmed that the optimum reaction temperature of lacZ with ONPG is 37℃ (Figure 4A). And the reaction can be quantified by detecting the absorbance at 420nm (Figure 4B).
