Expression of BBa_K4202004

After chemical transformation of plasmid with this part, the transformed Bacillus subtilis WB600 were cultured in optimized LB and SMM medium, and obtained crude enzyme solution by centrifugation and ultrasonic disruption.Then we detected the molecular mass by SDS-PAGE and coomassie blue staining.
SDS-PAGE displayed bands of 37kDa and 74kDa for CA monomer and dimer, which didn' t exist in the control group(Fig.1-1).

Purification of BBa_K4202004

We added a 6X His tag to the N-terminus of CA on the vector, and the CA was purified by agarose-nickel column affinity chromatography. SDS-page analysis was performed on the flowing fluid, washing fluid and eluent during the purification of CA1 and CA2 by Ni-column. The eluate of CA1 and CA2 had two obvious bands at 37kDa and 74kDa, which were monomer CA and dimer CA, respectively. However, the Ni column had much non-specific protein binding, we can add a small amount of imidazole to reduce non-specific protein binding(Fig.1-2).
