Glutathione S-Transferase

This Part encodes for the GST tag which serve as an enhancing tag and also serves in purification of expressed proteins in bacterial expression system.

Usage and Biology

Glutathione S-transferase (GST), used for affinity purification when fused to a gene of interest [1]. Glutathione-agarose affinity chromatography provides the quick, delicate, non-denaturing, and very selective purification of glutathione-binding sequence-containing proteins, such as Glutathione S-Transferase (GST), glutathione peroxidase, and glyoxalase. (DocS and Coh are fused with both GST and His tag to determine which one will give more yield and stability)
