MS2 Bacteriophage Capsid Protein with N-Terminal Histidine Tag

The MS2 capsid protein comprises most of the capsid of the MS2 phage, as well as MS2 phage-like particles (PLPs). A single MS2 capsid requires 178 copies of the capsid protein, as one copy of maturation protein A (BBa_K3738000), which is critical in allowing the capsid to bind to the cell and deliver its cargo. The design of this part was based of part BBa_K2683012, which is an MS2 capsid protein fused to a polyarginine tag cell-penetrating peptide on the N-terminus. This part has been modified from the original so as to have the polyarginine tag replaced with a histidine tag, to allow for purification as a monomer for capsid assembly in vitro.
