Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesInfluence of Tags on the Binding Affinity of Acyl-CoA Binding ProteinJizhong Han, Yunlong Sun, Yu Chen et al.Tagged fusion proteins are frequently employed for protein purification methods, but their effects on protein function and binding affinity are rarely studied. Here we expressed recombinant protein Acyl-CoA Binding Protein (ACBP) cloned from the full-length cDNA of Aspergillus oryzae and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. ACBP was expressed in Escherichia coli fused to a Maltose-Binding Protein (MBP) and Histidine-tag fusion. Recombinant ACBP was … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 23 Jan 2019 · 9,102 accessesView PDFCite
