- Expression of the fusion gene is under the control of an IPTG -inducible T7 promoter (5).
- E. coli strains T7 Express (NEB #C2523H) or BL21 (DE3) and derivatives can be used as expression hosts.
- A pTXB1 derivative
- Ampicillin resistance
Description: pMXB10 Control Plasmid is a control plasmid for the IMPACT™ Kit (1,2). This plasmid carries the E. coli malE gene, encoding the maltose binding protein (MBP, 42 kDa)(3), fused in-frame to the coding region of the Mxe gyrase A intein-chitin binding domain (28 kDa) from pTXB1 (2,4,5). pMXB10 can be used to test plasmid transformation, cell culture, induction and purification procedures. After induction with 0.3 mM IPTG at 30°C for 3 hours (or 15°C for 12-16 hours), 100 ml of cells should yield 2-3 mg of a 70 kDa fusion protein. After chitin column purification and cleavage, approximately 1.5-2.0 mg of MBP is usually obtained. This double stranded vector is 7813 bp in length.
Source: pMXB10 Control Plasmid is isolated from an E. coli strain (r- m-) by a standard plasmid purification procedure.
Concentration: 0.2 mg/ml
