Abstract excerpt
Streptavidin is a versatile molecule for many in vitro and in vivo applications. To optimize the production of the full-length streptavidin in a soluble and functional form via secretion using Bacillus subtilis as the expression host, three different strategies were used. These strategies include the construction of a synthetic streptavidin gene, the installation of a transcription terminator, and the use of a...
