Abstract excerpt
We have constructed an efficient expression plasmid for the leucine dehydrogenase gene previously cloned from Bacillus stearothermophilus. The recombinant enzyme was overproduced in Escherichia coli cells to a level of more than 30% of the total soluble protein upon induction with isopropyl beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside. The enzyme could be readily purified to homogeneity by heat treatment and a single step of...
