Abstract excerpt
A hexa-histidine (6 x His) sequence was inserted into a surface loop of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) to develop a dual functional GFP useful for both monitoring and purification of recombinant proteins. Two variants (GFP172 and GFP157), differentiated by the site of insertion of the 6xHis sequence, were developed and compared with a control variant (GFPHis) having the 6xHis sequence at its C-terminus. The...
