Abstract excerpt
We have demonstrated that an active enzyme can be expressed on the surface of a bacteriophage. The gene encoding alkaline phosphatase from Escherichia coli was cloned upstream of gene 3, which encodes a minor coat protein of the filamentous bacteriophage, fd. A fusion protein of the correct size was detected from viral particles by Western blotting. Ultrafiltration confirmed that the enzyme fusion behaves as part...
