Abstract excerpt
A cDNA of rat liver thioltransferase was cloned and then expressed using pMAL-c expression vector in Escherichia coli. Recombinant rat liver thioltransferase was expressed as a fusion protein with maltose-binding protein and then purified by amylose resin column chromatography to be homogeneity on 12.5% SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic analysis. The expressed proteins were shown as two bands at around 53...
