A recombinant human neuron-specific enolase (R-NSE), isolated from Escherichia coli, could not be used in an RIA system because of instability upon labeling. To apply R-NSE to RIA and to simplify the purification procedure, the N- and C-terminals of R-NSE were modified by tyrosine- and histidine-tagging, respectively. SY-NSE, containing one additional tyrosine residue, was obtained from both soluble and insoluble...
