Abstract excerpt
Purification of mutant enzymes is a prime requirement of biophysical and biochemical studies. Our investigations on the essential Escherichia coli enzyme glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase demand mutant enzymes free of any wild-type protein contamination. However, as it is not possible to express noncomplementing mutant enzymes in an E. coli glnS-deletion strain, we developed a novel strategy to address these problems....
