Abstract
Polyhistidine (His) and Maltose Binding Protein (MBP) tagged proteins were successfully expressed in Escherichia coli. TEV protease cleavage and MBP-free cloning were pursued as strategies for obtaining pure, MBP-free protein variants for further research. A protocol for TEV cleavage was developed, and methods of subsequent purification or alternative cloning were explored.
