Figure 2. In vivo protein ligations by the newly engineered split SspDnaE and NpuDnaE inteins.

Figure 2

(a) SDS-PAGE analysis of in vivo protein ligations by the newly engineered split SspDnaE inteins after purification with Ni-NTA. The combinations of SspDnaE-IntN and SspDnaE-IntC are indicated on the top of the lanes. (b) In vivo protein ligation by NpuDnaE intein with the newly engineered split site (NpuDnaE-IntN123/C15). Lane 1, before induction; lane 2, 1.5 hours after induction only with arabinose; lane 3, 1.5 hours after additional induction with IPTG; lane 4, 3 hours after induction with IPTG and arabinose; lane 5, elution from Ni-NTA column.
